The Observer wades into the fetishist pool this week, conducting further research into the Great Foot-Rub Caper of '06 that the Gutter blew the lid off just before summer hit. If you don't recall, basically a man named "Marcus" keeps setting up meetings at architecture firms to discuss renovating his apartment. He claims he's a devout Buddhist who must perform a foot-blessing ceremony on all the men in the office. He gets his jollies, leaves, and is never heard from again. The Observer's Felix Gillete tried to track down Marcus, but was unsuccessful. He does, however, relay half a dozen or so Marcus run-ins around town. Mildly disturbing, and stinky. Very very stinky. Only in New York, kids...
