Pronunciation: san dal us

Sentence: Penny Loafer had no sole. She bought every pair of shoe in sight, whether she could afford them or not. She could not toe the line until she was strapped. Her boyfriend, Spike Oxford, thought she talked with a brogue and was about to give her the boot, as her behaviour became more sandalous. But Penny realized that if she pumped herself up, became less of a sneaker and held her tongue, she could over come this disease that Dr. Scholl specialized in. She was moved by the good doctor's words..."When you leave your footsteps in the sand, make sure they are not the mark of a heel!"

Etymology: Scandalous (giving offense to moral sensibilities and injurious to reputation) & Sandals (a shoe consisting of a sole fastened by straps to the foot)
