Via Point of Law, I see that maybe ankles don't exist. Or at least that's the argument by Texas podiatrists (who are not medical doctors) seeking the right to operate on ankles — excuse me, on upper feet:

"You don't have an ankle," said Mark Hanna, a lawyer for the Texas Podiatric Medical Association. "The foot actually includes the ankle. If you took the foot off the leg, there is nothing lying there that's the ankle."

So if I'm clumsy today, that's why.
