HOWTO
if anyone gets stuck like this by the way, a great way to type with your feet is to hold your second toe down between your big toe and your third toe. You then get the dexterity of your big toe combined with a smaller pad.
I can manage a good few WPM like this.
The best use yet...

I promise I haven't been drinking

Missed a trick, should have been a footnote.... Kill me now.
I'd be stuffed.
I find my password hard enough to type into my EeePC using both hands -- never mind trying to do it with my toes.

whilst bound to the bed by her wrists?
I'll bet she's popular.
Popular....

..... not to mention the tricks she could perform with her feet!!
Even more popular....

There's video of women like this on the internet, I think it would fall into the NSFW catergory of links though.
I've seen this sort of thing before
But it was from the webcam's point of view.
Excuse me, I just need to pop upstairs for a mo'.
Sir
Well impressed by this, especially when she typed 'AMBULANCE UNNECESSARY"
I'll forgive the typo this once, given the circumstances :)
“We struggled for some amount of time. He hit me on the head with the gun.”
That's what my girlfriend said.
On a serious note, well done Amy.
OK, I a suspicious bastard...

Quoth the article
Hilton added that his quick-thinking girlfriend held onto her computer because although the intruder was "was interested in her laptop ... she said there was a way to trace it so he shouldn’t take that".

Err. He was interested in the lappy, but was persuaded to think better of it.

Jeez Colin. It's Friday, it's light hearted (except for the woman involved perhaps). Are you a permanent pedant? Bet you're the life and soul at the Christmas fuddle ...
Tsk.
Searching for booty?
A booty isn't that hard to find. Maybe he should have rolled her over first.

Wits?
On the one hand she does sound like she kept her cool and used her noodle. However, she tried to fight the guy with the gun... Not so smart, she got off light with a bonk to the noggin.
I am suspecting an odd combination of clever lady, acrobatic with suicidal tendencies.
Maybe...

I'm somewhat intrigued to know howcome you're so skilled with toe-typing....
Useful Lady
I have my partner practising these moves already - you never know when they could become useful...
The woman deserves some kind of reward I think.
