I drove my wifes Corolla around the block yesterday with the parking brake slightly on - did I harm the brakes? This morning I thought the brakes seemed a little soft (not able to skid very easily), but then after they warmed up slightly, they seemed to be ok.... Comments or concerns? Thanks!

I would not be concerned. If you feel a vibration in the rear after applying the brakes, I would have them checked, but just driving around the block should not hurt them.
