Huhnting For The One-Armed Man
Those of us old enough to remember The Fugitive TV series will remember that Dr. Kimble blamed a one-armed man for the murder of his wife. As an effective one-armed man at the moment, I can see why this was regarded as a lousy claim. There are so many things you can't do with only one working hand: tying shoelaces (I now have elastic shoelaces), buttoning and zipping pants, getting the top shirt button identified and buttoned. Even opening a tightly sealed bottle of Coke requires some assistance, Put the bottle in a drawer and close it on the bottom, then unscrew the lid.
Do you remember that the actor who played the one-armed man was actually one-armed? See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Raisch

ReplyDeleteJust keep working on it, no matter how hard, because if you stop, that's where you get stuck.
Having had a disabled wing on occasion (and being left handed) there are many things.
