When I first "met" you, it was as an articulate blogger, whose words struck a bell and resonated soundly. <br /><br />Only later did I learn you were an amputee. It was a kind of "oh, that's interesting" factoid. It didn't change who you were to me one bit. (Not meant to be dismissive or anything. I dated a lady years ago who had a strawberry birthmark on her face. I literally couldn't see it, most of the time (colorblindness has it's plusses). When I finally did notice it, it was more of an "oh, really, I hadn't noticed" moment. And we went on from there. It affected how she viewed herself much more than how I viewed her.)<br /><br />As time has passed and you've had occasion to remark on some of the challenges you have to face, my respect and admiration for you has only gone up. You rocked before, and you rock even moreso now.PPPPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13586972771335722631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32278169577563552.post-60621459949047524502010-06-25T13:55:50.525-04:002010-06-25T13:55:50.525-04:00And after I posted with my little "joke"...And after I posted with my little "joke" I remembered that the expression is "short arm inspection".

You're whole with or without the sinister parts.<br /><br />Whether parts are missing, defective, or one side suffers from painful & annoying gremlins is irrelevant.<br /><br />It's the total package that counts. Even with a piece missing I'd say you're more whole than many folks are right out of the box.<br /><br />Hell, I can relate and I have all my parts.Mike W.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03425962910696301026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32278169577563552.post-73267401766717370052010-06-25T11:54:02.046-04:002010-06-25T11:54:02.046-04:00Fancy legs aren't just for people.
