Jimmy:  Some of us know about arthritis.  Mine is in my knees.  Maybe if I lost some weight, I wouldn't be so miserable.  Let us know how the new medicine works out.  I hope that you can still tie and do all the things you want to do.  Keep us posted.  I always enjoy your banter and comments on the list.  Take care.   Lrry Johnson   >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 12/11/01 07:45AM >>> Bob, I'm sorry, but I have to drop out of the Monster Midge Swap. Not because I want to, but because of my arthritic thumbs.  I tried tying some "Fisherman's Curses"  last nite, but just can't handle anything that small.  They look terrible and I'm not going to send those scraggly things and disappoint everyone,  I had a hard enough time tying those size 8 Gunney Sacks for Ian's Nymphomania Swap.  I'm taking some new joint medicine that will hopefully take the pain away long enough so that I can finish my Skykomish Sunrise Steelhead flies for Rob's Steelhead II.  To all of you, please don't think unkindly of me.
