    When I caught Josh's bit on CNN, I had to drop by and check it out...so glad I did

    I have been to alot of site's that did'nt feel right from the start, and I finally gave up a while back, what I seen so far is quite refreshing, oh I know there will the wanna be"s and the "devotee's", and the pervs, but I've already gotten some good laughs at some of your comments on the subject.

    In the 47 years I've had this disadvatage, I'm sure I over compensated...hell I know I did, and yup at 50 ya start feelin it, when I see you young whipper snapper's hoppin around on one leg ..it hurts to watch, I did it (still do) and I've had two knee ops. and the doc said the third would be ugly, but damn how I hate those crutches, betcha know what I mean..its a hell of a lot easier to hop acrossed the room than to drag the cripstiks out and bang into furniture, catch a tip in the rug...ooppps ..poor kitty, so thats how I got my nickname "Onestep"..

    over the years I've acually had some fun with it, like in grade school turning my foot around backwards and freakin the teachers out, and classmates roll with laughter,...ya ever see a drunk,one legged man..hold up an intoxicated nun ???...yup I sure did !!, ya sure there have been laughs at my expense, but I have also had people tell me how much I've inspired them, livin life to its fullest and treating my "disadvantage" as a mere annoyance....and to this day..I DO NOT SWIM AROND IN CIRCLES....dammit
