Jimmie,
You're welcome and thanks for being pleasant and accepting and the like too... But It still Doesn't answer the "Chuk" question for me, us now does it. Anybody out there know this one? Who was this guy? A Sabres, Lightning Fan or the real deal or even another guy with the same interesting family name?

BTW, as a not so medical person in this AC Community your mentioned something interesting in passing that I would love an explaination of: What is "Snuff Box" arthritis of the thumb? I ask because at times I wonder if this old guitar player and hockey stick holder might be experiencing something similar now that I too have recently crossed over the great 50 divide, in the game of life... (Mongo just pawn in game of life....) Thanks much...

Paul

Paul--thanks for opening up about your problems and the excellent advice about the treatment of UC--hang in there.
Steven--appreciate your feedback on the perspective on solo practice--we had a few inches of snow here on the weekend so my daughter wanted to make an igloo--we got about 1/2 way done but couldn't quite get a roof on, then I felt for the first time snuff box arthritis in my right thumb the next day--uughgghghh
