I will write later about our weekend trip to the Miami Fair, but I first wanted to share the following email with you.  It arrived in my mailbox under the heading "How Smart is Your Right Foot?" 

I opened it thinking that it was some sort of inspirational poem about my right foot but it was something a little different.  I have to wonder what kind of friend (Judy Forjan) would send this email to someone who can hardly move her right foot in the first place (!), but I will let it go.  

Try it!  Here it is . . .

"You have to try this please; it takes 2 seconds. I could not believe this!!!  It is from an orthopedic surgeon and will boggle your mind. This is sure to keep you trying over and over again to see if you can outsmart your foot but you can't.  It's pre-programmed in your brain!

1. Without anyone watching you (they will think you are GOOFY!!) and while sitting at your desk in front of your computer, lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles with it.

2. Now, while doing this, draw the number '6' in the air with your right hand. Your foot will change direction.

Isn't it weird that this simple task is such a challenge?  Send it to your friends to frustrate them too..."
