Oh thanks Derick for making me a smelly foot!! :'(      But alas I will 
not be envious of you, a hand, for although I stink and am prone to 
fungus and you can grasp thinks tightly in feats (ha there is a little 
pun) of strength, you cannot go anywhere without me.  The Body of Christ 
(aka the Church) at it's best.

Peace,
Steve
