Since I have very few health problems and therefor have little to report, I thought I would at least tell you about a critical moment when I was in my early thirties and very vain. I was riding my bicycle barefoot and hit a rise in the pavement, creating a tent effect. Each foot slammed down into the concrete, impacting the big toes. Aside from the excruciating pain, the nail beds were skewed and damaged and the nails came out.an inch thick I survived the accident, but the nails grew back in very thick and skewed to the side. Very unpleasant to see. I was embarrassed to be seen barefoot. My doctor referred to a surgeon. He was a tiny, sardonic Japanese. He looked at my feet and asked, "What's the problem?" "My shoes hurt my toes." "Get bigger shoes," he said. Sheepishly, I admitted that I was embarrassed when I was naked.

"If they are look ing your feet when you are naked, you got a bigger problem than you think," he said.

I think I have beautiful feet, but nobody notices them.

HEY JACK: I am so sorry you had that episode and it must have been

very very painful for you.

I was reading it again, and realized that if your toenails were that

thick, some pro football team should have hired you later in life as

their " kicker " . You probably could have done a nifty job.

I LOVE YOU THIS DAY
