Thank you, Tony Myers :) Seems like Uncle Wiggly was what the woman's first husband called her sprained ankle in the short story by that name. It was a device to help her laugh at her pain, and I think her loss of the ability to do so was the source of her angst in the story. It seems fitting that Uncle Wiggly would be a cartoon character. But yeah, it'd be real interesting to read some of the comics and see what went on :) Jim ___________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.
