TT,

I'll be in the city tomorrow if you need some in-person lessons, its really not that hard at all. I think you can work around the hand strength issues, which may be why the diagrams arent helping.

TT--

I learned to use chopsticks a long time ago in spite of being the world's most uncoordinated klutz. Nowadays I am having trouble with my hands (especially the right one), a combo of arthritis in the joints and a repetitive stress issue from computer overuse. Some days I can't even hold a can of coke in my right hand. I have the devil's own time opening many kinds of packaging. But I can still use my chopsticks. So there's hope.

I have so much [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] for LOL! Once again you just made my day. I have days that are similar with my left hand, I lost total feeling from my index finger to the left part of the palm after the accident for a few months, but sometimes it returns for short periods. Good to know I'm not hopeless, just a klutzy spazz when it comes to chopsticks.

Give me a head's-up next time you are in Vegas. There's a very good sushi place a couple of blocks from my abode, and we can klutz it up together and schmooze about life on St. Mark's Place....
