So when I awoke, my right thumb was misbehaving.....now I've had arthritis long enough to recognize the telltale signs........a reddish skin color and a swollen knuckle... so I've had the thumb dunking in a glass full of ice for awhile.......and it's still sore but has loosened up a whole lot....
  So I tried to figure out what  have I done this time, and couldn't come up with any thing I've done recently......so had to think back......and did come up with what might have been the genesis of the problem.....so travel back with me about 49 years ago in time, when I was playing small college soccer.
  So we weren't playing FIFA rules, it was free substitution, but at the start of the game you had to name your 4 subs, always one of the subs was your backup goalie......but you always had one of the subs or a starter who could play goalie in a pinch......that was me........the "disaster goalie"......and I think what they meant was it would be a disaster if I was needed.....
  So I was playing goalie in practice.......and one of our best strikers, got away from the defenders and rocketed a shot, low to the far right corner......I dove got my finger tips on the ball, and deflected it around the goal post, and out.........great play.......but there was a problem......
  All 8 fingers and both thumbs impact with the 4x4 goal post......So i get up I've got my hands under my arm pits.....and I'm watching stars and colors exploding in my eyes and mind.......
(one thing I can always depend on is my sense of humor
  Coach comes over, quote he "let me see your hands".....quote I "not until you look on the ground and tell me none of them are laying on the ground"
