You have to let us know if your wife has a problem tying because of the numbness. I haven't known you that long but I feel as if I have and I'll be d**ned if a friend of mine needs flies and I don't tie him some. Just let me know what you like to fill your box with and I'll have them on the way before you know it. My father-in-law has arthritis in his hands and can't tie at all, and I've been keeping him stocked up ever since I convinced him of the error of his ways and weaned him off of worms.

Subject: [VFB] "MIDGES" Jimmy's Poem For Bob & Rene's Mega Midge Site

Okay, Rene.  Couldn't come up with a good QUOTE,
so I wrote a Poem.

            "MIDGES"

I can't see'em, but I can hear 'em
and I sure as hell can feel 'em.
I feel 'em when they get in my eyes
I feel 'em when they buzz my ears.
I feel 'em, the fluttering tiny flies,
being washed away by my tears.
Yes, I feel 'em, but these hands can't tie 'em.
Alas, my friends,  I'll just buy 'em!

P.S.  My wife Jody's gonna try to tie for me, but she often has numbness in her hands.
         So, we'll see.
