Hi, First timer here.

Decided at last to make a concerted effort to keep up with my 12 year old son.
Will my fingers ever be able to master these left hand contortions????

lionhound,
You're very lucky to be able to share a common interest with your son, enjoy it, the first thing you know they're all grown up and usually off doing there own thing.
Glad to have you aboard.

Welcome Lionhound Don't worry...kid fingers are made out of rubber...adults just need more time to limber up and bend like they do!

I have 3 kids (16, 14 and 7) that started after me and I swear the older 2 of them caught up and blew by me before I knew what happened...its sad really.


If everything has a point, well then I must have one, too.
