Let me see what I can find. I lost a lot of pictures when my last computer died. If I can get my cam working on linux I'll show you how I light cigarettes.

I've got four pics to share. The first is an up close of my wheelchairs controls, the second is another view of the chair on the day I got it. The third shows me on the phone (I do everything on the floor at home) and the fourth is my bed. Sorry, it's all I have right now.

EDIT: The pics aren't in the right order, but you can figure it out.

Where can I upload an .ogg vid to show here?

Smoking will stunt your growth!

Was your mom on any drugs while she was pregnant that might have cause this? You look to young to be a Thalidomide baby.

GOY James for being so open.

Nothing. When I was born I was rushed from Cape Cod Hospital to Boston where they did a shit load of tests and could find nothing wrong with me (besides the obvious), and no cause. I'm a mystery and shit.

James, can you swim at all? Or have you ever been in a pool with a life vest on?

I can float and even tread water well. When I lived near the ocean I snorkeled a lot. I have trouble propelling myself through the water though.
