<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Calibri><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>I
have to have shoulder surgery on December 19<sup>th</sup>. Despite the
fact that I was never a big league pitcher, I apparently have managed to tear
my rotator cuff, and have some unusual bone growth and bursitis in the
shoulder/arm joint that needs to be removed. I will lose the use of my
right arm for several weeks, if not longer and am being told not to look for a
miraculous recovery, that it may be a year before I’m back to a good arm
again. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
