Sighs and Hallelujahs Stories and thoughts about the adventures of life without arms

The Dumbest Question

How's this for one of the dumbest questions you could ask a guy without arms?

"So, how do I shake your hand?"

You don't, you idiot!

Unbelievably, I've heard this question a few different times as of late. One guy wanted to shake my foot, while another wanted to shake my shoulder.

Today I looked the questioner in the eye and responded, "You don't." I think that caught him a bit off guard!

How in the world do I answer that? Have at it, readers. I'm soliciting your input.
