    This was one of my personal favorite filks …

    (TUNE: “Holding Out For A Hero”, Bonnie Tyler)

    Got a superhero’s leg, its owner wasn’t amused …
    Got a politician’s brain, it’s fresh ’cause it’s never been used …
    Got a Navy pilot’s eyes, got a good prizefighter’s hands …
    There’s just one more part I need, just one thing that my corpus demands!

    I need an elbow!
    I’m looking out for the joint between my shoulder and wrist!
    On which I can depend,
    That can flex and extend,
    That won’t wobble or buckle or twist;
    I need an elbow!
    A good reliable elbow’s at the top of my list!
    I can use it for nudgin’
    Or even to bludgeon
    A foe when I’ve worn out my fist;
    Worn out my fist …

      Ha! I can understand why this is a fav…

      So the recruiter dude wasn’t done with that leg yet? There are nice prosthetics around nowadays.
