Here's the thing... I learned this a long time ago when I learned to ride bicycles.

When you have a handle/stick, you DON'T need to rest all your weight on it. In fact, you get more control if you keep the weight off the stick and use your muscles (rather than gravity and a shove) move the stick where you want it to go.

In other words, hold your hand at the level it reaches all the buttons, and fly with your hand there. You don't need to rest it on the ledge. I've done this with joysticks in the past. It works.

Would the fact that you sit on the Los Angeles telephone book to see the monitor be an indication that there might have been a problem here? As a confirmation of the prior thoughts- go to Home Depot & get some silicon pads to glue onto the keys.

McGyver would first deep-freeze his fingers using an old refrigerator compressor. Then he would use a kitchen knife to chop them off, extend them with organic chewing gum which he would harden again with the refrigerant.

Macguyver is played out, he doesn't have the ability to comprehend AH an x52's....now the A-team on the other hand would use sheet metal, bailing wire, and welders to create an armored stick that will save the day in no time flat...however the A-team(for being crack comandos, when I say crack I mean CRACK) cannot seem to shoot fer s**t...that always bugged me, for a group of guys that were so called super soldiers they were the bigest bunch of idiots ever assembled. B.A. was tough as heck and I pity the fool that says otherwise..... yeah I'm pretty effin lame, and buzzed. dude If your new ultra stick is too big for your hand then send it my way, my hands are rediculously large(dear god that sounded dirty) shutting up now.(cue A-Team rheme song)
