Frank, I think you meant to write black thumb... brown thumb conjures
up entirely different gardening. hehe

This is what I meant but I don't know what the difference between black and
brown thumb as I couldn't find "black thumb" in the dictionary.

Ok, I'm learning. Black thumb, brown thumb, green thumb and even "shorts in
a twist."


This is a favorite dictionary...
