Been living here in the "Ice Belt" for 12 years now. One of my biggest fears was slipping on ice and getting hurt bad, well folks I got my sigs on that line of my PARS. Did a swan dive on Wed of this week, broke many bones in my left wrist (dom hand) and smacked my head, knocking me out cold and getting 6 stitches. Just got out of hospital yesterday (3 days worth) I think I will be faster and better now. They discarded lots of bone chips, gave me two long scars, one on each side of my wrist, and enough titanium plates and screws to build a storage shed in my back yard. There is a silver lining to all of this mayhem, Time off during the holidays and the miracle of being on the clock when I took my dive. Long story short, watch your step folks- It could be your last!

It is great to hear from you Joe. I have been thinking about you from time to time and wondering how you are surviving this weather. Sorry to hear of your fall. I hope that you take advantage of your time off and are able to use your computer to some degree. I hope that you have a nice Christmas at home and take the time to enjoy it. I see that you are able to type which is a good thing.

Have you heard from Walt Sirman for he is being hit with that Ice storm too.

Has Walt Moir checked in? For he was in the middle of that storm which hit Oregon a few weeks ago. It would be nice to here from him.
