The good news is, I got my cast off today, and was fitted for a much

OMG. For playing such a tough guy on the internet, you don't know to
*never* tuck your thumb inside your fingers when making a fist? You'll
break your thumb every time.

You ball your fingers into a tight fist, and tuck your thumb *outside* the fingers tightly.

I guess they don't teach that in liberal arts skewl. Make a note of it. :-)

Another informationless moron. I didn't break my thumb and I didn't say I
did. Yet another reason to not take rec.boats seriously.

"was fitted for a much

Supports your thumb and its pieces and parts. Uh huh.

Oh, and the only thing sub rosa is how you actually broke your hand. That's a secret, eh? :-



Sprains there, according to my doctor and occupational therapist. Bone
fracture on other side at wrist healing nicely. No secret...I hit a guy
*really hard*. Got almost full movement back outside of soft cast. My
doc wonders if I broke the other guy's jaw. Dunno.

Heh. A cast for a sprain, and no cast for a fracture.

You're a hoot, old man.

I'm betting the basement stairs.



The original cast for the fracture came off today. I'm casted up again,
but in a lighter model.

BTW, an "occupational therapist" comes after the cast comes off. You know, when there's no longer a cast, and you can actually *do* therapy.

Heh, heh.
