Started the spring with a heel spurr.
Early August I injured my ribs working on my boat.
This month I stubbed my toe and developed an ingrown toenail.
Of course I let it go too long until it got infected and sore as hell.
Today I went to the doctor for relief. He had me lay on the exam
table and proceeded to jamb his scissors between the nail and toe so
he could cut a v-shaped wedge along one side and rip it out. He
didn't warn me he was going to do the operation without freezing.
After, he informed me that the freezing doesn't take well with
infection present.
Now I'll be wearing sandles for a few days and expect every fifth
person I encounter to step on or stub my toe. Wonder if I can get my
steel toed shoes on?


Sorry to hear about your toe - I broke my left big toe this Spring and
it wasn't pretty.

If it helps you out any, one of my tenants has a black lab who dug a
tunnel/hole half way to the other street which I promptly fell into
this afternoon while cutting the grass which threw me off my lawn
tractor causing me to land on my bad shoulder which is to be operated
on in November and now hurts like hell.

Thanks Tom....that picks me up.
It always helps to hear of someone in worse shape. ;-)

We could form a new singing group...The Klutzes Three. Wait...can either
of you sing? I can't.


Funny you should ask. I used to sing Barbershop both chorus and
quartet when I was in high school. We had a big SPEBSQSA chapter in
town and most of us garage band types (there were three popular garage
bands in town) sang acapela for various functions and it was a natural
way to train with folks who really knew how to sing.

It was a ton of fun, I'll tell you what.

However I lost my singing voice after straining my vocal cords
screaming at a group of putzes during a training session when they
really annoyed me something fierce when I was in the service.

I actually miss it to tell the truth.

I was a member of the Basilica boys Choir for a number of years...but
after my voice changed I went downhill.
