I think we came back just in time. What with JohnH blowing kisses to
Bert and Flatulent Jim in a tizzy over his hardtop camper........ who
knows where this group was heading.

Just in time for what, dung beetle?

To show some direction. To try and get this newsgroup focused back on its
original purpose.
You do boat, don't you?

To you and the rest of the guys, Have a fun, safe weekend and I hope
loogie's kid recovers with no residual damage. I'll be busy reloading

What kind of camper?

The kind you load onto a boat, or is this new rec.campers?

Thanks, the orthopedic surgeon was pretty confident there would be no
permenent nerve damage and she would regain full functionality.

Thanks. It's going to be awhile, the right arm both the ulna and
radius bones are splintered pretty good. The did surgery on both arms
to make sure they were set exactly right, the orthopedic surgeon
doesn't foresee any residual affects.

Another thing that works well is to use your air compressor to blow air
down the cast. Whatever you do, don't put powder down there! And, don't let
her try to scratch with a coat hanger. That's a good way to get an

Just be aware that air can damage you as well. *If you decide to do
this, use low air pressure (10-20 psi) and a safety nozzle. *It is
possible, and actually pretty easy, to blow high pressure air under
the skin. *You definitely do *not* want to do that. *It will ruin your
day.

It's all coming back now! We had a full shop when I was a kid and my
brother took a nozzle and put it up to my neck to scare me. He let
that thing go and it tore my skin, then blew air inflating a space a
little larger than a marble. What happened is it seperated the skin
from the meat and man, did that hurt! That turned into the biggest
meanest looking blodd blister you ever saw!

And if that had been close to a blood vessel you could have ended up
with an air embolism and dead. *Compressed air is not a toy.- Hide quoted text -

Loogy, I mentioned your daughter's accident in Chuck's Place. Hope you
don't mind.

Does she like "Cajun Power Sauce"as a little 'pick me up' to go in her
collard greens? If so, I'll send her a bottle! Just email me an address.
I'm not like some of the folks around here, thinking you'd use it for
yourself!

Cajun Power Garlic can cure anything, the only thing that comes close is
Tusin. (If you haven't seen Chris Rock's riff on Tusin, you need to
check it out).

Yeah, I know. Some people think that I'd selfishly take something
meant for my ambulatory daughter and use it for myself. I tried to
tell said person that she wanted her T-shirt black, extra
large.........so she could sleep in it!!
Just kidding, thanks man. Tell ya what, you learn quickly went the
crap hits the fan who is your friend and who is not, or at least you
understand who cares, which is great and humbling at the same time.

Yesterday my 13 year old daughter, the greatest thing in my life, took
a spill over the handlebars of her mountain bike. I was on my way

there, both arms, hands are dangling uselessly, little girl in shock,
but also in pain, get her to ER. She broke BOTH bones in BOTH arms
just above the wrist bad enough to require surgery and pins. Seeing
her in that shape on the way to ER hurt my heart and soul more than
most can imagine. Except for those that are as close to a daughter as
I am her. I'm sad..... She's home today, quite the trooper. No arm
movement for two weeks, then pins out and shorter casts. So much for
our poolside and lakeside summer. I'm sad.....

My wishes for a prompt and complete recovery. And then for everything to
be back to normal for you and your family.

Thanks man. Tom just showed me a link to an external fixator, which I
think she has under all that wrap. Now I'm freaked again!

Got that right. you always feel that catastrophy always happens to
"somebody else" but the wake up call is that one day, you ro your's
may be the "somebody else"

Amazing how when this happens you find out who is really who.

I'm experiencing that myself.

Most humbling, indeed!
