Damn that sucks. I just sent him a package this week which will arrive today.

Is he ok? I have known people to die from this sort of injury?
-
I'm pretty sure he is ok. He just said he's gonna have a lot of down time.
-
I think I can manage to find a cigar or two to drop in the mail. For the record Ray, this will not be the payback I know you are fearing from me. That day will come, just not yet...

Pm to you sir.

So who else has broken their leg besides glock? I did. Hurts like a sumbidge. Here's my story:
We bought a 2003 BMW R1200CLC motorcycle for our anniversarey. Hence named her "Annie". First serious trip was down the Blue Ridge Parkway in October 2003. Stopped overnight at a Motel Patel in Waynesboro. Motored on down the frosty Parkway happy as clams. Down in southern VA, we spotted a sign saying "Sweet Annie's Gulch". Had to stop and take a pick of Annie in her gulch. Pulled to a top on the grassy shoulder. Grass turned out to be slippery as deerguts on a doorknob. Soon as the RedHead began to dismount, why, Annie started to slide sideways. Toward the gulch. I stuck my boot down in the grass to try and stop her. First bike I ever owned with floorboards. Floorboard caught my ankle. I heard a SNAP! Busted.
A couple Samaritans stopped and lifted Annie upright. I hopped over and threw my leg over. No choice but to ride her out. Down the BRP we puttered. Leg began to swell until it was so tight in my boot that I lost feeling. Kept blowing off the floorboard and I would have to lift my leg by the pant and set it back aboard. By and by, maybe 40 miles along, we saw a blue sign with a white H. Pulled off to find that hospital. First time I had to put my foot down it was like standing on jello. I had nuthin. Over we went again.
Another good Samaritan stopped. Emerald was the cleaning lady at Galax Hospital (a wee clinic the size of this office). Two tykes in her car. Took us to the hospital and dropped us off. The hospital orderly told me that the bone setter could cross the mountain pass next Tuesday if they called for him; or else they could put me in an air cast and we could go see a doctor at home. I voted for home. By the time we were done there, Emerald had rented a motel room, leased a truck, arranged a crew to load the bike on the truck next day, arranged for a farmer to hide the bike in his barn overnight, scored us dinner, and was waiting at the front door of the hospital -- here's the key -- with both tykes still in the car learning a valuable lesson from their mother.
You can bet those tykes got presents from us every Christmas for years.
So what's your leg breakin story?

Well that sure beats my story webmost, silly me thought I was 27 instead of 37 and went up the ladder of the 20 foot barn roof. While up there replacing the tin shingles on the corner where the wind storm had damaged, about 6 of them I stepped backwards and the bottom of my carhart's snagged the edge of the shingle corner and next thing u know over I went. I guess I'm lucky I didn't break my my neck or on the way down missed the wire going up to the roof. Lesson learned.

webmost:So who else has broken their leg besides glock? I did. Hurts like a sumbidge. Here's my story:
I have and have some advice for the younger guys- listen to your doctor.
My break happened from two steps up on a stepladder putting in a widow. Got the window in, stepped backwards assuming I was on the first step - nope. Fell backwards and broke ankle in two places. Worst part was, my neighbor was having a reunion, so this was witnessed by about 50 people.
I popped up as if nothing happened, and went inside my house, where I promptly collapsed onto the floor, unable to get up.
I got the the hospital, then the orthopedist to get it put back together, but was so pissed at myself, I hated looking at the cast and crutches. What did I do? cut the cast off myself two days later. I cant describe the look on my wife's face when she walked in on that show. I was in the tub, soaking the fiberglass cast to soften it enough to get my tin snips through it. Pretty sure that is when she knew she married an idiot.
Fast forward 15 years later, I have 2 kids who play hockey, and I cant get a skate on to play with them, I can barely ski, and it hurts to stand for any length of time.
Guess how much sympathy my wife has for me when I get out of bed every morning walking like Ozzy Osbourne? -
