Yeah, I probably do. I still remember a lot of my Marine Corps vocabulary. I have to bite my tongue a lot, also.

Glad you are felling better!

They installed some titanium screws and a plate. I don.t think a magnet will stick ;)The doc said it was a serious break. I have to keep it elevated to control the swelling, but it hurts more today than when it originally happened.

Thanks Rick; The doc said everything went well. He even fixed the carpal tunnell syndrone while he was in there. Kind of a rwo for one deal.

Steve, glad your home safe and sound and once again on the mend.

It is great that the operation went well. Any idea if you will be well enough to travel to the rally as we discussed.

Your weekend nurse should be able to help you. Tell her we said hi.

It all gets better from here on. Hang in there, Steve.

Geeze I hope he has sence to not ride all busted up... Get well first Ring.....

That finger I broke is still a little problem because i could not stop working, and when I crashed in Aug 05 they didn't heal till Feb 06 because i couldn't stop riding and or working.

If you mung around with joints they will be slow to heal and not heal as fast as they might.

I think someone should recieve HD Broken Wings fer this though.....

I am still not caught up on these threads, and don't know what happened yet exactly. So far my best guess is a rear tire blow out.

No Bill, I had a bad speed wobble that threw me off the bike. I won't be riding anything very soon. they installed five screws and a plate, and I can see three of the screws under the cast.
