No, just battle scars from years past.  It is sometime painful to get as old as I am. 

Wanna see my toes??  :o

Oh my! That is just precious! (and just a little sick and weird, but I guess that is what makes it special.) You guys are something else. Doc, you are a little messed up. ;D ;D 8)

Reminds me of the Rarotonga scenic flight we took a few year back. We had booked out of our beach house, returned the rental scooter, checked our bags, had lunch in town and still had a few hours to fill. 

Back at the airport, oohh look, scenic flights for $XX. Jump in a trusty Cessna and off we go.

Hmm, every thread ends up with food - but no grits yet?

I just made this up from some aluminum 1/8" x 1" stock I had laying around.  I had the last 2 feet of a 12' stick on measure (for radial arm bench).  It doesn't matter what the number is, just a reference to the pith.  The wing nut allow for sliding the vertical to match where the log is and it can be taken off to store as a single 4' long stick.
