Did something dumb today.

Tom offered very good advice.

I needed a Band-Aid but no stitches.

I was just commenting based on experience. "Those who will not learn from history are bound to repeat it." [Somebody Important] A few of us have asked the same question, then had a hard time sleeping for a few nights after the response.

TimW · June 22, 2024, 05:07:57 PM

I am not worried. I read all of MM's posts with one ear closed. That way, I can deny I read it. At least in my head anyway.
Besides, I got a stye in my eye and I can't hear good right now.

I'm not pointing fingers, but someone gave me that stye.

Old Greenhorn · June 22, 2024, 06:54:03 PM

Well if you've read back through the last 4 or 5 years of MM's posts, I'd say you know all you need to know and are on your own. If you have not and are basing your comments on recent history, well you still have some larnin' a do.

I will leave that up to you.

P.S. the post surgery hospital videos are kind of worth the search efforts required.

That's all I got to say about that.

Magicman · June 22, 2024, 08:58:18 PM

Well at least I can wiggle my ears, one at the time, alternating, or simultaneously.

Note: It does not improve my ability to hear.

I ain't scared. I had lunch with him and I am fine. But not my eye.

Old Greenhorn · June 22, 2024, 10:38:09 PM

OK, you're a big boy. I've broke bread with him too. I was just suggesting to never underestimate the old guys, especially those thin wiry sinewy types that have muscles and grit that don't meet the average eye. He's a tough old bat and very loveable. But his photos are sometimes, well....

TimW · June 22, 2024, 10:45:23 PM

Photos? You mean like this photo of a stye somebody put in my eye?

SwampDonkey · June 23, 2024, 04:00:34 AM

When do we share scar photos? Come to think of it, I think I've seen a few meat grinder photos with some fancy hand stitching in this thread. I don't dare look back, just straight ahead. :D I've got feet like MM, logger boots do a number on my nails with all the fancy stepping when bush whacking all day. Funny, when cutting firewood my feet fair much better in them boots. But your feet or toes go through some real contortions with a clearing saw in your mits all day.

Magicman · June 23, 2024, 08:00:08 AM

Oh so now you need a photo from yesterday eh??

Remember guys, this ain't a contest. There will not be a winner.

WV Sawmiller · June 23, 2024, 08:18:54 AM

I'm sure glad I never do things like that!

SwampDonkey · June 23, 2024, 08:38:46 AM

That bruised arm reminds me of a curtain appendix that had a couple stents passed through and up into my kidneys. Only, said appendix is twice as dark. Brutal bunch! I must say though, the second time, a different doctor was not as rough. How's that for an image?

jpassardi · June 23, 2024, 08:40:13 AM

Lynn, That's quite a bruise... Might have to back it down and only cut 3000 BF tomorrow

doc henderson · June 23, 2024, 08:54:52 AM

love tap.

Magicman · June 23, 2024, 09:00:54 AM

I am trying to get the most out of year 80 so I can move on to 81 in grand style.

Texas Ranger · June 23, 2024, 09:40:45 AM

MM, years after 80 aren't grand, trust me, just gain more friends with Dr. in front of their name

Magicman · June 23, 2024, 11:46:34 AM

I may not quite fully understand yet, but I am understanding.

Yesterday I was installing a lift kit on a golf cart, some of which was lying on a creeper. Getting up off of a creeper takes some planning.

terrifictimbersllc · June 23, 2024, 12:02:48 PM

When you get up off the creeper, make sure you are off the creeper. That was my learning yesterday.

doc henderson · June 23, 2024, 12:58:23 PM

I will be 64 in October and my 80s are already kicking in!

beenthere · June 23, 2024, 02:17:34 PM

My 5 years post 80 have not been too bad. Sure not complaining and glad I'm just keeping on, keeping on. Will try to enjoy and appreciate every one as am able. Don't let the old man in.
