Ten days ago I came off my bike and fell heavily on my right hand:

It was my own fault, I was simply riding too fast. I was going through a pedestrian plaza when I rounded a pillar and saw a staircase down right in front of me, tried to steer for a fraction of a sec, felt the front tyre start to let go then hit the brakes. I had my seat post up very high (for pedalling efficiency) and I just sailed over the bars. What a bonehead! ;)

So, I'm off work for a couple more days, waiting for the insurance company to get back to my boss saying I can return to light duties, and off my bike altogether for a month. I reckon I'll hit the gym and use the machines to build up my legs a bit.

Bleah! Walking sucks.

The CAT scans are actually remarkably clear, much better than the X-rays I had done on the day. Blame my camera's lack of manual focus and poor auto for the blurriness of those images.

I broke the triuqetral bone, which is the carpal immediately beyond the head of the ulna.

^^^ Seen it before.

I didn't fall down the stairs, but my wheels nearly did.

^^^ Depends on his health insurance status, and my eagerness to begin the great adventure/meet my maker/cark it.

On the face of it: Better. My wheels are cooler than his. ;)

^^^ The 'powerful one' can squeak for itself: I don't do hearsay. ;)

And for the record: I busted my hand on Monday the 22nd; days before PlaneswalkerWhy put his little hex on me.

It couldn't power an electric toothbrush.

You just 'did' hearsay...lol :xyxthumbs:

True, but, he hasn't refined his hex skills yet...still, rather odd he wished a bike accident on you, and voi loi! You'd better hope he doesn't wish impotence on you...maybe your cock will fall off a couple days before he does!

^^^ No, you did by listening Butterz! ;)

I meant, I don't pay attention to hearsay.

I also should refrain from spreading unfounded gossip, so I'll direct the relevant sentence from my last post at the intended recipient:

Planeswalker, your power couldn't run an electric toothbrush. ;)

woahhhhh...your fruity genius confuses me...I'm going to admit defeat on this one and try to figure out what you just said! lol

I'll be back sometime next week...this may take a while!

Damn that's no good. Hope it heals fast.

I'm still surprised you didn't break your neck when we were leaping around on them rocky cliffs at 4am on a saturday morning. :/

Ah, I wasn't that pissed... it was just dark- that's all.

Cheers mate. :)

OK, to clear up that last post:
Gossip: Talking with someone about a third party.
Hearsay: Statements that are unfounded because they are second hand. Any cop will tell you hearsay is inadmissible.

So, when Butterz says that PlaneswalkerWhy said whatever douchenozzled boneheadedness, that's hearsay. If we were talking crap more genrally without specifically quoting him then it's gossip. Perhaps it's a fine distinction, but it's one that I consider important.
