Thinking I'll have permanent reminder it would be wise to give it consideration.

However, have went perhaps 50 years without stitches and this is the second time in 3 months, so I wouldn't bet on it.

Ouch!!!

My comments were a little more vivid than that. I distinctly remember YCSMF. There may have been a SOAB thrown in also.

No chance of concussion I hope?

Head injuries are funny that way. I've got a couple good scars (comparable to yours) from head shots that just cut the skin/flesh. Then the one that [bleep] me up bad for a couple years and still has some holdover, what, 5+ years later didn't leave so much as a tender spot anywhere on my head.

They checked me over pretty good and even took some scans which they said were normal. No headaches, dizziness, nausea, etc. Could have been worse. Eye, teeth....

Uh-oh. That machine had to be broken.....

Upper body today, new personal record.

Twelve different women asked for my phone #, previous best was nine.

😂

Had a good hike and swim with the dog last evening. The dog swam around the lake while I walked the beach, he just wouldn't quit.

got 9 tough miles in this morning elk hunting, no luck- but glad to get out.



was home early enough went to the gym and did Wendler week 1 (5) dead lifts and overhead presses, along with 3x10 pullups, 3x30 dips, 3x50 yards weighted lunges and core

Did lower body today, felt good. Goblet squats with the kettle bells always kick my butt.

this morning 4x50 yards lunges, 4x50 air squats

this evening 5.5 miles on the trails

morning push-ups 4x50, pull-ups 4x10

evening- wife and Tiny E accompanied me on the trails for 3.5 miles

Been in the salt mines all week... love this customer but when the pile of parts lands, it's game-on, big time. Getting the parts (400 this run) through the fixturing is quite taxing on the arms. They aren't light, lotta torque on bolts, etc. Actually took 2 ibuprofen last night! Whoa. Don't like taking DRUGS.

I've missed some killer outdoor-pursuit weather. However I just found out the last (100) of the parts, aren't back yet from heat treating, so I've got the weekend off! There will be highly aerobic activities. Cannot WAIT.

Carry on guys, good work you are doing, and I like reading about your stuff in my inbox when I'm swamped.

Upper body yesterday, cardio today. Hope to hunt cows next weekend.

Go get em. I [bleep] hate cows.

Oh yeah? Why is that?

Because they plagued my life in northern NM in the late 70's... we'd pack WAY into designated wilderness areas and hey look.... [bleep] cows

Cows are where bulls come from. You can google it if you don't believe me.

Er ... I think one o' you is talking bovine cows while the other is talking elk cows. Maybe?

Could be. But I haven't hunted bovines ever since they made cattle rustling a crime.
