    LOL, I have broke mine 2 times! Once at work when a hydrolic line on a peice of equipment blew up as I was inspecting it. It spun me around and got blood on my truck. Nobody had a first aid kit in their trucks (I did, but nobody was listening to me) So, they laid me in the back of some dudes truck and patched me up with rags and duct tape! :eek: Not shitting ya. I told them I was fine to drive myself to the hospital, so, while I was driveing to the ER, I glanced in my mirror to have a look and see how they did, and I busted up laughing! I looked STUPID! Good thing I went to the ER as it turned out the hose also broke my cheek. :( Christ, If I had to list all the f'ing things I broke or needed stitched up, it would be a long post. :eek:

    I had all 4 wisdom teeth out 2 months ago :D, not too bad.
    I got punched in the face a long time agi and my nose broken, but only the cartilage.

    I had 'compartment release' on both lower legs (shin area) a few years ago due to exercise induced compartment syndrome, basically the muscles swell more than normal. I suffered all through high school with all kinds of Docs saying 'shin splints', lots of meds and therapy. Complications from surgery, major swelling, nerve damage, lost 90% use of my left leg, ended my career in law enforcement :(. Lots of therapy and years later I can walk but running not so much. Day to day is less painful than before the surgery, so I'm okay with it.

    I have yet to break a bone though :).

    Reconstructive surgery L knee 1979 for the unholy 3, torn ACL, MCL, Meniscus. Doc just tore it open for no scope back then & its never been the same.

    In '93, I had some dremel work in there to clean out the arthritis (not a real dremel but it looked like it on the TV w/ the help of demerol :D).

    2004, I partially tore my R knee ACL & MCL, opted for rehab than the O.R.

    Doesn't slow me down tho, I just drag em along on all my adventures & keep driving a stick to a minimum. :p
