Scarred....

Maybe you've seen the TV show, but I'm sure many of us have some ugliness to share.
Here's mine......X-ray of the hardware in my right leg after my snowmobile crash that happened during the 06 SF.com Michigan ride...OUCH!!

No pics, and no huge scars (I've never had a broken bone in my life *crosses fingers & prays*), but I have scars on my face from one dog bite (above my upper lip & above my eye) and one cat bite (above my upper lip) (seriously, and neither were my pets), and then small scars in both palms and light ones on my shins from a bad case of road rash due to a very stupid decision I made involving rollerblades, my friend Brian, and his truck's tailgate.

Hey SB, why do pets want to bite your face?

ptrap & Beav -

No idea. I'm lucky like that? I've never heard of anyone else getting somewhat consistently bit in the face, especially by OTHER people's pets.

Isn't there an old joke about the Mom putting pork chops behind her kids ears so the dog would play with him/her
Just a joke.....don't get bent.
That knee must have been totally messed!!!!!
Wanna see my ruptured achilles tendon scar, my lower back disc removal scar, hernia, appendix, skate blade on the neck, teeth through my bottom lip, dirt bike torn up knee scar....? I could go on. Just proves how stupid I am I guess.
What's the old saying, something about ......"if you're healthy as a horse when your 80, you didn't go hard enough!"

How can you guys complain about gas prices. We haven't seen prices that low for 2 years. We're at $4.92 an imperial gallon here. At a $1.07.9 per liter which is $4.08 a US gallon. That's for low octane crap. Good stuff ($1.23 per liter)for sleds is $5.66 an imperial gallon or $4.65 US. Feel better about your prices now?
