Thou shalt NOT......

I say again, thou shalt NOT climb into the back of a boat in the shop, using an old aluminum ladder which collapses, dumping you across the outdrive as you scrape past the prop on your way to a very hard concrete floor.

Most especially, thou shalt not do this in front of students who then get very quiet, wondering if you are dead.

Thanks boys. At least they didn't kick me to check..... or laugh.

Deep breaths smart a bit. Then again, so does moving anything else right now. I can't wait to see what color that turns.

(update).
Some hours later, home now, survived a shower, I can report that nothing appears to be broken.
As long as I don't do any thing drastic it doesn't even hurt much. Drastic is defined as standing, walking, bending, twisting, breathing deep, going down stairs, going up stairs, going straight down the hall, or opening a can of soda. Other than that I am fine.

The real test will be getting out of bed tomorrow morning (g).

First your left driver response finger. . (which by the way is the same one the rosebush harpooned me with this week, reinforcing again why I hate roses)
