    Ribs suck so bad. I did 4 a few years ago from a bicycle accident. Slept on the couch. You lie there, semi-comfortable but knowing you have to move for whatever reason and dreading it.

    It didn't help that the masochist ER doctor told me ibuprofen would be fine. Joke was on her - I had some oxy at home already. For me, it does a decent job of taking the edge off and letting me sleep the first few nights.

    What a fucking champ!

    Looks like that jacket could have done a little better job, but still good.

    Man, I'm sorry to hear this. I just had a slow-speed tumble on my bike and busted one of mine - the sneeze is the worst...

    Best wishes for a full recovery.

    Deer are unpredictable, they're liable to do anything
    when they are out in front of you. I tried avoiding
    one at 70 on the highway and it just jumped right
    at me anyway.

    Broke the windshield, tore off the passenger side
    mirror, dented the hood and dented both doors
    and every panel on the passenger side.
    It even dented the hubcaps. Also somehow damaged
    both bumpers. And then evidently walked away, I
    couldn't find it anywhere. Cops never showed up.

    Luckily it was a lease. They made me take it back to
    the dealer to repair. They put an orange peel paint
    job on it and every trim piece that was glued on
    started coming off. I had to duct tape them on.
    When I turned it in the guy couldn't believe what
    condition it was in, but they couldn't blame it on me.

    And it was still within mileage allowed. Somehow
    the odometer failed the year before. Fixing it was a
    job I kept putting off until the last minute. I'm a big
    guy and getting under a Camry's dash was no small thing.
    In the end, luckily, I was able to fix it myself at no cost.
    I miss mechanical odometers and stuff you could fix yourself.

    Oh for the days when my friends and I could grab
    a case of beer on a Saturday and drop a tranny in the
    driveway, now I have to pay someone to do it.

    Was it near a Deer Crossing sign? Because if it wasn't near a sign, you might have rights to sue. LOL
