Condor Posted September 27, 2010 Share #1 Posted September 27, 2010 Went out to install a center stand on the '99 this morning. I'd been making headway when I decided to get back up from laying on the floor wrenchin' to get another tool. Instead of grabbing the work stool for support, I figured I could stand on my own.. Nope!! Ended up flat on my face and blood all over the place. Wife came out and thought I was dead... I may have been out for a few secs... I donno?? But I finaly said something and she said 'Oh Damn!'. Now I'm not sure if it was because she was greatfull I was alive... or disppointed?? Anyway 2 skinned up knees, and one big time skinned up forehead. I quit for the day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redneck Posted September 28, 2010 Share #2 Posted September 28, 2010 I think the second gen just took a little revenge on you for all the nasty thing you have said about them over the years. I hope you heal up soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mini-muffin Posted September 28, 2010 Share #3 Posted September 28, 2010 Now I'm confused as to whether I'm suppose to say be more careful or more klutzy? :whistling:Well I'm sure you'll be a bit sore for a while, but you'll heal.

skydoc_17 Posted September 28, 2010 Share #4 Posted September 28, 2010 Hey Jack, Us old guys have to be careful, we don't "Bounce" like we use to! I hope you are feeling better. When you have recovered, I would like to hear more about your center stand project. Some pics would be nice. (of the center stand, not of your busted up noggen!) Rest up and take another run at it when you feel better. Earl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually with you, it is a week or more (usually much more)..... Besides it is way too early, to get into your haloween costume, or was this a trial run......

Beau-Kat Posted September 28, 2010 Share #19 Posted September 28, 2010 When I was building my garage, I was standing on a stack of OSB in the back of my truck while I lifted the upper floor pieces up through the ceiling joists. Bad idea! Well, as I pushed a piece of OSB up, the stack I was standing on shifted. I lost my footing and fell onto the concrete, a piece of 3/4" OSB in tow. I smacked my head pretty hard, so the first thing I did was feel aound my skull to see if I was bleeding. Then I looked around to see if anyone was watching. I don't know what got hurt worse, my body, or my pride. The funny part was, even though I did break my own wrist in the fall, everyone at church asked my wife what she had done to me! That made the recovery so much more bearable. Glad to know you are o.k. As I get older, I think about emergencies a lot more and keep my cell in my pocket more often.

Lone Eagle Posted September 28, 2010 Share #20 Posted September 28, 2010 Geesh, bud, several visions are coming to my mind? Is the floor OK? Is you center support still dangling? On a different note, though, glad to read you are OK - take it easy up there big guy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
