prochem: "my great gramps lost his leg when he stepped on a land mine in ww1"
it may be the drink but that makes me think a lot of how easy we really do have it...I don't think I'd have it in me to step onto the battlefield.
(not a bother to get on the dancefloor though)

Jeanie if I had known I wouldn't have posted my story on prosthetic legs... but it's one of those things I now think of when I hear of Forrest Gump!! *smacks forehead*
Anyway that really stinks about what happened to your dad's leg. It's great he has a sense of humor about it, but what he went through had to have been one of the most horrifying ordeals!
I agree motorcycles are so dangerous. It makes me so nervous when I see them go past me on the road. I found out not too long ago that my first boyfriend who I dated off and on for 6 years died in a motorcycle accident, in 2003.
prochem - that's intense! My great uncle was injured in WWI but ithat's nothing compared to your great gramps losing a limb!
Anyway. Can't think of anything to hate right now. It's Friday at long last and the weekend has landed!

Ow Whirls that sucks about youre first boyfriend !! And no worries come on you know me like i give a shit about that forrest gump story hahaha. Seriously its better to laugh about it! i thought it was a brilliant story.

So my dad is on the bicycle just , well , bicycling , and suddenly , and this almost never happends , his leg falls off. He manages to stop and leans on his remaining leg and his fake leg is lying on the road. There is a man walking by and my dad shouts " Eh could you get my leg for me ?!" HAHAHAHA the look on the mans face.

Hospitals. I'm getting ready to go back down there today for a quick visit.
My grandma (my dad's mother) had a stroke last Sunday and I drove down to see her early last week because she's in bad shape. She's 92 and she'll never make a full recovery, but she's in physical rehab. It just stinks all around. She's a stubborn woman, her mind is there but when I saw her last she was not happy being trapped in a half funcitoning body.
Bleh...

Best wishes for your grandma, Whirly.
As for the motorcycle stories, they say there's only two types of motorcyclists: those who have crashed and those who will.
I'm currently hating the weather. It's been miserably rainy for a week or so after hitting 30 C the week before.
Also hating being broke. My last car payment bounced because I spent too much on clothes and shoes, but I'm getting back on track. My big vacation pay comes in three weeks. I could always just be more frugal but that's no fun.

I am currently hating -- anticipation.
Of all sorts.
Whirly, sorry to hear about your grandmother, getting old is pretty terrible so it seems. My grandfolks had some trouble as they got older as well. I hope thing turn out okay for your grandmum.
Random thought about false legs (sorry, had to bring it back up).
My grandma had to have her leg removed because of poor circulation from diabetes (the type your are born with). A friend's 2 year old was over to her house and was he playing around with some toys. At one point or another my grandma's prosthetic got uncomfortable, so without thinking, she popped it off. That's about the time, the 2 yr old decided to look over and needless to say his eye just about popped out of it head. 0_0
The shock was priceless!
