    Today I started myself on fire...lol.
    Obviously not that serious. I was in a hopper bin with tube aeration and cutting a square hole in the end cap of the tube ducting . It needed cleaning out. So I was grinding away and thought, geez my leg is hot, grinding sparks started my sweat pants on fire. A couple of slaps and I went out. No blistering, just burnt the little hair I have on my legs off that spot.

    Zero degree burns third degree stupidity. Hope that's as bad as it gets this harvest season.

    Mallee, I hope your Missus get better soon, who else will keep you in line.

        Horse people are tough. My Dad decided to train green broke horses when he semi retired. Most were good temperment but one was a knot head. It went over backwards on him one day landing on him and cracking his pelvis. So he crawled to the house and layed on the floor for 3 days refusing to go to the hospital. He thought he would get over it. Nobody could convince him otherwise. The third day Mom brought his electric shaver to him and said "Better shave the ambulance is on it's way."

        He spent 3 weeks in the hospital and had to use 2 canes for awhile when he got home.

        Hope your wife recovers soon.

          You mean you won’t have any hair left to transplant to your head when you get older? That’s shitty. Lol

            ....."get older"?

            Would short curly hair along with straight hair look silly?

            Edit in; Sheepwheat, no way can I work in shorts and blue jeans are too restricting, I can't do my Cirque Du Soleil moves in jeans.

            Sorry for derailing the tread, let's get back to focussing on Mrs. Mallee.

                I hope all turns out well Mallee. I could say those damn horses are nothin’ but trouble .............. but our Japanese quarterhorses (aka quads) have left scars and such on me. I say it’s “mechanical” problems but specifically the loose nut behind the handlebars is usually the cause.

                Hoping for a speedy recovery from your friends up north.

                    Is there a chance of a punctured or collapsed lung?
