Ok - you asked for it! Still lots of swelling and bruising. Nether regions are completely black and blue. More black than blue. Really kind of humorous. I am pretty happy with the results. Hitting the gym like crazy as soon as I can.

Hi Jim! Glad to see you made it through with flying colors (though primarily black and blue at the moment). You look great (smiling, not overly drugged up).

I'm moving next week, so we'll be almost neighbors! I'll look you up when you are feeling better!

I think I just passed out.

Oh yeah! THAT'S why I didn't go into practicing medicine. I'm a wimp!
