Not sure that link is right, went to a 70's music video.
Curious to what may have happened to you in a fire, but glad you are ok.

Re: some of you may haave noticed my absence...
 

the link is to an old Locomotive GT song "back home", thought it was fitting ;)


nothing real spectacular like racing but I DID watch flesh dripping off my body

changing fuel lines on a 70's dodge pickup and it burst into flames, got my 1st ride in a helicopter
and burn units are NOT fun....


convinced me to buy a fire suit and stuff, though

Hope you're feeling better Tom. Go work on the Rambler. Much more fun and they don't explode.

Re: some of you may haave noticed my absence...
 

thanks, I DID loose 50lbs over this deal



no, that's not a typo.....

Re: some of you may haave noticed my absence...
 

As a former medic I can say with 100% certainty that critical burns is a fate that I would dread over all things...to the point I am fanatically cautious around combustibles. Tom you deserve a tremendous amount of credit for enduring the fight and even maintaining some humor pointing out your 50 pound weight loss as a plus.

Re: some of you may haave noticed my absence...
 

X2 I just cant begin to imagine the pain you must have gone through. keeping the good humor is great. life is good!

Re: some of you may have noticed my absence...
 

if it wasn't for my NOT taking stuff too seriously got me thru all of this plus I seem to be turning left handed too (no kidding)

mybe when I quit shaking so bad'i'lltype out a nice gruesome story about it.....it'll sell fire suits and maybe save a life or 2

Re: some of you may haave noticed my absence...
 

Scary! I'm praying for recovery, physically and emotionally.

Re: some of you may haave noticed my absence...
 

I think I'm ok emotionally although I DO get some crying episodes but i'll get over it


physically, I wanna go bang some gears!
stress relief,ya know;)
