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.

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.

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.
