The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard

The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.

We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.

We really hope you all will join us on Discord and think you will like the platform. Use the invite link below to join.

In the past month I have been missing from the message board. In April, within 4 days we had 3 family members in the Emergency Room, Pink Jr with Viral Meningitis, the next day, Bultaco with severe motorcycle racing accident and a broken collarbone and 2 days later, his mom with a TIA. Bultaco had surgery and a plate to repair his collarbone. Back to the ER 2 weeks later because he had Pulmonary Emboli (blood clots in his lungs). Things are returning to normal I hope!



On the bright side, he will be all better by ski season!



Pre-surgery X-ray







Post Surgery X-ray







Pre-surgery collarbone







Post Surgery Collarbone











Other body damage and probably the source of the clots

hey MademoisellePink, I've been off site for a while too, sorry about bulltaco ... although, if boys will be boys,.... glad I don't engage in dangerous games





But the break sucks, esp for making a living; I've been there



Guess that's why Captain was joking about you learning HvaC.



Last thing --Do not post semi nudes of your hubby EVER again, this is simply not a visual any of us need -- in fact it's a great argument for X'rays, or even gamma rays



but I do feel your pain, hope you folks are doing well
