Looks like a lot of info missing for 2 reasons, switch to new software and THE CRASH.
I will be in updating several threads so I can point others to threads/titles that already exists. And their searches will yield some results worthwhile. I just did not realize this until I started to answer BriBur.
I better get crackin' :4-whip:
glad you've made it back OK!!!!!!:Banane57:

Yea, the Westies tried to ply me high losses at the gaming tables, temps of 109, no grass, and a few (well maybe A LOT) of hotties, but my wife very pointedly said "let's get outta here" and I made it back ok.
Thanks for the thought:thumb:

Don't forget the tons of alcoholic beverages. Or did you have too many to remember? Unbelievably, after all of the beers at the pool and later at the party, I had my best luck gambling. I should do that more often.....

But I sure had fun doing it!

I understand that "what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas", but I'm sure that those that weren't there would like to know: What happened??? Is Lord Bear OK??? Can he drive 6er and drink his Starbucks at the same time still??? :dunno:

Don't worry E, he can still eat his chicken wings with one hand! :eatdrink:
I won't be the one to tell the story though, but I can tell you it was all Bdaw's fault!!! :stick:

Seriously though, one thing I can tell you is that Bear is one serious tough guy!!! My hat of to Bear!

OK, I might as well come clean before the press twists the story to make it even more glamourous than it was.
Friday - 2 PM: BDAW and I check into the hotel.
Friday - 3 PM: I decide that I want to make sure the hotel uses Fresh Mint in the Mojitos, so BDAW and I go to the store to procure said mint leaves.
Friday - 3:15 PM: While walking to the car (in 115 degree heat) I unwillingly stepped into a small sinkhole in the pavement. My foot got caught in the hole, and threw me off balance. My ankle turned in my sneaker and sliped out of it as I fell flat down; head first. Luckily I got my hands up in front of me as I hit the ground, but unfortunately my right hand formed a fist and I landed on it with my chest. This broke one of my ribs (ouch). My left wrist snapped back and messed up my left thumb/wrist.
BDAW, (who was driving) notice that I had suddenly "disappeared" next to the car. He ran over to see what happened, and saw me laying unconscious on the pavement. When I came to, he told me not to move. That wasn't gonna work for me, since the pavement was about 140 degrees, and I was like a very large piece of bacon...sizzling on the asphalt.
He then tried to help me up by putting his arm down like a bar that I could pull up on. LOOL! Didn't he realize that I would have pulled him down on top of me? Hello China...here we come!
For those that are not familiar with BDAW...him falling down would have the same effect as me getting hit with a box of cereal, as opposed to someone of my size causing a small earthquake.
When I finally got up (with the help of the open car door) I was very happy to get into the car and feel the AC blowing cool air on me. For some strange reason, I was unable to see for about 20 minutes (all I could "see" was white puffy cloud-like formations) but my vision slowly came back as we got back to the hotel.
I spent the rest of the weekend trying to get through life with the use of one hand, and making sure I didn't inhale fully. I have never broken a rib, but it sure sucks.
As I promised many of the gang, I went to see my Dr, as soon as I got home. The X-ray confirmed the broken rib, but no organs were punctured. No major breaks in the wrist, but there is a large pocket of blood at the base of my thumb that should heal up fine.
They didn't really do much for the rib, but gave me some extra strength Vicodin and told me to make sure (as painful as it may be) to inhale deeply at least once an hour, and try to cough a bit too. This would keep my lungs from filling up with liquid, and ward off pneumonia.
So all in all, it could have been worse. I apologize to the Vegas guys for not being as sociable as I usually am, but I was not in the best mood, and wanted to make sure I was "up" for the party.
PS: Only ONE person had a Mojito...GRRRRRR!

Sorry to hear that Bear. Glad that you're OK. Go easy on vicodin (or, just follow your doctor's order).
