Oh my.

The bird-smacking stoned red-faced primitive, Chief S itting Bull:

Redstone's advice for tonight: Don't shovel snow when you have a broken rib.

Seriously. It's better to have snow in your driveway.

Of course.

Now, who would be so stupid as to try such a thing with a busted rib?

1. Now why in the world would someone go and do a thing like that?

Ow. Hurts just thinking about it.

8. Because I'm stupid, maybe? Or not maybe, but ACTUALLY stupid? That's the unfortunate truth.

Oh.  I should've guessed.

5. Strangely, there was a time I could have used that advice.

I did the same thing once, and took very little time to realize my mistake.

6. My dear Redstone... 

And how did you manage to break your rib? Or should I even ask?

You are a very strong man!

I'm just glad we don't have snow in our driveway... 

Please take care of yourself, sweetie...

9. Well, I blacked out a couple of weeks ago, standing up too fast while I was getting
used to the new medication, and clipped the corner of a table on the way down to the floor.

Mrs R freaked. But no big deal, I'd broken that rib before, so the only real result (besides waiting for it to heal) is that I have two lumps on that rib instead of one.

Just another damn thing after another. As you probably know, a broken rib is more of an inconvenience than a real problem because it's like a broken toe: there's really nothing you can do about it except to wait for it to heal.

And not shovel snow.

Well now, franksolich begs to differ with the bird-smacking stoned red-faced primitive, who appears to be taking this too lightly.

franksolich has been absent two ribs most of his life, and even though he got used to it a long time ago, he notices the absence, and compensates for it.

It is a big deal, and Chief S itting Bull should take better care.

17. In the winter of 99-00, I shoveled snow with a broken wrist my cast was initially up past my elbow, and then was below my elbow... but, I went out there and shoveled my damn driveway one-handed with my other arm just used to balance the shovel.

My parents came to help me out once or twice during the bigger snowfalls.

I have since bought a snowblower.

Do you have a friendly neighbor that can help out in exchange for beer and/or a pizza?

21. Well, if I hadn't done it, Mrs R would have. And she'd shoveled in the morning, so I figured it was my turn.

We need a smaller driveway!

Well, as usual, the primitives trying to comfort the bird-smacking stoned red-faced primitive are missing something here.

And it's not necessarily true Chief S itting Bull is an idiot; it's an ego thing, not an intelligence thing.

One reasonably assumes the bird-smacking stoned red-faced primitive would've been out there trying to shovel the snow even if hindered by two broken legs, two broken arms, a broken back, a broken neck, and a broken skull.

It's an ego thing.

Rapidly approaching his seventh decade of life, and dealing with a progressive deteriorative ailment, Chief S itting Bull is desperately trying to prove to himself, and to others, that he's just as good as he was, when he was in his prime.

It's not good to do that to oneself, and it leads to no pleasant ending.

"Chief S itting Bull"

My God, frank, that's hilarious.  You've probably been calling him that for weeks, but I just noticed it.

Actually, I've been doing that for about three months, ever since the bird-smacking stoned red-faced primitive alleged he's of half Native American derivation.  He used to allege that once in a while, but it was only recently that he's alleged it more and more.

The problem is, sometimes the "h" key on the keyboard gets stuck, and as it's too much trouble to go back to correct it, I let it go.

edited to add explanatory portion of first paragraph; sorry for the inconvenience

Correct only insofar as you can't do a lot to make them better, however in the case of the rib there are lots of things you can do to make it much worse...like shoveling snow.

No doubt the bird-smacking stoned red-faced primitive is strong...... under the arms ...... as is the case with all DUmmies, both male and female. (sigh)  If they would only use soap.

IN the last year I've broken 3 ribs on my right side, 2 ribs on my left, displaced a bone in my right wrist, had a spiral fracure of the left pinky, snapped my left middle finger in half--oh yeah--and dislocated my left shoulder compounded with an avulsed fracture...and all on seperate occasions while on active-duty or working in the oil fields.

And he's grousing about shovelling snow?
