I have to move very slowly because my rib cage was badly bruised by the seat belt, and I don't sleep well flat on my back. Fortunately, it isn't any worse this morning than it was last night, so I can still breath reasonably well. Problem is, I've got two moves to finish up today, one in Burbank and one down in Anaheim. That's work you can't really put off to another day, so I'm expecting to put up with some pain today. [link\|http://www.aaxnet.com\|AAx]

Don't know that I'd go for the duct tape box recommended, but then I'd be worried about removing it.

One of my brothers in law had something happen to his boat Sunday, was thrown out of it, managed to swim to shore. His boat (er skipper, motorboat? watercraft?) kept going and ended up on one of the main streets of Kankakee (appropriately named River Street). The reports I have say he's OK but muchly bruised up. Perhaps fortunately, he doesn't remember a lot about whatever it was that did it. (Probably something stupid, I am not one to doubt his word but I know how one can lie to others and even to yourself when things happen.)
