    Howdy guys!! Hope all is well here. I wanted to thank all of you guys for your get well wishes both here and on my e-mail. Wayne, thanks for the funnies and please keep sending them! I have been e-mailing you, but the message keep coming back!! I am doing a bit better...can make a loop around the grocery store with the help of a cane, but still can't sit in one position for more than about five minutes. Physical therapy is helping, but it is all very slow. Getting some run-around from Workman's comp, but hope to get it straightened out without the aid of a lawyer. Hope to be back here soon, take care guys!!

    Great to hear you are up and about, albeit quietly, John. Hope all continues going well for you and they sort the Worker's Comp. BS sorted.

    Gary.

    John,
    With all due respect to the more sensitive members "don't let the *******s (wc)wear you down!"
    Glad to hear you're at least somewhat mobile, and keep your vocal cords in good shape, you'll need them to scream at the wc board. The louder you scream the more they listen! From Experience!

    John, Chris is right. Shout at the Devil! They do not care about you, they are only in business to collect premiums, not to pay claims. Get well, and keep trying both my e-mail addresses until you get through to me.

    John, if you can't keep us up to date, can you get Christopher to fill us in on how you are doing? Keep trying my email, it is working fine right now. Southwestern Bell (phone) was giving us some flack for awhile, but that is ironed out now. ;)

    Problem with Workmen's Comp boards is, they're not made up of working men & women- they're made up of govt. beaureaucratic flacks.

    OK, off the soapbox....... :D

    You may have to get a lawyer for this one, but whatever it takes- give 'em hell, John!

    John if our emails are not getting to you, post here and let us know. I'll send some more, but I don't know if you are getting them. I have no replies from you.
