The Hijack Zone - Zombies Welcome

Re: The Hijack Zone - Zombies Welcome

I had a bad shoulder (inflammed bursa) from doing heavy military presses. I'll try to remember the name of the drug they gave me. 99% sure it's Celebrex

Couldn't sleep on that side, etc. One dose and the pain was reduced by 95%. Two weeks later I was back at it again with no pain.

Re: The Hijack Zone - Zombies Welcome

So I guess the cookout this afternoon with the cold beer and steaks is out, hey? Sorry about the fridge Nothing like a nasty fridge. Someone unplugged one of mine once, it was packed with pheasant and grouse. Did not find it for a while- Eeeeewwww!

Congrats FB!!!

Hijack! Yall ever make one of these?>?? I was bored the other night and Holy Cow! How much fun...Shot a spud at a tree 50 feet away, and there was just mashed potato residue on the bark. Then shot one in the air at a high angle, spud went clear outta my yard, over the trees and landed somewhere in the woods several hundred feet away. Hoot!!!

I saw a spud gun shoot through both sides of a pickup tailgate. Make sure to use the right grade of tube and chamber as one is rated for much higher pressures.

I'll probably make one shortly also.

Congratulations on the sale!!! Maybe some trim tabs,1708, resin

Ok My Turn
Hijack

I did the dumbest thing ever tonight!!!!!

OK well I take my 7yo son to school and pick him up every day we both bicycle to and from, its our daily ritual In this day and age with out of shape kids from computers and video games I don't want him to be a statistic.

I was clowning around on the way home today riding a wheelie on my 27" Fuji Crosstown showing off, what can I say I'm a kid at heart lol.

Well................ tonight he was trying to pop a wheelie so I figured I would teach him, A 45 yo should NOT try to ride a 20" bike!!!! To little bike, to much adult strength !!!!
I hopped on his bike to show him went to lift the front tire and was INSTANTLY on my back, now I know how a turtle feels. I hit the pavement so hard instant migraine, felt an explosion in my shoulder I think I rattled my brain whats left of it anyhow. The bike didn't even move forward I went to peddle an lift the front and it took all the energy and just rotated the bike on the back wheel, BLAMMMMM on the ground .
That's not the worst of it though, 20 years ago I had dislocated my left shoulder and its never been the same since, it tends to pop out now and then. Well this blew it out big time, it hurts so much I cant tell if its back in place or not. I pressed against the wall upward and back but this time unlike 1000's of others to no avail.

Anyone have suggestions or an excersize to get it back in ??? I've tried stretches, rotating Hanging pressure etc.. getting ready to take 800mg Motrin and pack it in ice

P.S. All the muscle & tissue is now swollen

grocery and bill money.... dang, bein responsible sucks sometimes...

Ouch on the shoulder!!! Dang you done it up right this time!!!!! Hope you can get some kinda relief from it. Might outta go see a Dr if its still all boogered up in a few days!

Re: The Hijack Zone - Zombies Welcome

5am and barely slept all night still in pain and I have 40-50 people coming over for my sons 1st communion party today. Tables to set up, food to prepare ouch!

Hey Marlboro, I packed it in ice last night but I think the beer was part of the problem to begin with lol . My bike was 40' away I was just to lazy to get it

Hey Robby, Both , I'm getting older and my war wounds from over the years re-injure more easily . The stuff happening is me acting like a jerk some times sometimes I forget im not a kid anymore I still roller blade Ice skate and bike all the time. Even with pins in my leg, and a torn knee I still leg press 650 on the universal.

Hey Sprint, I used to have Celebrex, good stuff but I think they took that off the market for some reason.

Hey Snowy, Sorry to hear you have to spend the money on food and stuff instead of toys I just hate it when that happens

As far as going to a Dr., I don't like doctors. The last time I went mine told me " yup you broke the L4 in your back, can have it operated on but wont do much good, here's some Percocet for the pain" Grrrrrrrr, why can't we be more like boats, "Well we'll replace that broken stringer and you'll be better than New "

Re: The Hijack Zone - Zombies Welcome

Hey HVAC, to quote my girlfriend... "We're not 20 anymore!"

Switch your meds to Aleve... that stuff blows ibuprofen outta the water. I took IB for a couple decades, but my doc switched me to Aleve back in February and the difference is astounding. Just taking 1 pill every 8 - 12 hours is enough to stop the pain. Aleve also helps reduce swelling better than the IB does.

Put some heat on that shoulder with a heating pad too, a moist one if you have one of those. Helps a lot.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery!

I keep forgetting, I don't feel any older but my body does :redface:

Thanks for the tip an the Aleve, I took 800mg last night of motrin, still swollen and in pain. I'll PU some on the way to church, if that don't work I'm switching to JD (Jack Daniels) instead

Naw, just a lot of years of turning wrenches hands are full of muscle waiting to be developed, just a sign of hard work. Kinda like that one muscle & near your elbow looks like a golf ball , you only develop if you turn wrenches or row boats I do both , oh well

BTW, here is the whole clan I had no defense with everyone picking on my hands tonight lol

Well long day & the wife is asleep beside me on the couch, guess its time for bed, night all

I think they too it off 'cause people were croakin' or 'cause it effects memory. Pretty sure it was Celebrex

Re: The Hijack Zone - Zombies Welcome

Ah Bill sorry for starting the hand thing, at least you take it in good spirits. Plus, if any of these comments upset you, you can toss around those ham-hocks and drop some mother f*&kers.
