    Damn! You're lucky that's all you got out of it! How hard did you impact?

    Happy healing . . .

    That's not a blow to the head... (well, it is, but I don't think people want me posting pictures following my bus to the head).

    Glad you came out alright. That could have been bad.

    Any dizziness, nausea, blurred vision or neck pain?
    Monty Python's version of the cougar phenomenon:
    "This is a frightened city. Over these houses, over these streets hangs a pall of fear. Fear of a new kind of violence which is terrorizing the city. Yes, gangs of old ladies attacking defenseless, fit young men".

    I don't know if you want to compare busted head pictures with me... But dude, you're lucky you didn't break an orbital bone. That shit is painful and takes forever to heal. I broke one almost 2 years ago and I still don't have feeling in about a 2cm x 2cm area on the right side of my face.

    Who says I didn't? But, fortunately, mine seems to be healing quickly and relatively painlessly. The one that hurt more was the nasal bone.

    I'm still pestering my buddy with the pictures on his camera phone to send them on to me.
