lol sounds familiar,my entire barony gets on to me for pushing too much some 
times,they know that one day of lifting and bending results in two days of 
bed rest with heating pads, muscle relaxers,and anti inflamatories in large 
doses: (
the v.a. is supposed to be starting me on some electronic gizmo to help 
block the pain, and physical therapy, but still no word on when that will go 
from talk to action : /

>> The worst thing that can happen from a small act of kindness is your hand

lol, I'm big and ugly, few people try to bite me ; ), but some do bark 
loudly as they run away ; )
 ok so its obvious I cant catch them if they run : (  .
Be Safe , Be Happy, Have Fun .
