hey pete where in new orleans you from? i live on the westbank and if you wanna give a tour id love to see this in person!
I'm on the Westbank in Terrytown. I'm usually at my gf's house during the week after work, but on the weekend I can have you come by. Sunday probably would be best. We're most likely going to Jazz Fest Saturday.
I managed to send myself to the emergency room yesterday. Broke the 1/2" x 48"x18" glass I had covering a couple 55 gallon drums in the garage with the door. I reached out to try to stop it from getting broken when the door picked up the glass, but wasn't quick enough. The glass slammed down on the top of the drums, broke, and grabbed my right index finger leaving a nasty 1/2" deep angled gash. When I took the paper towel and ice off in triage an hour later it was still pouring blood, so that should give you an idea of how bad. 7 stitches and $100 copay later along with a tetanus shot, I'm a bit sore. Of course, it's on my right hand and they stuck me in my right arm. Uggh, f'n delays. The stupid part is that the little voice that says don't do that wasn't so little and I still ignored it.
Ouch !!!!!! I know what you mean, sometimes when I drop something like a drill at work I try and stop it with my foot before it hits the ground. Last time it hit me on the top of the big toe even with shoes on , SONHOFFA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That Sucks Pete. Hope it gets better soon. Hey this kinda stuff just happens so we think twice about what we do or how we do it.
Wow... amazing, just spend the better part of a day reading this thread from start to finish and Pete man you are an inspiration and a model for patience and planning. Can't wait to see the finished product. Good luck and hope you heal up quick.
