Dan - tried to kill me - again.

So today I went to Dan's Dad's house to cut wood. Its a bit of a communul program we have worked out with Dans Dad. We cut the wood needed for his house, then we cut our own wood for our houses(not that Dan even has a stove). So, again today I went to cut wood with Dan. We finished up and he was going to give me a lift back to my car, parked about a 10 minute walk away. So I hop on his tailgate as he drove through the woods. Clearly he forgot there was a human being in the back of the truck because he was going like a bat out of hell.

Soon enough he hits a bump that sends me FLYING into the air. I came off that tail gate about a foot, maybe two. It felt like 10!! I came crashing down, all 250lbs of man meat, on to his tailgate. For those who don't know I have/had 2 herniated discs and been diagnosed with degenerative disc disease so I'm my back is in no condition to be tossed around like he's just another tractor part in the back of Dans truck.

Anyways, I'm doing fine. So far. We'll see how I am in the morning.

Oh, and let me tell you about the time I was looking through a small glass window, and Dan shot the window out with a pellet gun.... well, maybe another time.

Most of the adventures between son and the "spare" one, I can live not hearing about. Otherwise I would have aged much faster than I have to this point. The current adventure is an example. Hope your back survives in the a.m.
