I'll have updates on the Xmas break later, but there's a more pressing news story at the moment - I'm injured!! It's a pretty lame story. I was stepping down a mini-flight of stairs (2 stairs) and felt a sharp pain in my calf, like someone hit me with a ball-peen hammer. I fell down but managed to hobble downstairs & called Adale to drive me home. Adale diagnosed me from the web & today my doctor confirmed what she thought - I have a calf strain, meaning I have a tear in my calf muscle. It was totally weird the first night because the injury to the muscle made it so my foot had to be pointed completely down or I was in crazy pain. The doctor gave my crutches (unfortunately, he was all out of canes) .
The bad news is that I may never be able to jog again.
The good news is that for the next few days I can legitimately use scooters at the grocery, as I do in the grainy video below. You wouldn't believe how those things can turn on a dime.

Poor bastard. What, pray tell, caused the sprain/ tear?
That little tart cart is cool, but the supermarket is no place to drive.
For an extra $10, Genuardis will deliver groceries to your door. Shop online.
I don't know why I got hurt. I just took a regular step down one stair. It's feeling a lot better after two days home, resting & icing it down. I think watching Zombie Strippers helped put me in a healing frame of mind.
That's a great tip about $10 delivery from Genuardi's, If the sale items show up online I may use it sometime.
I am sorry you are hurt, but this video is so awesome and we might never had witnessed it were it not for the calf strain.
Also, I cannot stop laughing at your link to the cane.
