This is a bat. Uh huh, a bat. It's called Buettikofer's epauletted fruit bat. Holy cow. Coolest looking bat I've ever seen. Fuckin' aye.

You people used to be fun. Snap out of it and be fun again. 16

I need to draw Sally's attention to this. She'll know!

I hope it's nothing serious, Cars! Good luck!

That's a bat. It's not photoshopped. You can google it and see for yourself.

Well unless he had trauma to it at some point, that sounds like something that could have several causes. It's probably just your regular old senior citizen inflammation though, old people get crap like that all the time.

Also if Cars was bitten or scratched by a rabies infected bat I hope it was just recently as it's almost always fatal once symptoms start.

I read a while ago about a six year old boy in Florida who died from rabies. He was bitten by a bat that his father brought home when he found it at work. For God only knows why, he brought it home and kept it in a bucket. After the boy was bitten the parents didn't take him to the ER for a rabies protocol because they say the boy started crying because he will have to get a shot. A week later the boy died. I don't understand the stupidity.

If that fish had a voice it would be raspy. I bet she lives in her little fish house drinking bourbon out of a water glass & chain smoking.

Doc hadn't seen the crap I had on my arm. Sent me for blood work, waiting on results to come back.

All Results came back "Normal", No infection as the Doc was worried about.

Now cleared for procedure having on Wednesday.

So what is it then? Why would your elbow just swell up and turn black and blue out of the blue?

Saw the "Sr" Doc today, as he was out yesterday.

So I had to see his young "Jr" stand in Doc. yesterday who didn't know what was wrong.

Sr. Doc said it was injury similar to Tennis Elbow.

I told him I was working on a project for several hours that had repetitive motion of the elbow,
and the Doc said that's likely what caused the elbow to swell up. Likely breaking a few blood vessels
along the way causing them to bleed and swell up with blood fluid.

And yesterday, the blood fluid in the lump started draining under the skin of my arm turning it colors.
It really looks scary, the bottom of my arm is totally black from hand to elbow.
(Took picture of it in Doc's office, wish I could post it. will try to find out)

Damn it, I hate to say it but you're right!

Years ago, I built my back deck by myself on my house to save money. (Hammer & nails, no "Air" gun)

It took me over 2 -1/2 months, working weekends and every day after work for 3 hours.

It is 12' wide by 48' long. Using 4 x 4 posts sitting on 16" x16" x 2' deep cement footings.
Used metal hangar straps to attach to house, 1" x 6" x 12 ' long pressure treated decking boards.

After our daughter's wedding reception was over, we had over 60 people on the deck, it withstood all that weight!! Never a problem!

It's as sturdy today as it was when I first built It.

All during the construction of the deck, I never had aches, pains, or other problems!
Oh to be young again!
