Re: Not another random crash thread, this time it is one of our own
sorry to hear about the bike/incident, not sorry to hear you are doing better. Hopefully you get back on a bike but no one knows until it happens to them.
Good luck with the recovery process.

Re: Not another random crash thread, this time it is one of our own
Oh, I'll definitely be getting back on a bike! Might just take me some time to recover to the point that I can. Typing is still a little difficult, for example.

I miss VT just wish there was better paying jobs there. I lived there the first 25 years of my life :(

Yeah, I'd pretty much hate to see what was left of the person that tried to keep Mark from riding.

Re: Not another random crash thread, this time it is one of our own
Hey Guys, saw Mark this morning. Man, he's one tough mother. He's got a rod and pins in his femur, bruises all over, and for the pain is taking.... Asprin. Nuf said.
He has one request - movies. His laptop doesnt play DVDs, though. Does anyone have a small laptop DVD player with screen that he could borrow, or a DVD player that would plug into his computer via USB cable? There is a TV in his room, but it's up on the wall and there's no shelf for a small unit to plug into that.
I went to the police station and checked to see if their report was filed yet and it isn't.

Do you have good internet access Mark? I can give you either my netflix or amazon login (or both!) and you can stream all the movies you want. Not sure if that's an option though.

That's a mother's job. A son's job is not to listen. :D

Re: Not another random crash thread, this time it is one of our own
Hey Mark,
Heal up quick! Remember this: If it hurts, PLEASE ask for something... don't waste your energy dealing with pain right now. That is not time well spent. I kinda know about this, trust me. You won't heal any faster.
See you soon at Donny's.
PK
Good things for all of you Saints helping him!

PM sent, I'll try to figure out the Amazon streaming a little later, I just have to trust you to not make drug induced (or maybe just boredom based) purchases on my Amazon account :struck:

Re: Not another random crash thread, this time it is one of our own
I was going to offer the netflix subscription as well. That's a super simple way to watch whatever the hell you feel like!

Re: Not another random crash thread, this time it is one of our own
Mark,
Sorry to hear about your accident.
I also have a Netflix login you can use and I highly recommend you start by watching every season of Trailer Park Boys. Its hard not to have a good chuckle and there are like 7 seasons and 2 movies so it should be plenty to keep you occupied for a while.

HINCKLEY, UK:
In a press release issued today, Triumph has announced that rider Mark Bock, who missed the Brno round of the MotoGP championship due to a training injury, is recovering well and still intends to compete in the upcoming race in Indianapolis. Legendary paddock surgeon Dr. Costa has volunteered to perform radical and unorthodox treatment if Bock is not satisfied with his continuing progress over the next few days. Dr. Costa gained worldwide attention in 1992 when he surgically attached Honda rider Mick Doohan's uninjured left leg to his shattered right leg so that one leg could nourish the other, allowing the Australian to expedite his recovery and later win five consecutive world championships in the premier class. Dr. Costa does not feel it would be effective in Bock's case to attach his legs to one another due to the specific nature of his injures, but instead plans to attach another entire motorcyclist to Bock's injured thigh and hip area so that Bock will be nourished by the surrogate. According to a proposal published on the website of the Journal of Orthopedic Surgery, the surrogate would be attached more or less in a bear-hug around Bock's hips and waist.
When asked whether he had anyone in particular in mind for such radical procedure, Dr. Costa responded, "Oh, NobodySpecific."

Re: Not another random crash thread, this time it is one of our own
Yeah, I offered Mark the use of one of my Roku's so he can stream it easily. Those things freaking rock....wireless and very slick.... and don't worry if they say "no, our tv's don't work with it".... trust me, they all do you just have to know what you are doing :D
