    Default I'm out of comission for a while!

    Well,to make a long story short I initially screwed my shoulder up at wellsville and it hasn't been right since.I was going to have it looked at a couple months ago,but the only other guy I work with went on light duty (2 weeks) due to a cut finger.Yes you read that right!Anyway,I planned on getting it looked at as soon as he got off light duty.He ended up milking it for 1 month & 3 weeks!

    FYI-I work for a contracted company,so if both of us would have been on light duty nothing would have got done & we could have possibly lost the contract and I really did not want to be responsible for that!

    Yesterday morning I was going out to my truck to leave for work and I fell on the ice onto my bad shoulder & made it worse than it already was.

    I just got back from the ER and I have an AC joint separation and I will be on light duty for at least 6 weeks!

    Good luck with the "rehab". The last time I fell on the ice, I broke my right collar bone.

    Thanks for the well wishes everyone!

    I think the thing that irritates me the most is I just took my quad in to get bored out to 671ccs and get an aftermarket cam put in.I'm going to get it back in a week or two & I'm not even going to get to test out the new power
