The Looming Specter of Death and a Tonka Truck
I re-injured my groin/hip playing pick-up basketball Wednesday night, and part of me wonders whether I am getting old and should give this kind of stuff up, and the other part of me wonders whether getting drunk and stepping on a Tonka truck did more damage than I thought at the time.

Uh oh, Zman... sounds like the beginnings of a lawsuit.
I had zwoman read about the Tonka truck incident a while ago, and she wonders about the logistica of the fall. In order to step in the bed of the particular Tonka truck at issue, Dave had to be highstepping like Deion Sanders on his way to the endzone. The bed of this Tonka truck is simply too high for a normal person with a normal gait to step into. Dave might've slipped his foot between the underside of the Tonka truck's bed and the chassis holding the wheels, but this also requires a particularly weird and unnatural gait. So I suspect that something odder and more deviant happened to cause the giant boom in my living room.
Odder than walking around your living room dipping pepperoni into a jar of Grey Poupon and eating it as a snack?
i get very excited when i have pepperoni to eat. i definitely stepped into the bed of that truck. and i am in severe pain today . . . went for an x-ray but haven't heard the result, but something bad is going on in my hip.
you should probably update your medi-alert wristband
you joke, but that's the state i am in. takes me ten minutes to get off the couch. but i am getting a chance to watch "the killing." really good show.
I'm hooked on Justified - makes me want to move to Kentucky and join the US Marshalls
Dave's "30 For 30" is going to be like the Bo Jackson story, except a Tonka truck will play the role of Kevin Walker.
