    No offense taken at all. I was being a dumb ass and ignored every opportunity to do the correct thing.

    Thank you all for all the well wishes. Hurts like hell, but that's how the learning happens.

    I type all day, so it's going to be a bit weird for awhile. But my company is being awesome and we will make due.

    The only thing that saved me from loosing the whole finger (getting lopped off) was the big heavy glove I was wearing. No real damage to the glove other than its a different color now. ;p
    What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?

    IIRC Joe Sakic did something like this too years back, and I believe he had already injured his back that season.

If its going to be 6 hours, we will wait it out. if its going to be 2 days, I will take alternative actions.

    I bought a 7KW Honda Inverter home from work last Friday, but did not need it.
    I had now power for three days in the 2003 storm. Excel was useless. United has never let me down.

    I too have experienced the downside of "stupid should be painful". Hope you heal up soon!

    Two more inches of snow when I woke up this morning and it is snowing hard again; couple more inches so far this afternoon.
