I guess that's why God invented the waiver.<br /><br />A few weeks ago it came to pass that as I timidly entered the vast factory like workout machine area at the university, in pursuit of recommended "therapy", a young Chinese male on one of the treadmills pitched face first onto the rolling rubber, and died right there and then.<br /><br />But not of course without a certain ado, to put it mildly.<br /><br />Shortly after the syringes and bandage wraps and drips had been cleared away, I attempted two minutes on the prescribed machine, and dislocated my right hip.<br /><br />It's definitely a season of great good cheer in workout areas all across the homeland.<br /><br />What do you suppose is going on at the Rocky River Y? Sandbags and cots?<br /><br />Thought of you when I viewed these <a href="http://www.cleveland.com/rocky-river/index.ssf/2014/02/ice_jams_on_rocky_river_raise.html" rel="nofollow">Rocky River ice jam</a> photos.<br /><br />Toward the later stages of my ambulatory period, now thankfully but a blur, I belonged to the downtown Y for a while, and it was -- well, there was the night the bleeding guy staggered up to the desk and quietly reported he'd been stabbed, could he make a phone call -- and so on... some months after I'd stopped braving the nocturnal trip. I ran into a guy who updated me on recent events.<br /><br />"Well, last week one night at closing time they found somebody hanging from a hook in the john... you know, pretty much business as usual."TChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05915822857461178942noreply@blogger.com
