Not uni related but here goes. Riding my families brand spanking new dirt bike on our land in west Texas, contacts weren't in and didn't notice how close to the drainage ditch I was, I crashed and snapped my leg bones like twigs, dislocated and broke my shoulder and had one hell of a concussion.

Texas, contacts weren't in and didn't notice how close to the drainage
ditch I was, I crashed and snapped my leg bones like twigs, dislocated
and broke my shoulder and had one hell of a concussion.

Me looking sexy in the hospital, my mouth had a HUGE gash in it, since
I slid about 5 - 10 feet mouth first after my helmet flew off.

Wow Kyle!
You should probably stick with unicycling. Although I have found out
that you can get hurt pretty badly doing that too! Look at my 'Broken
Leg With X-rays' (www.unicyclist.com/forums/showthread.php?t=69322) for
another nasty wound.
I am just starting to walk again now. Can't wait to ride again! I have
to make up for lost time!

contacts weren't in
Hello, Captain Moron. There's a reason motorists are required to wear
their prescription glasses/contacts. I don't mean to be a jerk or
anything but...
...so what happened to the brand new dirt bike?

Uhhh - not cool. You think maybe he figured out his mistake already
without your help?
Sympathy would be appropriate.

Yeah, too bad I didn't think going in second gear on a 125 wouldn't do
too much. The actual break was from the pedal of the bike.
I wasn't asking for sympathy, however it is always nice to know which
users on this forum are total douche bags.
