Default Help, Had knee surgery

Down for 2 weeks and cannot drive. Home by myself. Other than a hot looking neighbor that is watching over me, what else can I do or watch? Any suggestions on good movies etc.?

I did 2 1/2 months from a broken fibula. Try to stay off the internet, or it'll get to ya.

Here's to a good recovery.

Oh, do Percocets, and drink beer, then sleep.

Appoint yourself RCC's official spell checker and issue citations to violators and shorthand users. That ought to keep you busy.

Start with the weenies who just don't know any better. Then move on to the hardcore idiots.

And if that's not amusing enough, there's always the old two-Percosets-and-a-tumbler-of-tequila trick. That kept me entertained for months. Not that i condone drug abuse. That's wrong, m'kay?

microgoat, you hit the nail on the head! a spelling mistake here or there is understandable, but some of these posts will give you a headache trying to read them!

"should i lock my aksils before i mod my chassy? or should i get a new trannzmisshun furst?"

and bead lock,
good luck with your recovery! the indoor crawler course is a cool idea, or start a new crawler project.

if you want to laugh your butt off, load up on painkillers* and watch Dogma, or Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back.

although Jay reminds me a little too much of some people in here....



*not that I condone drug abuse. i might practice it but i don't condone it.

I had an ACL reconstruction about a year ago, was out for 6 months. So I ended up buying a wide-screen TV, 6-disc DVD changer w/surround sound, & a PS2. Ended up playing Socom 2 online everyday, all day. That lasted the whole 6 months...lol

Hope your recovery goes well

I've broken 13 bones in my 19 years of exhistance, so I relate well to needing to kill time. When I was younger I used to play with legos all the time. Those kits progressed to R/C's so go buy a few kits and have some fun! If the current status of the budget doesn't quite meet the specs to do that, try reading. Maybe painting/drawing? Paper airplanes?

Thanks guys, movie list was a plus.
Legos were used to create an obsticle course yesterday for my crawlers.
Modded my son's Scorpion Friday.
Built my new B4 Saturday.
Taped the kittens to a makeshift RR track and played "damsel in distress" w/ my crawler yesterday. j/K
Watched the neighbor mow her yard....................

man was she sweaty!!!!
I'll try some movies today and maybe painting my son's T3 body.
As for the spelling police, the bible says remove the board from thine own eye.....
I'd never make it past my own post!.

Find a neighbor kid, have him collect rocks and put them in your living room, and viola indoor crawling.
