First off. . .WOW! 12 “Hello World” posts in a day. Were there really 12 ATR’s over the weekend? That sucks. This is a club I’d like to see remain a small one.

Haven’t figured out how to post pics, but I’m not the most computer literate to begin with. . .
I got my cast cut off on October 27th and got a walking boot. 2 weeks in a cast, not too bad really. I was a little disappointed that my foot didn’t reek as [...]
