Not sure if I have a good foot anymore Bob.

Sure the left one only has one scar on top, but it has a scar on the bottom too.



(of course it is pretty much healed up now, as opposed to how it looked two years ago)



And they both have some hardware in them.

Left foot:




Right foot:





After the right foot gets fully healed it may be better for nut kicking, as the added mass of the stainless steel and Nitinol will produce a better impact.

:devilish:
Ahhh Racer, looks like your socks have removed all the hair of the bottom of your legs too. My kids were bugging me about that a couple weeks ago and I told my son (who looks like a freekin' hobbit), that his time would come one day. We used to bug my Dad about the same thing.....what goes around comes around as they say.

Can you imagine how those drama queens would act if I wasn't so humble?
Some of Mrs Racer's Norwegian humbleness must have rubbed off on you

I want to know what Savoche means.

Having searched the term I can’t find it anywhere except here and your Flickr page.
My first name, not my screen name.

As for my screen name... Traditional male choirs on the island of Sardegna/Sardinia have four parts: su bassu, sa contra, sa mesu voche and sa voche.

I am fairly certain nobody has stepped even in the general direction of thinking the thought of making me a m0d

I must admit, though, ever so humbly, that Racer's idea of bringing Thor's hammer down on D&G does sound tempting...! It would be sort of fitting, too, since my first name is derived from Þórr/Thor
Hmmmm, your new nickname? ;-)

Good morning all. So nice to see the sun peaking up over the horizon while on the bus ride in instead of the impenetrable darkness of December and January. Oh and we are even able to walk the dog in the sunlight after work. Have a great hump day all. Oh, and payday for me!

Nah, we don't use nicknames much over here.

Btw, nickname... When did you guys decide that "an ekename" should become "a nickname"?

Yes, good chilly morning from the Heartland!
18F here, but the time changes on Sunday, so we'll have an hour longer daylight in the evening, that should help warm things up,

I have never had much hair on my legs.

I’m a tow headed boy.

I couldn’t grow much of a beard until I was in my mid to late 20’s. When it did finally produce decent results the mustache and chin were blonde, the cheeks ruddy brown.

The hair on my head is light brownish blonde, bleaches very light in the summer, and is very fine.
