My surgeon wanted me to get a stationary bike. A couple years ago. I just got a nice 6 speed bike (I have an in house trainer thing from years ago). I'm glad they were sold out of the carbon fiber one I would have gone for it. Like 2 ounces.

I just got a chef and paring knife of German origin. Plus 4 made in USA cast iron skillets. I won't keep repeating but with the car crash that broke my neck I stopped cooking. My zest is returning and I am cooking again. I treated myself to a chef and pairing (Germany) and a tomato (USA) knife.
People laugh but before I had a set of get this....Ginsu, as a wedding gift. A joke for 1970 but the modern actually decent. Much better than my sister's made in China Le Creuset ones. BUT, they must be constantly sharpened.

Thanks! I did not break bones nor did I bleed out but I have things that need to be fixed. Next, allow me to explain the 10 seconds (no, I do not wait that long normally, I do not want to get shot). It is a huge intersection think 6 lanes plus a wide median. I'm in the left lane and the right lane runs out in about 500 feet. I'm in no hurry and I always let the people in the right lane zoom ahead. I do wait 3-4 seconds though normally, for the red light runners. The person to my right in an SUV to my surprise also decided to wait a couple seconds so I figure hey he's not in a hurry. I push on the gas, so does he. I'm still waiting for him to zip by me and merge over. We both proceed into the intersection (which again, is HUGE). This is now 8, 9 seconds without clearing the intersection and I'm a bit annoyed that he did not zoom ahead. I push on the gas (I think, not sure) he saw it coming and hit the brakes. I could not see because his SUV is 5 feet taller than me. Now it is 10 seconds. I see a flash of grill, blackness, a flash of guardrail, and more blackness. That person had to have had their foot to the floor a 1/4 mile back to run the red at 10 seconds. It should have been a reckless driving ticket not a redlight ticket. So no, I do not normally take 10 seconds to clear an intersection, this was an unusual day of circumstances.

MINI Countryman 2012 S with 30k miles (was crashed not that bad sat quite a while) not fully loaded but very well equipped also significantly discounted. Yes, I had to put $2400 into it in the first month. My POS Mazda was totaled by a maniac that ran a red light by TEN seconds. Double impact her car into my my side then straight into the guardrail dead stop head on. I mostly remember blackness and someone saying "level 3 trauma".
