Painmaster 2000

Several people have ask about my knee operation and recovery so I thought I'd share the answers with all of you.

First, daughter Shelley asked, "If you do get a replacement knee, will it make that cool Bionic Man sound when you leap buildings with it??"  After I stopped laughing, I thought about it and really don't have a good medical answer for that.  I do remember the Six Million Dollar Man TV show and if I ever did get a knee replacement, I would love to have that sound when I jump.  The sound I do get now while doing the recumbent bike thing is a minor clunking or clicking deep inside my knee.  It's a really lame sound Hollywood would never be interested in for a remake of the series.  Who knows, maybe Lee Majors' knee sounds like that now as he is seven years older than me.

My firend Anna in Cowlumbus commented,  "Now you are a 'Stationary'...Biker-Bitch!".  I thought that was a little demeaning and unflattering.  I've included some pictures below as I do my daily exercises to prove my point.  By the way, Although it's original name is Schwinn Recumbent Bicycle 1700, I have renamed it the Painmaster 2000.  Hope you enjoy the pics and remember, click on the pics to view the larger size. Sorry about the scar and tattoo.

  1. You know you are allowed to take off that hospital bracelet once you leave the hospital. It sort of interferes with that Bad Boy vibe your trying to throw off. ;)

    Nice bike!

    1. Can't take the hospital ID bracelet off for 2 more weeks. Every time Nic goes to a place that issues those paper bracelets, he wears them for 2-3 weeks and I'm just trying to set a new record....

  2. So when do you get to buy "tie-shoes?" Oh, that was too low, even for me!
