For those that know him, our good buddy AwkwardMoose attempted to perform a triple lindy a couple of stories off the ground and missed the pool. After 3 surgeries and a skin graft his foot is now re-attached and he's in good spirits. He's over in Foothills Hospital on the seventh floor in unit 71. For what he's been through I think he's in pretty good spirits. Probably just glad to get some time off work. 
For anyone else thinking of washing their second story windows this spring, make sure your ladder is properly secured!!
Get well soon buddy!!

Daam Awkward, they have services for that.

Good thing I hung my Christmas lights the way I did...mucho safe way to take them down.
Hang in there. I'll bet that heavy cast would make for quite a monumental kick to Ronin's hind end, eh?

Kenny, make sure you ask to see the polaroids. Just make sure you haven't eaten recently. His foot was practically torn off and he has the pics to prove it. He's gonna be out of action for a while...

Where are the pictures of the window?
OK, now that all the Axes are safely stowed away for Apu will someone go and hide his ladder too? 
Fireworks will have to be monitored too before another limb is nearly severed 
Will have to drop in on ya bud! Get better soon!

As of today you should be able to catch him at home at the end of the day. The cast comes off today for an inspection of the skin graphs. If all is good he's on his way home. They have got him all screwed together.
Feel for the guy biting this, this time of year. Bean there once with a blown up collar bone.
He says he's going to post the photo's. There pretty hideous.

Hey Vern hold my beer while I get a picture. Must be reason why he picked awkward moose as a nickname.

Up and down the stick for how long? Racking back on a trip, and one window ................... Heres to a speedy recovery bud. See ya at the camp site. Give a hollar if you need a hand with anything.

Vern was looking good today and chomping at the bit to be sent home after more than two weeks and 2 surgeries so far.

Thanks everyone.
It’s amazing how one can do the most retarding things in life and come out unscathed. Yet, the performance of some simple task (with a bad outcome) can change your life forever.
All I can say is …’a momentary laps in judgment will create a life time of knowledge that one will never forget…’
See you all soon.
