Due to years of running and old age I had to get Achilles tendon surgery yesterday.

The whole leg was numb until 1 am and then OMG the pain. The Oxycodone doesn

Sorry to hear that Jeff, any time we have an injury that prevents us from enjoying some the things we like the most, besides the physical pain comes the emotional pain. I for one have been without an S for a while now not because of injury but rather by choice and every time I see an S the streets I get emotional, I loved my car. I can imagine you walking into your garage and looking at the S and not been able to drive it. I can only imagine, it would drive me insane!! I hope you fully recover and go back to your daily routine

PS. On a happier note, now you know what kind of pain Achilles went through before he died

if you need someone to keep those tires fresh, I'm sure there will be many takers.

You would really like it now. I bought new Falkens and one or possibly two of them are bad so I put the A6s back on.

Willie, both you and Indy are more than welcome to drive my car when I am up and about but not on the track were you would like.

I could fly but just not stop. It requires toe pressure to stop.

No, I am out for at least 3 mos.
