Sounds you don’t want to hear at your surgeon’s office: an electric drill.<\/p>\n

Not just a drill powering a bit pushing a screw through wood, but that screeching screw in a knot and the drill doesn’t have enough mustard to force it through sound of shrillness. <\/p>\n

That was late today. One of the ortho’s assistants was impressed to note I was not in a brace, but it has been a while. She didn’t know the case. She did tell me to be careful climbing onto the examination bed, so maybe she did know the case.<\/p>\n

Anyway, took another X-ray. The doctor asked me to raise my hand over my head, I can. He asked me to put my hand behind my head. I can. He said he was pleased with my progress and that I was making an excellent recovery. <\/p>\n

I told him I’ve felt pretty good the last few days, at least when I don’t overdo it. I’m having muscle spasms, but we think that might be the driving. <\/p>\n

He told me the pain will go away by Christmas.<\/p>\n

In happier news, I work on a beautiful campus:<\/p>\n

\"ReidChapel\"<\/center><\/p>\n

That’s A. Hamilton Reid Chapel, which I’ve posted here a few times before. It was built in the image of the first Baptist church built in the Americas which was, apparently, in Rhode Island<\/a>. You can see the resemblance. <\/p>\n

The coolest science video<\/strong> you’ll see today, where a Stanford scientist explains how his team’s research is besting steroid-enhanced performance. <\/p>\n

“What we can do” he says in the video, “by extracting heat from one hand, is we can dramatically improve performance.”<\/p>\n
