    @shanaber the CPM is a continuous passive motion machine. I want those dog tags for 2020!

    Here's some examples. It's to help the joint gain full ROM. It's not as bad as I thought it'd be.

    Well, we've slogged our way to 1938.
    There were a ton of ugly things that happened that year; I choose not to mention them.
    However, Superman made his first appearance that year.
    We sure needed him...

    When I was in HS my stepdad bought me a 1956 Ford Falcon for $50! I sold it a few years later to a collector for $800. We were moving to No CA and there was no way it would make it that far 😊

    I had a 1964 Plymouth Valient. Bought it for 100$ when I was 16, thought I'd fix it up... It just didn't happen. I never got to drive it. I didn't get my license til I was 18.6 and don't know why I had this idea that somehow I'd know how to fix it. I dated too many mechanics I guess. So first real car was a 1988 Pontiac LeMans. I miss the ol' Valient.

    I'm told that about this time period my mother had gone into the cellar to shovel coal into the furnace. I wedged myself in my walker between the wall and the cellar door, and my mom had to climb up the coal chute to get out of the cellar.

    1987. I should have signed up for the Army, Dropped out of school.

    I knew everything and nothing all at once. It was like living in the schoidenger equation.

    Well, here we are in 1992. Stationed at West Point; getting prepared for my first retirement, and trying to figure out what I wanted to do during the next phase of my life.
