OK, I see posts here, "I got engaged", "I made a purse" ... no problem and congratulations to both of you, sincerely.

I ran over my foot with my car today! I had drained my Optima by leaving my WiFi on for a couple days of non-run time. Had to get it jumped (NOBODY kills an Optima, but I did).

In the process of arranging the vehicles for the jump, pushing my disabled car back and forth, I got my foot run over. The damned thing was actually at a standstill on top of my foot. Thank got I don't drive a Hummer. I estimate the pressure on the wheel was about 500 pounds. It hurt.

I guess it would hurt more to be stepped on by a horse, or cow, but I've never had that pleasure.

The YO
a car isnt so bad. i am an auto technician , and i saw a guy lose all of his toes once when using an undercar scissor style lift. he was standing there lowering the car , and his foot was barely under the edge of the lift , when everyone in the shop dropped their wrenches , torches , etc to come running. the steel toe had crushed , and went right trough all flesh and bone.

i had the pleasure of having the same lift come down on my foot , but i never wear steel toes , so all it did was squish the hell outta my foot. luckily for me it barely came down , and the guy working the lift got it back up instantly. no dmage other than bruising.


and yes , i have killed an optima (a red and a yellow top) ... dont ask about the guage wire i was using though...

glad youre ok

Other hardware if it’s still usable.
Those I loan out to/give to thank you.
