Got The Splint Removed!

Although my hand is still bloated and swollen, and my second metacarpal is still fractured, the doc removed the splint. It looks pretty gross and I plan to add a picture of it later.

I have two splint pics below that were taken by friends with high tech pda cameraphones:

This picture was taken with a blackberry of some kind. It was August 2, 2007 and I was in Spingfield Park in Queens to see Roy Ayers. When I had the cast on, I was supposed to keep my arm elevated. So I went to a lot of concerts, aoided auctions (for the most part) and kept a ready supply of questions. "You in the back! You've had your hand up for the whole presentation. Do you have a question?"
"Yes, I do. I'd like to ask the chairman..."

This picture was taken with an iPhone on August 5, 2007. I was bopping around the city with some friends who used to live in New York. I had just recieved a phone call from my nephew, who was experiencing culture shock upon his return to Memphis. He asked where I was. I said, "Houston Street."
"So, you're like, in SoHo?"
"Actually, I'm in the middle of Houston Street. Neither SoHo or NoHo. I guess I'm just in Ho."
A meaningless milestone: this is the first picture ever taken of me with an iPhone.

More importantly, there's a terrific sandwich place called Ashkara right across the street from where mennu's standing. They bake their own baguettes, and gosh darn it are they delicious. Raise your hand if you love the Ashkara Meorav!

Tzachi, you've got a one track mind. All you think about are sandwiches!
