WormGuy Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I purchased an older tractor and have been working on it off & on for almost a year. I had an oil leak that I could not find or fix. I took it to a repair guy and in order to pay for the repairs I bartered my labor. Everything was moving along until yesterday. I was tightening a bolt and the wrench slipped & I had to make a choice of smashing my face or the side of my head into the exhaust manifold. I choose the side of my head. I just got back from having a CAT scan of my head because the doctor thinks I could have cracked my skull or I my have an internal bleed. So........here I sit waiting for them to call me to see what happens next. I'm not worried, the tech who did the scan said she didn't even see a brain, so at least nothing can leak out.

WormGuy Posted September 7, 2014 Author Share Posted September 7, 2014 Yeah, it won. It just sat there while I was curled up in a ball on the ground. Dumb tractor, John Quote Link to comment
