The Man had a very nasty experience on the tube on the way
to meet me after work today.
The only unoccupied seat had an elderly chap’s grocery bag
on it. So, like you do he said politely
excuse me I’d like to sit there. The result was a tirade of expletives and when
he didn’t move it, The Man shifted the bag to the side of the seat and sat
down. The old b*&£*r then proceeded to dig The Man in the ribs, but being
the good natured chap my man he just ignored it.
Not only that the O B tried to trip up several the other
commuters when they were Man the elbow. Time came for The Man to get off he
turned and said to the OB you are a silly old fool . The O B didn’t even have
the excuse of being drunk.
I’ve had a good day at work and learned a new thing or two
to boot. Saw a you fellow this morning who had a limp wrist, now just hang on a
minute not that sort to wrist.
Seems he’d been out drinking the night before and when he
woke in the middle of the night he could not raise his wrist. Well that had me concerned
so off I go to get the doc, and when I described it to him he said sounds like ‘Saturday Night Palsy.’ I kid you not it really
does exist. Seems it is nerve damage caused by compressing nerves, possibly by
sitting with an arm over the back of a chair for a long time, or even sleeping very heavily on it.
Well I do try to learn something every day
