Egads, dude — that looked bad. I’m glad you’re okay. Having said that, since this was TiVoed action, I may have rewound and watched it multiple times.

It’s well worth the $9 or whatever it cost.

Solarcaine is also a god-send. It’s got benzocaine and triclosan in it which more or less numbs the area and keeps the wounds from itching or hurting. It burns like all hell for about 10 seconds after you spray it on though. (note washes off quickly in the shower though so it’s only good for during the day or on the bike use).

Hope you heal up qucik

Hope you heal quick. I got both cheeks and half my back last year. You find out how much people like you when you ask them to help bandage your hiney.

and no, i did not think to get the bandage wet so it would come off more easily. ahem.

as for the shower, i have to admit…i learned to love the burn ;)

You are the baddest mofo alive. I’m really sorry to use that language, I know this is a family show, but that’s the truth. Fast recovery, please.

I’ve had the smallest patch for a week and life stopped sucking only a couple days ago. I’ll take a million calf patches over one more but patch, fo sho…one cheek on the toilet seat is on the agenda! At least you didn’t break your right hand…butt rash and broken wiping hand are the ultimate double bummer!
