If you guys wanna see really gross stuff, I should find and scan the pictures that my surgeon gave me from the inside of my knee when i got my acl done. Its disgusting.
Why they would give me pictures of that Ill never know! (actually I know why its so they can show you whats going on in there later, but still!)
Figured you would like that clip, Sheldon. We have a crap load of those pictures floating around between mine and my Marley's knee.

Holy shat!

Just be careful what you do with those deck trimmings Jeremy...and make note to wash the deck afterwards. Nobody wants to see deck trimmings everywhere...

You know, come to think of it, decks that are properly trimmed probably get varnished more often...

No kidding. Ever since last night, Joe's been on a posting rampage. He's got nearly 30 posts in this thread alone since it started last night. LOL

The worst part is seeing how they move the knee around when your under, gives me the shivers.

I'm always very careful when trimming around the deck. Nobody wants to damage the deck while trimming. I also make sure that what is trimmed off is properly cleaned up. I never trim the deck without cleaning up afterwards.

I do notice that when the deck is properly trimmed, it seems to get a coat of the shiny stuff more often.

My problem is I need to stand on my deck to trim my bush. Might just have to hire a mexican to do that.

Damn, Barry, your deck is huge if you have to stand on it to trim it. Kinda sounds painful if you ask me. I would think you would want to trim your own bushes, never know if they will take as much care with your bush if you sub it out.......

I don't think trimming the deck would be wise, Scott. The bushes around the deck are the only thing I recommend trimming.
