Mike: amething here, went snowmobiling, was up at 3, pain so great, i turned 
to cold seat, had to change shirts, they feel my tendion may have broken 
lose, went into irregular heart beat due to pain.  blood pressure up, 
heartbeat at 110, feel like crap.  Told doc to give me some good hippie meds 
so I can just sleep.
