For those of you who don’t know, every now and again my wrists hurt LOTS. It’ll go away for weeks, sometimes months, then I’ll just move my hand funny, or put pressure on my wrist in a dodgy way and boom, hurts for about a week.
Random wrist pain came back in my left hand on Monday sometime. Carrying crates while closing The Southfield earlier tonight has made it painful to even move my fingers. Not fun.
Anyone have any ideas on how to make the pain go away? Without drinking myself to oblivion / taking painkillers, that is. I want to deal with the cause, not the effect. Keep it warm? Keep it cool? Amputate? There’s got to be something I can do…
(PS. I only just discovered that Google does that. Click the Southfield link above to see what I’m on about…)

On Monday, September 3, 2007, Steve Fossett, the first person to fly a plane around the world without refueling and the first person to fly around the world in a balloon went missing in Nevada. An airplane he was flying failed to return. No one has any idea where he is. Click on the following link for the Wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Fossett.
Through the generous efforts of individuals at several organizations, detailed satellite imagery has been made available for his last known whereabouts.
HITs have been created to ask volunteers to help review these images and flag potential areas of interest which will be instrumental in the search and rescue efforts. If you are interested in helping, please click on the following link to participate in the search effort:

This is a race against time and any help you can provide will make a huge difference.
Friends and family of Steve Fossett would like to thank you for helping them with this cause.
