SAM..........How are you getting along?  Well I hope :) 

Take your time and listen to the Doctors' advice.  Have you tried to fit a new helmet?  You may need one if you ride along with 2$ Bill ;D

Tell Bill the 410-head is now in Wisconsin.

Getting there very slowly mate, the slightest thing tiers me out.
I'm down from 160 to 135lbs.

You're getting there. As the healing progresses the weight will go back on. I dropped 15 and it's back. We'll give Benton's cooking the benefit of the doubt  ;)

A few pints and a good feed at the Black Swan will help put the weight back on Sam :)
