Big donor alum in need of help


Jun 7, 2019, 8:09 AM

@obed

Hope he gets sorted out before kickoff. I’m getting too old to carry him from the AOC to his box.

Maybe put some insurance on a $30k bionic part that makes your life easier.***

Contact the Richland or Lexington county sheriffs office or Dnr and that would be good training for their dive team

It's d@mn hard to scissor kick and stay afloat....

with just one leg. Your arms will be doing all the work and you'll get tired pretty fast.

That's when you roll over on your back and float.

Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.


He doesn’t need to stay afloat!

He needs to sink his butt down and look for that $30k leg

Watch some videos on magnet fishing if the leg has any metal on it (I don't know stuff like that). Some guys love to magnet fish, and might help you out for a small finder's fee. Those huge magnets will retrieve a lot of things.

Not sure if serious though, but good luck if you are.

If he's hanging with AOC he's got more problems than you can help with. Just sayin'

LOL, good one old bean!!!

Yes indeed, I do come up short in the legs department (chortle! short!) but there are a number of dead giveaways in this story that it isn't me.

-Recreating anywhere near "Lake Wateree".
-Being a passenger on a "Pontoon Boat". I've been near a pontoon boat once....when the marina workers came to take the trash from my Hatteras to the nearest dumpster.
-Being in a profession where one would suffer a "work accident".
-Having a low end prosthetic (My O&P tech doesn't get out of bed for $33k!)
-If (big if) one of my prosthetic were to cost $33k, I would simply send my manservant with a check to procure another.

God bless this man, but he should remember the adage: "I once was angry about not having a leg, until I met a man with no knees and a Range Rover Autobiography Edition."
