- Yep! Walked Carlsbad Caverns on a broken toe a few years ago, and that's no where NEAR on the level of going to Europe! -- nm - miffed67 Jun 22, 14:53
- YUP -- nm - peglegpete Jun 22, 14:36
- It would take a hell of a lot more than a fractured toe to keep me from going to Europe. -- nm - ty97 Jun 22, 14:32
- Sure. You might even be able to get treated for it over there. -- nm - ceregon Jun 22, 14:31
- Sure. Tape it up, take some Advil and enjoy the trip. I've had a cracked big toe for 20+ years. -- nm - Krusty Jun 22, 14:30 6

- Absolutely. -- nm - kelly Jun 22, 14:29

- I refused to go to the doctor and walked around on a broken toe in Boston for a week with this exact situation. -- nm - spamlet Jun 22, 14:10 1
  - And I'd do it the same way. Just get a pair of flip flops :) -- nm - spamlet Jun 22, 14:11
- yes. -- nm - Andie Jun 22, 14:10
- All you do is "buddy tape" the toes, maybe even get a shot of steroids. Shouldn't really change the trip. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Jun 22, 14:10

    - So the Heroes product placement worked! -- nm - nubby Jun 22, 14:01 2
      - I think it was more the "wife who pushed him to test drive Nissans" deal. :) - kelly Jun 22, 14:33 1
        
        I've stated my avoidance of Nissans in the past, but it has nothing to do with the craftsmanship, so I can definitely understand the loyalty :) -- nm - Beryllium Jun 22, 15:03

        that's why you're aiming lower. -- nm - the liioulu who lost her nic Jun 22, 14:05 6
        
        I considered spelling out the women joke, but thought I was underestimating people. -- nm - loosilu Jun 22, 14:08 5
        
        I don't get why this is a woman thing. - kelly Jun 22, 14:25 4
        
        for me, it's stereotyping done by car salesmen. - b. Jun 22, 14:49 1
        
        colour be damned; cupholders are the true key to a woman's heart -- nm - Beryllium Jun 22, 15:02
        
        it's just a stereotype. My dad *loves* white cars. My mom doesn't really care. -- nm - loosilu Jun 22, 14:30 1
        
        So your dad is a racist -- nm - amoxy Jun 22, 14:33

Observers seem to think the Sandusky jury may be "in the home stretch," going by the things they're asking the judge about. -- nm - mara Jun 22, 13:33 5
- I was wondering, if somehow he walks, can he face a new trial if his son presses charges? -- nm - loosilu Jun 22, 13:55 3
  - This was discussed yesterday. Dawson laid out the double jeopardy risks there. Short answer, most likely yes since the son just came forward. -- nm - pmb Jun 22, 14:30 1
    - thanks, I had missed that. -- nm - loosilu Jun 22, 14:31
  - i would vote yes despite how shaky double jep might be, a. incest and/or abuse of a minor you have parental control isa differnt charge, b. let him... - zeitgeist Jun 22, 14:01
