Simon Cowell breaks back on bicycle accident

[Darrell KSR]

Apparently had an accident while trying out his electric bicycle. Simon is a 60, and it reminded me that there are a number of us in that General age range that exercise. Last year while doing something as simple as running I dislocated and broke my thumb in two places requiring surgery. That's a pretty minor accident, as far as accidents go, but it wasn't like I was involved in an ultrahazardous activity, either.

Anyway, just a reminder to all of us to be careful out there.

Oh very much yes. Slip and fall on my climb to the M is my #1 concern, right after not doing it and exacerbating my heart disease.

Dealing with a sever pinched nerve in my neck and significant arthritis in my left shoulder currently. I had a cortisone shot which has worked wonders so far for the shoulder itself and seeing a chiropractor weekly to calm the nerve.

I've been pretty much incapacitated for nearly a month.
