Alright guys, gather around the campfire...

It all started back about... 4 months ago?

I lost my job and I was scraping for things to eat... I had to find a job... and luckily, I did. It's so weird how fate can be so cruel... well, anyways, I was about to go into my first day of work, I was actually a couple blocks away from it when some guy in a Escalade (let me tell you, those things are not as safe as they seem to be!) T-BONED me! The worst part was that it was a green light for me, it was at an intersection, it hit my driver side door and knocked me unconcious. Well, after that, I woke up in the hospital and.... (fast forward) .... I lost feeling in my lower left thigh though it's fully operational, the paramedics said that if the door of the 8 went in another 2 inches, I would've been dead.... and, as for those that knows me (stares at Atilla, dozer), I lol'ed at the doctor saying that I had God Mode turned on and that's how I survived. Anyways, I went through alot of therapy due to my semi-paralyzed left thigh over the last couple of months. As for the guy in the Escalade, god rest his soul... By the way, due to this whole accident thing, I NEED A JOB! ASAP!!! I'm living off what my auto insurance paid me for my beloved but now totaled 8...

Holy **** John - I'm sorry bro...big time. I'm really glad you made it out though. God Mode FTW!

So many questions tho bro - have you finished rehab? Can you walk? If so, can you drive? Are you still livin' at the same spot?

Hit me up, I might have some connections to a job placing place that hooked me up...

Once again, still glad you're alive and kickin' bro

I'm still living at the same place, yes, I have full functionality, full mobility, just no feelings in my left thigh. I walk fine and everything, remember, if you were to shoot me, shoot my left thigh! That's the only spot that God Mode is currently turned on for!

AND YES! GET ME A JOB!
