OT: How can you tell if you've got a broken toe

Yes indeed, a fantastic place to scuba, and snorkel too.
I took a topo map which was also a chart, a sort of combined map, that I kept adding to with pencil over the several years that I was there. I still have that map!
I need to get it out of the closet and scan it in bit by bit, as the best diving is where all my notes are.  But this was 40 years ago, when I worked here, http://www.bbsr.edu/
Their site has recently changed, and everything there has really changed.

edit/add,,,,one of the reasons that I opted for a tour of duty there was my dad played golf there all the time, and said it was a great island, and he had not even snorkeled at his age.

The swollen/bruised knee has gotten down into my leg (yeech!) and I'm going to see the Dr. today; the toe on the other hand is perfectly fine!

Uh, gunug,  in all seriousness, don't screw around if the "swelling from your knee is down in your leg." As one who spent 6 days in the hospital with "Deep Vein Trombosis" (aka DVT aka blood clots), followed by a year (which is 6 months longer than usual) on  coumadin (blood thinners), I can tell you that you must have that checked. Soon. I hope for you it's just the bruise, but don't play around with that.  nono.gif

A couple of IMacs, an iPad, a bunch of iPhones...two of which don’t live here, but I still pay for. Oh yeah, wife, daughters, and yes—a grandson!

John, I hope they get you fixed up before you have to let your fingers do the walking. Take care! thumbup.gif
