Subject: [BARGE] Trip Report

Most of my trip to BARGE was routine.  I didn't make any
horrible decisions, but I didn't cash in any events and
didn't get particularly close to cashing in any of them.
 =20
My last day at BARGE was the best=85 Sunday brunch,
post-event at the Goldmans, Patti B graciously inviting
me up to the United lounge to wait for a late flight=85 but
then I made my worst decision of the whole trip.

After getting to SFO at 1:30 AM and getting my bags, I
called my shuttle company=85 no vans available=85 and
so I went down to where the taxis were=85 and the bus
serving my neighborhood once an hour zoomed by.
I yelled Stop That Bus=85 no one did=85 and so I tried to
catch it and went flying above=85 and then onto=85 a=20
concrete sidewalk.  Oops.

Two fractures in my right shoulder, both displaced...
surgery once the swelling goes down, is signed off on by
insurance, surgeon is available=85 followed by rehab.
At least a month on disability at 70% salary (at least
it's non-taxable).

I should have stood in Vegas=85
