I wore compression socks once to work and when I got home I went to change and found the area with the compression sock about HALF the diameter it was supposed to be.. So, no more compression socks for me..
..and once on a dive, i used to wear a knife tied to my calf.. its a diver thing.. after the dive I came up and the bottom of my leg was half the size it should have been and the area ABOVE the knife belt was swollen to high heaven.. We were in a VERY remote part of Belize and I thought I was SCREWED and would be "bent" to high Heaven, but the swelling went down and I was fine 30 minutes later... whew.....
Friendship is like peeing your pants.. Everybody can see it, but only you can feel the warmth..
