    "pulled a tendon"

    If that don't heal right it may bother you for the rest of your life.

    PS - A cracked muffler bearing ain't no fun neither

    I ran my blinkers dry of fluid once...trying to bleed those is a real PITA.

    Ripped the Distal (lower) Biceps Tendon off my radius bone a couple years back, that was pretty funny looking till it was repaired.

    Pulled tendon is never a good thing. Being that they don't like to heal, unless you have the money to go under the knife I would suggest not lifting anything for a while.

    Nothing worse than locking your keys in a convertible with the top down during a rain storm.
