Best of luck Ron; you'll be feeling much better soon I'm sure..
Perhaps we should open a new thread in the Mafia Private topic: "The Cut Report..." We're having so many surgeries this year we should keep score and just keep posting a pain level.
I suggest using Kirby’s (SL Trib columnist) DAPS. He said:
“When it comes to measuring my own pain, I use DAPS (Dumb A$$ Pain Scale) because it's what I'm most familiar with. It's used mostly by veterinarians, but also by people whose life experience has somewhat dulled their pain receptors.
For example, a one on DAPS is pain consistent with a slap in the head, stubbing a toe while drunk, a Chihuahua bite or being fired.
Note: All of these would be a two or even a three on any other pain scale with the exception of WPAS (Wimp Pain Assessment System), where they would most likely be classified as fatal.
A DAPS Level Two Pain would be consistent with a punch from an adult, getting whacked in the head with a door and being poked in the eye with anything other than a soldering iron
Three: The loss of more than two fingernails simultaneously, baby sitting an annoying nephew or working mandatory overtime.
Four: A paper cut on your tongue, a scorpion in your nose or an entire episode of "The View."
Five: Habanera pepper juice enema, a federal audit or cutting your own hair with a belt sander.
Six: That thing with Oprah and the golf shoes, or getting sat upon by a flatulent camel.
Seven: Divorce, a canceled hockey season or being struck by a motorcycle, piano or cow while completely sober.
Eight: Having your feet nail-gunned to the floor of a room in a house which is either on fire or belongs to Mike Tyson.
Nine: Polka.
Ten: Being shot with a Taser or hearing your spouse ask, "Where've you been?" when she already knows.”
