I’m posting this for the benefit of long time readers and participants of CHB and his Blue Ridge Muse website who’ve noticed the static condition of CHB and the Muse in terms of updated editorials and articles of interest.

Doug has sustained critical, life-threatening injuries associated with a motorcycle accident.

I’m posting the two links, one relating to his long time both love and enjoyment of riding motorcycles along with the link describing his recent road accident involving a collision with a cow.

Although I haven’t posted in some time, I still read CHB and the Muse regularly, both fine websites.

I, as no doubt many other long time followers of CHB and the Muse are praying for his speedy recovery.

Sandy, thank you! I have registered, I just need for the powers that be to approve me.
My prayers are with Doug. I agree with you. Doug had the last say over the cow. Can you imagine the blue streak of vocabulary that went thru his head? LOLOL
If that cow survived, she’s gonna pay!

Scoutgal opened a thread based on Doug’s accident.

This new place will be sent to Doug when he gets out of the hospital. Come on over to Reader Rant and send your best wishes to our Chief. His wife, Amy is by his side and he is in the best of care in a well-respected Hospital. If you choose not to enter Reader Rant, I will send the messages from this site to Doug when he is able to understand who we are and what we have to say to him.

Well if a good pissing off helps get Doug’s attention, I can only say, nobody does it better….
Thanks for the update. Doug is on my prayer list.

Sherry, I am indeed wacky enough to do anything to get the Chief back to work. I spend much of my time pissing him off and will do what it takes because he is a hero in my book.

Yipes! Poor Doug. Ironically, I just had a discussion with a friend about bikes on the road. My complaint is that driver don’t respect bikes, pull out in front, cut them off. Having worked in an ER and hearing the sound of asphalt be dug from the skin, I discourage my friends from bikes on the road.
Well, now I am learning, cows have no respect for bikes either.
Sorry Doug. Hope you are back soon. Sandy is just wacky enough to sell CHB to HuffPo, so I would consider her comment if I were you.

Scout who takes care of Reader Rant called the hospital and poor old Doug had his face messed up. He is still in ICU so he cannot take calls or visitors. We are using Reader Rant to discuss his condition and he is awake. I wrote him a note and told him to get back here or I would sell CHB to “The Huffington Post.” That should piss him off.

Doug is one swell fella and until he gets his sorry ass back here, he will be pissed.

I brought the paper article here and it was not accepted. He hit a cow on his motorcycle and is in critical condition in the hospital. I will add more when I can.

I didn’t know he had an accident. I will try and find out.
