What is your favorite bone?

[Jara sang]

Coccyx for me. Any word that ends in "ccyx" is tops in my book. Plus it's fun to think of humans with tails.

My favorite bone would get this thread locked tight as a drum.

10. A part of mine is no longer with me,

and I am an inch shorter than I used to be. :-(

[merh]

11. How did you do that?

:shrug:

[Dave Reynolds]

13. Surgical removal,

a shave of the bone and the removal of an intervertebral disc. Followed by a shortening of the muscles and tendons on each side of the spine.

I hate when that happens.

And from, of all things, a frisbee-playing accident.

[merh]

15. Eww, bless your heart and your back bone.

:hug: Hope you are all healed now.

[Dave Reynolds]

16. Quite well-healed,

almost normal, even.

Thanks for the :hug: !

[merh]

19. Any time.

thanks for the hug back :hug:

6. Humerus

The tip of which is your "funny bone," of course. <G>

7. close, but . . . "funny bone isn't actually a bone at all"

.
.
.

But you knew that,

right?





"But your funny bone isn't actually a bone at all. Running down the inside part of your elbow is a nerve called the ulnar nerve. The ulnar nerve controls feeling in your fourth and fifth fingers. It's also one of the nerves that controls the movement of your wrist.

You get that funny feeling when the ulnar nerve is bumped against the humerus (say: hyoo-muh-rus), the long bone that starts at your elbow and goes up to your shoulder. Tapping your funny bone doesn't do any damage to your elbow, arm, or ulnar nerve. But it sure feels strange!"
