Broken bone, Leica mishaps - I fell face first in the Sierra Nevada
mountains on a perfectly flat path and landed on my M8 with a Visoflex

The camera was fine.  I fell two weeks ago in the bathroom and broke my
nose again.  I'm going to look like a prizefighter soon!

Hope your wrist heals quickly!
