Blair Holden Has An Accident ::

I got this short note from Buster sometime during the night hours:

Blair was riding his 'English' bike and had a blowout at 30mph He is in the trauma unit in Winston Salem w/ a broken shoulder, punctured lung, broken rib, and some other assorted injuries Should be ok over time. His cell # is 366 442 5804, but I haven't been able to reach him.
Some of you are getting a little old for this stuff.  B.


Here's wishing the best for Blair in his recovery.

Note: I just got an e-mail from Jim Ring. Apparently the above cell # is incorrect and the correct # is 336-442-5804.

Further update from Jim after speaking with Blair:

Spoke w/ Blair on the phone a few minutes ago ( his number is 336-442-5804).  All things considered he's doing well...could have and would have been much worse had he not been wearing a helmut.  He will likely be getting out of the hospital tomorrow.  We talked for 20-30 minutes and I think he was really pleased a high school classmate would call to check on him.  Buster, he's very grateful you are the "town crier" for our class and do the great job of keeping us all up to speed on each other. 
 
If you guys get a chance give Blair a call.  He'll really appreciate it, I'm sure.
 
Jimmy
