![]() Lots of cartoons have spoofed Mac computers with different fruits, and pears are the most common. I remember the peach in Jimmy Neutron, but my favorite was a banana. I forget what cartoon that was though.

And what about now that Foul Larry is living at the house? It can't be totally comfortable living in the same house as the guy who REALLY messed you up! Should I give on using spoilers? xD

![]() Sorry if I'm going off topic here, guys, but it got me thinking, what exactly did happen in the "8-year-gap" that CG mentioned?
I assume he probably did as much help as he could to other people before coming to Foster's, much like he did in the film on the way back to meet Larry for his rematch. And during that time, he would probably have been cemented as a sort of legend, like that judge mentioned. This idea of Wilt becoming a sort of urban legend during that time reminds me of a book I once read called "Maniac Magee". It was about a boy called Jeffrey Magee, who, after his parents die in a trestle accident, is sent to his loathsome aunt and uncle who, because they are Catholic, can't divorce, and try to split the house in two (two toasters, two TV's, etc.) and try to have Jeffrey for themselves. During a school play eight years later, he runs away (after which we are told that noone knows what happened to him during a year-long gap). After this period, he arrives in the town of Two Mills, a town so racially segrigated that one side of the town, called the West Side, is reserved entirly for White people and the opposite side, the East Side, reserved for Black people. He meets up with a black family, and moves in with them, much to their supprise. During their time with them, he performs amazing feats such as running on a rail and untieing a knot that noone else in the town could untie, causing him to become an urban legend and be known as "Maniac Magee". I'll continue the story if you guys want, but what I'm saying is that during the time after he left Jordan and before the time he came to Foster's, maybe he helped out people so much that too became an urban legend? |

Wilt's "legend" status took place during the movie, as he made his way cross-country on that rusty old lawnmower, NOT during that eight-year-period between him being injured and arriving at Foster's. It was a joke, really, him being considered a "legend" by the people of the small town(where obviously there were no lawnmowers or lawn-care specialists)because he, being Wilt, felt he needed to help out by annonymously cutting the grass for everyone, a good deed that the judge felt needed rewarding by releasing Wilt and dropping the charges against him. His status as a "legend" was in that little town only, and due solely to that one incident. There's nothing in the judge's speech to indicate he'd heard of Wilt except because of that. He even refers to Wilt as "The Lawn Ranger"! pitbulllady |

As for the time-frame of the arm having to be removed, it would be very likely that infection/ necrosis(gangrene) would have set in fairly quickly, which is why crushing injuries are so serious. Injuries like that not only can break bones and disrupt blood flow, but also rupture individual cells, releasing their toxins into surrounding healthy tissues, poisoning it, since the blood supply is unable to carry it away. Most crush injuries to limbs result in amputation, even if the bone isn't broken, for that reason. Doctors are afraid to take a chance of the person dying just to try and save an arm or leg. Swelling in the non-elastic fascia, or connective tissue between muscles and bones, also further compromises blood flow. There's no way that Wilt would have survived for eight years with a necrotic limb. It probably wasn't too long after he received the injury, and left the scene that he would have started to become severely ill, not just from pain. He might have had to go it without any sort of rehab(and Wilt is just the sort to succede by sheer willpower alone), but he wouldn't have lasted long without some heavy-duty medical treatment and surgury following that incident. pitbulllady |

![]() Has anyone heard of the movie titled "The Straight Story"? It was a movie about an old man who rides a lawnmower (Like Wilt does) cross-country to vist his terminially ill brother.
Unlike Wilt he gets much further. The old man also performs some good deeds like Wilt and helps people learn stuff about themselves. |
