James was in a car accident. He's been absent from work by doctor's orders and I can only imagine that if he can't make it in to work that exercise is out of the question.
James is down and maybe out. Given my last workout wingman's accident that broke his ankle, I think I may have begun a "Curse of the Dyingman". Anyone agreeing to exercise with me to keep each other on our toes and achieving ever higher levels of fitness is doomed to suffer a debilitating injury.
If I were a superstitious man, I might be inclined to discontinue this motivational exercise, but I breathe the atmosphere of an academic environment. Such things are not a part of me and I may be seeking a new victim soon. I'll give you the heads up as I hear more about James. He's being tight lipped about his condition and I'm not inclined to pry.
