This guy I work with supposedly got into a car accident and cracked several ribs, but he's been emailing all day and I think maybe my boss is just dumb and something got misunderstood. He was in the accident late last night and has been emailing long, coherent emails since early this morning. I would have thought he'd be on too much pain medication to do that. And wouldn't you have other significant injuries if the accident was bad enough to crack ribs?!
