Hire a kid to play his son.

So many questions...

Is that... a My Name is Earl reference?

Is getting Sam Jackson to dress up as Nick Fury out of the question?

Maybe Teague could pull some strings... on the down low. Sam kinda owes him one, after all.

I'm trying to decide between 28 Days Later and Planet of the Apes, but leaning toward the latter because getting ape masks probably will be easier than convincing the Cedars-Sinai staff to temporarily abandon the entire floor of the hospital.

Tell him that he missed Episode VII, and that the fight coregraphy was awful, and they totally should have hired him to do it. But Disney already called and said they will not be hiring him to do the fight coregraphy for Episode VIII.

Re: So, Mike was hit by a car.

I always struggle to find words in situations like these. I’m better at hugs, but it’s a bit far from here to you guys. This outpour of love and care is heartwarming to read, so much warmth.

Get well soon Mike.

Wow, just caught this today . . . . . truly stunning news! yikes

Gentlemen, they can rebuild him. They have the technology. They have the capability to build the world's first bionic compositor. Michael Scott will be that comp. Better than he was before. Better, stronger, faster . . . able to endure more hours at a cheaper rate.

Really pullin' for the best, get well quick, Mike. A complete recovery, nothing else will do. Help us dole out more 'He-manic' Dorkman ribbing. wink

There is a small army of visual effects artists and filmmakers at your disposal guys.  You could literally coat every media surface within the radius of a small nuclear bomb with whatever you wanted.

Just you know... sayin.

Also glad to hear Mike is getting stronger, amazing amazing news.

Re: So, Mike was hit by a car.

Nice to see that the doctors are moving Mike to a trach tube and feeding tube and putting him thru surgery to set his pelvis. That suggests that he remains strong and they're prepping him to come out of sedation.

Good news!

Re: So, Mike was hit by a car.

So... I made some posts on this board for a couple of weeks and then some real world craziness distracted me from the internet and I never came back.

Well, I heard about Dorkman last night and I felt the need to come back here to express my concern.  I came to this thread and... I don't know, anything I could say seemed like a trite "me too" from someone for whom Mike is only a friend in his head, as it were.   So I didn't post anything here.

But dammit, that was wrong.  There are many strangers who feel a deep affection for Mike and I am one of them.  That should be expressed.  Those of you who have a real connection with the man, my thoughts are with you and of course with him.

Re: So, Mike was hit by a car.

I feel he should be told about the new movie as if it is a joke. He catches on, you admit you were pulling his leg about the whole thing... only for him to find out later it's true.

I was kinda hoping he would have woken up during the blood moon of the lunar eclipse, while the people in his room were wearing dark cloaks chanting something Lovecraftian. Alas, this was not the case. Still cheering and waiting expectantly for the recovery!

Mike has been moved out of the ICU and into a room in the hospital proper. The doctors feel he is stable enough to not warrant staying in Intensive Care. He still has a nurse nearby and is monitored on the regular, but the room itself (and he) is much more comfortable and quiet.
Mike is still unconscious. As mentioned before, this progress is slow. The doctors, despite moving him out of the ICU, still want to limit his visitors until he is awake and fully aware of his current situation.
