Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

[Jeff Scott]

Is yours bigger than this?

 

[GwenOnBass]

Has the pipe fitter's union filed a complaint?

I thought coffee was a no-no in the world of arthritis. (You spelt coffe wrong.)

That must have been some erection.

 

[GwenOnBass]

Doctors told me to nix the offeecay. They may as well have asked me for my right foot.

And it's to the surgeon's office today to remove the dressing and see what all we've got. What I know is that indelible ink they use on patients' skin is indelible. The two lines on my left shoulder presumably served a purpose when I was under anesthesia. The writing on my leg presumably served a different purpose. I can't see that as it is under layers of dressing and bandages

An alcohol soaked sanitizer pad will remove the shoulder marks in short order.

Maybe ask the doc why they were playing tic-tac-toe on your shoulder.

Tomatoes are apparently on the arthritis nix list as well.

Since tomatoes are off the list, I won't suggest a tomato poultice to promote healing, which is a shame because it makes a great spaghetti sauce afterwards.

They even discuss it in the video......................

I grew up on tomatoes. They used to say that I was going to turn into one but that never happened.

There are way more expensive ways than a homemade poultice now. None taste as good.

Tomato

Very well done.


But why?

Yup. It's spelt 'covfefe'.

Tomato

There's nothing like home grown, vine ripened tomatoes. The hydroponic cardboard things you get in the stores don't come close. The same with "store bought" peaches; if they don't smell like peaches they won't taste like peaches.

My condolences to their family members.

It's funny how, when my heart docs became clear that I didn't give a horse's patoot about their advice to quit coffee, they stopped mentioning that it was ever important.

 

[beans-on-toast]

I have no trouble giving up food that I dislike.

{Don’t drink alcohol, don’t smoke, don’t swear. Never had a cup of coffee.}

S'more (s) on that 64" C1 pipe on the organ.



Very cool!

Pipe organs are incredible creations. I've only been able to experience two. One was at the Broad Street Church in Manhattan, the other was on tour with Boston.

 

[GwenOnBass]

My poultice today is brown paper and vinegar. And a boot. A plastic affair with a removable lining. Ski outfits thunk this up 50 years ago. What a modern ski boot manufacturer can kick off the line in no time at all is subject to a completely different set of rules and regulations as a medical device

Anyway it's a boot

(the difference between medical oxygen and industrial oxygen is the colour of the paint on the tank )

and I can sort of walk in it and stuff. There's a pump so my right foot is in a mobile bouncy castle. Geriatric medicine and sports medicine is what's practiced all under one tent

The "coffee bad" meme didn't wash here, but I'm allowed to shower again. The super-secret writing on my shoulder is gone, courtesy of rubbing alcohol and a cosmetics pad. Leg to-morrow, when I remove the bandages.

Forgot to eat today but that's rectified. That red tomato sauce stuff by any name is to me unless desperate. I really enjoy the tastes of some alcoholic drinks. What I don't so much enjoy is being drunk. Oh <ahem> that drunk. Same as eating. I enjoy some things to eat, but never to the point of holiday dinner full. That doesn't feel good to me, but on the chance it does feel good one day I have that capacity

Given the powers that be, I have to re-post this all over again! That should read as 64'!

All this talk about organs reminds me of (no... not that) Virgil Fox. Way back in the stoned age it wasn't uncommon to alter one's state and delve into some "Heavy Organ".
