It would be fun to throw a couple 'Birds and one of the 360s in the back of the van. It's not all that far.
LOL - she actually never came at me with an axe thank god (only because there wasn’t one handy). But one time she did come after me with a butcher knife and another time a hammer. Her favorite trick was to try to shove me down the stairs when I wasn’t expecting it, which she tried on several occasions.
After our divorce she was later diagnosed as suffering from schizophrenic manic depression - that explained a lot. And for those that doubt karma - fast forward about thirty years after our divorce, she apparently was inebriated and died as she fell down a flight of stairs and broke her neck. Wouldn’t wish that demise on anyone including her, but it sure makes you think twice about your actions and how you treat others.
Totally unrelated…
PillO, after reading your medical posts about your hand surgery I decided to “man up” and see a surgeon about correcting my right hand ring finger that’s been painfully locking up for about a year now. Just had the operation today, basically slice the palm open and free the finger tendon from the obstruction. It’s nothing compared to what you’re going through and should have a quick recovery. I did ask the doctor how soon I could eat watermelon, he said right away with a fork but nothing messy in the right hand until the dressings are no longer needed.

Some great ones here, probably not all inclusive, but still some great ones…

It's a one day haul @$$ down, you can do it.......
I still think motorcycle tires right off the bat when someone says Dunlop...
Will definitely send reminders as the dates get close!
Thanks! I absolutely will.
Heck with the book. I want to see the movie (aka instructional video for others).
Thanks for the reminder. Stupid show off bird.

Don't let facts get in the way of a good story! As Hollywood would say, based on a true story... Meaning, material facts have been fabricated, but the the important things, like who gets what cut of the gross, are written in stone.

Well done. Compartment release? I assume all done under a local as an outpatient procedure. Plastic surgeons are really well versed in pain-free surgery and minimal impact (cosmetic and functional). Having my cubital tunnel released, I felt so good, I never needed any narcotics (or any other pain relief). Still, enjoy the drugs.
To my mind, there is never a reason to forego treatment. All you are doing is robbing yourself of useful time.
As always, I may be an outlier.
