Well, since you all know….

my surgery went smoothly. 10 minutes prep, 15 minutes local, 15 minutes rest. All at the doctor’s office. One word: Scalpel-less. Do no other procedure. Laying here now in the basement watching blu-rays and icing on/off. Even with Tylenol 3’s, Iron Man 2 was intolerable and Anne Hathaway’s Passengers is abysmal. I’ve had to get… Read More »

Vacation time

This summer has been one of the hottest that this old man can remember. I think it’s going to be a sad day when I start to feel the chill in the air in the mornings and at nights. It has been so hot during the day that the nights have been awesome. Never a… Read More »
