    It's a big concern for both of us. What I didn't tell Rob is that I'm actually preparing a scripture reading when he arrives. He won't know what hit him. :lol:

    Hi Rob, I am glad to hear that your health is growing stronger day by day. This makes me very happy indeed. :mrgreen:

    I keep thinking it'll be like a frightened turtle by surgery-time so you keep your own cornholio. :mrgreen:

    Heard vibrations within my cells, in my cells
    Singing,
    "KEEP ON ROCKIN' ROB!!" ;)

    Love, light and hugs!! :mrgreen:
    Lots of love, light and hugs to you all!

    uhmmm uh yeah...

    what Shimmy said :oops: except I rarely talk about ANYONEs cornholio, butt in this instance, and only this once... You have the best docs around, and I am confident that it will be a temporary bag. Here's my toast to you Rob:

    Excuses are like assholes... everyone has one... Except our pal Rob will NOT settle for second best...
    Not in his profession that requires a rare mix of compassion, urgency, bravery, and strength,
    Not in his love of family, with the beautiful Codie by his side,
    Not in his choice of sports teams, could have been a Cleveland fan...
    Not in his choice of music, nuf said.
    Not in his choice of strange characters that bring him good vibes and wishes of wellness (and good beer)
    ...whatever asshole, be it newly remodeled or clean one owner, Rob will get the Best!


    talk to you soon friend. been busy as of late.

    How'd that reading go??? (hope you had your secret underwear on!!)

    Stay strong Rob. We're thinking of you....say hello to Codie for me. :)
    So I'll just lie down and wait for the dream

    a few loose ends....

    I got a cavity filled this morning. the office ipod was on straight play, rather than shuffle, and alice in chains played the whole time :mrgreen: . in utah :shock:

    someone sent a PM asking about Codie. She's doing good. she says she's about "90%" since her surgery.

    forgot to mention, I have 3 more months of chemo after the surgery :cry: .

    last night, I was feeling sorry for myself because if this damn tumor was an inch or two higher, I probably wouldn't have the "leaky butt vs. bag" dilemma. but I got over my self pity.

    finally, my cousin's funny husband came up with this:

    Pros for a bag:

    - no lineup for the washroom
    - terrific savings on not having to buy toilet paper
    - no stinky ones where you need a match to light clear the odor... (although I would put a Flammable sticker on the bag)
    - less wear on the toilet seat
    - additional warming aid on cold winter nights
    - a very good wielding weapon if you are being mugged
    - a wonderful show-and-tell at your niece and nephews schools
    - a good source of distracting your scent from your actual location if being chased by a pack of wolves in Utah


    he's a funny fucker :roll: :lol:

    This made me think of YLB. Since nobody knows the words anyway... I will be singing "Don't know wether its leaky butt or the bag..."

    Just a small update on the bracelet situation--

    We began by limiting bracelets, one per person. I still have several left, so we are going to open it up to anyone who might have already bought one and wants another. If you have already purchased one, and want another for a friend, child, spouse, christmas present (:D), please let me know and I can send you details again :D

    THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH-- especially to you Rob, for getting us the bracelets and offering up proceeds to benefit BATW :mrgreen: We have already raised well over what we anticipated --many of you folks paid more than the suggested $5.00 donation--and for that we are very grateful!!

    (BATW is hoping to launch a new project soon--BTW :D )

    puppies want to chew EVERYTHING! :lol:

    I got an interesting package today....HEAVILY reinforced with duct tape......then newspaer, then bubble wrap, then a plastic bag, then a paper bag. as soon as I felt the bottle cap, I went "whew!" because I don't do wine :lol: . my buddy Halifax2TheMax (who apparently lives in rhode island :wtf: :lol: ) sent me a nice big bottle of Ass Kisser Double IPA. It's chilling as we speak. H2TM has been a great friend. he's sent cards, books and other stuff to keep me on the up and up. just another great person on this board.

    I'm feeling pretty good these days but anxious about aug. 30. Kelley told me to focus on sept. 26 (vancouver).....but I gotta get thru aug. 30 first. I'll try to get word to someone here, as soon as the drugs wear off ;) .
