    Good God man I am so happy that you are okay. Crazy indeed!!! And right around Christmas of all times!!! I am sure Kathy is taking excellent care of you, but if there's anything I can do to help do not hesitate to ask. 
    Did the Vedder ticket prices have anything to do with this?

    who are you?
    this post just screams warmth and welcoming. 
    ....you know he was being sarcastic, right?

    fantastic. I was hoping it would. people say I can be a little cold sometimes.
    how could I possibly know that, Juggs?

    my apologies, Mickey, for misreading. but sarcasm can be hard to detect online without the /s.

    The only thing that really matters here is that Mamasan23 knows that he was just joshing her.

    Damn, Speedy. Sorry to hear you went through this. Stay positive and heal up quickly! :)
    Pick up my debut novel here on amazon: Jonny Bails Floatin (in paperback) (also available on Kindle for $2.99)
  • Damn, Speedy. Sorry to hear you went through this. Stay positive and heal up quickly! :)
    Thank you.
    It has been quite a ride the last month, but I am feeling better with each passing day.
    Im 56 years old and was NEVER EVER on any type of meds. Now I can open up my own pharmacy! haha
    But hopefully, in time, I can lower the amount of medication I need to be on. 
    Once my doctor gave me the ok to exercise (after 2 weeks), I jumped on the exercise bike, and I am up to 40 minutes a day. 
    Between that, changing my diet, and giving up the cigarettes, I may be around for a few more years.

    giving up smokes is a huge raise...

    quit 10 1/2 yrs ago. if prices stayed the same in that time , I have saved $26,000.

    I would expect prices there were higher than here at that time.

    Yeah, that's a great point Mickey about cigarette cost.

    Speedy, a few months not smoking can probably pay for a Disney trip
    This weekend we rock Portland

    You look at Disney prices lately? 
    A few months of no cigarettes might be able to pay for some Mickey Mouse Ears...Hahahaha

    If I am still alive, and not placed in a coffin, the wife and I are going to Disney the 1st week of May.
