love me some 55-56-57 Chevys since that's what I grew up ridin & drivin...sorry to hear about Furby(I like that lol), Floyd, you have had a rough year with your friends...sending prayers & hugz...

Chuck, glad your home safe...Megan had a white water rafting accident but is okay, Nicole put it into perspective on fb with "Thank you God for not making 7-18-10 the worst day of my life!" (think I got the date right) pretty much says it all...

HI Mike give Mom a hug from all of us...

Morning Gang!!

Mike hoping you start feeling better!

Floyd so sorry to hear about your friend

Thanks Michelle, she is doing much better, she is not near a stiff!

Hope everyone has a great Wed.

Mornin' all! Over the hump day! Still don't have my head back in the real world.

Hi Mike! I'd say listen to those lay there thoughts for a little bit. Then just work your way back into your routine little by little. Before you know, we'll be hearing about the Broccoli Road Truckers again. Definitely sending prayers for mom, hope she feels better soon.

Floyd, prayers for Furby. That is a sweet ride, and I hope he's pulling the wheels up again real soon. Missed dinner with friends again last night... think I'm going to have to have a couple tall drafts and tear up some wings to make up for it.

Michelle, I got caught up last night on FB for the most part. Wow, is that scary. Hugs for Nicole and Meagan, glad she is ok and bumps and bruises are much better than the alternative!

BobJ thinking of you too.

Thanks Chuck for the thoughts.Things are not going as planned.Been through 3 types of chemo and none is doing the job expected.
I'll make the best of whats given me....I do apreciate all the thoughts and well wishes from everyone.

Hi Bob, we are all thinking of you.

Mornin Y'all!
Went to see a sick friend in the hospital and a party broke out. Well, it seemed like it. He's all wired up like a short wave radio but he's doin good. They put in one stint and are using medication to shrink the other blockages for now.
I offered the nurse $100 to shave him, she said she couldn't cause of the blood thinners.
They kicked us out after a while cause there was 8 of us in there and more outside waiting.
I told him he would do anything for attention.

Thanks Folks for the thoughts and prayers for my little buddy. Gotta luv this big family.

Floyd, great to hear about Furby. This is a fine group to have pulling for those in need.

Hi Mike! Onward and upward is good. You'll be back in the thick of things in no time. Hopefully mom will bounce back with you.

Hey Chuck !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

go get'em bro

Mornin Y'all!
Hey Mike, do they use needle nose pliers or a screw driver to get those things off?

They sent Keith home last night. I'll find out what he's gotta do later today. Isn't modern medicine wonderful?

Morning All!!!

Mike hope all goes well!!

Floyd that is great news!!

Hey Rooster

Guys where are you??

Hope everyone has a great day

Mornin' all! Happy Friday!

hi Mike! Make sure you rest plenty if you're getting the same heat we are, and drink a lot of water. Same for mom! Stay cool and hydrated.

Christine may have something up her sleeve for racing this weekend. Hhhmmmmmm

Michelle, Rick, and the kids left for Moorehead City NC last night for a weeeknd of fising. She can't post from her crackberry, so we might not hear from her til Monday.

You all have a great weekend!

Made it back from getting the staples out,and Floyd they couldn't find their pliers to remove the staples,so I lent them my little chanellock pliers that I carry in my pocket,they weren't but 50 so it didn't take long........................ .......................................

Hey Rooster,you know us old hillybillies,we just go and get it done,no matter what the job we getter done,hope you're doing good........................ ..................................

Believe it or not,now they are ready to replace my right knee,he says the time is right,I don't know but as good as the new hip feels now,if the new total knee would make walking less painful,maybe it is time.....................

They can't do it for 90 days,because of the hip surgrey,so while I'm healing up from the hip surgrey,I'm getting ready for a new right knee,and then we'll see how it lines up,and then maybe a new right ankle,I said wow........................but if it'll take a little of my pain away,we'll we may go for it...........................................................................................

So thanks for all the well wishes guys and gal,who knows maybe it's a good idea to just totally rebuild it all,while I'm already hurting,we'll see,ya'll have at it,and have a good weekend........................................................

Hey Chuck a big 10-4 on staying cool and plenty to drink,just got back from the Dr.done got into the recliner with a cool glass of sprite,and the floor fan blowing up my short legs cooling off,well you know,and the AC blowing,so life is good today................ ............oh and a cool bowl of ice creme..........................................

Damn Mike, you gonna be a whole new man.
I wonder if there's any parts of me they could improve on? I know of one that got pretty wore out when I was younger, Hasn't had much use in a long time, maybe they could give me a new one.
Oh well! I can dream.

Morning gang,alittle too hot around to do alot,and Floyd,that little problem you're talking about,with being a type 2 diabetic,and with alot of blood issues,and med.reactions,they thought mine was a skin tag,and started to cut it off......... ..............but didn't,so as I love to say onward and well usally upward............................ ...............................

Hope everyone has a good weekend and stay cool as possible,this heat can grab you before you know it,so be careful,and prayers all around,and see ya'll afterwhile ......................................................................

Mike, that's funny. Wait till you get my age. Then you'll be happy you can stand up to pee.

Mike, sounds like they need to lift your wig and drive a new body under it, kinda like me!
Goin' in for 20 minute nose surgery on Aug. 5 and now they want me to to a cardiologist to make sure I can handle the anesthesia! Since the last time I saw him have had intestinal surgery which required anesthesia and had a colonoscopy which required anesthesia! Why for a 20 minute nose job do I need a cardiologist?
blood press (top number) hovers around 100 and bottom number in upper 60's! Last time I saw cardiologist (2004) he told me that despite my smokin' habit (mechanical) my heart was in great shape! Pulmologist pulled 13 samples of blood and didn't say a word about seeing a cardiologist! Is this all a part of "Obamacare", stupid as everything else he has done? Glad to hear you are doing well Mike and I will remember to take my fold-up pliers with me when I go it for surgery!
