OT...Going under the knife on Friday the 12th.

[phillinois]

Just in case I don't make it back here, just wanted you all to know it's been a real damn drag knowing y'all.

No, just joshing a bit.
In reality I'm getting a rotator cuff thing done.
The only upside is the continued weekly disability checks and some good schedule 1 meds for the subsequent pain. Got that going for me.

You know, I'm vain enough that the only thing that pisses me off is when they said I couldn't apply deodorant the morning of the surgery.

Is that nuts or what?

I hope everything goes well............

 

[phillinois]

Thanks K2C.

I have a new take on life.
Don't sweat what could happen, 'cause it probably won't.
Also, live for the moment you are in now.

(especially when you reach 64)

The last time I had my rotators done they had to be turned before I had the new brakes installed. Very costly..................

 

[gtanduga]

fitty,

Best of luck to ya! Hope all goes well and you're back to throwing those 90 mph fastballs in no time!

 

[phillinois]

Thanks all ya all...seriously.

It's a journey more than a destination.

(forgiving the trite metaphor, of course)

Good luck friend. I'd like you to make a commitment to the board, IF, you make it through..... change your avatar a pic of your face during the first physical therapy session.

 

[mojo1fan]

Good luck Fitty. If you die, can I have your M&P 9c?

 

[phillinois]

No, but since I have no viable bequethees, could I interest you in a very nice, gently used Windham AR-15?

It would come with a SightMark aiming device and 25 mags full of 5.56 or 223. Plus 1000 rounds of the same...

It's uh, and being as delicate as I can...bad ***!

No really, it's amazing, the firepower these things have.
No surprise it's the most popular weapon in the USA now...and it's not even close!

 

[mojo1fan]

Thanks, but a little too big for the night stand next to my bed.

 

[wsmonroe]

Thanks, but a little too big for the night stand next to my bed.

That ain't no stinkin' nightstand gun. You buy it it's own pillow and snuggle up to it. Better than Sominex...... safe and restful, sleep.

 

[Andrew Owens]

This. And if the lady of the house isn't game, she can sleep elsewhere. You won't replace that amount of secured feeling for less than it costs to replace the lady.

 

[Andrew Owens]

Fitty, I hope your surgery and recovery are quick and without any adverse event.

 

[phillinois]

Oh man, Sominex, safe and restful sleep...You're a maniac.

New bucket list item...have a beer or a case of beer with Veritas...and soon dude!

 

[phillinois]

Thanks there Medic...I mean that, from the heart of my bottom...

Hey, are we unmoderated here or what?
Did they send you the software for the new format?
I know, a lot of personal, in your face questions...but I kind of need to know so I can tailor my my posts accordingly.

You know, no mods and I could in theory take some liberties that I wouldn't with the mod oversight.

You know me, I'll take advantage of any loophole that I can...it's just my nature.

 

[Andrew Owens]

I'll never tell fitty. Ask yourself, did I fire 29 rounds or 30 rounds?

Actually Mike and I haven't been set up yet that I know of and haven't asked. Thus far I've enjoyed not having to give the board any thought outside reading and occasionally posting. I'm inclined at this point to probably keep things that way. Moderating takes all the fun out and the pay just isn't that great. Take a side and the other side sees it inflammatory toward them. Ride the neutral line and then you're not doing anything. Don't take a side, take action, and some folks will tell you how wrong what you did is. And honestly, the emails get old.

On the plus side, I'll be spending a lot of time in a gym watching my daughter practice gymnastics, like almost all day every day I'm off work. Hard to watch the action with my face buried in a phone keeping tabs on dudes like you.

 

[phillinois]

Thanks bud, that's exactly what I was fishing to hear.

I won't take any undue advantage of it. Just wanted to know some prevailing parameters therein. That's all.

Even Mormons have guidelines to navigate to.

I'll behave of course...like I always do...

 

[Andrew Owens]

Be mindful of the report button though fitty. It really takes some steam off even needing to have forum moderators over here. That thing sends your bad behavior straight to the Man when pushed. It's the snitch switch.

 

[phillinois]

Yeah, I figured as much.

I've probably been reported by now on some other stuff.
Just didn't rise to a level to respond. It's an arbitrary thang.

I get it...

 

[csregor]

Get one of those gorgeous 265 lb nurses to apply your deodorant.

 

[TAVlonghorn]

Good luck Fitty, hope all goes well for you.

Perfectly written.

I hope it all works out Fitty....I'm sure it will. Hang in there!

To OUr One, and Only, fitty…

You're the cream in our coffee
You're the salt in our stew
You'll always be our necessity
We'd be lost without you

You're the starch in our collars
You're the laces in our shoes
You'll always be our necessity
We'd be lost without you

(Group Hug)

Take your time goin’, but Hurry Back!

Good luck Hoss....I know you will come through with flying colors and a 90 mph fastball (ok, forget the last bit)

 

[Geoff Eneman]

fitty,

if there was a "do not like" on your original post I would have selected it. When you come back and tell us everything is okay I will give you the thumbs up on that post. Keep still during the procedure. Good luck to you.

Am I the only one that hummed the melody when I read this???????

I sang to the music of Ina-Goddada-Vida when I read these beautiful lyrics.

 

[ETU]

Hope you have a fast recovery, fitty. I'm having a medical procedure Monday morning, but nothing like your surgery. It involves a 15' hose.

Good luck, friend.

 

[Sow Goodman]

Gettin the "old shootin iron" fixed are you? Here's to a speedy recovery and good medicine to help you along the way...remember to not piss off your nurse as they can make your stay utterly unbearable or merely tolerable.(this on the advice of the ex who was a nurse at Norman Regional)..

 

[Andrew Owens]

We definitely need to get you out more...

 

[RumphSquatch]

Good luck, Fitty. I hope everything turns out well. I've enjoyed getting to know you a little and reading your posts.

 

[phillinois]

Hey, really appreciate all the good vibrations from yous guys.

Means a lot.

 

[Snake98]

Praying all goes well for you!

 

[phillinois]

Special shout out to Senorita Sooner for that clever poem.

You're a doodle!

Thank You!...(I think...)

 

[phillinois]

Yep, if you recall, that's what Booley called his Mom, Miss Daisy...in Driving Miss Daisy.

Definitely a term of endearment.

 

[Andrew Owens]

Get your **** cut up already. The suspense is killing me. I want to read the opiate mixed with booze induced fitty rants right now.

 

[phillinois]

OK, but there's no booze for the next few weeks.

Doc said it would prolong the recovery.
Can't be having that.

(maybe some red wine with dinner, but that's all)

 

[Andrew Owens]

Doctors don't know anything. As long as you aren't playing Russian tennis post surgery, booze and opiates won't have any negative effects. Give the masses what they want. I expect crazy stuff on Saturday.
