They're waiting to really blow our minds with a great jam tomorrow.

But to be fair, I also have a funeral to go to on Saturday. Friend I used to work with before he retired for medical reasons, was only 64. So life is good, but not perfect.

good morning guys. surgery was cancelled. nothing I like better than sitting in a hospital for 6 hours and find out I have a problem with anesthesia. back in 2003-2004 they think I had malignant hyperthermia, I came to in a seizure and was being packed in ice. they are going to try and get my hospital records from NY. good luck. so now I continue waiting.

Are you going for a record on how many different conditions you can collect?
In all seriousness, sorry for the delay, but better they verify possible issues rather than just proceeding.

Today is Thursday, May 20, the 140th day of 2021.
There are 225 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History:
On May 20, 1927, Charles Lindbergh took off from Roosevelt Field on Long Island, New York, aboard the Spirit of St. Louis on his historic solo flight to France.
On this date:
In 1506, explorer Christopher Columbus died in Spain.
In 1862, President Abraham Lincoln signed the Homestead Act, which was intended to encourage settlements west of the Mississippi River by making federal land available for farming.
In 1932, Amelia Earhart took off from Newfoundland to become the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic. (Because of weather and equipment problems, Earhart set down in Northern Ireland instead of her intended destination, France.)
In 1948, Chiang Kai-shek (chang ky-shehk) was inaugurated as the first president of the Republic of China (Taiwan).
In 1956, the United States exploded the first airborne hydrogen bomb over Bikini Atoll in the Pacific.
In 1959, nearly 5,000 Japanese-Americans had their U.S. citizenships restored after choosing to renounce them during World War II.
In 1961, a white mob attacked a busload of Freedom Riders in Montgomery, Alabama, prompting the federal government to send in U.S. marshals to restore order.
In 1978, Japan’s Narita International Airport began operations after years of protests over its construction by local residents.
In 1985, Radio Marti, operated by the U.S. government, began broadcasting; Cuba responded by attempting to jam its signal.
In 1995, President Bill Clinton announced that the two-block stretch of Pennsylvania Avenue in front of the White House would be permanently closed to motor vehicles as a security measure.
In 2009, suspended NFL star Michael Vick was released after 19 months in prison for running a dogfighting ring to begin two months’ home confinement.
In 2015, four of the world’s biggest banks — JPMorgan Chase, Citigroup’s banking unit Citicorp, Barclays and the Royal Bank of Scotland — agreed to pay more than $5 billion in penalties and plead guilty to rigging the currency markets.

Ten years ago: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected the idea of using his country’s 1967 boundaries as the basis for a neighboring Palestinian state, declaring his objections during a face-to-face meeting with President Barack Obama, who had raised the idea in an effort to revive stalled Mideast peace talks. Randy “Macho Man” Savage, 58, a larger-than-life personality from professional wrestling’s 1980s heyday, died in Pinellas County, Florida.
Five years ago: A U.S. Secret Service officer shot a man with a gun who had approached a checkpoint outside the White House and refused to drop his weapon; Jesse Olivieri of Ashland, Pennsylvania, was later sentenced to eight months’ confinement.
One year ago: President Donald Trump threatened to hold up federal funds for two election battleground states (Michigan and Nevada) that were making it easier to vote by mail during the pandemic. Police ticketed seven people for cutting hair during a protest against coronavirus restrictions outside the Michigan Capitol, where about a dozen barbers and hair stylists defied stay-at-home orders to give free haircuts. Apple and Google released smartphone technology that could notify people if they might have been exposed to the coronavirus. Former Green Beret Michael Taylor and his son Peter were arrested in Massachusetts on charges that they had smuggled Nissan Chairman Carlos Ghosn from Japan to Lebanon in a box as he faced financial misconduct charges. (The Taylors were extradited to Japan in March 2021.) Government figures showed that U.S. births continued to fall in 2019, leading to the lowest number of newborns in 35 years.

The wife had a similar issue once because of some rare antibodies in her blood. She was prepped and in the OR before they realized they didn't have the proper backup blood on hand and had to pull her out. My FIL was...displeased. Lol

hello more banters than when I posted.
seeing how I was given no orders or further information on another surgery date, I am figuring I no longer need to quarantine, so I am going to try and hit the links tomorrow. 12:07 tee time.

I would maybe check with them before you do. Don't want to put it off another 2 weeks just because someone forgot to tell you before they booted you.

I just talked with the surgeon's office and though they have no information for a surgical date yet I can get out and practice CDC advisements for social distancing and mask guidelines.
afterall, I was just in a hospital with sick people so what harm would 18 holes in fresh air cause?

my neighbor across the street did that. had an issue with hogs in his yard and tried scaring them away with his .22. didn't want to hit them as he was afraid if he killed one or more he'd have to dispose of them. I told him to get a box of bird shot for his rifle. well, he thought he heard the pigs the other night but it was 2 guys breaking into his shed and one on his back deck. he peppered all three and they were all caught when one of them called 911 to file a complaint.

He's fortunate to be in FLA. In many states that'd get him jailed. As much as I think thieves should be shot, the legal environment is really hinky about shooting to protect "stuff." I wouldn't risk it for my shed.
Now, they come into the house, that's a different ballgame.

well, I can't walk without a cane and I'm flat footed on the right because my achilles tendon is severed and my calf muscle has climbed up to the back of my knee, so I guess you could call it an exercise in futility.

Besides, you're in Florida, there are no guidelines, except maybe in airports.

The last two days have felt like Fridays. Luckily, only one more real Friday to go.
