About 40 years ago,I TA'd a lab in general anatomy. The students were all prospective PT majors and had to take the course and lab to apply for the major. I had to teach cat dissection to them. I would go in on Saturday afternoon and do that weeks dissection myself. One day I had to look at the lab manual to be sure I got the correct muscle when a student asked me what its was. They then said why did I have to look it up. I said I have to waste my Saturdays teaching myself this. A few students got squeamish when we had to pith a frog or start the dissection of the cat. I told them "Get used to this, next year you have to dissect a real human body". After a quiz once, I was cleaning up the lab and found the answers to the quiz written down in peace on the black lab top. Had to wipe down the benches before and after every quiz. Did have a little fun. There was a skeleton in a box that we had to use when we were talking about the skeleton. Found a shirt and put it on it. Got a Burger King crown and also put it on it and rolled printer paper to make an enormous joint. Would have the box at the front of the class and wheel out the skeleton. I felt old when I did PT after my transplant this Feb. I realized that the students I TA'd were probably their bosses or had retired recently.

Looking out the window.😁 Seriously, if lightning hits really close, I am jumpy. Back in 1963, we had lightning hit a tree on the property next door (was a vacant lot then). Then sometime in the 70's it hit a bigger tree on our property about 50 ft away from the 60s strike,. It was adjacent to our detached garage Was old and falling apart. The charge jumped to the wires on the garage and tripped the breakers in the house. No damage but I happened to be facing the draped window and saw a huge orange and white flash and a tremendous rumble. Thought a nuke had gone off.

While I was in the ICUI was so pumped up with antibiotics and painkiller that one day, I soiled myself 9 times. I still had enouf\gh humility that I was apologizing profusely to the nurses. The dialysis I had during kidney's "wake up" period (2 weeks) was a breeze. But what was a real b was recovering from the incision. 35 staples. Healed in about 2.5 months. Then the director anted to see if it healed ok. She says there was fluid under age skin (none Around the new kidney). Gets the scalpel out and drains it. 5 weels of a wound vac on it for 24/7 and several more weeks of visiting nurses changing the dressing 3x/week. Taking my vitals morning and night is a snap as well as taking the 26 pills a day. Just can never have grapefruit or pomegranate ever again. They inactivate the anti-rejection meds.

If you saw me before July, I had one. I still carry one on me and in the car especially during the cold and flu season.

I used to get the flu bad about every 3 years (usually when the flu the changed), as in loosing 10 lbs in a week or so. Then started getting the flu shot yearly. Not had it since. While in the ICU after my transplant, I caught parainfluenza which is a cousin of the "normal" flu bug. Normally, the ICU is a day or so, but my O2 level was in the 80% range and I had to stay there until it was in the 90s (a week). Plus I was pumped full of innunosupressants so that the new kidney wouldn't be rejected. I am on them the rest of my life but in August (6 mos) I was cleared to get vaccines. I got the shingrix(chicken pox/shingles) and pmeumonia shots in 2023 before the transplant. In November I got the Flu and COVID shots and went for the RSV shot the week before christmas. I explainedtp the pharmacist that I am immunocompromised and over 65. But they said since I don't have asthma or COPD, they weren't giving ne the RSV shot. I will ask the transplant center about that when I go for a checkup in February.

I wore my Bills Mafia t-shirt to the SF area when I visited friends in 2022. They were asking me what it meant. I said being a bills fan is like joining the Mafia.Once you join you can never quit.

He reportedly made 5 videos while he was driving to NO expousing his plans and supply for ISIS. But no, it's not terrorism

A massive crowd? Set the massive crowd of last night on them.

Jan 20 can't come soon enough.

You are right. It is young drunk and stupid. Old age is a B*tch.

Young ,fat, and stupid are no way to go through life, son.

What would Brian Boitano do?

Lived in the SF Bay area for~ 20 years. When he would come to Niners ad Raiders games, we would tailgate and wir\h him and get him the tickets to the game. First time I met him was in Phoenix 25 years ago. Did the bowling ball shot then. Also met him again twice in San Diego. Earlier than that, I may have been on the same plane as he was from Oakland to Seattle. I remember the flight crew asking the person who checked a bowling ball to coH He has a great memory. I went to Hammers lot at the Philly game about 5 yeats ago. I told him that I last met jim about 15-20 years ago in SF and Oakland.He says "weren't you in Biotech?".which I was cback then. He also attends the draft every year along with Mark Vader(from this board) and Cowgirls Fan (a Dallas fan also on this board). ... Good God almighty! which way do I steer...

Gilliam. Bring back the Shake, Rattle, and Rolle play from the 90s. For the youngsters it was Kelly shaking it (faking it) to Thurman , having him rattle up the line and Butch Rolle go out for the pass. When we were on the one or two yard line and they brought in Rolle, you knew for a fact they were running that play. I believe one year all of his catches were for TDs except one.

2 ½ of the people in this photo are now dead.

He did have heart surgery not too long ago.

I hear that he doesn't do the condiments anymore late in the season (doctors orders).

Even now at this minute, he is more intelligent than Biden.

Have Dion brush up on his receiving this week.

Amish Paradise would have been more fitting.

No. J!...E!...T!...S! SUCK! SUCK! SUCK!

They put Josh on twice! And he is still playing!😁😁😁 😁

My brother or I mowed the lawn for years. My dad hung drywall in our house as we totally renovated it over 10 years. My brother replaced my mother's roof at least twice. Landscaping- see lawn mowing. Framig- my dad and cousin built our two car garage. Mom was home watching me, my sister, and then my brother. Not an illegal in sight.

I saw him in a McDonald's over 30 tears ago. Lived in Bristol,CT about a quarter mile from ESPN. Could actually see it if I walked out to the street. I think he was interviewing for a job there and I wet into the Mc Donald's across the street. He then walked in.
