  1. Blood clots were the major problem. I am foggy on the series of events, but mom red-lined during two different surgeries. Before the third (maybe fourth) the surgeon approached me and Step Dad and said essentially "lose her leg, or lose her life". Ironically, the new knee went in the trash with the rest of her leg. This was three years ago. She was two months from retiring and otherwise the strongest, hardest working woman any of us ever met. Now she has more or less given up on using her prosthetic and spends all of her time on the couch in depression. Addiction to Oxy has not helped. Even more ironic: Mom worked for the largest, most prestigious orthopedic clinic in our region. And the lead Dr. Did the surgery. Even more ironic than that: The chronic pain she had in her knee may not have been the joint, but the clots instead. They knew the scans/whatever did not justify a knee replacement. They ran every other kind of test they could think of, but never detected the blood clots that were a major problem, if not THE major problem. Many, many folks recommended a lawsuit, but Mom does not want to sue. Sorry if I used "ironic" incorrectly. Tragic is more like it.
  2. My mother went in for a knee replacement a couple of years ago, and ffive weeks later she left the hospital missing her whole damned leg from the thigh down.
  3. If loving the Buffalo Bill's is wrong, I don't want to be right!
  4. PB&J on toast. PM me for the recipe.
  5. I have skinny dipped with skanks. I was the shark.
  6. 5K would have my old boat fully operational, new trolling motor and sonar/GPS, a cooler full of Budweiser and snacks, fully stocked tackle box and a truck full of gas. And a new Buffalo Bill's hat.
  7. You are correct, but that doesn't make Kyle wrong.
  8. Just watched your link. Dig it. Is Lil Gordita the first Mexican heavyweight champ ever? I loved it! Phug, if it didn't hurt so bad getting punched in my big nose......LOL! I just looked it up. Yes, Ruiz is the first M Mexican heavy weight champion, ever! Nice!
  9. I know plenty of folks who hated Kelley's guts early on (most of my family in Buffalo). they may have even hated him more because...my father loved Jim. (My Okie dad knocked up their beautiful 15 year old daughter, and they never forgave him).
  10. Ha! I was inspecting my tomatoes plants just a little while ago and they have a bunch o little white aphids. I looked closer and saw a bug exactly like that photo. I almost flicked it away but then i thought maybe it would feed on the aphids so I left it alone. After seeing your post just now I ran out and looked again and surecenough that little booger was still there, and this time munching away on an aphid! Cool!
  11. So, tip for those tops? And...I cannot remember the last time I heard "1/4". Its by the gram now around here. Actually, it's $50 or $100, etc, no weight specified, unless I suppose, you order quantity. LOL. I haven't even smoked in years though, so what do I know. I sure as heck never tipped the delivery guy when I did.
  12. I am sorry you are sorry. (I was actually BSing though, surprise!) But seriously, good returnong customers are typically treated well, no?
  13. My "dispensary" has always delivered. I am such a good customer, they tip ME!
  14. Unrelated to tipping, sorry, but I had a very similar experience. I was at a four way stop, backed up ten deep in all directions...and got a ticket for rolling through. FU! I stopped a dozen times!!! I fought it, like you, the cop didn't show up on the first court date, etc, etc. I won my case but still had to pay a $25.00 court fee!!!!
  15. Not only is the train horn annoying AF, it does not even make sense. They play it on third down when the OTHER TEAM HAS THE BALL implying that it is hard to stop a train. WTF?
  16. I have not made it al the way through this thread yet, but I must first say that it is the best, most intelligently argued (for and against OP) I have read here in a long long time. Second: heck yeah Shaw66, I am always optomistic! And you are inspirational! Third: personal note: I freaking love my job and the company I work for. Since I started there in 2001, with 58 employees, one aircraft and one big contract, we have now 250+ employees, x aircraft, and x BIG contracts, and are now considered a model contractor for all of our customers. That was because of "continual improvement" inspired by everyone from the top leadership down to rookies (at the time) like me. We still have excellent leadership and dedicated folks like myself who have been willing to mentor the next generation. That is the process. If you don't get it, you don't last at my place of employment. Can you come speak for us sometime, LOL!
  17. Very nice!
  18. Nice! I don't want to insult this thread so ima post my Rocklahoma night 1 photos later. God bless who died for our country!
  19. I'm cool with that. Yall can crash at my house!
  20. Nick Foles did not lead his team to the playoffs......
  21. That is a friggin funny reference! And perfectly applied!
  22. Dont care. I like Hershey bars in any shape. Is it the best chocolate? Maybe not, but my favorite beer is Budweiser, so screw all yall haters!
  23. Gravity Bong! Holy crap, I had forgotten all about those lung busters!!!
  24. Yeah, I dont sorry for anyone who made more money first year outta college than I've made in my 48 year life, but I still wish EJ the best
