    They can be persistent fuckers. Good thing they are harmless. ETA: Nice to see your Pops isn't a hoe to the head kinda guy. Good for him.

    I had a Rat Snake that kept coming back to my deck. I documented it with pictures on this thread a long time ago. Turns out there was a hole in the soffit that a sparrow had decided to nest in. I got rid of the nest and patched the hole, took the snake far away and the problem went away. I'd guess there is an attractive nuisance, somewhere near the garage, at play.

    This. No Craig Ferguson or Shirley Manson is suspect too.

    Remember that time we thought we had the world on a string? You might feel that again some day.

    First time I saw her was at the Homecoming concert at Wichita State in the early 70s. Black Oak Arkansas opened for them. She danced all over the stage sans panties and I was smitten. RIP Tina.

    Nah, that's just the goofy way I look. Every time I look in a mirror I see my Grandpa Dyck looking back at me. I didn't get to choose this look.

    Thank you. Just typing the lyrics made me a blubbering mess for a moment. Had to shut my office door.

    Check out my blue suede shoes. Friday at a friend's wedding in JAX. It's been a rough ride at times but I can't think of anybody I would rather have had at my side. Or anybody else that would have put up with me like she continues to do. Jason Isbell says it best in "Vampires" "Maybe time running out is a gift I'll work hard 'til the end of my shift And give you every second I can find And hope it isn't me who's left behind"

    This is what makes Surly. I too have had the talk with Bear , and you, Brat, Hulla, Bruin, Cactus, Wild Turkey, Imma and countless others. Hell of a resource for such a group of assholes. I've read all of the links posted about MAC and it really saddens me that I I never had the luck to have a "talk" with him. I'm jealous of all of you who knew him. RIP, MAC.

    A shortish track with a couple hundred*cars on it should be messy. There was some amazing driving through traffic all day long, especially in the last 30 minutes. Being a Penske fanboy, I was hoping that they could catch the Caddy but there was too much traffic to shuffle through in the last few laps. *hyperbole

    I'll be driving through Marathon this coming Tuesday evening. I'll buy your supper and drinks if you will stand by the road with a piece of cardboard that you have scrawled with "Muledick!".

    Kenny, that first paragraph hit me like a ton of bricks. We are prepping for our 50th Anniversary celebration in a couple of weeks so we have been doing lots of reflecting and reminiscing lately. Obviously there was a course correction somewhere along the way but there were several uncomfortable conversations with my kids and my wife about the first quarter of our marriage. I was a selfish asshole, no other way to say it. Thanks for the post. ETA: I'm still an asshole.

    I've tried to add something to the conversation several times and deleted it. I don't know what to say. My heart goes out to those of you that were lucky enough to know MAC. He will finally find some peace. He will be missed.

    Going into my 4th year with the Ryobi 40v. Highly recommend.

    Anybody need a hand with a fucking fence?

    This is bullshit! 5116 Sparky Dick didn't have any hits Sparky's running mate was Buckshot. Might shoulda used that.

    Getting old sucks

    Shoxthemonkey replied to Hate's topic in Lulz

    Yep. I asked for it. I’ve already done the catheter and IV so I know what I’m in for if it comes to that. The biopsy is the unknown portion. Thanks.

    @wild_turkey Just got back from the Doctor. Will be starting a well monitored Prednisone treatment this evening. I'm also being referred to a rheumatologist for further study. There was some misunderstanding between the nurse and I but the Doctor laid out a steroid plan as soon as we got together. Thanks for responding. I really wasn't clear at all what I was asking advice about. Typical of me typing and thinking concurrently.
  22. Shoxthemonkey
    No, she didn't offer any other treatment but I was only talking to her nurse. The nurse made it sound like they were looking for some other malady. Before the Doc had the results from the blood work we discussed prednisone and the side effects. Several years back I had carpal tunnel surgery on both wrists. Prior to each surgery, the surgeon prescribed prednisone for a short time. We discussed the diabetes ramifications at that time and he didn't think it was enough to not do it. I have another meeting with the Doc this afternoon. I'll see what she thinks. This was a miserable weekend.

    I can't get on your VH bus but everything else you said is spot on.
  24. Shoxthemonkey
    Can’t believe anybody else is actually watching this shit. Why are you doing this to yourself?

    Bump to bring my posts in another forum to a more appropriate audience. Any advice?
