  1. there are lots of crusty cancer survivors, who even with 2007 technology kicked cancers ass all over their body, even though cancer wasn’t willing to go easily. Everyone needs to ignore published statistics, as they are usually wrong and outdated and based upon studies from years ago, using old and lesser effective methods. Everyone should look at vanilla and say if vanilla can go through all that shit in 2007 and come out on top, there is no reason why that cannot be me. First, you need to decide that you are gonna be the one on the good side of the statistics. Because you are.
  2. Shark Tanks dreams….
  3. 10k shares of UEC. I bought it as a long-term uranium play expecting a more robust nuclear energy future. Probably because I worked in the nuclear power industry when I moved to Louisiana (before my completely accidental switch into law). if I lose everything on this one that’s fine, but I’m not going to sell this unless I need money to move to a foreign country when I need hospice. By then I think the shares will have increased to the point I can create a sex hospice chain catering to westerners that will keep my heirs in moolah forever.
  4. My bad dbeasy. it seems I’m a joker and a smoker and a midnight Toker. Even before midnight.
  5. Yikes, brother. That was almost me. I tweaked something in my stomach when I was twisting and lifting a gas generator. - like an idiot. So I had occasional twins of pain after that, but I associated it with the muscle strain from my bad lift positioning. My tumor was a 16th of an inch from breaking through the large intestine wall, so I assume if it had I would pretty much be exactly in your condition. You are beating the shit out of cancer, and you’re going to continue beating it until it rolls over on its scummy back in croaks “NED”, right before giving up the ghost and going to diseased body part hell. We’ll look on with adult beverages in our hands and laugh….
  6. Sawbones - what is the ICD-10 Code for cornea injury from mushroom dick poked in eye?”
  7. I had a massive tumor in my colon that the doctors could not believe I was unaware of. They wondered how I was even able to make a bowel movement. My surgeon said he almost “spanked its butt and gave it a name” when he took it out. And my CEA was only 4.0 when that happened. I understand that there is a ton of research on establishing better bio markers for all kinds of cancer going on right now. I could envision 20 years from now we all do blood draws every six months and they will know what the hell is going on inside us with a great deal of precision. Or they will be applying leeches and bleeding us to let out the bad blood humors
  8. ??? Not sure I follow Sarek. Some of my fraternity brothers knew some of the Chi Os we were about to have a social with from high school and such, and so we decided to go up the day before with a keg and have a pre-social party at the apartment where one of the Chi Os lived. Bundy attacked those girls at the Chi O house. None of us Florida dudes ever made it to the sorority house, given what happened, obviously. The terror it caused among people in Florida and college women after the FSU attack can’t be understated. All the women wandered around in groups, mostly, and many wanted some dude to escort them under the theory we would magically prevent an attack by Bundy, I guess. Not bad logic, as Bundy was known for attacking single women he conned into his car - the one with the door that would not work from the inside. Once he escaped from jail in Colorado, if I remember, right, he started taking more chances by attacking multiple people.
  9. I don’t know exactly what it was, but the test results said it was lower than 1.0. Three years ago it was 15.0. It turns out that respiratory issues like inflammation or mucus plugs, blocking airways can increase your CEA. Which is why people should treat a CEA number with a grain of salt if not accompanied by other evidence of disease. Which is also why a CEA test is not useful as a stand-alone diagnostic, but one of a number of things that could indicate cancer (PET scans/MRI and actual biopsies being more of a certainty.)
  10. Ned, you magnificent bastard, I love you! Just had my annual physical and my PSA was low (2.0) and my CEA (colon cancer marker) was lower than one percent, which is perfect. My blood work ups were fine, cholesterol was 170, BP was 120/65, and I weighed 30 pounds less than my last physical. My doctor was a very, very happy man. Keep fighting my fellow assholes. Kick the can that is your body down the road - and we will find something eventually that will cure us all.
  11. Fortunately, his son will be monitoring his activities to make sure he doesn’t look like he’s enjoying it.
  12. Beard Guy on the right - “ I bet I’m probably on that f’n list…” Young guy to his right - “ I wish I was older and had a chance to fly on that sweet love plane. Praise Jesus!”
  13. A maple leaf on the park sign? Was this in Canada? If the old man was Canadian, I assume he told the teens, “Sorry for the bruise, eh? Try to put some ice on it and have a nice day…. Somewhere other than the park.”
  14. My firm ordered a bunch of these and keep them available at the front desk for our Hispanic clients and friends of Hispanic clients.
  15. “Maybe it was just her time, and Satan was calling her home…”
  16. Because when you look in the various statutes and civil codes and codes of civil procedure in any state, none of them say “please disregard this mandate if the families want to do something different”. The purpose of a criminal justice system is to use scarce resources to obtain the best, quickest, most cost effective means to find and punish criminals. That’s it. And then there’s the fact that families reacting in a situation like this are at their most emotional and least rational and intelligent state. It’s generally best not to hand over the driving wheel to the most emotional and unintelligent person in the car.
  17. During my time as an ATO at Florida, we went up to Tallahassee for a social with the Chi Omega sorority. The afternoon and evening before the social and the Bundy attack some of them, my fraternity brother and I with some the Chi Os at an apartment complex pool area. Needless to say, the social did not happen the following day. I was working at Florida’s Library West at the time, and for a while I had many sorority girls ask me to walk them home when the library closed because everyone was terrified of Bundy. I enthusiastically embraced that role of ‘you are safe with me’ guy. I’m not sure how I can explain that but….
  18. “No, never convicted…” or “There’s at least Tree Fiddy of us!” instead of “we rise”, etc
  19. Dammit. Three years of law school and 35 years of practice wasted. My stupid law school never told me how to file a POWERHOUSE lawsuit.
  20. I got 96 right now and 58% humidity. this is not enjoyable.
  21. I bet the widow is being courted by a bunch of dentally challenged guys in Adidas sweatpants looking to get their hands on that sweet, sweet potato sack windfall.
  22. if you think the Lindberg baby kidnapping, Judge Crater’s and Jimmy Hoffa’s disappearances - and the Rockefeller kid vanishing in the jungles of New Guinea - are not related to President Obama stealing the Time Machine built to go back in time to catch the 2020 election steal mules red handed - then you are probably a part of the Deep State.
