I Bid You All Adieu!

Adon't tug on Superman's cape
Adon't spit into the wind
Adon't pull the mask off that old Lone Ranger
And Adon't mess around with Jim.

Goodluck Rick I will pray for you also.

[Rick]

All of my prayers are answered but it's usually, "Seriously? you interrupted me for that?"

I'll leave the religion part out of it, and just say that I'm glad to see a pro athlete being a positive role model. (I know that there are good people in pro sports, but they never seem to get any attention.)

[BENESSE]

Amen to that.

Tim Tebow is a local kid from here (Jacksonville). The rest of the country is just now finding out about him. He really hasn't changed since playing football here in high school. (He was home schooled but played h.s. sports). Jaguar fans (this was a Florida Gator town before it was an NFL town) are still po'd that he wasn't picked up by the Jags.

Short set back. I've developed an infection in the shoulder and the stuff they have me on let's me fade in and out. I was posting earlier and
"woke up" to a zillion i's on the page. Wonked out in the middle of typing. Kinda funny and I had to chuckle.

I have daily appointments the next few days so the surgeon can keep an eye on it. Hopefully the antibiotics and stuff will do their thing and we'll be back on schedule. Great guns, though, until this.

If I toss out something stupid just cut me some slack 'till I get back to it. Driving and typing on drugs is hard, ya know.

[TresMon]

got ya covered!

[BENESSE]

Sorry about the bump in the road to recovery, Rick. Hope it clears up fast.
Now if we cut you some slack, you might get used to it, and then where will we be?
Keeping you on your toes will do wonders for your shoulder. And that's my professional opinion.

[crashdive123]

Sorry to hear about the temporary setback. If'n you need me to post the hong picture for you just let me know.

[BENESSE]

Et tu, Brute?

Just trying to help a friend that is a little under the weather...........not to be confused with helping a friend that has a little underwear.

[Rick]

It has been called many things but little is not one of them. I donate my used pairs to the military so they can launch Predator drones.

[Rick]

For those that might have offered up a prayer or two my thanks. The suture line opened this morning and while that my not sound like a good thing it relieved the pressure on the shoulder and I feel Soooo much better. Yesterday was a genuinely bad day. I meet with the surgeon this morning so now we can chart a course to remove the infection and get rolling again. Thanks!

[BENESSE]

12 yrs. ago I had to spend a week in a hospital hooked to and IV antibiotic drip. (a course w/orals wasn't doing the job completely) Infections can be a nasty thing if not taken care of, but easily treated when caught early.
Wish you all the best, Rick. You'll be fine in no time.

[Rick]

Just got home from the dr.'s. I'm beginning to have my doubts about this Puruvian Witch Dr. I swear he said something about a power washer....

I actually go back into surgery tomorrow afternoon. They are going to open the shoulder and clean it out. For those keeping score.....Rick....326.....Ninja Bacteria.....1.

Prayer coverage from the Mtn's of E. TN! ('round here God is a local call)
Mind over matter- you don't mind 'hit don't matter

[BENESSE]

Maybe they should try maggots.
Swear to God, the med community has very recently revived this option (old wives, well proven remedy) as a legitimate way to go. Made the network news in last few weeks.

Good luck tomorrow!!!

[Rick]

Give that one the old college try and let me know how it works. For now, I'm going with the guy in the colorful hat and a Llama.
