  1. My apologies if you've covered this already, but... What's your age difference in your marriage? Can you speak more about the odd ways it affects your daily life (if you wish)?
  2. I call that "Tuesday afternoon".
  3. No one. No one pays. Even if they said they would. People suck.

    Get with your Cardiologist. My Dad has sat in limbo for years, waiting with "sooner or later, you'll need a new valve, but your ultrasound says it isn't quite there yet", so he got it checked twice a year while he lived his life symptom-free. Even with his recent TAVR, his "numbers" were still so close to the borderline, but, because of his increasing symptoms, his cardiologist submitted a peer-to-peer review and analysis and submitted it to Medicare. It took weeks, but finally got approved. In your situation, I'm betting it's a clerical error...a checked box that didn't compute. Your cardiologist should be able to resubmit with your recent test results, findings. Fortunately, you have time to sort it out. Good luck. Hope that helps! By the way...didja poop yet? Did I miss it?
  5. Dunno about the grinder, but I see that Fellow kettle there. Those things are pretty cool.
  6. Tell me you're a crossdresser without telling me you're a crossdresser. Not that there's anything wrong with that...
  7. You really are living the dream...

    Lotsa shoulder talk going on here. Will pass on my limited wisdom. Be careful when you pick an Ortho. Those guys do something like 7 knees for every hip, and then maybe 5 hips for every shoulder, or something similar. And a lot of those guys make their nut with knees and hips and don't even wanna deal with shoulders because they are so much more complicated. So...just be mindful of finding an actual "shoulder guy" when the time comes (someone who actually gives a shit and specializes in it), and not just the first Ortho guy you encounter. The guy that did your knee 2 years ago may not be who you want touching you again...unless you just like that kind of action, ya filthy animal. That is all. Carry on.

    Don't ask me why...but the prune juice needs to be warm. And...for whatever reason...it works! Especially when you're washing down a few laxatives with it. Hope you get some relief soon!
  10. "Downtown is not safe for anybody." 30 seconds later, "It's ok to be here, regardless of what happened." How hammered is she? And where are her "friends"?
  11. Becker is my go-to. Love that Viognier. Do you know of any others that are worth a damn?

    My 84 year-old Dad just had one last week, and he is feeling great! After the first 48-72 hours of just being down, no real restrictions other than just taking it easy for two weeks (no strenuous activity, any kind of lifting, etc). We have a follow-up with the Interventional guy on the 30th. Should be life-as-normal after that.
  13. Damn, man...how old is your GF? Is she your geriatric sugar momma?
  14. My 84 year old Dad just had his TAVR done Tuesday morn by Rajesh Ramineni at Memorial Hermann in The Woodlands. Ramineni has been a great doc, the cath lab at MH is awesome, and the overall facility is fantastic. Easy-peasy... Now he has a nice, long healthy life of dementia ahead of him. Fucking modern healthcare.....
  15. WhatTheBuck probably has a spreadsheet for you.
  16. Jacksonville, not to far from main street. Cheers to you from Lufkin, my Surly brother!
  17. Dammit...just bought one this morn. Will keep expectations low, I guess.
  18. So...Bullard? Jacksonville? I bet your property dollar went far, huh?
  19. Yeah, but...you ain't shoveling!
  20. Michelin tires are spendy, but have a great track record in this house, regardless of vehicle type.
  21. They're not black, and that's all that matters.
  22. Goddam...now THAT's how a username checks out..!
  23. Now, I’m thinking you have a problem with “black” beans. The truth reveals itself.
  24. And you would probably be right. Doesn’t mean it can’t be done or isn’t being done. Do you not Cuban, bro?
