Random thoughts III

Yay, I get to keep my tonsils. Now another appointment this afternoon to see if I have to have surgery on my knee.

I tore up my knee (for the second time) my senior year in high school. Doctor told me I'd have to have it replaced by 40. 32 now and, while I still have my pains, nothing constant or overwhelming to make me thing I need it replaced. A lot can happen in 8 years though.
 
This mean you aren't willing to lead an alumni bike ride I am thinking about?

Not this weekend. :wink:

At this point I'm hoping I can have my little ACL issue taken care of quickly enough that I can be in respectable shape for RAGBRAI. I have not been on my bike at all.

Hopefully today he says it is indeed only partial and just needs a little more R&R to recover. They still aren't convinced it isn't totaled. My exceptional musculature (har-har-har) might be somewhat keeping things together without an ACL. That seems extreme considering how little pain I have and how I am able to bring the swelling right back down when it comes on, but I certainly feel things moving around when I move, even with the joint immobilized.
 
It's weird to see the sand volleyball talk sprinkled amid Velo talking about his knee since that is probably the number one reason my knee (and every other joint) hurts. That said, I miss playing vball for hours every day.

I died a little when they got rid of the sand courts north of Beyer. I spent more time there than in my room a couple of summers.
 
I'm very disappointed in most of the responses in the man advice thread. It seems a lot of CFers need to follow up on the Bro Code.

I started replying a few times and just stopped when I remembered the age of a lot of the people on here.

One of my first dorm-mates in college ended up sleeping with a girl I briefly dated. I later found out that he was just one in a parade of her conquests on our floor. I never felt happier to have not slept with a hot girl in my life.
 
I think those who don't follow are those with few options, so any target is gonna get a shot.

:wink:

This actually makes a lot of sense.

The one that drove me nuts is the one that said that it's pretty much inevitable from time to time.

No. There are billions of women out there. You don't need to go sleeping with the small handful I have had some kind of a physical relationship with. The pool is more than big enough unless you live in a confine.
 
I have to share a humorous text exchange that Lew just showed me between him & one of our sons:

L: Yup Fingers crossed that she
L: goes home today
L: She died go home today
L: Does* damn auto correct
L: I need to read before sending.

YA THINK???

Color me surprised that PL knows what a text message is.

cripes, way to terrify the kid!
 
Inner Sloth is saying, it's windy out, it's going to rain, your hip flexor is ****ed up so don't ride da bike.

Going to give it a go and see if the all of the icing of the hipster this week has helped. Good thing I don't have a window stalker like CG or they would be all "Waz he doin' with that frozen bag of peas?".

Edit: Never mind. Sloth for the win. I rolled the bike out and the rain started.
