Walter,

 

I am sure he was poking at me if not both of us. I am laid up in the bed waiting for L5 disc surgery on Monday.

 

The rest of the season is probably a washout for me.

I "should" know more about what's going on Tue or Wed .. after meetings with the Oncologists

Thanks! Good luck with your situation. Puts mine in perspective for certain.

 

A bad back that I have been living with for 27 years has steadily gotten worse over the last two years. Since the Championships at VIR Labor Day Weekend, I can only describe it as debilitating. I haven't walked on my own since last week.

Good ones, Walter.

 

Can tell who is bedridden

not bedridden (at least not yet) … but am retired

 

the cancer HAS cut back on some of my activities, plus the disappearing stamina (due to being unable to eat … Thrush infection)

 

so I've had a little more time to peruse the interwebs

 

if the pain will let up there are still things to do to the car, and hopefully be able to make RA in Dec

 

wrong bedridden - you are too tough to be bedridden

you say this why ? … because I insist on driving a CRX in a Miata class ?

Two elderly women were out driving in a large car, neither one could hardly see over the dashboard. As they were cruising along, they came to an intersection. The stoplight was red but they went on through. The woman in the passenger seat thought to herself, "I must be losing it. I could have sworn we just went through a red light!" After a few more minutes they came to another intersection, the light was red, and again they went right through. This time, the passenger was almost sure that the light had been red, but was also concerned that she might be seeing things. She was getting nervous and decided to pay very close attention. At the next intersection, sure enough, the light was definitely red and they went right through it. She turned to the other woman and said, "Mildred! Did you know we just ran through three red lights in a row? You could have killed us!" Mildred turned to her and said, "Oh My Gosh!! Am I driving!!?"

The boss wondered why one of his most valued employees was absent but had not phoned in sick.

 

So he dialed the employee's home phone number and was greeted with a child's whisper. 'Hello ?'

 

'Is your daddy home?' '

 

Small voice whispered, ' Yes, he's out in the garden ,

 

’May I talk with him?'

The child whispered,

 

' No .'

 

So the boss asked, 'Well, is your Mommy there?'

 

‘Yes she's out in the garden too’

 

‘The boss asked; 'May I talk with her?'.

Again the ‘No’ .

 

'Hoping there was somebody with whom he could leave a message, the boss asked, 'Is anybody else there?'

 

'Yes' whispered the child, 'A Policeman'.

 

Wondering what a Police Officer would be doing at his employee's home, the boss asked, 'May I speak with the Policeman?'

 

' No, He's busy , ' whispered the child.

 

'Busy doing what?'

 

'Talking to Daddy and Mommy and the Police dog men. '

 

Growing more worried as he heard a loud noise in the background, the boss asked, 'What is that noise?'

 

' It's a helicopter ' answered the whispering voice.

 

'What is going on there?' demanded the boss, now truly apprehensive.

 

'The search team just landed a helicopter '

 

'A search team?' said the boss. 'What are they searching for?'

 

Still whispering, the young voice replied with a muffled giggle.... 'ME'
