Having lived in Texas, I have heard:
"Thoe it on the dest." <-- Translated to Yankee: "Throw it on the desk."
That. Is. So. Kewl. Yer MamaD is a treasure.

The medical system we knew back in the Olden Days, Pute... is gone.Wow Dog. I had no idea! Isn't getting old fun. Take care of yourself the best you can. I don't totally trust our medical system anymore. Sign of things to come
The best investment I ever made in my life was to pay for Scooter to go to college and then medical school. He has literally saved my life -- twice.
And he has opted out of the system (which is in the same shape as our now rogue gummint).
I fear for the next generation. They are in for some real shit. The vaxx has worked just fine:
Comparing US 2010 and 2023 annual rates, deaths are up 28% and births are down 15% – comparing averages of 2010-19 to 2020-23 averages, the death rate is up 22% and the birth rate is down 10% –
acquisition of time being spent with Women
Those are some " I can make cutlets in epic amounts out of those guys mofos'
I always tell the blood-drawer that I know the real reason for one of the blood tubes is for the doctor's roses out back. Great for them.Good morning Kids
cold and gusty!
getting my blood drawn and hope I dont cry
Side note: I have given 8 gallons** of blood. Cannot do it anymore per Scooter's orders.
**Took 50 years, but I got there.
I have fun with the Ladies who draw my blood.
In life I hurt myself more getting a romex connector out of my truck than a needle.
When I leave I hold the other arm and complain that one hurts.
Then I charm them out of a 24 hr specimen jug in high visibility orange.
I collect them like some people collect reading glasses..
As I recall our address was 708 Beach Trail. Beach Trail was a dirt road that ran parallel to Gulf Blvd. 1980 was when I lived there.
Sounds so nice had to say it thrice. Thank you.
@jokerman , I am not as dumb as I look so I asked her for a quick10 things list.
One of the moves I made to make an infant smile was to get down on one knee in front of the posing table. I would lean back and then rock forward towards the baby while saying, "Ahhhh- Boo!" That move killed on the baby circuit until the morning after a Beach House Halloween Party. I was very very headachey as a result of Mr. Daniels and his free flowing brown liquor. Baby was posed on the table and I tried all kinds of things to get a smile. No luck no smile. I took the AhBoo position and the first three rocking attempts got me dizzy and nauseous but no smiles. Stoic Baby finally broke up when I switched to the 'fake sneeze' "Ahhhh-Choo!" move.
Got the shots! Baby gave me a fist bump and a wink.
I drank some water.
Just in case you lose the ball cap.

Any technical stuff about past forums etc - best ask the Admin explosiv -
* Prawn - I upgraded you to senior member - that might help
Still can't see sigs and now all my posts need moderator approval before they go live.
And I've been on my best behaviour, too!
On a different note, I'll officially be OAP this year when I hit 55. Finally got back to Hong Kong last year after three years of Covid lock-outs, but you wouldn't like the place now. I was there during the riots in 2019 and there was a big disconnect between the young-uns and the older crowd. The young folk wanted their freedoms like they had under British rule, but the old folk knew trouble was brewing – and they were right.
I got gassed a couple of times in 2019 but last year the place was dead. You hardly see any foreigners there now, mostly just mainland Chinese who have taken over. We were there at the best time, before the handover.
