And the libtards demand we socialize medicine here in the US. Well, if workman's comp is any indication then we are doomed. Like my wrist, my knee hasn't healed correctly either.
Smokey 57° headed to 90. 117 active fires and over 1 million acres up in smoke.
Back to the eye doctor for a second attempt to get the right subscription.

Well, brought some Austrian sausages, and some Austrian beer for you to sample before I go to bed.
Both best served cold, and sliced for one of them.. if you don't already know, stay off the beer and try to figure the sausage first.

Anyways, there isn't much to say to Scotty.

Except that he is a person who I do respect tremendeously, and who I do wish a lot of luck.

His has always been a hard life. Born in the worst parts of town, having ill luck and bad friends growing up- he managed to become one of the worlds strongest men- and also managed to train the Canadian strong men- showing that he does not only have brawn, but also brain. (lots of both)

Then he "managed" to get (make) one hell of a daughter- as seen in her exploits in basketball- even more noticeable for the fact that her efforts in basketball start out by being genetically a square or low cylinder of shape.. Scotty

And I have a lot of confidence in him being able to overcome his problems. I think that if he needs help it will be in two different places- practical and moral.

Personally I can not offer meaningful help in the realm of practical- meaning I am no Dr., and I didn't even stay in a holiday inn for decades.

Morals- I keep my thumbs pressed, and there isn't much more that I can do.

I must admit that I am a whiner starting the threads about my mother and my brother... compared to Scotty who is really fighting.

So, I'll end with my wishing luck, power and health to Scotty, and a profound feeling of sadness that I can not offer more to a person that I consider valuable.

I remember when we met in Germany. A special moment for sure. The sharing about your family is good reading and helps
to reinforce the value of friends and family.

Maddi finished Day 2 of 3 at an intense basketball camp that she says is the best one she has attended to date.

Do you remember how some of the guys were having a smoke and a beer between events at the competition in Immenstadt? lolol. It was different but I was told it’s how they relax. The boys from Belarus said the German milk was like water and I thought it was thick! When they came to Canada and had skim milk we all laughed how we pay for white water.

Fun times and Good memories. One of my protege was/is an athlete with a great first name. Google Scott Cummine. He made it to the worlds!

120 fires and still cooking. At least the heat wave is letting up a little. Might even start seeing some rain starting tomorrow, maybe.

Gee, Thursday all ready. Another week about shot. So tired of not being able to do much - - boring. Put fresh coffee and ph00 on
and kept the goodies away from the dragon today, so on the counter for you - - don't drool on them please...……….

Rain rain and more rain. The tropical storm in the gulf is drenching us down here. Thankfully it is heading the other way, but we are
still getting heavy rains off and on as the cells pass thru. Thank goodness nothing like New O is getting - - wow. At least it is helping
my lawn come back to life after my sprinkler system messed up and I didn't notice it.

Grabbing ph00 and hit the exercise room...…………..

She’s 13, Canadian, likes her free swag and she knows nothing about politics or racial crap...yet.

She has several Shorts, head bands, shirts and head bands from many different brands.

Another week gone - - - amazing how fast. How do we slow it down??? Fresh ph00 and coffee on the counter but did not have time
to grab any goodies - - sorry.

Wow, look at that gal of Scotty's - - I couldn't lift one like that 1/2 the size. Remind me to be very careful the next time I see her. Like
stated, she may put me thru the hoop. OUCH.

Long day and too much to do - - gotta run - - have a great day. Want to hear of success for Scotty this week. It's time.

Bob……………..

Hey Bob,

Do me a favor. Keep your Florida weather down in Florida, and dont let it escape anymore. I have a 3 day outdoor job,this weekend, and they're calling for 98* f


If there is such a,thing as weather related depression, I have it now.

Added proper grounds to the service panel yesterday

Nothin funny going on here

OTOH, there's always something "funny" going on in Florida. This,is,what the,heat does to people.

Hey Buddy - - the secret is don't mess around with a Florida guy. ………...…………..

Morning all - - coffee and ph00 br00d and on counter. No goodies, sorry.
Off and running on a busy day at the Main St. building. Glad when that is done. Time and money consuming.
Have a great day. Bobby

I heard noise from my past and found you two a week behind in the other break room.
Glad I had my own transporter room to get here. Going back to the Future now
