So far, so good.  Hope it stays that way.

Well,  I woke up from the procedure with
out feeling any pain.  Shook off the small amount of anesthetic in a minute or two.  Released to my wife's care in 1/2 hr.  Easy peasy.  I'm very relieved.  Time will tell if it was the right way go.

Looking forward to getting out there again.

hope all goes well with this adventure.   

Thank you Moe

Our discussion seems like two guys going to a baseball game and then after the game one of them starts claiming it was really a pool tournament because there were sticks and balls and the playing field was green and ... But even if it wasn't a pool tournament the side with the  highest score didn't win because ...  But even if the highest score did win it was all made up ... But even it wasn't made up it was still a pool tournament  ...

I understand the are citizens among us who do not believe in democracy and may even try  to wrangle the Constitution in ways to limit or even deny democratic participation by all citizens in our Republic. I'm not among that group.

I go to a baseball game, I go to see baseball.

I like to shoot pool too.

And I know the difference.

Anyway, it's good you're taking a break. Trust you'll have a good time.

  You are going to need more pockets.
