Where in the World Isn't Bob Saget?

Less than two weeks until total hip replacement, and this girl STILL won’t pay $3 for parking.

Nope, I’ll limp two blocks in the pouring rain, thanks. My tax dollars paid for that parking lot. I’m not paying twice!

is it both sides or just one side?

is it both sides or just one side?

I read my chart last week at the pre-op.
It says bilateral, which means both; but this is very common when arthritis is so bad in the first hip.

Right hip is bone on bone, and is concern #1. Right knee is concern #2, and one of the doctors unofficially told me that it will have to be next. Left hip has borne the brunt of a lopsided gait and 90% of the weight bearing for 13 months now, and it is now protesting, but is still the least compromised joint.

Let’s just get through the first one. I’m not even willing to talk to the surgeon about anything else until my 2-month post-op. If even then.

Happy Chinese New Year 2020 everyone!



Year of the rat.

(P.S.: I chose an image that only typed in the word, rat, but didn't show one!)

Although the above is quite a lot for you to process, I'm sure you're also relieved to realize that the upcoming procedures may make daily, physical movement much more comfortable for you. (Once all the healing time has passed.) Please continue to keep us updated, as we're all pulling for you here.

@PUSH , I can see a number of new Sharnado movies coming out in the future. Just think of what they could do with a storyline that includes "walking" sharks?!!

I wonder if Disney will buy the rights to the franchise so they can do a Sharknado Encounter (to be replaced later by a Sharknado’s Great Escape)....

This ad has popped up on my FB a few times, and every time I whiz by it I think - wait, where is this Disney castle?!?

Don't Know, but I'll bet you have to go out of town to see it.

Kobe Bryant has died in a helicopter crash just outside of Los Angeles.

 

[PUSH]

Unconfirmed reports are saying his four daughters were in the helicopter, too.

EDIT - Another post says he is survived by his wife and four daughters.

 

[PUSH]

TMZ confimed his 13 year old daughter Gigi was also on board.

I hate this early reporting stuff. It is wrong half the time.

I don’t like the part they got right either.

I have a passport. Most Canadians do.

Oldest daughter Gigi apparently was with him.
Rick Fox was not.

So sad.

You kinda have to if you want to see anything besides snow and trees. I've got one as well, it's my second one. I used the first one once (mid 60's) and I just used the second one once too. I might use it again, it depends if my ship comes in. The last one almost made it to the dock before it sank. We actually have to have a passport to visit Canada. Well, not so much visit as to get back to the states.

I’m on my fifth (maybe sixth). Last time out, I got the 10-year one. It gets used often.

Sadly, it does not have “21 Stamps”.

I stand corrected, I have had three. All of mine were 10 year. I got one in 1966, 2007 and 2017. I had quite a few stamps in the first one, because it was before the European Union so every country required a stamp. This second one only had one. In route, after Toronto was Iceland. It was stamped there and didn't require another one the entire trip. It only would have been 4 anyway. Iceland, France, Italy and Spain. The last one has only seen the inside of my file. In 1969 I went all the way to Vietnam and back, including a week in Japan and didn't even bring one with me. Ah, the perks for war.

Since I acquired the last one I only went to Vermont, So. Carolina and Florida. Didn't really require one for those. I did take it out of the file to get my drivers license "enhanced". Or in other words... big brothered!
