    Same thing I do. I have other sets, but why work harder if you don't have to? The hospital discharged me about 1130 this morning. Doing OK, but still going to be sore on the lower right quadrant for another week to two. Still have an abdominal drain that will be pulled on my surgical follow-up...

    How steep is too steep?

    The RhB line on my layout is around 6.5% at the steepest. That is a little under the max prototype grade for the Arosa Bahn which is my small line.

    They don't really want your phone to secure against their intrusions.

    Yes, the site has slowed since this morning. Had my first solid food in exactly 48 hours since the last time. Hospital food has improved over the last 16 years.

    Piko announced this model several years ago. I'm not even certain if it's still available.

    Good morning. I'm not usually up this early but hospital routine has mine all messed up. Although it didn't burst, enough material was leaked to cause localized infection. Infection though was minor and ABs have taken care of it. I still haven't peed yet even though my bladder has 240ccs of...

    Surgery went well, but they are keeping me overnight. I could use the rest.

    Pumped me with antibiotic IV for two hours. Surgery scheduled for 1900. I should be home in time for the 10 o'clock news. They are doing the laporoscopic surgery. After they make a 1/2" incision they pump you full of CO2 to expand your belly so the Doc can see what he's doing.

    71°F/70°F this morning. Cloudy, so that helps with the heat, but don't know if it will last. I think I'm going over to the ER in a bit to have them diagnose this apendix of mine. It flared up again yesterday. I was so tired last night I was in bed at 2020. I had a low grade fever and chills (in...

    I had a tough time with the transition of his character from MASH to Trapper John MD. Two opposites if there ever was. And what about that brown hair Trapper had on MASH? It suddenly turned black when he was home from Korea? Lots of continuity problems with that show.

    That man could write some profound lyrics. Not meaning that one in particular, but as a whole, the guy was a genius for that style of music.

    They didn't have colored guns when I bought one for my wife for times when I wasn't home. She chose the HK USP9.

    69°F/69°F this morning, same as yesterday morning. Today will be warmer at 89°F with higher dewpoint than now. I should be closing up the house by noon at the latest for a blast od A/C. More misery in store for the coming week with highs in the upper 90°s. Nothing else happening here today...
