Running Bear's February 2024 Coffee Shop

[Boris]

Called the Hospital this morning, that I'm going to on Monday 12th for an Aortic heart valve replacement op to get clear on what I'm expected to take regarding my medications prior to that, no changes needed and I asked about which type I would be getting as I'd been told if it was the metal stent type I would be on Warfarin for the rest of my life. I didn't like that idea. I was assured it would not be and the lady I spoke to looked it up but said it would either be a Cow's or a Pig's one. Once checking she said it will be a Pig's one and I would Oink when I woke up, to which I replied "So long as I don't

Ray: I had an Aortic heart Valve replacement a year ago. It is called TAVR, and the one I received was from Medtronic. I am not on Warfarin, only Lasix which is a water pill, that I have been on previous to the TAVR, and 81mg (baby) Aspirin, 1 tab /daily. The only restriction, I have with the TAVR, is I cannot have an MRI. They inserted the device through my leg, and I was out of the Hospital the next afternoon.

Good Luck with your procedure.

New car bug? Get it before it goes electric

Willie: They had a real nice Lyriq on the floor. RWD, My wife's favorite color...but...the extension cord wasn't long enough. I'll stick with the 6 cylinder, AWD.

Thanks @santafewillie is just looking for some depressed flat car load images. Those are perfect.

What are we looking at Jaz?
Asking for a friend. He's 1/87 scale.
Tires out easily when jumping from letter to letter, on the keyboard.

Crane usually lifting engines

Jaz. No wonder you were lost. I lost you when you said you have been loitering -.

I do not have any lasses on street corners.
closest I can think of

well I do but I have a wicked feeling it’s not what you were referring to
and hopefully anyone eating too close to this will end up with a a close up of the dogs teeth

surprisingly I have loads of blokes loitering

although I think this one has mastered different skills

 

[Jaz avalley]

come on now Sherrel! You know they don't do that, just ask one of them!

In the UK you can know get done for flashing your lights at oncoming traffic trying to warn them to slow down, you points on your licence also….

Working on finishing up a lumber load created using my new custom lumber load generator web pages. Add any logo and set any size. Print on card stock or paper. These are a card stock version. Wondering if it needs a glossing finish.

No gloss looks cool as cucumber

Afternoon All,

Woke up at 1 AM with a sore throat that also became congestion and the hot-cold-hot feeling. Picked the bug up from son and MOH has it already. After a cup of coffee this morning I laid back down to rest. I'm starting to get tired again. I rescheduled my dental appointment to the 29th. I puttered around the workbench doing this and that.

Thank you for the photo likes yesterday.

Joe- Thanks. After looking at the photo I did another wash.

Toot- Best wishes on the procedure.

Bill- Nice photo.

Mike- Good luck to your daughter.

Willie- Great photos.

Bigfoot- Nice job on the load.

Jaz- Nice layout shots.

I hope everyone has a good night.

I wondered what I would look like as a wizard.... the AI thinks I need a Willie beard

A wizard must have a beard!

I would have guessed Bohemian Rhapsody, but you could be right.

You could be right. After the Freddy Mercury movie Queen is extremely popular. Although I think they are an overrated band! Let the boos begin!

Me personally, I always thought Free Bird was better than Stairway to heaven.

Im sure very few would agree with me on that since it always seems to be #1.

Rather than like individual posts, I'm gonna just like them all. ! Jaz seems to have livened up the shop banter.
Question for the experienced travellers/holidayers - How do you decide which all inclusive resort to go to? ie about 20-30 of them in Cancun area. what are the narrow it down factors? I limited my search to adults only & still a ton of choices.
I like Stairway to Heaven. (& many hundreds more)

This one gets my vote!

And what's wrong with that???

 

[kbkchooch]

Good evening gang!

Just about ready to lock up the shop, thought I'd stop by for a cold Coke Zero.

Queen over-rated? Louis you're daffy! Stairway to Heaven used to make me turn the dial as soon as it started, simply because it has been played to death!! Only in recent years have I found a tolerance for it.

Willie: They had a real nice Lyriq on the floor. RWD, My wife's favorite color...but...the extension cord wasn't long enough. I'll stick with the 6 cylinder, AWD.

GM (or should I say the neutered gm) is backing away from EV's Too much money down the drain. Toyota, Ford and BMW too. Why? Everything is too expensive and the market won't accept it. GM is now partnering with Honda to try to catch up with Toyota on hydrogen power. Ford is looking for a dance partner and Stellantis is just sinking into oblivion.

This is the future IMHO, hotrods on hydrogen!

Stopping at the liquor store on the way home, might be back later!

Can’t go wrong with some Sabbath!

Not good. Rest, and get well. Watch the congestion...If it's like what I had, it lasts about a week, and takes over a second week to recover fully.

I received an offer for the application I submitted, for everything I asked for. I'm giving my notice Monday.
