It appears that ducks have moved on from passively spying on us to actively working on a “special weapons” program.
They’ve recruited Albert Duckstein to their cause.

Quite the coif on that duck.

Morning gang. About time we deployed those spy ducks to strategic locations. I recognized right away that coil as the latest in MIMO antenna development sot the ducks can transmit their observation in real time. In other news, I’ll head out for coffee here shortly. Nothing other than that to report for now, so you all have a great day. More later as it develops.

I was awake when this post hit, but I rolled over and tried to go back to sleep.
Tried.
I have a long drive ahead of me today.
Coffee! Stat!

*THE C&C ARMY POST*OPERATION MULTIPLIER: It’s Governor DeSantis again, because he just confirmed Dr. Joe Ladapo as surgeon general. More on that below. Dr. Ladapo is a member of America’s Frontline Doctors (https://americasfrontlinedoctors.org). Just think about what that means for a second. It took ENORMOUS political courage and capital for DeSantis to confirm this appointment, probably over the advice of party regulars. Let’s show the Governor that his courage is appreciated, and let’s show other Governors what happens when you make the big moves.
Now that we have a contact on the Governor’s fund-raising team, I got them to setup a special C&C multiplier page to make it easy. Check out the special URL. Unfortunately, they thought we wanted donations ending in ‘8’, so just ignore those and donate any amount ending in a ‘2’. Guys, I don’t need to tell you how important this is, the fact I could ask for this and get a quick response: we are talking and they are listening. Let’s keep talking! (Last time it took me two weeks to connect with someone to review the records and calculate how much C&C gave — about $60K total).
Not to mention, it’s absolutely CRITICAL — no matter where you live — that DeSantis is re-elected. It might be the single most important race going.Multiply governor DeSantis right now by donating any amount ending in a ‘2’. Do it RIGHT NOW: (https://secure.winred.com/rondesantis/thank-you-c-and-c). Don’t read any more, just take a second and do it now, then keep reading today’s post.
I PROMISE that you’ll feel GREAT after you do it. Let’s beat the previous Operation’s numbers, even if just by one dollar. Let’s do this! Let’s show them what C&C can do.

*COVID NEWS AND COMMENTARY*
In terrific news, Florida’s new surgeon general, Joe Ladapo, previously acting under a temporary appointment, was permanently confirmed yesterday. During the confirmation hearing, democrats asked Dr. Ladapo a variety of trick questions designed to score political points and trip him up. By and large Dr. Ladapo handled the questions gracefully and effectively.
The Orlando Sentinel reported that the hearing was “contentious,” referring in part to Senate Democratic Leader Lauren Book’s repeated questions for Ladapo to give a yes or no answer on whether or not vaccines are effective against Covid-19. The Sentinel reported that Ladapo declined to answer the question directly, explaining “‘Yes or no’ questions are not that easy to find in science.”
Haha!
The Sentinel also whined about Ladapo’s failure “to endorse masks.” Poor Sentinel. Apparently Ladapo said, triggering reporters everywhere, that masks hadn’t been shown to have any significant effect of the spread of Covid. The horror! The Sentinel indignantly countered that “most public health officials” say masks are an effective way to slow transmission.
Um. I guess the Sentinel’s reporters haven’t exactly been keeping up with current events. (https://tinyurl.com/3x2cw7k4). I get it. Things are moving fast. You have to pay attention.
Ultimately, in an embarrassing display of childish petulance, democrats WALKED OUT of Ladapo’s confirmation hearing and refused to participate in the vote. That’ll teach people to question masks! So anyway, Dr. Ladapo ultimately was confirmed unanimously, an impressive accomplishment in these fractious times. Congratulations, Doc!
As noted above, Harvard-trained Ladapo is a member of America’s Frontline Doctors, which focuses on early treatment of Covid, and which has filed a number of lawsuits challenging junk vaccine science and otherwise supporting civil rights. Dr. Ladapo signed the Great Barrington Declaration, which called for a focused protection approach instead of a mass vaccination policy.
Ladapo’s appointment is driving the pro-lockdowners even crazier than they already are, which is to say, they are giving bedbugs a run for their money. Hopefully now that he’s been confirmed, Ladapo can act with more freedom, politically speaking.
Ladapo’s appointment and confirmation was an extremely bold political move by Governor DeSantis, and is the reason we are multiplying him again today. If by some tragic accident, you have made it down here without having multiplied him, PLEASE go back and multiply him RIGHT NOW, in any amount ending in a ‘2’. Then come back and finish!****************************
The Hill published an article this weekend headlined, “Pfizer CEO says frequent boosters ‘not a good scenario,’ hopes for yearly vaccine.” Well. Pfizer’s CEO Albert Bourla didn’t admit to any, er, problems, of course not, safe and effective and all that, but instead focused on the logistical issues. When asked about people getting booster shots every four to five months, he explained, “This will not be a good scenario. Once a year — it is easier to convince people to do it. It is easier for people to remember. So from a public health perspective, it is an ideal situation.” Uh huh.
The article reported on an interesting Fauci comment also backing off of frequent boosters. The maniacal doctor is reported to have said, “We would hope — and this is something that we’re looking at very carefully — that that third shot with the mRNA [vaccine] not only boosts you way up but increases the durability so that you will not necessarily need it every six months or a year.”
Is “boosts you WAY UP” a technical term or something? WAY up? Way? So dumb. Anyway, the point is Fauci’s comment means they don’t know whether booster protection will last, be “durable.” They DON’T KNOW. How could they? There hasn’t been enough time.
Anyway, it’s good news that they are backing off the boosters, for whatever reason.

Alert Internet researchers noted that OpenTable’s recent “State of the Industry” report revealed that, but for a couple exceptions, most big cities’ restaurant reservations have plunged. Here’s a sample from the rankings, from best to worst:
Miami: +14%
Las Vegas: +1%
Houston: -13%
Denver: -26%
LA: -41%
Boston: -48%
Brooklyn: -55%
DC: -59%
Manhattan: -64%
San Francisco: -66%
Cambridge, MA: -75%And guess what feature the only two cities in the positive range have in common? That’s right, no mandates or passports. And how about the eight worst on that list? Yep. Mandates AND passports. So.
*************************
Last week, a federal judge in Texas entered an order blocking Biden’s injection mandate for federal employees. Judge Brown cited the Supreme Court’s recent decision blocking the OSHA Mandate, writing that the federal employee mandate was “a bridge too far.”
Many commenters predict the decision suggests the federal CONTRACTOR mandate is also due to be stayed. An article in Bloomberg Law last week discussing the ins-and-outs of the contractor mandate was headlined, “The Federal Contractor Vaccine Mandate Is Unlawful, Too.” I agree.
***************
⚖️ Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer, a Clinton appointee, unexpectedly announced this week that he will retire, soon, creating an opportunity for Joe Biden to appoint his successor. Interestingly, Justice Breyer has been a long-time critic of the “major questions doctrine,” which the Supreme Court just used to overturn the OSHA Mandate.
At the White House announcement, Breyer completely mangled and stumbled through the first lines of the Gettysburg Address but still sounded ten times more lucid than the man who will pick his successor. Breyer probably should have just looked over Lincoln’s famous speech before he took the podium; it can happen to any of us.
For his part, Joe Biden rambled like usual and while speaking, slowly took a mask out of his wallet or something and handed it to a masked aide standing several feet away. Biden walked to the aide to hand him the mask, since the aide clearly had no idea what was happening, and quickly stuffed the mask in his pocket. Why, Joe? Why take it out if you’re not going to use it? What on Earth was he thinking, if anything?
Anyway, Biden promised that he will nominate a black woman to replace Breyer. Because diversity is the most important thing that we need on the Supreme Court. Obviously.
Whoever it is, the appointment will not change the political character of the Supreme Court much.

It’s not over! According to Fox News, with the current funding for the federal government set to expire next month, a letter signed by “a growing number of Republicans” pledges to pull support from government budget legislation including language funding vaccine mandates. The effort is being led by Representative Chip Roy of Texas. “Will at least 10 of the 19 GOP senators who voted to punt last time now stand up for health care workers or not?” Roy asked. “We’re going to find out.” Yes, we will.In case you wanted to let any Senators know about your opinion, you can find their contact information here: (https://www.270towin.com/elected-officials/contact-us-senators).

On Monday, the day after the DC mandate rally this weekend, the one I spoke at, Senator Ron Johnson held a five-hour hearing on vaccine safety. Many of the doctors who spoke at the rally testified on Johnson’s committee. As it happens, while I was navigating through the DC airport Monday morning I nearly literally ran smack dab into attorney Tom Renz, and we had a nice chat by the concourse slidewalk. Tom previewed his intended testimony to me, and it was already a doozy.
Later that morning, Renz testified before Johnson’s committee that he has recently received shocking information from multiple whistleblowers within the Department of Defense. The DoD has apparently been tracking the military’s vaccine mandate and recording adverse event signals among our troops. The information came from the Defense Medical Surveillance System (DMSS), which tracks billing codes for medical diagnoses among service members. (By the way, this could easily be done through CMS as well for the population at large, if the government were so inclined.)
Among other things, according to Renz, the data from DMSS shows a dramatic increase in the first ten months of 2021 in certain diagnosis codes, over the prior 5-year average for the same diagnoses:— a 300% increase in miscarriages (4,182 vs 1,499)
— a 300% increase in cancer diagnoses (114,645 vs 38,700)
— a 269% increase in myocardial infarction
— a 291% increase in Bell’s palsy
— a 467% increase in pulmonary embolisms
— a 471% increase in female infertility
— a 1,000% increase in neurological diagnoses (863,000 (!) vs 82,000)Renz pointed out that the 2020 diagnosis codes for the same conditions do NOT show similar increases, which seems to rule out Covid-19 as a possible cause. Renz told a reporter for Blaze News that this was just “the tip of the iceberg,” as numerous other diagnosis categories have also increased exponentially.
Renz presented a sworn declaration from one of the military doctors who came forward, which states, “It is my professional opinion that the major increases of the above discussed instances of miscarriages, cancers, and disease were due to COVID-19 ‘vaccinations.’”
It’s great news that these brave doctors are coming forward to raise an alarm about these issues, and that it is getting into the permanent congressional record.

According to Wealth Professional, a Canadian finance magazine, lots of entrepreneurs are leaving Canada because of its lockdowns and mandates. According to the article, the CEO of an Ontario wealth management firm has now been living in Costa Rica for two months and “has no intention of returning until Ontario no longer requires vaccination passports.”The Ontario CEO also says he knows of 30 other business owners who have left the country and may eventually take their businesses with them. He said the 30 entrepreneurs — along with thousands of employees who generate millions of dollars a year in taxes — have left Canada for the southern U.S., Mexico, and Costa Rica in the past four months.
“Life is very different here than in Canada. There are no restrictions. There are no vax-passports. They closed the special ICUs in the hospitals a month ago because of a lack of cases,” CEO Arthur Salzer told reporters.
In Costa Rica, doctors typically prescribe ivermectin and Vitamin D for Covid infections.
If it represents a trend, and it seems likely that it does, this is great news for freedom-oriented countries and certain U.S. states, which are benefitting from the influx of capital and high-achieving individuals and businesses. Think about it — UNSUCCESSFUL businesses and those LACKING capital can’t afford to move. It is the most successful firms and individuals that are the most mobile. Brains, ingenuity, and creativity are draining out of the pro-lockdown areas like water running off a beagle puppy’s back.************************
The highly-respected journal Science published an article last week headlined, “In rare cases, coronavirus vaccines may cause Long Covid–like symptoms.” Uh oh. The subhead says, “Brain fog, headaches, blood pressure swings are being probed by NIH and other researchers.”
While the article carefully repeats the mantra that the syndrome appears to be ‘rare,’ and says over and over that Covid-19 risks are worse than risks from the injections, it is telling that Science felt secure enough to even mildly challenge the narrative that the injections are completely safe and effective.
The article describes Brianne Dressen’s story. She has never had Covid but took the AstraZenica vaccine in clinical trials. She says that by the evening after her injection, her vision blurred and sound became distorted—“I felt like I had two seashells on my ears,” she said. Her symptoms rapidly worsened and multiplied, ultimately including heart rate fluctuations, severe muscle weakness, and what she describes as debilitating internal electric shocks. Yikes.
For a period up through early 2021, Dressen had contact with NIH researchers who were studying the side effects. And when Science contacted Pfizer for a comment for the article, a Pfizer spokesperson wrote, “We can confirm it’s something we’re monitoring.” How about that?
Science acknowledged the 800-pound hypodermic in the room, noting that the scientific community is “uneasy” about studying vaccine side effects. You don’t say. “Everyone is tiptoeing around it,” said Resia Pretorius, a South African researcher. “I’ve talked to a lot of clinicians and researchers at various universities, and they don’t want to touch it.”Gosh, I wonder why?
Science also reported that Pretorius said she and her colleagues have seen up to 20 other patients with chronic problems following vaccination. She says these include Long Covid–like symptoms such as brain fog as well as other clotting concerns like deep vein thrombosis. Pretorius said she suspects any of the vaccines could sometimes trigger subtler clotting issues. She says she has preliminary evidence that vaccination can lead to microclots — although noting that in most cases they go unnoticed and quickly disappear — an effect she and a colleague saw in their own blood and that of eight other healthy volunteers, which they sampled after their vaccinations.
The journal also reported that dozens more patients reporting postvaccine complications found their way to Avindra Nath, clinical director at the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, and Farinaz Safavi, an NINDS neurologist. “I promise you we will report your issue and other cases we are reviewing now,” Safavi wrote to Danice Hertz in March 2021. Hertz is a retired gastroenterologist who lives in Southern California, and has developed debilitating side effects after one dose of the Pfizer vaccine.
The researchers were all careful to note that “correlation is not causation” but were confident that correlation exists.The best news is that journals like Science are now finding that they are able to publish articles like this at all. As researchers learn that they are not alone, and find out who else is working on similar research, the pace of information should pick up.

According to an article in Fox News, Florida is crushing it for tourism, setting new records, even for pre-pandemic periods. 2019 was already a record-setting year for visitors, with about 131 million coming to the state. For 2021, with data only available for the first three quarters, the numbers are even higher. The article quotes tourism officials from around the state using words like “remarkable.” So.*****************
Cases and hospitalizations in Florida continue to trend down. As of yesterday, cases in Florida were down 33% over the previous week. Hospital admissions were down 16%, and its hospital census was down 11%. ICU bed use was down 10% in the prior 5 days. Great news.
*******************
Finally, even though this is COFFEE & Covid, I would be remiss if I failed to mention a new study out of the UK finding that RED WINE may reduce chances of being infected by Covid-19 — making the popular beverage potentially more effective than injections against Omicron.
“Our study suggests that subjects who usually consumed red wine and white wine and champagne above guidelines, and sometimes consumed 1–2 glasses/week fortified within the guidelines appear to have chances to reduce the risk of COVID-19,” the researchers noted.
This is great news for C&C readers who don’t get around to reading the blog until AFTER work. Now you don’t have to feel left out! I hereby officially adopt red wine (white if you can’t stand it) as the official back-up beverage for Coffee & Covid. You’re welcome.

Perhaps nothing will come of it.
From what I’ve read, seeking is always a good thing.
Seeking within the Protestant faiths, Catholicism, and Orthodoxy is just fine. If he ends up at a UU church or denies Christ as an apostate, that is not good.
Ancient Faith Radio has both live streamed music and podcasts. A quick jump start that skims Orthodoxy is a podcast by Lynette Horner called Walking An Ancient Path specifically six podcasts. The first one is titled Liturgy Quick Start Guide #1: Introduction and Trail Map. There are five more in that series. This podcasts references a book that I have called The Heavenly Banquet: Understanding The Divine Liturgy by Father Emmanuel Hatzidakis.
Another book I have Introducing The Orthodox Church It’s Faith and Life by Anthony M. Coniaris takes a higher look at Orthodoxy and its beliefs. It covers Jesus, the Holy Trinity, Salvation, Early Fathers, the Church Year, Saints, The Theotokos (Mother of God aka Mary), Eschatology or Life After Death, Sacraments, Icons, and more.
Since your friend is already Scripture wise, he may be interested in Orthodox interpretation of Bible verses. That can be found in The Orthodox Study Bible. The Orthodox Bible is based on the Greek Old Testament of the Septuagint (LXX) or simply called the 70. Where English translations match up perfectly with the Masoretic (Hebrew) text the NKJV is utilized.
We used to have a priest at our parish, James Early, that wrote a short book about his conversion called From Baptist to Byzantium How a Baptist Missionary Travelled Halfway Around the World to Find the Ancient Orthodox Faith. He traveled to Bosnia to convert them to Baptist and he ended up converting to Orthodoxy himself.
I can’t sign off without offering YouTube options too. There is a channel called Patristic Nectar Films by Father Josiah Trenham. He also has a website http://www.patristicfaith.com
Another YouTube channel is Father Spyridon Bailey.
Then there are a couple of book recommendations from our Deacon. Our two families were catecumens together back in 2008/2009. He was actually once a Church of Christ pastor. He recommended the YouTube channel above. I didn’t know at what level of knowledge your friend is at when I texted the Deacon last night hence his reference to both groups or thick skin.
The last one is orthodox apologetics.
Books, Timothy Ware, The Orthodox Church for both groups.
If bible thumper has a thick skin, anything by Clark Carleton. If no thick skin, skip those.
Met. Hilarion Alfayev has some really good stuff. He has two different series of books. Both are by St Vlad Press. He has other stuff, but those two series are prob best. Especially for bible thumpers.

When I saw TexMo’s #8 all in bold text, I knew we had another problem with Coffee & Covid tags. Attorney Childers does love him some bold text, but occasionally he gets in a hurry and leaves the bold tag open. I finally found it and removed the problem.

I thought is was me at first, but after I checked my post I realized it was not me. I then remembered the last time the entire blog was bathed in boldness.

Well there is a nice big Doe (120 Lbs) hanging in the Tractor Shed,….Film @ 11. 😀

I am getting ready to head to the Medical Center to consult with a surgical oncologist. I have a gut feeling my case leans to the complicated side which necessitates a complicated surgery. Prayers for a wise, discerning, steady handed surgeon are appreciated. Apparently what I have is right up her alley and it is one of her specialities. That’s a good start.

Congratulations Dave!

What ducks would look like if Harper had a pond in her back yard.
Actually, there were ducks here when we first moved in to Chez Harp. A nice family of Mama, Papa, and 3 or 4 offspring ducks. They came up from White Oak Bayou because the guy across the street didn’t have a complete fence around his back yard. I’d pitch out wildlife corn kernels for them.
-
#12 TexMo:. Kneemail up for an effective surgery and a speedy, complete recovery.
-
Super Dave:. DETAILS! What did you use to harvest the doe, how far away, shot placement, how far did she run after the shot?
We need a full blown blood report. -
#12 – Good luck with that consult. I’m pretty much of a skeptic on all things, but those doctors in the medical center are miracle workers and the best in the business. You can have the rarest of rare conditions that there are only 4 doctors in the world can treat, and 2 of them will be in the Texas Medical Center. Keep us up to date.

#13 #16 I was in my stand at the kudzu Patch where a young buck has a scrape, (since December 23). I put out Doe pee for the last 3 days hopping to see him but no luck. About 7:30 AM I caught a movement out of the corner of my eye and spotted a nice doe, crossing the Bear Creek Trail just past the dog leg. She was crossing slowly so I raised my trusty 30-06, loaded with Hornady Superformance 150 Spitzer’s. I used my doe bleat once and she stopped and looked my way, a half a second later KaBoom! He went down where she stood behind a pine log. I saw a leg come up twice and then nothing. By the time I got there she had expired. A quick, clean kill @ 127 Yds. Bullet entered her left shoulder and exited on the opposite side about midway, right through the vitals. I said a quick prayer of thankfulness and then got the Mean Orange Machine to haul her back. No need to wrestle with her, just roll her into the bucket and take her to the shed.
Oh and my Wife snapped a picture and E Mailed it to me, ole Dave and deer sausage on the hoof. Well she’s not skinning herself, I’ve got to get to work. I was hopping it would warm up a little more but it’s overcast and we’ve only made it to 45 but I can deal with that. 😉 -
Oh and TexMo Prayers up for your surgery.

TexMo, did you get a referral to the oncologist, or discover her on your own? It sounds promising!

The common thread is the jab. THEY ALL HAD TO GET IT. These types of maladies are going to be wide spread among the jabbed community and the govt/big pharma are not going to be able to hide it. I don’t think the immunity from liability provision is going to hold up in the long run, because of serial lies of omission on the part of big pharma.

Pennsylvania Commonwealth Court Strikes Down Lawlessly-Imposed 2020 Mail-In Ballot Scheme as Unconstitutional
—Ace
Want to see how upset the leftwing propaganda press is about this?A statewide court declared Friday that Pennsylvania’s expansive two-year-old mail-in voting law is unconstitutional, agreeing with challenges by Republicans who soured on mail-in voting after then-President Donald Trump began baselessly attacking it as rife with fraud in 2020’s campaign.
Not so baselessly now, eh?
The decision, by a five-judge Commonwealth Court panel of three Republicans and two Democrats, could be put on hold immediately by an appeal from Gov. Tom Wolf’s administration to the state Supreme Court.
RTWDT!

On the move this morning. Did a little work with the vacuum, cleaned and descaled the Keurig coffee maker, grilled some bacon parts and bits. Was hopeful that the new to me home theater AV receiver would arrive, but alas, it’s stuck in Ft. Worth it appears. Kitchen light is still messing up, but not as much as before. I’ll work on that last after everything else I can come up with to do gets done. I’m hoping that I can remove all the bulbs and get to the parts I need to check and replace the one problem tombstone without having to take the entire fixture down. If I’m unable top do so, then the whole thing has to come down again, which is no problem, but putting it back up takes 2 people. And I just don’t much like having bare wires hanging down from the ceiling until I can coax my brother into coming to town.

Speaking of ducks, I had a flashback to a nice Saturday in the 1990’s when I was just starting to mow the front yard. I always wore a headset over my ears to protect my hearing. I became aware that neighbors in 2 or 3 yards on the block were pointing in my direction, so I stopped the mower to figure out what was going on. In the mowed swath behind me was the whole duck family, waddling along following me and bird-chattering, but of course I couldn’t hear them over the mower plus the ears covered. I ran inside and got a container of their corn kernels, led them to the driveway and scattered the corn for them. Took a break to chat with the neighbors about the adorable “pet ducks”.

I just checked the time, and sure enough, it’s naptime.

From ACE commentary:
394. Per OANN, the Captain of USS Vinson has issued a statement on the F35 lost a few days ago in the South China Sea. He said the pilot had to eject because of a “disabling reaction” to the Covid vaccine.
The real bio-weapon isn’t the WLR, its the “vaccine.”

If there is one current news story that encapsulates the zeitgeist of absurd wokery, it is this…
Dwarf actors have reacted furiously to Disney canceling the seven dwarves from its Snow White remake after Game of Thrones star Peter Dinklage called them offensive, saying the decision robs them of work and the chance to fulfil what for some is a dream role.
Speaking to DailyMail.com after Disney’s decision to ‘rethink’ the characters, multiple actors and agents said there are plenty who would have happily accepted the jobs that Dinklage – a Golden Globe winner who was paid $1.2 million per episode of Game of Thrones – said were ‘backwards’.
The actors say Dinklage is not the authority on what the community as a whole finds offensive and that in canceling the roles, Disney has done far more damage to them than good.
Some are now begging Disney to bring the parts back and are begging for the chance to audition for them.‘It makes me so sick to my stomach to think that there are seven roles for dwarfs that can’t get normal acting roles, or very few and far between roles, and now they are gone because of this guy.
So the richest midget in America decides to be triggered by an ancient children’s story and he puts seven other dwarfs out of work. What a jackass ! How did we end up in a society so stupid that a single emotionally/mentally disturbed person has veto power over a multi-million dollar production ?

#39: We are fed up. Unfortunately there are still sheeple who believe everything they see on the CBC and other LSM and continue to drink the kool-aid. There are rallies tomorrow all over the province including the town I live near. And yes, I will be there. Went to another last weekend. I see the narrative slowly changing as the pols try to figure out how to get out the hole they keep digging. Hopefully the trucker run will really open peoples eyes. Once people stop complying, which is already happening, they lose the narrative and with it control.

I just spoke w a US / CA border crosser trucker I’ve known 20 years.
He b a r e l y made it back into Canada 2 weeks ago before the south to north ‘door was slammed shut’ (without vax proof of course)
By His count – currently there are 51,800 bobtail trucks heading for Ottawa along w approx 400,000 automobile owners. He has even seen several trucks from as far away as Pennsylvania!
Canada has received International support from Chile, Brazil, Chechoslavakia, and even Australia! (so far)
How glorious (and a bit Ironic) that Canada is showing us Americans how to GETTERDUN!!

My expectations of a major surgery were called and then raised by the surgeon. This will be an eight to eighteen hour marathon of a surgery. I’ll be filleted open like Dave’s androgynous deer this morning from stem to stern. Two week hospital stay. Eight weeks of not lifting anything over 10 lbs.
I’ll weigh a little less after she takes everything out that she knows of up front. The remainder of the time she will literally look at and touch every organ in the abdominal cavity to look for cancer. If it can be removed safely, she’ll remove it and send all specimens to pathology. Then they soak and slosh my organs with a warm chemo bath for two hours.
Fun times ahead come late March.
I don’t know how all of this will turn out, but I do know that I am in God’s hands. I am at peace.

How soon will this procedure get started? It sounds quite amazing, and along with all your family and friends, your Couch Mates will be thinking of you while that is going on.

Here’s a must-see from a friend over yonder: A video review of 4 overlooked, but perfectly suitable candidates for that opening on the Supreme Court.

#22 Katfish It was a typo; He went down where she stood behind a pine log……Sorry, I really didn’t confuse her/his/its identity.
That said; Ms Bambi is resting comfortably in a 75 Qt cooler, on the way to the processor in Clayhatchee tomorrow.
One more thing, I’ tarred, it’s been a long day but a good one. 😉 -

Thanks, I didn’t absorb that date, even though it looks like it was right there.

Bambi; I might add that the autopsy report showed that even though 06 slug exited below the spine it completely shattered the backbone just behind the ribs, missed the heart proper but removed both the Aorta and Vena Cava and took out a lot of the lungs. Death was instantaneous.

I’m scheduled for March 22nd. That will be the 30th anniversary of me asking that young hot varsity tennis player to prom. She said yes to prom and then three years later she agreed to marry me.

#44 – Wow, that sounds like a pretty comprehensive hands on review of the situation. I guess if there are any other repairs you would like while they are in there, that would be a good time to put them on the todo list. As I previously noted, those doctors over there are miracle workers, and that sounds like a pretty good overhaul. I’m assuming that your ticker and all is in good shape or they would probably not even consider doing something like this. Keep us posted.

I’m playing squares with LD2. Put dots on a page and draw lines to make squares while trying to keep opponent from making squares.
I gave her a few. Her turn. It came to my turn and she coquettishly batted her lashes at me and have me a smile as she pointed me to sit where she wanted me to draw my next line. I couldn’t help but give it to her.
“I can’t believe you fell for that!” She said as she began to fill in a series of boxes.
I had to laugh

Let your fingers do the walking takes on a while new meaning.
Prayers that the surgery is beneficial and healing is swift and complete.
And I’m sure that varsity player never regretted her decision.
