    Definitely. But man, they do take a long time. Hope you get good results.

    My "stepdad" was supposed to have a PET scan Fri, but his insurance wouldn't cover it, so he's getting a CT scan today. We're hoping it is not cancer again.

    12ish years ago I was diagnosed with two bulged discs. They've bothered me ever since, but it has been manageable. The last couple of months the pain has been a lot worse, so I've gotten off my butt to address it again. The doctor thinks a couple of cortisone shots may do the trick, but because it has been so long since I've had detailed imaging done, he wants to get an updated look first.


    Here's hoping your stepdad's scan comes back negative.

    Oh here's hoping for the cortisone. You've not had shots there before, right?

    Nope. Had a cortisone shot in my shoulder once, but never the back.

    I'm formatting an infant baptism liturgy for work, and sitting here reading these words reminds me, strongly, just how much I don't miss religion in my life.

    I just offered to pay one of my friends for some technical work with cash, booze or ammunition.

    God bless America.

    Dunno, you tell me: What do you bring to the table? I'm all about custom work done by Americans.

    Nothing makes me feel more patriotic than wearing something made by a middle-aged white male.

    It's the new purple.

    I am not, in fact, Carlos Ray Norris. I'm actually more of a Schwarzenegger fan.

    Chuck's good and all, but Arnold's been both an alien-killing commando and a skin-covered robot from the future.

    I'm watching the first Pine Grosbeak of the winter season eating at my favorite bird feeder cam in Ontario, and a Sharp-shinned hawk just flew over my building.

    These two things make me infinitely happier than I was 30 seconds ago.

    I just got an email advertising these: Grey Suits - Garrison Bespoke


    If they had "stabbed in the neck with scissors-proof" suits I might consider it.
