  • Mornin' BBB When I first saw the "45", my mind went to the .45-70 govt gun caliber, then I realized it was for the 45th and 47th presidencies. So far am I removed from our either this or that political system. My Libertarian side is getting stronger. So if I were to sport a wine label with a statement, I would serve this…
  • Mornin' gents. Frosty here. Light dusting. Let's hope wisdom overcomes testosterone. Physical strength is always nice, but let physics do the work. We have electric lift tables in the exam rooms, and although sometimes dogs don't like the ride, the lift tables save a lot of wear and tear on the lower back and knees. M is…
  • Mornin' gents. Really nice Thanksgiving dinner in Manhattan with DS#2. Had a very good prime rib, first time ever on Thanksgiving. Traffic in and out of NYC was challenging. Your hikes are inspiring, Dave. Some kids have wanderlust, Mike. Sounds good that she has gotten an apartment near her family. Onward and downward :-)
  • Mornin' BBB Sorry about your Turkey Day disappointment and your forever headache, Skip. Thankfully, I have never been a parade goer/watcher. I used to abhor parade duty as a Boy Scout and National Guardsman. NYC is about as woke as it gets. We snuck into Manhattan for dinner on the east side as the parade hoopla was…
  • Just bought my Kansas non resident small game hunting license online for my one or two days chasing pheasant in western Kansas come late December. Happy Turkey Day! Onward and downward ;-)
  • Mornin' BBB How was the flight, Dennis? Smooth sailing. Heading into NYC for Thanksgiving dinner with DS#2. Raining all day here. Enjoy family and food today. BBB OP ;-)
  • " Bon voyage! " Bugs Bunny Miller Lite is made from barley. Great news about Ricey! Baby steps.
  • Mornin' gents. Hmm, what happened to Hump Day? Let dogs out at 5:10 and went back to bed until 6:20. Could have slept in longer but M was revving up the vacuum cleaner. I miss the good old days you could tinker with your car/truck's tune. There is a meme on FB about how no one is going to want to renovate a Tesla in 20-30…
  • Mornin' BBB New car problems. Remember the Wagoner? Have you ever considered a mobile vet to see if Tucker would prefer? BBB OP ;-)
  • Mornin' gents. The Egyptians have nothing on you, Mike. Where there is a will, there is a way. Meant to wish Collin well on his new job. How is the dizziness today? Onward and downward ;-)
  • Mornin' gents. Sometimes allergies can cause vertigo. Onward and Downward ;-)
  • Yeah, Monument seems to have its own micro climate apart from Denver and Colorado Springs.
  • Ugh, good fences make good neighbors.
  • Mornin' BBB Not too much going on today. BBB OP ;-)
  • Hope last night was better for you, Steve. Adjusting down the dose of SSRI's can be tricky in dogs, but a slow taper over 2-4 weeks tends to prevent side effects. The most common one we use is Prozac (fluoxetine). I googled weaning off Zoloft in humans. Sure sounds like your symptoms. Take care, buddy. Worked yesterday…
  • Ugh, sorry about headache and vehicle, Skip. Dave, where did the damage happen this time? That is just maddening. My head would have exploded. Congrats Lou! Cute lil' thang. Probably good the pup is yours now, I see the previous owner took the dog to Banfield for its Rabies booster. I would suggest finding a different vet.…
  • Our wee farm is in Monument CO, not Colorado Springs https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monument,_Colorado#:~:text=Colorado%20Springs%20(20%20miles%20to,inches%20of%20snow%20per%20year. Truthfully, I wouldn't mind doing that, Steve. But I do not hate working (Corporate is actually treating me pretty well at this point) and I do…
  • Mornin' BBB Amitriptyline. Very familiar with that drug. It has many indications for usage. Hope it does the trick for the headaches, Skip. If it is the answer, then that helps with diagnosing the cause of the headache. I am super sodium sensitive, Mary. I gets swollen hands and feets with overzealous salting of restaurant…
  • LOVE my Filson gear. So much cooler that it was yer dad's. M hates snow. The snow in Monument rarely accumulates for more than a day or two. The arid environment tends to burn it off pretty quick and DGS definitely makes it totally OK. Gotta put the nose to the grindstone today. Onward and downward ;-)
  • First snow of the season this am. Pretty. M is not impressed with the snow. She is now all about Colorado home/community and will not say anything complimentary about our home of over 20 yrs. I guess I have another year of geographic negativity. She really would like for me to just pack up move to CO now. (((sigh))) Wanna…
  • Mornin' BBB Allergies can be cumulative or additive. If there is only one or two things in the environment then you may not have symptoms, but if there are three or four or more, then symptoms erupt. But I agree that stress/anxiety as being a highly suspect causation. And hopefully, as Arnold's charactor John Kimble said…
  • Mornin' BBB Am a wee bit jellyous of your ship trip, Dennis. The itinerary sounds delicious once you leave Southampton. Picking up M this afternoon. Raining all day here, so no field trial training, which is not an issue because I am not planning on running any field trials until the spring anyway. I would go to help the…
  • Mornin' gents. Got busy and never posted after starting us off yesterday. Picking up M at the airport this afternoon, then taking her out to dinner on the way home. Hope it is as good as the Kansas fish and chips. It might be at a tacoria. "I look forward to hearing how you MacGyver the move of that piano up to your…
  • Mornin' BBB Sorry you are still having the headaches. I would go back to the Neurologist, Skip. He found a problem that a cardiologist had to fix. Now that problem has been ruled out as a possible cause of the headaches, now he can go back to work on the list of differentials. I really likes the new whip. Picking up M…
  • Mornin' BBB Hope you follow up with a head doctor for those headaches. Good you got the carotids cleaned up, but it doesn't sound like they were the root of the headache issue. Sam, do you feel like the shoulder is getting better in spite of physical torture? I like the cold soup thing, but it is definitely a seasonal…
  • Mornin' gents. Well, at least you don't have to worry about bits of thigh bone fractured by a lead pellet, or the lead pellet itself with Costco Chicken. I'm pretty good at trimming and picking all that out before the cook, but I chew carefully. The recipe I use also gives a substitution of rotisserie chicken. Still eating…
  • Mornin' BBB Vichyssoise Day...seems like it should be during the summertime, cold soup in the fall does not sound appealing. Sounds like you need to go back to see the headache doctor, Skip. BBB OP ;-)
  • Mornin' gents. I agree with the worth of your work, Dave. Some kind of bug is going around out in Colorado too. DGS brought it home from daycare. Thankfully, I didn't need Kelce to win my fantasy matchup this week. I believe that Taylor may have eyes for Josh Allen. I actually got stuff down around the house and yard…
