I had a similar experience to Lee with my one good Chiropractor I went to who was a Dr for the us Olympic Team. Nothing excessive but did the trick for both my stiff neck and a leg issue. He doesn't live here now. Big Game today Oregon #3 vs Ohio State #2 at Oregon's home of Autzen Stadium. Noise will be unbearable echoing…

Wow Bill looks like ya ready to go with all those PODS etc. Nice. football was great for Oregon beating Michigan State and Washington beating Michigan. Lots of shake ups in the Ap poll especially with the Vanderbilt Commodores beating Alabama. First time in 64 tries they beat a top 5 rated team. Went from 0-63 to 1-64 now.…

yup Nice weather for Florence. Vegas is... well Vegas hot. a That is just ridiculous Lee. I too don't like the way various intake nurses or whomever ask there dumb questions from a script ignoring all known facts. My hands get too cold too easily and then don't work right. I use to soak them sometimes in warm/hottish water…

Been AWOL here a few days. Doing fine. Glad Sam go home ok but with lots of cleaning up to do. Niuce picts from Mike for sure!!! Hoping for the best info with Rita's MRI results. Oh man Lee! So sorry about the pain going on!! Slept in til 5:30 today. Got in a short bike ride in the brisk 47 deg weather.

Well bumped myself out before finishing my replies. Gosh Sam you can't heal your shoulder, hand and elbow up any too soon. I feel for ya. Ts and Ps. Glad you got the HOT dog back up on its feet Lee. At least my version of the eye CIN is not invasive as confirmed several times now so no additional treatment needed. Just…

Wow Sam sounds like quite the ordeal with the shoulder. Glad all went well in Salem for ya Dave. Even when expected life changes are a time of introspection. I miss the most of having conversations with my parents. Hang in there Bill and tell yourself "self pace your self!" Easy to say. Oh I am having an appointment with…

Well I lost my post this a.m. I really am sending good Ts and Ps for Collin and hoping for the best with his job. Hope your PT is working Sam. I am having a pesky knee and shoulder right now.l hrmph! Yea Dave safe travels to Salem. I still think of that wonderful Woolen Mill and that Heritage site a lot. I myself am having…

Oh gosh sending my best Ts and Ps for Connie. Recording the Wisconsin Alabama(4) football game for DW who is a Wisconsin Alum and watching the Ducks (Oregon) play the Oregon State Beavers. I had a boss who use to say regarding counter-tops etc "there isn't enough horizontal space in the world). I too can have trouble…

How soon I forgot. It was actuall 100degrees at my house near PDX a week ago Thursday and now I don't expect to see 80 degrees until next year some time. His in the upper 60s to low 70s now. 47 degrees at my house this a.m. Good luck for Connie and her upcoming tests. Hey Dave I rode before and after my covid and flu shots…

Yes 9/11 was a day burned in to my memory. I was on heavy narcotics at home nursing my welded together broken back (fused t4-t7) when I saw the second plane come in live. A solemn remembrance for sure. Gosh I am smelling the biscuits, Chicken Fried Steak, and gravy thru my computer screen in Oregon.... OMG!!! Good luck for…

WHEW Bill! I was thinking, hoping and praying that the scan was OK. My Radiation Oncologist has warned me about the not unheard of spurious PSA readings and possible elevations. Hey Dave best of luck singing in church. Suppose to be more moderate today w heat. A bit of high level smoke/haze but "ok" at ground level.

OK OK it was more of a spiral shaped pasta and cheese but the good part was having it baked in a wood fired oven. My wife stabbed my hand with a fork several times as I tried to "steal" some more bites of that delectable dish in Madagascar which she ordered. They were out of potatoes au gratin but had this "pasta au…

Good luck w PT Sam!! Best Mac and cheese I ever ever had was in Madagascar (they called it something like "pasta a la fromage"??) Don't know the cheese but was cooked in a wood fired oven to boot. YUM YUM YUM Sounds like a great hike Dave!! And luv me some filipina cookin' Off today to get a WW weigh-in.

Yup nice picts Mike!!! Happy Labor Day all! I admit I like to bike. 142,000 miles and counting as an adult. I don't run anymore and don't hike as fast as others. I love canoe adventure but don't own one. "Went for several days in Alaska w my brother one time camping out. cheers

Ooooh ya had me at Pho I just love it especially with beef tendon etc. Bill I hope the PSA test is not a big deal. The PSMA PET scan is "the cat's meow" when it comes to dx. Praying for you as I know it's hard to deal with test results. My radiation oncologist keeps me pretty calm. Ts and Ps for sure. Sorry about the skunk…

Nothing of note in the MRI. Kinda what I thought. No problems w carotid arteries etc. Keep up the good work Bill albeit carefuly!!

Oooh I love Madrone, a beautiful NW wood. I weather was a bit warmer in PDX yesterday up to about 85deg. Cool 70s again today and tomorrow then bouncing up into the 90degree range Thur,Fri, and Sat . Had MRI yesterday of my head. Probably nothing to see there--ha ha ha. Would show carotid issues if any though. Stay comfy…

Glad to hear you are doing better Bill. Chilly indeed but will be warmer than Tumwater/Olympia so let the house cool a bit. Off to church outside today. Will bundle up.

Strange weather indeed. Was 51degrees this a.m. first thing and foggy. Slight shower after midnight. Yup I salt loaded yesterday and my weight is up just shy of 2 LB. Sorry about your back Steve. Mike I use an Aspects HummZinger High View hanging hummingbird feeder. Much easier to clean and it is said that when you keep…

Like Dave it's wet here too. Chilly showers this a.m. and maybe heavier rain by 5-6pm too. We'll see. we need the moisture. Dave is a lean mean fighting machine. Hope the scoping went well Bill. Hang in there guys

Amazing article indeed. Good Luck Bill with the colonoscopy. I am thinking of doing a pizza in my Traegar. should give some "woodfire" overtones to the pizza I think. Still waiting for the showers to come in from the coast.

Wow Bill Busy busy busy. Good luck with the PSA and colonoscopy. I do yoga pretty much daily. I might miss one day a week on average. I just have to do it. Steve the aquarium sounds great. 90s and humid not my cuppa tea. I always said I wanted to live near the ocean and the mountains. About 70 to 90' drive to Mountains or…

Steve: In my case I bike from home 99.9% of the time. Having said that I don't ride the long ride over the West Hills and thru Portland to see me dentist at Mt Tabor these days. Part of it is other health conditions but also the traffic situation is bad too. For many decades I rode up over the Hills to work and also out to…

3-2-1 ribs sound great and I would eat them 1-2-3 pronto!! YUM!! LOved the goggle dog pict Lee! Congrats on the 250LB Lee. Yea Dave salted cashews will do that to ya! Good luck with Rita's appt! Grief Sam sorry about the eye appt!

Wow Lee stuffed peppers sound great!!I had a somewhat similar parking lot inccident and my deductible was covered by uninsured motorist provision. Good Luck Dave with your discussions. I have been with the same company for a long time and they are good to me. I saved my car door to show that I wasn't moving when the…

Oooooh "OFF TO THE WOODS" sounds great. Much better than out to ye olde woodshed for a would be whoopin' Just Sayin. Yikes Dave so sorry about your car. My eye Doc was astounded at my eye recovery in my appt yesterday. Basically went from "zero" vision (a couple of weeks ago) (Uh no see-um the eye chart let alone the big…

I like different breads for a BLT. Currently I like my local Dos Hermanos Sour Dough as a nice fresh option. My BLT was great for sure. Dave: My insurance wouldn't make me pay a deductible when I am hit by another driver in a parking lot. Never hurts to ask. It would just be entered under "uninsured motorist" kind of thing…

Hanging in there off to see my eye doc tomorrow. Yup Dr appts get in the way etc etc. Now back in rather cool and cloudy days w his in the 70s instead of upper 80s to 90s etc. Will probably eat my first BLT today made from a Siletz tomato (nice "beef steak/slicer morphology" and can weigh more than 1/2 lb to maybe max…

Holy red spatula bits Dave!!!! Glad that passed. Our warmer/hot weather is passing. Brisket has my name on it for sure!!!! wished I had me some of that brisket to watch my recording of the Women soccer and more. Cheers all.

Lee RE Tomatoes it is true above a certain temperature they wont set fruit. One reason tomatoes are a winter crop in places like Arizona I hear. Gosh Sam I am so sorry about your bum shoulder. HRMPH! Hang in there. Torture is their middle name I think!!! PT Physical Torture same dif. Sorry I have been AWoL a few days. I…
