| Bookers Bourbon and a good cigar  |
Pre-op check this morning, measured my height: 70 inches (5'10") WITH MY SHOES ON!. WHAT! When I retired in 1985 I was 73 inches (6'1"). Where did that 3 inches go? They checked my Blood Sugar...167. Since July 31 (Monday) at 3pm nothing to eat, drinking only unsweet tea, coffee and water, lots of water. Where the hell did that 167 come from? Next: Little back history: Colonoscopy history started for me around 1990. A few polyps and some diverticulitis...see you in 3 years. 3 years later...see you in 3 years. Then, good, see you in 5 years, then see you in 5 years, and again, 5 years. Today...see you in ONE YEAR. Polyps and diverticulitis is back. I think I'm going to start smoking again, just for laughs. If you're goin' through hell, keep on going. Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it. You might get out before the devil even knows you're there. NRA ENDOWMENT LIFE MEMBER | ||

Yeah, back in 2010 they told me the same thing, "see you in one year." They're still waiting. הרחפת שלי מלאה בצלופחים | |||

Yeah. At our age do we really care anymore? If you're goin' through hell, keep on going. Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it. You might get out before the devil even knows you're there. NRA ENDOWMENT LIFE MEMBER | |||

I got this stupid box I'm supposed to shat in. I've had it for 6 months. I think I will toss it out tomorrow. Beagle lives matter. | |||

^^^^^ Good For you! The thought of USPS transporting my poop box for purposes of a possible cancer diagnosis is a hard pass. End of Earth: 2 Miles Upper Peninsula: 4 Miles | |||

At least it's in height, not length!  ______________________________________________________________________ "When its time to shoot, shoot.

That can happen also. In proportion to the growth of one's belly. "We're all travelers in this world. From the sweet grass to the packing house. Birth 'til death. We travel between the eternities." | |||

Jokingly had this conversation this afternoon, about my height. Said I was 6'4" theoretically. That I hadn't measured my height or my dick since I was in high school. One I'm pretty sure is less than it used to be, the other I KNOW is.   | |||

| Thank you Very little  |
I took my 85 year old dad in for his first checkup with a new Doc, they told him he was 5'11 and he insisted he was still 6'3, that "everything shrinks with age" must be a real thing.... | |||

Not sure exactly how tall I am nowadays. I haven't been in a 7-Eleven for a while.  הרחפת שלי מלאה בצלופחים | |||

I think the one year thing probably has to do with medicare... more procedures because the government is paying for it. since I got on it I'm getting all kinds of stuff from my supplemental insurance about all the free things and test I can get along with home visits and such... somebody has to pay for all this...

Sarcasm? That test saved my life- and I'm a lot younger than either of you. | |||

got one of those too a few years ago. As the nurse explained how it worked I told her “ the dog owes me one I’ll get him to help “ ----------The weather is here I wish you were beautiful---------- | |||
