Was just reading that Ryan Reynolds did it and they found and removed a polyp. His doctor said that this potentially could have saved his life. Definitely worth doing.

I'm talking about a colonoscopy. You guys are too, right?

All 3 of the above were a handful to drive in crosswinds, not to mention they started slowing down when in sight of a grade.

They took my lucky polyp out, still no word on biopsy.

APPARENTLY I convinced my wife, after the procedure, that we should travel up the coast to Chumash casino. That afternoon I also lost my a$$ . . .

Saturday night (still had my lucky polyp) I played almost 5 hours of 3 card poker at Pechanga: +$11.

They take it out, I go to Chumash, and I lose 900 PLUS, had to buy gas at the casino since the wife was on fumes as we arrive: 6.45 for regular

Was she on fumes, or fuming? Slight difference here.

You know you're old when...

You're leaving 3 tracks.

Your left foot, your right foot, and your ass.

FML - I turned my head to look for oncoming traffic while merging onto the bridge Wednesday morning and I pulled a muscle in my neck that goes down into my back. Holy shit, it hurts. How the hell do you pull a muscle by turning your head? I must have been sitting crooked or something.

Happy Friday all!

Worst back muscle pull ever was reaching to pat one of our cats while bent over. Took a week to recover.

I've noticed as I get older I have less and less mobility in my neck and I feel it most when I have to look around while I'm driving, so I can relate.

Happy Friday to you as well.

When you get up in the morning and nothing hurts, but you can't remember the last time that you felt that way.

Mine was standing up out of a chair after eating breakfast. Don't know how/why, but I was out of commission for a week.

You are excited when The Eagles come to town, and you go to see their performance.
And you download Hotel California to your bimmer.

You know that you're *old* when your first copy of "Hotel California" was on an 8-track tape.....

Are you that old?

BTW, that came out in 1956. I was a 1 year old.

PS - if I remember right you're 6 years older than me.

LP's came before 45's.

If it was on 78, THEN you're old.
