We did it! We have been using dial up telephone service for our computer since we had our first Gateway/IBM compatible system back in the early 1990's. We now have Roadrunner cable service and our waiting days are over (I think). Just $10 down and a lifetime to pay.
Just an update on Brett Favre, the toughest man on the planet. He had ankle surgery to remove bone spurs (remember he had no anesthetic). Well it is reported today that he took out his own stitches on a flight from Mississippi to Florida. Who needs doctors. Then he took the stitches and wadded them up and made chewing tobacco out of them. I'm told he knawed on the stitches "chaw" for long time.
The pressure is on to get Nana out of the Rocky Knoll nursing facility and back into Kindred Hearts. The government is expediting the process. Yeah, right. I am not a psychologist but anytime you are in a strange surrounding for a long time (and you don't want to be there), patience runs short. The calvary is on the way (your Mom).
Grasshopper No. 4 has Wisconsin going to the final game of the NCAA tournament that starts Thursday. Talk about being blinded by school loyality. Until Brian Butch can shove people around in the center (he is out with a fractured elbow) and until Tucker can shoot free throws that don't hit the front of the rim, Wisconsin will get an early ticket home. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see Wisconsin go far in the tournament. I just wouldn't put any money on them.
Tomorrow they finish the root canal on a tooth that they started 2 weeks ago. This time expert endodonics doctors get in volved and should finish the job. It seems to me that you shouldn't have to endure two root canals on the same tooth. I wonder how they charge for the service. Do I get billed twice?
Days are getting longer. Temperatures are rising. Spring is next week.
Stay warm.
Love,
Dad
