Tomorrow, I go into the VA Chop Shop for major frame and suspension modifications. Finally gonna get the hip replaced. Due to complicating factors (the bad hip is on the good leg), I'll be in longer than normal.
Got plenty of books, though.
Let the rough side drag.....

That operation was originally developed for use on German Shepherds. So, good boy, sit, stay.
Feel better |

Hoping for a quick recovery, oh less-than-clean one! |

Ouch! Good luck though filthy. Speedy recovery and all that.
In the future, will you have to have 5000 mile check ups? |

Here's hoping:
1. You have a supremely cool NDE you can share with us.
2. Your supremely cool NDE doesn't lead you to rediscover The Lawd.
3. All goes well on the surgery side.
4. You get back here pronto.
Not necessarily in that order.

Yes too, don't do anything during your OBE that I wouldn't do.

All the best to you Filthy.
Hope it's not too late for you to read this....But don't forget to draw an Arrow (to make sure they do the correct one) on the hip on the side that they are doing the work.
I did for my gull bladder surgery. My doctor thought it was cute but I was serious.
The food is good though, so have fun while you are there.

| Filthy, sorry if I missed it posted elsewhere here but, how the hell are you?! How'd the operation go? |

Actually, I'm now worth $7.49, plus NC sales tax.
Again, many thanks, guys. Your thoughts are deeply appreciated.
Snake, I did indeed get the bum hip marked -- the doc did it himself, just to be sure. I heard a horror story of a guy who went to the hospital to have a cancerous leg amputated, and they took off the wrong one. Now, instead of walking with a track and a dot, he's in a sled. Can't vouch for this. Just a story.
Randy, I'm now up on the leg and doing good. Still pretty painful, though, but that's slowly fading.
Lisa, I go in for my first service -- oil change, set the timing, tighten the fanbelt, and so forth -- on the 31th of this month.
Zander, I'm told I'll have to take a bath before the check-up. 
Ok Slater, I been good. Where's my biscuit.
