Rear-Ended........But, I'm OK!!!



About a month ago, I needed to have some scrips renewed, and I had some bloodwork done. This last Friday I had more bloodwork to see if my meds was working properly. So today I had my yearly physical, and the doctor went over the results with me..
Hemoglobin A1C came down..
I lost 1 1/2 pounds
My triglicerides came down 60 points
My cholesterol dropped 40 points
My PSA's were perfect
Thyroid perfect
EKG..Perfect!
Blood-Pressure 128/78....

PROSTATE....YEEEOOOOOW!!!!...Perfect!!!

See you tomorrow Peace...!!!

I Love Spring.....







Hi everybody...
I hope you all had a great week-end.
I had to work Saturday, so Sunday was my only day off.
That gave me time to clean and dust..
Mow the lawn...
Go get a Tim Horton's coffee..
Prepare Brunch (BLT's )..
And while my son treated my wife to the New Star Trek movie..
Marinate chicken and ribs for a late afternoon dinner for about 8 people..
I decided not to put a wet sauce on the grilled meat, and it went just great with my 'Killer' Gargozola/Pecan/Romaine/Red Onion/Roma Tomato/Raspberry Vinaigrette dinner salad, and I also made Curry/Marsala Jasmine rice!!
Topped off with a cold refreshing Molson Canadian...
What could be better?
Have a Great Week.....
Peace...!!!

Friday Flash 55 ....Redux



Tonight I'm reposting a 55 from December of 07.
Some of you may remember that my friend Ned, died at age 54 of a stroke. We were lifelong friends and college fraternity brothers. The one year anniversary of his memorial was last week, and at that service I was asked to ride Ned's Harley in the procession. His favorite niece Carry wanted to ride on Uncle Nedly's bike one last time, and it was one of the Great Honors of my life to do this for his family, and my friend. Ned's sister E-Mailed this pic yesterday, and I felt I needed to post this 55 one more time......To Ned.

.

We had great fun Nedly
My long and loyal friend
We thought that we were immortal
That the party would never end
But the years catch up to you
Time is NEVER on your side
So buckle-up, and rev it up.
For that long final ride
Soon enough brother....
We'll be riding side by side.

.

If you or anyone you know has written a Friday Flash 55, please come tell The G-Man.
I will visit, read, enjoy, comment...Then BOOK!!!
So from the most gracious host from coast to coast.
Have a Great Week-End..!
Peace...!!!

Retro-Wednesday.....




Hi Everybody...Ready for some Un-Creativity?

They say everything OLD becomes NEW again, at sometime or another.

This yellow beauty rolled off the truck today for some lucky owner.

Based on the 1968 Camaro,( top pic )this baby stickers out at $35,000!

The V-6 Model starts at about $25,000.

It may be a tad late to save GM completely, but we're giving it a shot!

Peace...!!!

Change of Pace.....



OK.....I'm tired of 'Gooberville', hows about some easy reading Ramblings?

Tonights Antiques Road Show is from Grand Rapids Michigan.

In 1587, Virginia Dare was the First white child born in the Colonies. On August 18th on what is now Roanoke Island North Carolina.

I hit a deer today with my car. I hit it on it's rear haunch going about 25 mph. It rolled twice, got up and took off, darted back across the road, and I almost hit it again. My front bumper is a bit dented..They are like RATS!!!

In 1980, there were wild and/or feral pigs in only 13 states. Today there are Wild Hogs in 40 states!!!( Mark my words...This WILL be a future problem )

In 1921, Margaret Gorman became the 1st Miss America. She was 16 and 30-25-32!

I had a fellow blogger tell me a few weeks back, that Blogging and Posting are becoming obsolete. Twitter and FaceBook are now whats happenin'. I claimed that there is not a whole lot of creativity in just Twittering. I was then told that taking pics of my junk..er Treasures, isn't really all that creative either. Well that may be so, but I put a lot of effort into making Friday's fun and creative around here. And more than one recipe' has been shared on Posts. I find that much more fun and gratifying than hearing about shit on Twitter..."Oh, I just took a shower"!! or "I hate Wednesday TV"! or "I'm so bored and hungry"..Boo Fucking Hoo!!!!
Any thoughts?
Anyway, see ya tomorrow with yet another very UN-creative post.

Peace...!!!
