That’s got to be hard when wifey pegs you...

In the midst of a flare up as we speak. Have had bronchitis for the past week and a half and all the coughing has me sore everyplace.

Getting old ain't for the meek, my friends.

Had an MRI a year ago....degenerative disk disease, 3 bulging disks in my lower back. Someday I'll look back on now and remember these as the good old days when I could still do stuff.

My brother just blew his knee out. He was carrying a ladder. Slipped on some ice, and twisted funny. He's 73. But looks like he's 60.

Both of my knees have torn meniscus. Was getting syn-vis shots in my left knee.

Me thinks our friend Rusty needs to never leave home without the bailing wire and duct tape.....and not for his car either.
