Subject: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: Rapparee Date: 21 Apr 11 - 11:19 PM Okay, Bobert's wife, Olddude's wife, and my wife all had breast cancer so far this year. Today the doctor told me that it was my turn: I'd probably need knee surgery, about six weeks out. Bobert, Olddude -- watch yourselves! This stuff can't be just coincidence! Them black helicopter dudes are on us! |

Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: alanabit Date: 22 Apr 11 - 03:38 AM Speaking as a member of the Mudcat Youth Faction, I can tell you I had my left knee operated on for the meniscus in July 2009. I am now back to training four times a week, so it seems to have gone all right. Good luck Rap. I am sure it will go well. |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: Lizzie Cornish 1 Date: 22 Apr 11 - 03:45 AM Love and hugs, Rap, and wishes for a speedy recovery. |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: ragdall Date: 22 Apr 11 - 04:18 AM Good luck, Rapparee! I think that you're on to something. My husband is booked for cancer surgery in two weeks and my knees have started having a very hard time negotiating stairs. rags |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: Leadfingers Date: 22 Apr 11 - 07:05 AM Hope all goes well Rap - just remember that so many of these 'new' medical procedures are routine now |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: Bobert Date: 22 Apr 11 - 08:03 AM Well, sheet fire, Rap... I do knees, too... Got my own tools, an' all... Like what exactly you need ol' Bobert to do??? I got books on this stuff and can handle any thing that might come up... And here's the best part: Half Price thru the end of May!!! B~ |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: Ed T Date: 22 Apr 11 - 08:34 AM Left Knee, right Knee or, wee Knee? :) Good luck with that. My brother had one recently and his recovery was amazingly good. |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: gnu Date: 22 Apr 11 - 08:38 AM Oh dear! You'd better kick Shane's ass quick like! Hope it all goes well. |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: olddude Date: 22 Apr 11 - 09:05 AM Ok Rap, I am going to dig me a bomb shelter. Bobster you and P-vine are welcome also ... The shells flying over our heads right now are getting kinda metal heavy ya know. Thanks for the recon my brother. Sorry you caught one in the knee. Remember to duck and keep low ... Seriously Bro, let me know if you need anything and heal up quick. |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: Bobert Date: 22 Apr 11 - 09:35 AM Thanks for the invite, Ol'ster, but if I want to be dodging live ammo, I'd sign up to go to Libya... Yo, Rap... Don't forget the most important think about knee operations and that is the recovery/rehabilitation... Get stocked up on Iron City beer and you'll be just fine... B~ |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: Rapparee Date: 22 Apr 11 - 10:15 AM Not immediately -- he estimates six weeks from now because I'll be doing therapy both before and after. And you oughta see the knee brace I'm weating..or better not to. I was just warning y'all. Hmmm...maybe cancer is someone is connected to knee problems in the SO....toe bone's connected to the butt bone and all that.... |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: topical tom Date: 22 Apr 11 - 10:54 AM Best wishes for a speedy recovery, Rap! |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: Amergin Date: 22 Apr 11 - 11:00 AM Rap....I'm just trying to figure out why you were on your knees so much, you need surgery.....oh well, hope your recovery is fast! |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: gnu Date: 22 Apr 11 - 12:45 PM Amergin... he was praying for Shane's soul... that's a LOTTA wear and tear on the knees. |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: Bill D Date: 22 Apr 11 - 12:45 PM "How's yer knee?" "Oh, can't kick." Have it fused in the 'up' position...then you can apply for a permanent position as a music stand. (ummm... I wouldn't trust Bobert's cheapo operations.... he's been under a lot of stress, and might mistake the medulla for the patella.) |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: olddude Date: 22 Apr 11 - 01:41 PM Well me chrons is drivin me nuts and been gettin chest pains so I figure I will be the next one to drop ... yeesh ... I am kinda thinkin on April as an unlucky month for all of us lately. |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: Bobert Date: 22 Apr 11 - 04:04 PM Don't listen to Bill, Rap... He uses them big words to confuserate things... I can fix ya, an' yo can take that to the bank... BTW, if I had to cut on my own knee, I'd do a littler Iron City rehab prior to the operation, too... May a couple during it... If ya' change yer mind, lemme know... We'll call up everyone and make it a Rap's Knee Operation Bash... Bring is some KFC and maybe an entire keg of Iron City... Yezzir, and we'll do it in the comfort of yer living room, or back yard... Make it real homey... B~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: GUEST,999 Date: 22 Apr 11 - 05:28 PM `shine: count me in. But none of that sissy 90 proof stuff. |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: Melissa Date: 22 Apr 11 - 05:46 PM Is this Operation Bash for men only? I need some work done and haven't been able to find a surgeon who is brave enough to take the project. I'm sure timidity won't be a problem with all that Iron City and 'shine on hand.. I can bring a feedsack of mushrooms. |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: Rapparee Date: 22 Apr 11 - 07:06 PM I got some 151 Lamb's I got in Canada...unopened liter or more. |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: Bobert Date: 22 Apr 11 - 07:20 PM Well, heck yeah. Melissa... What kind operation you want Doc Bobert to do??? I don't do much of them womenz kindz... You know, like hizzectomies but purdy okay with bones and joints and brains... I once put a dog brain in my brother... Things turned out okay 'cept he has a tendency to sniff people crotches and chase cars... Other than that, he's kinda okay... As fir shine... Water is 90 proof, right??? No, good shine is like a buck eighty... But nevermind that, just don't get no fruit in it... I mean, if I want Cool-aid, I'll get Cool-aid... Shine is shine and Cool-aid ain't... Call yer other doc, Rap, and tell him you got a better deal... B~ |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: Rapparee Date: 22 Apr 11 - 11:22 PM I did. He said bad words and some things about you that I just ain't gonna repeat in a nice place like this. Seems like you got some sort of reputation, as well as several outstanding warrants. |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: frogprince Date: 23 Apr 11 - 11:08 AM Are y' lookin' at repairin' what's there, or gettin' things sawed off and replaced. Rap? |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: Rapparee Date: 23 Apr 11 - 12:14 PM Repair. What's there just hurts when I use it. |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: Bill D Date: 23 Apr 11 - 12:31 PM I can hear the doc now as he finishes: "That's a wrap on the Rapaire repair." |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert, Olddude -- Beware! From: Rapparee Date: 23 Apr 11 - 06:47 PM No, it will be a wrap on the wrapped Rapparee repair -- I want them to bandage the danged thing up. |
