Clarence, good to see you!

I've been sending on all of the messages to COnnie, so she can print them out for him. She's read the first batch and had this to say, as well as an update from Wayne:

i really enjoyed laughing..many, many "runners up" but i think biggest laugh has gotta go to the STAT order for another litre (or is it liter...I've read so much of other-than-the-USA version of English spelling...) of p***and vinegar. Spaw's surliness is expodential in the hospital.

Although, the devil's concern about him farting near the fire and brimstone may be accurate, also. ( and was a very close 1st runner up) Bill (Sables) and the Boys can attest to a little recollection our boys had about the day the lights went out in the kitchen (simultaneous to a trademark gaseous expulsion)...maybe Sam can come up with a reel about that?

Yeah - a call from Wayne.

K and W were just allowed into see Pat. W reports that Pat opened his eyes and looked at/knows them though W doubts that Pat will remember it.

The current plan of action is to have P off the vent in about 6 hours and if all goes well there, to then remove the endo-trachial tube. He will be in SICU til the morning and then evaluated for a step down.

THANKS, MAXWIZARD for the Marley-man, beautiful and just hits the spot. Hope you've had good news, too, darlin'.
