Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Rumncoke Date: 13 Apr 08 - 08:00 PM I just got a TENS machine - I've got a knee that has hurt for years, every step I took, some days more, some times less, and it threw my balance off, made my hips ache and my back protest - half a dozen 15 minute sessions and it is not hurting most of the time. It only cost me 15 pounds sterling - about 30 US dollars, - batteries not included. No one told me about these things - even after physiotherapy and painkillers failed. Then last week I called in at the pharmacy and saw one, got a rundown on what not to do with it, took one home and today I was even thinking of taking a walk, until the hailstones started to fall. Maybe - perhaps? one of these could be of some help to you? Look it up on Google or Wiki it. I do hope so, I feel that I have drawn a real live 'get out of jail' card. Anne |

Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Bobert Date: 13 Apr 08 - 07:40 PM If he's actin' like that then he prolly all rabbied up... Smack him with a shovel a couple times and take his poor body off to the local landfill... That's what the P-Vine has threatened to do wid me if I don't get this tuff off me... She says it will be a mercy killin'... Heck, I still got one good arm... That G-hog is no good... My G-hog ain't him, tho... I just looked out the window and the sumabich is eatin grass on the back of the farm... He knows I gotta an open sight 410/22 so he ain't the slightest bit worried... I'm gonna get him befoe the beets come up...He went theu a row of them last year... Okay, I ain't into the beet part but I love beet tops and that's what he loves, too... Gonna be his downfall 'cause I shoot lefty and next time he's in my sights he gona go to that big ol' beet row in the sky... Sho nuff is... B~ |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Janie Date: 13 Apr 08 - 07:12 PM Bobert, I think you done run that groundhog off. Leastwise, that is the only explanation I have for the bold feller that I thought was a new neighborhood cat exploring my front porch this morning - leastwise, until I saw it's ugly mug. I figured he was good and lost, and most likely new to these parts. (no kidding - I've never had one stroll up a 5 foot rise of steps and hang out on the front veranda before. Bold little b*stard.) |

Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Rapparee Date: 13 Apr 08 - 06:41 PM I just picked up a dead vole from my front yard. I poisoned the sucker last evening. And I'll keep doing it, too. |

Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Rapparee Date: 13 Apr 08 - 02:11 PM Hey Bobert! Suppose you untune your geeter and twang it a bit just for that there groundhog? Think that'd knock him over dead, or maybe stun him enough you kin get rid of him? |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Bobert Date: 13 Apr 08 - 08:22 AM Well, Chance, ol' buddy, 10 minutes a day ain't like, ahhhhhhh, playin' again but I'll take it... Won't miss this stuff when it's gone... B~ |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Fortunato Date: 13 Apr 08 - 08:02 AM Glad to hear you're playing again. cheers chance |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Rapparee Date: 12 Apr 08 - 09:15 PM Okay, Bobert, here's whatcha do. Go down to the store and tell 'em you gotta blast some stumps. Just a coupla sticks of dynamite'll do; make sure you get a couple electrical blasting caps too. Put one stick of dynamite and one cap away, maybe in the house, but at least a hunnerd yards away. Now put a point on a wooden dowel and poke a hole from the top of the stick of dynamite about a quarter way down the stick and drop in the cap, the wires gotta stick out the top. Tape the wires in place. Twist some regular old copper wire onto the cap wires and tape it in place. Use a LOT of copper wire, now! Find that ol' 'hog's hole and using a long stick shove that capped stick of boom-boom way down in the hole. Now walk as far away as the copper wire'll let ya. Touch one strand of wire to one pole of a car battery and the other to the other (clamp the wires to jumper cables if yer chicken). BOOM! No more Mr. Ground Hog AND you got the start for a nice fish pond! Use the second stick and cap if you don't get him on the first try. Jist remember what the man said, "The is no problem so large or so complicated that it cannot be solved with the correct amount of high explosives." |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Bobert Date: 12 Apr 08 - 06:29 PM Ya. better bring yer own oak 2X4, Rap, 'cause unless you pay thru the nose all yer gonna find 'round these parts is pine... Hey, Rap... Man, I need you to come down here and help me kill this danged groundhog... He has more lives than a cat... If I walk out back witout a gun there he is... If I have the gun, he ain't nowhere to be found... Okay, 'cept night before last an' I was laying fir him... Yeah I had me a pill and took a couple Iron Cities out to the ferrowing barn that has a window out of it 'bout 75 'er 90 feet from Mr. G-Hog's den which is under my equipement barn... So he comes on out and immediately climbs up on top of some 6X6 blocks that I have styacked and behind them is a nice Warm Mornings porpane heater which I really don't wnat to shoot... But I'm patient and agter about 20 minutes me gets down where I have a shot at him with the .410.... Click... Huh???? Hey, don't ask me... May be bolt wasn't down far enough to engage the firing pin for the lower chamber but Mr. G-Hog heard the click and now was headed back to the hole as I pull the bold up for the .22, recocked and got off a prayer shot (open sights) and missed the sumabich... Maybe I'll get him tonight... Wow, it's about time for him to come out... Better go get set up.... Yeah, Im shooting lefty but that's good... I've always shot lefty??? B~ |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Rapparee Date: 12 Apr 08 - 11:31 AM Yeah, and taking enough of them pills plus Iron City kin fix it so you don't play geeter every agin. In fact, you'll just lay there dressed up in yer Sunday best, a shit-eatin' grin on yer face, until they close the lid on ya and screw it down. Be careful out there, ya hear? Cuz if you ain't, I'm gonna have to come out there and slap some sense into ya with a oak 2x4. |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Bobert Date: 12 Apr 08 - 08:21 AM Well gol danged... Couple Iron City beers and them pills they got me on make fir some more than usaul interestin' Bobert readin'... Man, I should stay the heck away from this thing at night 'cause I come back the next day and don't have a clue what I said... It does say right there on the pill bottle not to operate machinery so I guess that's what they mean...Even pudders is off limits... Also says that the side effects maybe greater if ya' drenk Iron Cities... Like I was tryin' to say is that I should know this next week if there is any tumor activity and if there ain't then they are gonna keep me on these anit-seizuer meds that is supposed to help the neurons get reacquainted and that in most cases it it juts matter of time but in some cases folks don't get fully revovered... All I know is that if I take me a handfull of pills and 6 Iron Cities that I can play geeter fir about 5 -10 minutes at night... Burnin' a little evidence don't hurt non either... B~ |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: John MacKenzie Date: 12 Apr 08 - 04:17 AM I thought this was a music site? f is fortissimo as any fule kno, and oing is a verb which describes the act of backing a doowop song. So he's singing loudly behind Amos the human juke-box of course. Anywho, Bobert meant doing, which is the sound a bell makes when you hit it with something hard, like GiGi's head! OK? G |

Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Bobert Date: 11 Apr 08 - 08:39 PM Awll, amos, ol' bud.... There ain't much in the way to treatment fir it other than piling yer butt up with ab bunch of nati-seizers meds which kinda, somtimes help the nuerons get reacquinted....I bee on them fir a couple weeks... The don't operate machibery has made for some intersting moments... Other than ose interestin' momemts this stuff sucks... I am way tired of having this so if there is anyone out there who would like to have itm feel free to come and get as much as you like... I ain't been away fro playing geeter like this in over 40 years.... Free to good home... lol B;~) |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Amos Date: 11 Apr 08 - 08:23 PM Brachiial plexopathy? I think it is Latin for {"Sore all over" or something. WHat does that fancy handle say about the anture of the beast and its remedies, aside from "could be sompn serious or not"? A |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Bobert Date: 11 Apr 08 - 08:13 PM Well, well, well... Looks as if we have a priliminary diagnosis and it it... ...."Brachial plexopathy".... Great.... A few things can bring this on and opne of them is the existence of a "tumor"... So today I enderwent yer another MRI, this time with dye injected into the ol' hillbilly.... It was s long MRI... Maybe an hour and a half long... Recon I'll know somehtin' next week... If their ain't no tumor than it's gonna be a waitin' game... Could eb a week or a month or 6 months before it subsides... And it may not subside or it may subside partially... But in most cases it subsudes fully meaning that if I am in that category, I'll be leaduing the blues jam at the Getaway and foing... ...a mini concert.... Will keep everyone posted... B:-) |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Little Hawk Date: 03 Apr 08 - 01:20 PM I've had a sore right shoulder for months now, Bobert. Not wretchedly painful like yours, though...just uncomfortable and not as flexible as it ought to be. It's slowly, slowly getting better. A little bit more stretch as time goes by. So I figure that time is probably what will cure your problem. I do some mild stretching and it seems to help. |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Bobert Date: 02 Apr 08 - 06:44 PM Well yeah, Rap, but it don't say that in the piece of paper... Says lotta other scarey stuff but nuthin' about blowing up 'er burstin' into flames... I mean, nuthin'... I read it 3 or 5 time and I ain't gonna burn up from these pills... Plus it says to "take by mouth" right on the label... So that tell me that you ain't 'sposed to stick 'um, ahhhhhhhhhh, you know where... I'm kinda likin' 'um... They are gel caps with powder inside and I was wondering what it would be like to, ahhhhhh, dniff a little bit of the powder thru a rolled up one dollar bill... Nevermind that last thought... B;~) |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Rapparee Date: 02 Apr 08 - 01:31 PM It's under "spontaneous combustion" Bobert. It means that you'll suddenly burst into flame. |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: peregrina Date: 02 Apr 08 - 01:20 PM Very glad to hear it's 'only' smushing--good luck with recovering. |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Bobert Date: 02 Apr 08 - 01:15 PM Hey, ya' all... I read all the possible side effects and "combustion" ain't nowhere in there... One thing I did leave out is that the doc said the3 nerve would heal at its oen rate but that using my arm, even though it hurts, won't change the length of time... I thought that kinda wierd but what the hell??? So I'm doing housework today... You know, pickin' up after the P-Vine... Grrrrrrr.... I feel a womenz thread comin' on... Back to work... B;~) |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: John MacKenzie Date: 02 Apr 08 - 12:48 PM Better add 'combustion' to that list Rap. G |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Rapparee Date: 02 Apr 08 - 12:31 PM Jacqui, with the stuff he's takin' he could set himself on fire and life would be good. |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: jacqui.c Date: 02 Apr 08 - 12:26 PM Good news Bobert - both the playing for 10 minutes AND the promise to get to the Getaway. Life is good. |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Bobert Date: 02 Apr 08 - 10:53 AM Well, guess what... I got in about 10 minutes geetar work last night... Of course that was the meds, several beer and the burbning of a little evidence... Okay, it was just 10 minutes but it's the first playin' I've done in a long time... Sounded good... I think... Heck, to be honest, I don't have a clue what it sounded like... BTW, folks, seein' as I have 'nuff time to get un-messed-up before the Getaway I'm gonna warn ya' all that I'm gonna bring and play my cigar box geetar, with small 10W amp... Yopu7 ain't heard the blues 'til you hear it with a cigar box geetar... Okay, that's 'bout my typin' limit fir now... B~ |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: John MacKenzie Date: 02 Apr 08 - 10:13 AM I've seen him play guitar. G |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Amos Date: 02 Apr 08 - 10:05 AM Now, some folks would say that even if he got it wrong, it won't change the process, because of certain idiosyncratic physiognomic aspects of Bobert's disposition. But I don't hold with that. I've seen him play. A |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: John MacKenzie Date: 02 Apr 08 - 08:38 AM Don't leave it too late before you change your mind Bobert. G |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Bobert Date: 02 Apr 08 - 08:13 AM No, Rap... You have it confused... It asin't no suppositiry... It's a danged pill... (But, Boberdz... Maybe you are 'sposed to be depoistin' in a different place...You better go reread the directions...) I'll get back to ya', Rap... I think I know why it messed me up so much... B;~) |

Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Bobert Date: 01 Apr 08 - 02:33 PM Well, that purdy much exhausts the subject of "smushed"... As for drugs??? Yeah, it's called, ahhhh, "Gabapentin, 300 mg" and I found out why it tells you not to drive or operate machinery... This sh*t is good... Got me all messed up purdy good... As fir the pain??? Ahhhhh, who cares??? Not me... As fir the P-Vine bein' non-violent??? Well, yeah, but that don't mean that she ain't got other means of devilerin' the 55 gallon drum of whup-ass... Hey, My first wife was a 2nd degree black belt but she didn't have nuthin' on the P-Vine... I mean nuthin' at all... But nevermind that stuff... She has just informed me that I have better get my one armed, messed-up, boney butt outside to help her with some gardening... B~ |

Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Rapparee Date: 31 Mar 08 - 10:17 PM Have you considered driving them things in a prone position? And you know the P-Vine ain't gonna shoot ya cuz she's very non-violent. That means she'll slip some rat poison into yer oatmeal instead. |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: SINSULL Date: 31 Mar 08 - 09:40 PM 1/2 a step above smashed. 2-4 months? Did she at least give you some interesting drugs?

Whaddya mean ya don't know what Smushed means? It's a fine medical term for uh, well, smooshed. Squished, squashed...whatever. |
Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Bobert Date: 31 Mar 08 - 09:11 PM Well, it's like Groundhog Day... Yeah, I met with this lady and she is like top notch and she says that she thinks that when I originally had a massauge therapist work on me that this person "smushed" the nerve??? "Smushed"??? Okay, doc, so what does that mean??? Well, it might take awhile... Like, what's exactly "awile"??? Oh, maybe another 2 to 4 months... Oh, just shoot me!!! So, IO was hopin' for more but the good news is that I don't need this lady to cut on me... The bad news is that I'm just gonna hjave to wait it out and the P-Vine will get frustrated drivin' the mower, the tractor and doing stuff that I can't do and one night she'll just slip a punkin' ball into the .410 and then there won't be any more Bobert posts here on Mudcat...

Subject: RE: BS: Bobert Seriously Messed Up.... From: Rapparee Date: 31 Mar 08 - 01:16 PM Giok: Go to Edinburgh Castle (that big thing on top of the hill). Go to the basement area called "the dungeon." Ask one of the nice guides there if you can try out "the rack." (You might even make some money in tips from the visitors!) This will do wonders for you. No, no, don't thank me. Your good health is thanks enough. |
