Subject: RE: MOAB - Mother of All BS [annex] From: Donuel Date: 09 Nov 20 - 05:36 PM Is there a preacher, much bemus'd in beer, A maudlin poetess or rhyming peer anywhere? A jerk, forelorned his father's soul to cross, Who pens a stanza, when he should egress? Is there, who, lock'd from ink and paper, scrawls With desp'rate sharpie round his bathroom walls? All fly to Tweet, and in angry strain HE tries to keep them mad or vain. Donald, whose giddy son neglects the laws, Imputes and damn'd my works for cause: Poor Donald sees his frantic life go down, And curseing wit, and poetry, he drowns, In his arrogance, rhetorical sputum and shit His next election will end with a hit. |

Subject: RE: MOAB - Mother of All BS [annex] From: Rapparee Date: 11 Nov 20 - 05:43 PM Mom, I woke up with a numb left arm this morning. I got to ride in an ambulance to the horsespittle and they did scans and all and found I'd had a stroke (not of good luck). I'm going to get my right carotid artery reamed out on the 16th because the surgeon said that it's full of "junk" -- a medical term, so you'll have to look it up. Tomorrow is an echocardiogram and pre-op is Friday the 13th and surgery (that is, the throatcutting) is Monday the 16th. We'd planned to stay home for Thanksgiving anyway this year. |
Subject: RE: MOAB - Mother of All BS [annex] From: Donuel Date: 11 Nov 20 - 06:23 PM Plumbing problems are best done sooner than later. I so hope the numbness is only sensory. People need an embollism like a hole in the head. A carotoid stint? Repair under by pass? Let us know how it goes when convenient. Clogged pipes are better than anurisms but good health is best. Get well as healing allows. Good thoughts are turned up to 11. |

Subject: RE: MOAB - Mother of All BS [annex] From: Rapparee Date: 11 Nov 20 - 08:35 PM Carotid stents are not his treatment of choice. He opens the artery, uses a plunger first and then a Roto-rooter machine and hopes he doesn't bust the pipe. Seriously, he said stents can cause plaque to build up on the surface. I have to believe the surgeon because I'm not up to doing this myself. |
Subject: RE: MOAB - Mother of All BS [annex] From: Stilly River Sage Date: 11 Nov 20 - 10:40 PM Have Pat take along some of her quilting materials and other crafts - does she have any knitting needles or really fine crochet hooks? They might come in handy. Just ask the head surgical assistant to throw those in the autoclave before the surgery so he has them available. |
Subject: RE: MOAB - Mother of All BS [annex] From: Rapparee Date: 12 Nov 20 - 09:38 AM She can't come into the hospital. They tightened the rules a couple weeks ago -- no visitors! Surgery is being done at the Idaho Legion Hovel Surgical Center and Horseface Ike Memorial Delirium Tremens Ward |

Subject: RE: MOAB - Mother of All BS [annex] From: Stilly River Sage Date: 16 Nov 20 - 02:48 PM Hoping all went well. I've always wondered about those early starts. And it seems when you finally get yourself psyched for heading over at 6:30am they call and tell you to be there at 5:45am instead. |
Subject: RE: MOAB - Mother of All BS [annex] From: Donuel Date: 17 Nov 20 - 01:05 PM Sweet exquisite pain. There is such a thing. Like when I laughed surprisingly when they set my broken ankle. But last night wasn't funny. I thought of Tom Hanks in Castaway who was in so much tooth pain that he had to improvise. This morning I had a root canal and I am glad it took only 15 minutes. Was it worth the risk, I'll know in 14 days. Oh sweet relief. |
Subject: RE: MOAB - Mother of All BS [annex] From: Rapparee Date: 17 Nov 20 - 08:56 PM I'm home. Instead of three nights in the resort I spent one. However! The hypoglossal nerve was stretched, and so I have difficulty with some speech patterns, eating, and swallowing. I'm told it will get back to normal in a couple of weeks, but I'll be doing "tongue strengthening" exercises in the meantime. Home health care comes tomorrow afternoon for "admitting." If you want to see a picture of my wound, I'll send you one via email. I can't imagine why you'd want to. |

Subject: RE: MOAB - Mother of All BS [annex] From: Donuel Date: 18 Nov 20 - 09:33 AM Monsters like children of white supremacists or the SS sound dangerous but it all depends on how they were raised and carefully taught. My step dad Nate was 100% Jewish. He was a clerk in the US Army in London but saw action in Germany at the end of the war. By clever paper schuffling and clerk magic fairy dust he managed to adopt me from a Liebensborne orphanage in Dusseldorf at the urging from a rabbi that said it would be a mitzvah and atonement for killing nazis. While most GI's were bringing home booty, my step dad brought me to America to meet my step mom in the midwest. My biological parents were probably strangers to each other but its unknown with no German documents. As a pig in a poke I was probably a disappointment since I was not a scholar or avid reader early on due to dyslexia I discovered decades later. I did very poorly with languages. Starting with Hebrew study to be bar mitvahed I was given the choice of religious studies or not. I chose not, but more or less I identified with the culture. Later on I heard that Ghandi advised a Hindu to adopt a Muslim man's son after the tragic killing of the father and bring up the boy as a Muslim to attone. There were a couple of moral parallels with my adoption but sort of opposite to my history. One thing is for sure - I'm walking proof that there was no German master race unless it was Eienstien . One possible irony was that my first girl friend, Priscilla Stephanie von Dieseldorf, from Guatamala was the child of a German couple who escaped Germany in the 40's and joined the grandfather who was an archeologist unearthing the Mayan civilization. What does all this mean? Mostly that Ancestry.com would be a waste of my time, nurture trumps nature and that kids of the KKK turn out krazy if raised by dad. :^/ |
