Thumbs up Thoughts, prayers & good wishes to our Moderator

Our Moderator & My friend, JO "John" Wilker will be going in for a "common" medical procedure this friday I believe.

I have been there & done that. Medical procedures are only common when they do them on somebody else, or so it was in my case. . . . Never the less I made it out the other side & then all my friends & acquaintences filled my life & hospital room with their good will & good wishes. With me it was a life critical deal and I had no expectation or time ahead of time. Except maybe a few hours. . . . .

Well I want to equip our moderator, my friend & Buddy John with the support, good wishes, good thoughts & prayers we can give him going in. I want to let him know he matters to us and we care about him, his welfare and his family.

John Buddy, we're with ya! Y'all come back soon & keep us straight, will ya?

John:

Take good care of yourself, and come back quickly. We need you here to entertain us with what you did to the nurses

Get well soon John. And give the doctors and nurses a heads up so they don't freak out when you bleed Ford Blue.

Best wishes,

Best of luck and prayers to you, John. I went through one last year, and I'm now in good shape.

Make sure they put a filter in your fuel system.
Make sure it is not plastic, but the metal type. Perhaps swelling in the lines can be alleviated by replacing portions of the line.
I recommend a filter change every 5,000 miles, er, hours.
Be sure to follow your mechanic's - um doctor's - orders, to fully restore power!
