Illinois Chapter February BS Thread

Rip another month from the calendar, throw another log on the fire and sit a bit with friends. I got out of the horsepistol on Moanday evening. I had 18 to 24 inches of colon removed. It wasn't cancerous but if left in place it would have been with my age.
With no more ado lets get to posting.

Howdy John!

Its not a procedure that I recommend for anyone to run out and get done for the hell of it. Its comforting knowing that I'll be here longer dishing out BS for some time to come.
The discomfort passed before I was released on Moanday.

I'd imagine they gave you some pretty good pain meds, I needed them when I had my heart surgery for the first couple weeks even though I hated taking them...

Good evening Illinois, Lanny, Jim, Ken, Pat, John, Neil, and Don!

Thank you to everyone for the well wishes and speedy recovery wishes.

Today was a cold sum bltch so I spent it inside except to take Macy on a walk and get my cold **** back home.

I laid in front of the TV most all afternoon and about wore myself out. I'll give it another hour before throwing in the towel.
