Looks like I've missed the last 400 pages or so. Anyone care to give the cliff notes?

Just skimming the last few pages, Jacob may have a job, Pete had a scare (listen to the Doc's Pete, I know some of them seem kind of young, but they know more about this than you do. That goes for Scott too), Lisa mentioned something the other day about soon to be in-laws, Danny's still playing in the sand box, what else have I missed?

Haha, you know us Chris. Nothing too important going on for most of us.

Jim is having fun with the ex. Some people have gotten new jobs, Cris still has a headache after 6 months, Mark (azbluewolf) is falling apart before our eyes. Did I miss anything guys/gals?

I thought this might be like one of those soap operas my wife watches. If I see it once a year, I'm not completely lost.

I had no idea Cris didn't get her headaches figured out yet. I thought the docs would have had that figured out by now (unless she's just using us to practice that line for her husband )

I also never knew Mark was in one piece to begin with. Always kind of figured someone would have harassed him about taking pictures of those joggers he was so fond of in the warmer months.

I just did not feel like tearing into it this last weekend. Had just enough other things going on that I did not want to start that and then need to walk away.

If we could just convince Cris to see a different specialist she may get different results.

I forgot about the jogger picture taking. MARK! Your sluffing off on the pictures buddy!

I like chrome rims too, I just don't like the upkeep. Chrome needs polished constantly and it rusts easily. Call me lazy, I don't want to be constantly rubbing down my wheels.

Take care of yourself Pete. Your heart is pretty important...try not to stress out, relax...You've heard it all before I realize..I can't help myself I have to tell you again.

I've been pretty strong and wasn't too down these past few days but today it got to me.
I'm sorry you lost your friend Scott...but I'm glad you were able to get the money together for the funeral.

Jim should ask the judge to have a psych eval. done on his ex so that way he can PROVE she is crazy and it will be a non-issue.

Thanks, Pat, Chris, Lisa, and others. I have NO problem listening to a doctor when it comes to my heart. I mean, I'm still amazxaed that they even FOUND that tiny little thing.. much less could even tell if it was working with a misfire!

Seriously, though, I took a lot of time cruising through our incurance comapny files and looking at a wholoe lot of doctor "ratings" and "recommendations". It's pretty sad when you can see that the insurance copany ratings are more associated with "costs comparisons" and "too many unnecessary visits & procedures", etc. I want MY doc to pull out all the stops and get 'er done!

Scott, I know today was rough, man, and I'm really sorry you're going through this, as well as Donnie's family, too. It's really hard to see a family hurting over that kind of loss. If anything ever motivates me to be careful and take care of myself, it's knowing that these kinds of things take place, and I want to be able to say I've done all I can to keep my kids from having to go through it.

I pulled a bonehead move yesterday. I was moving my motorcycle out of the way in the garage. I was standing on the "right" side of the bike. Well, the second time I moved it I did not hear the side stand flip up and when I let it go it just kept going. Into the workbench. Bye bye left side mirror. Dang was I mad at myself!

I did not throw anything so I felt that was a good sign of finally growing up a little. That was a nice little $80 error in judgement that I do not have.

I actually mentioned that to my lawyer and she said that it would only prolong the whole ordeal. I have a feeling that she is going to try and pizz her off in court so that the true colors come out.
