I’m sorry I missed posting yesterday. If I had been here, I would have told you that the Kickstarter “surveys” are going out this weekend, which will be your opportunity to tell me where to send your reward and to list particulars in your case. It only goes out once! That’s Kickstarter doing, not mine. So, take care filling it out, and in the case of book inscriptions, etc., be sure and tell me exactly what you’d like. Here we go!

Well, dang. Although I knew that was a possibility.
No surgery is “routine” (especially when it’s done on you), but cardiac bypasses have been being done for many years now. My dad had a triple, lived for 11 more years, and did not die of heart-related causes.
Second that, Trucker. It’s much better to treat the condition before having an acute myocardial infarction with the resulting (permanent) damage to the heart muscle.
Mark had not seen a doctor for six years, despite working for a hospital and having insurance and VA benefits. He deserves much credit for facing all his issues and doing something positive about them. That takes more courage than many of us have.
Wish there was something we could do more when our Village orphans need us. Worrying doesn’t seem enough.
I hope Mark can read these good wishes on his phone. Hang in there, guy….
Just got off phone with Mark. They have been doing more tests all night and just came in for more at this hour. They are serious about this.
He is in good spirits however.
More prayers Mark.

Good morning Villagers…..
Thanks domaucon, for the cheers and eating eggs too.
….and Jackie, this too shall pass….
Old Bear….we did not go that route, putting on some kind of rust oxidant, then spray painting it. Can only do a little at at time with the rustoleum, as there is no ventilation. Nothing we can do about those old cages though.
Mark, will be praying for you. Glad you are getting this procedure done. You will feel like a new man when this is done.
Steve, really like your list.
Going in early..
Ya’ll have a blessed day, truly.
GR need to get me a pair
