Well, once he gets his lines memorized, he should be ready to start
posting on roff.

And we can assume you've already passed down the family heirloom "Vote
Democrat" buttons...

Um, wouldn't be easier just to bring Ken in for the role? Well, no,
that wouldn't be fair to Anthony...maybe Ken can be an understudy or
Anthony can go study up - Ken can be sort of like an even more
curmudgeonly Lee Strasberg or something...

OTOH, he might come back having caught something horrible...like a taste
for Bud...

Is that child *STILL* in Nawth Cackalacky ? That is *such* a
shame and nigh on child abuse. Nice young lad like that should
be brought up somewhere civilized. Please tell me that you're
gonna send him north for college at any rate.

At the risk of using this on the originator, hilarious.

So that's more than 5 million and one. :-)

Left eye in three weeks, three weeks for that to heal,
should be just enough time for me and Kipper to hit
Minnesota winter season before it closes on March 31.

So far so good, and thanks for all the good thoughts.

Been there done that. Amazing what they can do. It's easily less of
a pain than a root canal or even a filling. The best you can do is
parley it into some extra TLC and sympathy. No one but you needs to
know that it doesn't hurt that much. Look up pirate supplies on the
web and ask SOs opinion on eye patch colors.
Check out the picture on the sclaral buckle. I don't know how the
guy did it. He offered to show me the movie but I declined. If ever
there was a guy who could tie size 36 flies it was the doctor who did
this to me.

Yeah, pretty much a piece of cake, just like you and Louie said.
SWMBO poked me in the eye with my metal eyepatch last night and
*that* hurt like hell, but as for the procedure itself the most
painful thing was the unsuccessful attempt to insert an IV on my
hand. She finally got one in but the site of that first attempt
is ugly.

Went to LensCrafters this morning and had the right lens of my
glasses replaced with a blank. Weird ****. It looks like somebody
keeps moving the ****in' floor on me. Just about the time I get
used to it it'll be time to get the left one done.

Glad all went well on eye #1, hope it goes the same on the next.

Getting poked in the eye with a metal eye patch sounds painful without the
surgery!
