The Doctor Is In

Apr 28 2007

"All right, Cincinnati, it's time for this town to get down! You've got Johnny – Doctor Johnny Fever, and I am burnin' up in here – Whoah! We're all in critical condition, babies, but you can tell me where it hurts, cuz I got the healing prescription here from the big KRP musical medicine cabinet. Now I am talking about your 50,000 watts intensive care unit, babies! So just sit right back now, relax! Open your ears real wide and say, 'Give it to me straight, Doctor, I can take it!' Oh, I almost forgot, fellow babies… BOOGER!!!"

Johnny Fever

No, I'm not gone crazy. And I'm not depressed. But the medication I'm on for my back has made me mellow. I sound like a late night DeeJay. Yesterday, I was on a conference call and attempted to introduce the team in my office with folks on the other end of the phone. I look straight at my colleagues and couldn't remember their names. These drugs are GOOOOOOD. So remember, babies, Johnny's philosophy on life: "When everybody's out to get you, paranoia is just good thinking."

Oh My Freakin’ Back!

Apr 24 2007

Lard sufferin’ Jeeezus!

I posted about my wife damaging her sciatic nerve last June. Now, I think I’ve gone and done it to myself.

I don’t know how the hell I did it though. We are doing some spring cleaning and some minor renovations. First, I decided I was going to the dump with some junk. I needed to pull the trailer out of the back yard, so I did. The ground was soft and the tire pressure was low, so the pulling was a little tough. Then, I couldn’t find the trailer hitch, so I started loading up the trailer anyway. Then, when I found the trailer hitch, I had to lift the trailer onto the hitch. Heavy, but not too bad. I went to the dump, unloaded a few hundred pounds of junk, and came back. Then I decided to unhook the empty trailer. When I lifted it…. creak, pop. Ouch. Oh well, I’ll shake it off by changing the tires on my van from winter to summer rims. Top that off with a little bit of dragging gyproc in from the shed by myself and there you have it… My psychotic nerve decided to go psycho on me.

So… what did I do wrong?

Happy Birthday Tony!

Tony Finn and Donna Williams

Hey man! You got it backwards. You're supposed to be the one serenading the woman, not the other way around!

Choices

Apr 13 2007

I thought this was funny. It's a quote from Woody Allen.Crossroads?

"More than any other time in history, mankind faces a crossroads. One path leads to despair and utter hopelessness. The other, to total extinction. Let us pray we have the wisdom to choose correctly."
