Yeah, Al Franken has a real reputation of being fair and balanced. I love it when the left has someone like him for a mouth piece. Speak louder Al you help the right everytime you do.

Poke..poke.. Val :-D

Just kiddin' anyway! That guy drives me nuts...he's worse than Micheal Moore!
Although I am left leaning, it hurts to have such blatantly idiotic and annoying mouthpieces!

Pat Robertson only gets bad when he's off his medication...  OK, well, maybe he is bad all the time.  I talk to God on a fairly regular basis, but I don't have the hotline number like Pat does...  :wink:

If you did, you could leg press a ton like Pat says he did. :lol:

I had knee surgery Monday, so right now I feel like a one-legged man in an a$$-kicking contest...

Leg press a ton...  Uh huh.  Right...

Hey Doc, Walk on your hands like those dudes in the circus do. It will give you a new perspective. If you get mad just start throwing crap around until your wife decides she's had enough and kicks you in the injured knee.  Hahaha

Just kidding. I hope you get well soon. I am sure your hopped up on hydrocodone or something better. Be careful with that stuff. Obey your doctor, Doc.

Ironically, no.  My doctor asked me if I wanted some Vicodin, and I said no; none of that stuff works for me.  Darvoset, Percoset,  Vicodin- they all have no effect on pain.  I stick with 800mg of Ibuprofen and leave it at that.  My wife thinks I'm some kind of "tough guy," but the knee's been screwed up for 30 years, and now that it's fixed, I just have a different pain than I did before.  Arthroscopic is the way to go, though.  Three minor incisions, minimal swelling, doesn't hurt too much...

whiskey and vicodin causes user-induced comas that is gur-ron-teed to knock out bejesus out of any pain.... :-D

My knee has been a little flakey lately. I hope I don't have to have surgery anytime soon. Right now they just crack real load when I bend them all the way.

Mine was noisy as hell, but I went in for a cyst on the top of the tibia, between the bone and the knee- hurt like hell after an hour of walking behind the lawn mower...  The doc was looking at the MRI films and doing the long, low whistle routine, which didn't make me feel any better at all.  Then he explained that an hour in surgery would fix everything good as new, and I'd be back to work the next day, no rehab, no physical therapy.  They removed the cyst, then scoped the knee to repair bone, cartilidge and tendon damage caused by 30 years of basketball, soccer, roofing, and general mayhem...  I'll let you know how it feels in a week or so, but go have yours checked out by a good ortho doc, and see what they say.

That's what happens to Air Forec and Navy knees when they are not to to use and exercised! :-D
They get brittled and stiff!

Hahaha. I guess that's why your head has a clicking sound coming from between the ears. Hahaha. :-D

I wasn't lucky enough to get a Division Officer that was lazy. I had a CWO4 that made us PT and it sucked. Everyone else would laugh at us because we were made to PT in the mornings. By the way, as you guessed my Div.Officer was a Marine. He thought we were marines or something? :? Damn it !! I am a Sailor. I'm not supposed to run around and do 8 count bodybuilders. I guess the Navy thought since we had shore duty that we needed something to remind us that we were still in the military.

I did my PT every day with my boss in Germany- on the raquetball court!  The short, overweight master sergeant would stand there in the middle of the court, not even move, while he ran me ragged chasing balls he'd banged into the corners...  I'd come away bruised, bleeding, and sweating like a Happy Valley garbage collector, while he was dry as a desert and breathing normally...  'Course, he was my boss, so I had to let him win! :wink:

Yeah, I just left a joint command (MALS-24 in HI) and our SGTMAJ and CMC used to bang heads all the time. Whenever we would go on humps the sailors would too. And our PT runs where brutal, even as a Marine! My SGTMAJ thing was that you're at a Marine Command so when in Rome...Plus he was a Force Recon Marine working with a bunch of air wing pogues! :-D We diffently had the most in-shape squids! :mrgreen:

Now the Chair force....... :oops:
