Good Evening Everyone

Evening Mark

 

[lbgraves]

I picked up my x-rays and report this afternoon at the end of my work day. Man, my knees look horrible on the inside, actually, they don't look that good on the outside either............

Report states:

Right Knee Findings:

There is moderate to severe narrowing of the medial femorotibial joint space. There is also sclerosis involving the medial tibial plateau. The medial tibial plateau appears slighty depressed. This may be projectional. There is no joint effusion.

Left Knee Findings:

The patient is status post partial left knee replacement with prothetic components overlying the lateral femoral condyle and lateral tibial plateau. There is moderate-to-severe narrowing of the medial femorotibial joint space. There is osteophyte formation off the tibial spines and off the medial femoral condyle. There is also patellafemoral joint space narrowing.


Not sure, but I think maybe that's why my knees ache so much..........


What say you Peter???

IDK what that all means either, Andy but I also confer with OUCH!

Silly dog keeps going to the door and begs to go out but when I open it for her she just backs away and looks at me like "what are you? Nuts?" She then goes to one of the other 2 doors and does the same thing, like maybe it is pouring rain out those doors. She is driving me crazy. Where is Mark when I need him to let the dog out? 500 miles away of course.

Maybe she's looking for Mark too?

 

[geffric]

and she who needs not be named....

 

[atakaratemom]

OMG, I live in in So California and I wear black in August. I must be a goth!! And my kids think I'm not cool. What do they know!

You know come to think of it, I'm really naturally pale too. Maybe I'm a vampire! A butt-kickin' black belt mama goth vampire.

A submarine sandwich (or just submarine where context would exclude the sea vessel, or even just sub) is any of various sandwiches made on a long roll (usually at least 12" long by 3 " wide) or baguette (called "French bread" or a "submarine roll" in the U.S.) , so called because of its shape. The contents typically include meat, cheese, lettuce, tomato, and various condiments, sauces or dressings.

The term is believed by some to have originated in a restaurant in Scollay Square in Boston, Massachusetts at the beginning of World War II. The sandwich was created to entice the large numbers of navy servicemen stationed at the Charlestown Navy Yard. The bread was a smaller specially baked baguette intended to be similar to the hull of the submarines it was named after[1].

In the United States, the terms "submarine" and "sub" are widespread[2], but there are also many regional names for the sandwich, especially in the northeast part of the country:

Bomb — New England, usually used for hot sandwiches with melted cheese & other toppings, such as a Steak bomb
Bomber — New Jersey
Cosmo — North Central Pennsylvania in and around Williamsport, PA - a cosmo is an oven toasted sub.
Grinder — New England (some say this refers specifically to an oven-toasted sub) and Riverside, CA
Hero — New York, northern New Jersey and the Eastern United States
Hoagie — Philadelphia and environs, including South Jersey
Poor boy or Po' boy — Gulf Coast, especially around New Orleans
Spuckie — Boston, Massachusetts (now rare)
Torpedo — New Jersey
Wedge — Specific to some northeastern coastal sections of the Bronx, and the Long Island Sound shore towns of Westchester, New York, and Fairfield County, Connecticut, though definitely not universally recognized even in the region. Also in sections of northern New Jersey, adjacent Rockland County, and Putnam County in New York.
Zep (trunc. of German zeppelin or Italian zeppoli) — New Jersey and Norristown, Pennsylvania
Italian — Maine, where "Italian" is used regardless of the filling, which is specified separately, as a "ham Italian", "veggie Italian" or "roast beef Italian". A regular Italian is usually a ham Italian, made up of: ham, cheese, onions, olives, green peppers, pickles, and tomatoes. Italians are made to order at most convenience stores and gas stations. This term is also found in New Jersey.
An Italian sub, Italian combo, or Italian hoagie consists of Italian luncheon meats, typically capicola, prosciutto, and Genoa salami, with provolone, lettuce, tomato, oil, and vinegar. Thinly sliced pepperoni and bologna are sometimes added, and less expensive ham is often substituted for capicola and prosciutto.

A cheesesteak or steak and cheese is grilled sliced steak with melted cheese on a submarine roll. Common local variations include grilled onions, peppers, lettuce, tomato, ketchup or tomato sauce. The cheese is usually American, cheddar, provolone, or Cheez Whiz. Cheesesteaks are strongly associated with the Philadelphia area, while "steak and cheese" is more often heard elsewhere.

the only way to have a cheesesteak is wit wiz and onions mushrooms and sweet peppers at tony lukes after the flyers games. im sorry so behind im trying to ketcup my 11mt old nephew is living with me and last nite he had a allergic reaction to formula (he was allways brest feed) threw up like the exorcist and had hives all over yeah it was a busy nite

I've been reading the Disneyland Boards, trying to get ideas on where to find them. I hope that wearing my "It's My Birthday" button will help, too!

Prizes? What other prizes??

There's really no telling where they will pop up. They wander around all day. I love to just hang out and talk to them. It's a blast hearing all their stories. Anyway, just look for the blue people, they are all in blue. But if you ever see them with vests on, hightail it over there. The vests mean they are about to give away a "dream". They never know where they will be assigned to give one away either. The award time is randomly generated and could be something like the first 10 people to exit Haunted Mansion at 3:17pm. Or whoever is sitting in front of Mr Toad's Wild Ride at 10:36am.

Prizes are fastpasses, lanyards, mouseears....then the big ones, DVC memberships, cruises, a stay in the Mickey penthouse....

Here's a link to the official rules with all the prizes.

Me?? LOL...I don't mind telling. I'll be 49 on March 18th. DH will be 57 in June. Just seems too old to still have a 16 and 13 yr old hanging around the house.
No grandkids yet, thank goodness. DD#1 is 25 and still trying to figure out how to take care of herself. She used to teach at a pre-school, so that made her decide to wait a while.
When the time is right, I will welcome little ones again, though. I'm going to be one of those "spoil 'em and send 'em home" Grandmas!

You made me figure it out and when I am 49 the kids will be 15 & 17.

 

[got2travel]

Oh man.....we all love that movie.

LOVE the costume


I hadn't seen it until about a year ago. But I remember 2 years ago visiting the Mall of America in Minneapolis. There was a huge group waiting to get into Jillians and they all had Vote for Pedro tshirts. I couldn't figure out what it was all about.

Good evening all!
Keeping an eye on the computer and the tv. GA is a rerun so I started watching the new Jeff Foxworthy show on Fox...Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader. OMG...the guy on now reminds me of Woody from Cheers.

Congrats on your ~

Poor Super Kitty. Did she ever return?

Super Kitty did eventually return. DBro and I never did manage to catch her again after that.

RCCL Explorer is awesome!

Thanks for the input! That's were DH and I are leaning now. Must admit that I looooooooove the idea of sailing so close to home. I am not afraid of flying...just the hassle of logistics.

My dad had a bright red stingray convertible when I was growing up. I think that was his mid-life crisis car.
