Coolest thing ever
Okay, so we watched the news and they had a feature on a local guy who was fed up with trying to get reimbursed for his guitar that was broken by the baggage handlers. The guy witnessed it out the passenger window. Anyway, he decided to write a song about it. Heheh.

Guess what? United Airlines has now paid him for a new guitar after he put this video on Youtube. Go figure.

Way to go, Sons of Maxwell!

Wow


Your result for The House, MD Personality Test...

Dr. James Wilson

50% Eccentricity, 15% Confidence, 85% Kindness

Congratulations, you're Dr. James Wilson! You've got the tough role of being the conscience and best friend to Dr. Greg House, which proves that you must be secretly (or openly) insane. You're always a good person for providing advice, witty remarks, free lunches, lectures, and (wanted or unwanted) psychoanalysis. You are about as confident as the average person, but you have some big issues with yourself, and may have problems living up to the ideals you have in your head. You do really care about other people, though, even if you sometimes express that caring by trying to get into their pants.

This is right because I deal with some insane people and am a total enabler. Um, I don't know about the "getting into their pants" thing. I'm as faithful as they come. My own guilty conscience would kill me. :)

Forehead rub
I rarely ever post something like this but Robbie sent the article to me and I felt strongly about the subject.

Everyone has their opinions but sometimes we seem to have our priorities all screwed up.

Me
Reply to this meme by yelling "Words!" and I will give you five words that remind me of you. Then post them in your LJ and explain what they mean to you. (Please note: If you simply wish to comment on something I've said but don't want to participate in the meme, that is fine. I will only give you five words if you specifically comment with 'Words!')

Squirrel!
And on we go to last Saturday at my step dad's house. He lives in an airport community, basically has a runway in his back yard.

It's the coolest thing. )

We'll start with a great air to air shot taken of Robbie flying the plane. A friend of his took this a few weeks ago. So cool!

23rd-Jun-2009 09:02 am - I've become a Twitterer
oye
Okay, anyone out there who Twitters...or whatever the heck you call it, give me your name so I can find you on there!

My name is....get ready...it's hard to remember...bmax67. :)
So, since I'm not doing much more than sitting around and pulling weeds (I did run some errands this morning), I thought I'd post some pics of my knee and the birds visiting our feeder.

The pics of the birds were taken a few weeks ago, just haven't had a chance to post them.

Me
I'm home.
Actually, I was home by about noon but took a nap and tried to relax most of the day. The local anesthetic has worn off and I'm definitely feeling it now. Drugs will be my best friend for a few days. I'm on something called Norco, a Vicodin/Acetaminophen combo. Seems to be working.

So, I had a bucket handle tear of the medial meniscus and the doctor also discovered that the screw used to hold my ACL graft in place had backed out of my femur. He took it out and saved it for me so now I have a souvenir.

Anyway, I'm surviving. :)

Thanks for all of your well wishes and virtual gifts. You guys are awesome!
