  1. She bought her own bike today. It's a Cannondale Quick 4 Women's. The color caught her eye. After that it was all mom and her Jedi mind tricks. Anyway that's what she blames for the purchase.

  2. Had an echocardiogram for a mild heart murmur my new Dr found. The technician was cool and was explaining everything to me. She angled the monitor so I could see and she was pointing things out. She said the Dr will provide a follow up but asked what they told me. I told her they said I had a slight murmur and they wanted to do this as a precaution. She said thought so as I don’t see much of a murmur here, blood flow looks good. After we got to talking for a while she says, can I tell you something? Uh sure what? When I called your name I was hoping you would stand up and my heart jumped for joy when you did. Me thinking oh this is awkward... Then she continues... You see most older men are usually obese and well there was that fat guy in the room too. You are my third one today and my arm & shoulder really get tired pushing against a bunch of fat.... And I thought she was coming on to me...?

  3. I shared your story with our echo tech. At first she was mortified thinking your tech was coming on to you. Then she laughed her head off about the obese patients. She could totally relate.

  5. Friday was a fun day with a schoolmates I hadn't seen in years. L-R, my high school's Class of 68 top miler (me), Class of 68 Captain of the Cheerleaders (Diane), and Class of 68 top shot putter (Paul). In the 80's, Paul and I coached the high school track team we were on as students. Lunch at a Greek Restaurant - though we all had crab cakes - and 2 1/2 hours of reminscing and spreading gossip. We all had high school classes together, then all went to UMBC - where we never had classes together, and then all became high school teachers (science, theater and dance, social studies) in the same school system from which we had graduated. Not bad for three kids growing up in the armpit of the county, so we had a lot to talk about from old classmates to UMBC's new Event Center to students and teachers we worked with. Diane created a dance curriculum in the 1970's when none existed in Maryland high schools and it's still the largest in the state of Maryland in the high school in which she taught. She still travels to Broadway 10x/year to mentor dancers she taught who are now on stage there.

  10. That you should spend 2 hours outdoors every week to be healthy. I had this week and next week covered before noon today. Since I can cover 4 weeks every day I think I should be healthy for at least another 50 years.

  23. The ewes this morning. The sweet feed keeps them all together for a picture before they go out to the pasture. With the coyotes and dogs around we bring them in every night. Night pen has 5 ft fence with electric wire above and an electric wire to keep them from reaching through at the bottom and damaging the wool on their necks.

  27. Besides microbial and chemical content, I heard of one other measurement. A guy named Neil, who graduated from UMBC in Chemistry the year before I did, stopped by the UMBC Chemistry Department the next year: his first in medical school. He said he had just completed a research project to determine why some shit floats and some sinks: does it float due to higher fat content or higher gas bubble content? He said the study came to the conclusion it was the gas bubble content. I don't know which medical journal published the findings! Neil's claim to fame at UMBC was that his childhood babysitter had been teenager Cass Elliott, later to become Mama Cass of the Mamas and the Papas.

  43. I like funny commercials, but I have my doubts as to their effectiveness versus an ad that makes life look wonderful if you partake of the product in question. I remember the funny ads, but sometimes I can't remember what the product or brand was that the ad was about.
