Speaking of Bob - I read a month or so ago, that, in conjunction with AARP about 50 k members will be receiving a free copy of his latest album along with their magazine. I'm not sure if that time has passed; if so, I didn't get one.

Are any of you Merkins members of AARP? Maybe you got one?

Thanks and have a great Sunday, my friends.

Will do, Brother dino and thanks!

Presently we're titrating dosages, being careful to monitor the blood pressure. We had one close call during the night when she started swooning (and it wasn't because I'm so good looking, hahaha) and I got there just in time to ease her down to the carpet.

That kind of thing happens when after sitting for a very long time, you stand up too fast; but this was caused by the meds being too strong. Anyway, all is well.

===============

Now about that "Tonsil Hockey": I'm going to  ass-u-me that's French Kissing or an open-mouth type thing? At about 14 years of age, all I knew was what we talked about in the Boy's Bathroom, but I thought I had the technique down.

Fast-Forward to age 15. Location: our broken-down little theater; Balls: Blue.

What I learned that night was that my technique needed some work. Apparently what I should have done was make sure both mouths were open a little after the initial "liplock' as you call it: she opens her mouth, you open yours and then the tongues touch each other, both lips slide around on each other, the tongues slip in and out, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc . ----------------- That's what one is supposed to do. I got the lip lock and then I sucked in real hard. Estimated negative pressure was about 80 mm Hg. Pain from slap which followed, on a scale of 1-10: about 8. Laughter volume measured in decibels: 6.0dB.

I'm sorry for the length (of this post).

Gotta go see Dondra.

Good night and have a good and stress-free work week, dear friends!

Hi Phill !

When I returned to post here, I think I mentioned there may be times when y'all would have to be patient with me should I not "get" or don't understand something, so this is one of those times. I'm not being flippant nor deliberately obstinate. Also I am not being critical of your content. Being that we're buds, no way would I hurt your feelings deliberately.

So that's the "disclaimer".

Okay, here's my problem:  Why is your audience member in trouble? He bought flowers, so she should be happy and all should be well, in my opinion?

That was the question!

And finally, here's my excuse for not understanding: Sleep Deprivation. I've been sleeping with one ear and one eye "open", in case Dondra were to fall on her way to her room of baths.

So can ya help a brother out?:)

Thanks, Phill and I hope you and yours are having a great weekend.

Your fellow Musical friend

Bill

Agreed 100%!!!!

Thanks, everyone. After some intravenous fluids, her B/P came down to 170/85. Still too high, but managable. She sent me home and they plan on keeping her for an aggressive cardiac workup. We only live about 5 minutes away from the hospital. Thank you all for the get well wishes. I have passed them along and she thanks you very much. She's the subject of my latest blog entry which will show what a wonderful lady my wife is.

Thanks again!

Bill and Dondra

Hey dino!

Thanks, my friend!  You always seem to be around to care when someone (me, for instance) has a problem!

God's blessings on you, my friend!

Bill

PS: I also have a hot wax bath when the pain gets too bad. I dip my hand in, leave it long enough to form a "glove" and pretend I am Michael Rennie in the film The Day The Earth Stood Still. "Klaatu Barada Nikto, Y'all!

Good night and peace. Please.

Bill

I keep waiting on you "long thumb" guys to paint eyes and a mouth on them and play with them like that just to kid me!

Right now, badeye, I'm just thrilled that I can go to B7! I've been ignoring a lot of tunes on Chordie because I dreaded having to play that first version with all the fingers crowded together.

Now, when one of guitar-playing friends (of which there is only one - he's  left handed and doesn't reverse his strings, so he's impossible to follow) hollers "B7!!", I'm there Dude! Thanks to Joe and Nela!
