Diane, can you cook a few meals for that poor model. She looks like she skipped a few too many. I think she thought the piano bench was a fashion statement due to low blood sugar.

I think I see my ex wife in there. Her head isn't facing us, but I can be pretty sure I know which one is her. (Was I supposed to say that?)

What a coincidence! My mother in law bears a remarkable resemblance to the exact same horse and a brother in law runs a close second. (I really need to get another family!)

I'm really surprised that the big guy didn't just knock 'em all down after all that slapping. Everyone's so darned squishy and PC these days.

I guess I should pass on the family swap. Better the devil ya know than the one ya don't!

Jerry, you were hearing the distinct sound of one hand clapping. (I'm running IP numbers to see who it was. 'So far, no luck.)

'Hope all goes well.

Hey, Jerry. Why don't you tell your doctor that you really would like to try doing the operation yourself. Tell him that you don't have any plans to become a real professional doctor with a degree and education and all that, but a neighbor has given you a scalpel and some kitchen sponges, and if he (the dr.) would just explain the procedure via internet postings, you are sure that you could pull it off 'cause you are so good at repairing pianos and motor boats!

You could be a DIY surgeon! ha

She's probably joking about the knife, but if she asks you to dress like this during deer season, there just might be a problem.

Wow! Jerry! That's not good! But if you have to have your gallbladder taken out, consider that 5 lbs you won't have to loose otherwise. And. . . about this next picture! I'm saying NOTHING! I got in trouble in another thread for saying people shouldn't be FAT! . . . But I'm not saying a WORD!...this time! grin

At first I laughed at the fat lifeguard and the fact that Diane repeated her fat-joke/insult while insisting that she wasn't going to do that again, ... then I started thinking. (always a dangerous activity if, as in my case, society exhibits a habit of questioning your sanity)

I was a lifeguard in my late teens and early twenties. All she would have to do if someone got in trouble would be to jump in. The resulting wave would wash the distressed swimmer up on the deck out of harms way, then she could use that little torpedo thingy attached to her right arm to swim back to the nearest reinforced ladder. There! 'Guess I showed those sanity questioners huh? Ha ha. 'Question my sanity will ya?:D

Surgeons consent form:

I Gerald Groot, being of sound mind, agree that my surgeon may examine my Gall Bladder, and if found to be in good condition, toss it out anyway, so it brings discomfort to no one else.

Signed

Jerry


Enjoy that Morphine pump, Jer!
