Crush Liberalism

Liberalism: Why think when you can “feel”?

Back surgery

Looks like yours truly may need some back surgery. In the noble quest of getting in shape, I appear to have herniated four discs in my back. Actually, it may have had nothing to do with working out on the Bowflex, but who knows? Anyway, two are minimal, one is moderate, and one is severely herniated. I’ve been having tingling in my left leg since November, but only recently has it become unbearable.

So my writing may become a little more limited henceforth. Only time will tell.

Hey, it just hit me! Damned shame that I’m not in Cuba, where I could get free back surgery! Granted, I’d have to suffer for another several months while on a waiting list, but at least my drugs to kill the pain in the interim would be free, right? On second thought, I’ll pay my $50 co-pay and be operated on much sooner by a much more competent doctor here in the good ol’ US of A.

  1. My dear FRIEND,

    Dude, friend, brother… I know you may have had more of a chance to go to NWA-TNA Wrestling in Orlando, (or their appearance in Jacksonville, your home town…during the Super Bowl), I never thought that you would have to get involved in that stuff, and mess up your back.

    You didn’t have to be like my cousin, (Mick Foley), (we have the same name, but don’t have a true familial connection), taking mad bumps off of the Liberal turnbuckles and ring approns. You could have tagged us in. Granted, we couldn’t have piled driveng them as you have, but, perhaps we could have saved your back.

    Jesus Christ, (pronounced, Hey soos kristo), I just saw “Ready to Rumble” w/ David Arquette…(And Rose McGowan..Jesus, Mary, and Joseph is she freakin’ fine!!!!), and I thought of all of us watching the old stuff and taking fake bumps. I hope some of our geek bumps didn’t cause your affliction. No, I’m sure it didn’t. It was your constant casting for fish, and your wife bucking you like there was no tomorrow.

    O.K., sorry about the personal stuff. Anyway, let Steve, (he posts under “Anonymous”, because he doesn’t want to sign up for Blogger.), and I know how you’re doing. We’ll do the personal e-mail soon. Say,, “Hello”, to the wife, “Little Stone Cold”, and “Our favorite Porn Star named girl”. I know those names aren’t because of the people I mentioned, but you and I will know who I’m talking about.

  2. Dude…that was just wrong!

    Thanks for the well wishes! I see the neurologist this Friday. Wow…I just had a flashback to PT Willis calling a Seminole game: “I see ya, Neurosurgeon!”

  3. Dude,

    It sucks to be laid up, (Its great to be laid though)
    Needless to say, you and your family have always been in my and my family’s prayers and will always be. You get better soon, so When Kris, my boy and my self head up to see you, we can go and drink more beer.

    Hang in there,and Go Noles

    Steve

  4. Thanks, man! I am seeing the neurologist on Friday for the consultation, and then I’ll know what and when things will happen. Possibly injections, possibly surgery, possibly both…don’t know. But I will on Friday.
