February 16th i celebrated my one year anniversary.
Anniversary of what? My open heart quadruple bypass surgery.
Doesn't seem possible that a year has gone by already.
All the outpouring of love by the people here really helped me through a very tough time.
Even today, I have pain from where they chopped me open. Not horrible pain, just kind of a reminder of what happened.
Again, I thank all of you that were there for me, and for the Wii that you got for me!
I'm STILL enjoying that ALOT! :thumbright:

February 16th, eh? I guess Cupid's arrow really dug deep that time. Some Valentines Day gift!

We're just happy you're still with us, old buddy.

You know what? At the time, I didn't even REALIZE that it happened during Valentine's day. I didn't realize it till THIS Valentine's day.
My wife was sure I was gonna die. Her Dad died February 18th 1994, and my brother 6 days after on the 24th. So she figured of all the months for that to happen to me, It was gonna be my "check out" day.
But i FOOLED her! I'm still here! LOL!

Alan's open-heart surgery was performed on the 16th, but his heart attack no doubt started a day or two prior, as physicians try to exhaust all other possible treatment options before going to the extreme of something as dangerous as open-heart surgery.

Yup......i went into the hospital on the 13th (Friday the 13th, of all days) and had the heart catherization done. I did NOT expect to be staying in the hospital. I figured they might find maybe one small blockage, put a stent in, and i'd be home the next day.
Boy....was I wrong! 6 blockages. They wouldn't let me go home, and they couldn't operate. I had too much blood thinner in me, and would have bled to death. So they put me on nitroglycerin, and bed rest till Monday the 16th, when they opened me up.
So that's how I missed Valentine's day. I also was supposed to go to the auto show that Sunday, to see Adam West (Batman) the 1966 Batmobile, and George Barris, the guy who made the Batmobile. I was SOOOO bummed. I had been looking forward to that for months. I tried to talk the doc into letting me out, but he said I was in "VERY critical condition" and wouldn't let me out.
So it was a bad weekend for me all the way around. But hey, I'm still here. (Some might see that as a positive.......a few.....at least)

Way to go Cheesey. You fooled everybody including the nurses at Columbia Hospital. It's amazing what they can do today in medicine and repairing the human body. I'm living proof also. I'm not sure about your body though. I heard through the Columbia Hospital grapevine (Juan the janitor on the ICU floor) that when they went in all they found were old joke books, some Far Side cartoons, and a Karaoke machine primed and ready to go.
Anyone for a Weenie Roast?

Thanks to TheViking88 for the sig!!
Fan Shout
Zero2Cool (53m) : New site so much better. Might make switch and deal with it.
dfosterf (1h) : Mecole Hardman to our practice squad
dfosterf (1h) : Nick Nieman from Texans our 5th linebacker. Special teams signing
TheKanataThrilla (2h) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3
wpr (2h) : TKT people lose their minds over QB3. Point is almost none of them are ready that's why they are on the PS and other teams don't take them.
TheKanataThrilla (3h) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.
TheKanataThrilla (3h) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him
dfosterf (3h) : I bet a lot of us will follow the Taylor Elgersma journey with interest. Personally, got a Kurt Warner vibe goin' on. I like him
TheKanataThrilla (3h) : Not sure if either will be claimed though.
TheKanataThrilla (3h) : Tune or Hooker would make sense
dfosterf (3h) : Clayton Tune cut by the Cards? Don't know if that's the guy, we shall see
TheKanataThrilla (3h) : Per Bill Huber, the Packers will not be bringing back Taylor Elgersma or Sean Clifford on the practice squad, so a new third quarterback
Mucky Tundra (4h) : Schefter must have deleted his tweet
dfosterf (5h) : Hopefully Jerry reaches under the seat cushions and ashtrays of his jet and scrapes up the 45 million apr and spares us further nonsense
dfosterf (6h) : Have to admit the PO'd Cowboy fan videos would be fun to watch. Problem with draft picks is half their fanbase barely knows what that is
beast (6h) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah
dfosterf (6h) : If Jerry traded Micah to GB, here in northern Va. they would have to quick build yet another data center to handle the internet hate traffic
Zero2Cool (6h) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced
Zero2Cool (6h) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work
dfosterf (6h) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n
packerfanoutwest (8h) : The Packers, meanwhile, are the youngest team in the league for the third consecutive year.
dfosterf (10h) : That it was darkest before the dawn in Bengals and Commanders before they got deals done
Zero2Cool (10h) : what is Schefter saying?
dfosterf (10h) : He was getting Dorito infusion therapy
dfosterf (10h) : He's outta shape. Why, just the other day I saw him splayed out on the trainers table
Mucky Tundra (17h) : Parsons has followed Rasheed Walker on Twitter. Quite the choice
Mucky Tundra (17h) : Kuhn is a former player who works for the team, if somethings going down, he would be close to it
Mucky Tundra (17h) : @kuhnj30 Micah Freaking Parsons
Mucky Tundra (17h) : A LOT of buzz on the Bird App regarding Parsons; even Schefter is saying it's serious
dfosterf (22h) : *Orzech*
dfosterf (22h) : Orzich long snapper 3 yr extension
Zero2Cool (23h) : Packers signed someone for three year deal
Zero2Cool (23h) : lol i know it's insane ... sign up for the waiver wire then you'll know
wpr (23h) : YES!!!!!!
Mucky Tundra (26-Aug) : WE WANT THE LIST! WE WANT THE LIST!
Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : @JJLahey · 2m Holy crap, Packers, where the heck is the list?
Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : haha folks on Tweeter every year this time ... 'where is list Packers!!" hahaha
wpr (26-Aug) : He played pretty good.
Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : NAZIR STACKHOUSE HAS MADE THE 53
Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : NOOOOO KALEN IS GONE
Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : Kalen King and Kamal Hadden making it. me thinks
schroeder84 (26-Aug) : @dfosterf I suspect Elgersma WILL be hard to hide. Raw, but talented
Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : pp.com is broken, halt testing, gotta go do work things for a bit
hardrocker950 (26-Aug) : Mecole Hardman was released, to the surprise of few
Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : PP.com updated. Reset Password works, and now User Profile pages are a thing
Zero2Cool (25-Aug) : Soft hope plan is having fantasy football weekly on-site that i build. cannot do that with this setup.
Zero2Cool (25-Aug) : It's older technology, resource hog, cannot be upgraded/changed. That's to start.
packerfanoutwest (25-Aug) : Ok, but what is wrong with this site?
Zero2Cool (25-Aug) : check out packerpeople.com
Mucky Tundra (25-Aug) : Oh crap I missed that! I thought it was a 2026 pick
