OK I guess

The cot was killing his back, the painkillers make him tired without really killing the pain, there is no end in sight, woe is me, yadda yadda yadda. It was a bit bad. So Barb came in and went the standard helpless mother route, not being able to help her baby, while I shot down every suggestion she made since I had just made them all and Ben shot them down. We sent her away and made fun of her and Sarah. Always a good team sport for me and Ben. That cheered him up a bit. I'll be sleeping in his room tonight on the air mattress since he is unable to get up by himself out of bed. I'll work from home a another day or so if I have to.

Post #122,035 by broomberg 10/20/03 2:10:40 PM Reply	Movies? I loved "Kill Bill" as reviewed. I rented Reservoir Dogs, Tears in the Sun, and Hollywood Homicide. Watched them all with Ben. I loved Dogs, Tears was OK, Hollywood had it's moments. The only real winner was Dogs. Do? I dunno. Got a pound of fities you can "loan" me? Ben's asleep on the cot right now. No percocet since 4AM. Maybe the worse has passed.

Told he had incurable cancer (or WTF was the disease du jour) - he went to a hotel equipped with boxes of Mack Sennett, Charlie C et alia. Laughed for x-days. His 'cancer' went into 'remission' (or whatever was the then-current, "shit, we don't know Why, but we can't say that!! cha cha cha") Yes, twas a Big Story a couple decades back ... At worst - it Will just / at least take his mind off [] (And you can improvise - all the Monty P movies and stuff you can get from PBS' video service, from the days when there was* Murican humour, too.) Just a thought, Ashton PS -- NO "Action" flics - bad juju even if you are reasonably 'healthy'; utterly useless for (what I understand to be) the Aim.

Stir of Echoes was okay, but didn't really punch my ticket too much. In that final hour, when each breath is a struggle to take, and you are looking back over your life's accomplishments, which memories would you treasure? The empires you built, or the joy you spread to others? Therin lies the true measure of a man.
