The other maintenance guy "fixed" a water leak and it wound up leaking worse and I guess he was just like "oh well" and left it like that. All the brand new tile in the hallway has water underneath it and it's coming up now. Also he did a super shitty job of painting and didn't clean pretty much anything. I'm not sure what we are going to do, the new tenant was supposed to move in yesterday.

He's been fucking up since day one and my manager has been pissed with him for at least two months, I wouldn't be surprised if he got canned over this.

Just got out of hospital, had either my 3rd or 30th prostate biopsy, depending on how you count them.

My urologist (who is brilliant, btw. has numerous impressive newspaper articles about his early research work framed in his office) told me that Arnold Palmer's prostate cancer wasn't found until he had 72 biopsies.

I thought that meant 72 separate procedures but the Dr. said 72 meant each needle, 12 per procedure.

If it had been 72 x 12, I don't think any tissue would be left for core samples.

Either way, it's soooo good to be home.

I hate this shit. Can't drive for 24 hrs., can't ride on tractor for at least 2 days.

There's work to be done. I'm a horrible patient, I want to do shit. It's summer ffs.

Taking dog to vet tomorrow, she's having trouble walking, heavily favors right rear leg but has no tender spots even on her slightly swelled joint.

She will get better, I just know it.
If your doc took your prostate biopsy through your hand, he may be a quack. I believe it was the 72 biopsies that caused Palmer's cancer ;) Glad you're home...

I hear ya bro.

I hate this shit and wound up in the hospital for 4 days with sepsis after a biopsy a few years ago.

AND, my Dr. tells you up front that 1 in 10,000 dies just from the biopsy.

I'll tell you what clinched my decision though. I heard him tell another patient (through the thin walls while I was waiting in an exam room), "I'm very, very sorry but your cancer has spread to your spine."

Chilling.

On a lighter note; my neighbor has decided to remove the picture window on the front of his house. We're supposed to be pushing 98 for the next couple days. He is in the process of putting up cardboard over the gaping hole. I figure cardboard is about a .05 R factor. That couple is always entertaining to watch. They rented a big two person auger to put in some big maple trees a few years ago, the wife about launched into the side of the house. Those have since been cut down because they had solar installed. He is getting better putting their trailer in the back yard at least. It was a long production when they first got it. Now they use walky talkies for her to direct him, no more yelling and pointing in random directions for 15 minutes.

Hub came from towing C-141's he can back anything, anywhere, extraordinarily efficiently. It was the tradition toward the end of the Sheriff's academy the wives would be invited down to watch the husband's drive the EVOC course. Part of the course was driving in reverse. Being late, surgery ran over, I walked up to see this car doing 60 in reverse.

I immediately hollered, "Who is the idiot driving that car?" Everyone just turned and looked at me. Apparently it was my idiot.

I absolutely love watching people like that, that is high entertainment.

People that can’t back trailers are great for a laugh.
Watching the blokes reverse road trains is a work of artB92A82DA-48B9-42DD-93A2-C10EC866A264.jpeg
