I just re-joined FR and I would like to post to my local NC state board but I am not able to. How do I get the ability to do that?
I read this on OFST recently, so you can skip to the punch if you remember it.
A union worker was on vacation in Reno and decided to visit an establishment that is illegal elsewhere. However, being a good union man he wanted to make sure he was - er - served by a fine worker-oriented establishment. Upon entering the first such he asked the madam if it was a union shop. She averred that it was not. He asked what the house cut was and she told him it was 80%. Finding this quite unsatisfactory he went elsewhere.
Unfortunately, each establishment he visited told a similar story. However, he kept looking and was finally rewarded by a madam who told him proudly that she did run a union shop. When asked, she told him the house cut was 20%. Finding this to his liking he said, “That’s all fine. Just fine. I’d like to spend some time with that young blonde lady at the bar.”
“An excellent choice,” she informed him. “Darla is a wonderful companion. But,” she indicated the septegenarian on the couch, “Edna has seniority.”
How I feel on Thursday after a rough Wednesday night.
Unnggh.
Our little SuperWalmart has a Burger King in it, but it doesn’t open until 0730. Just in time for shift change, I think.
” Whatever you do, do NOT think about the secret mission. Think about roasted democrats.”
No mustard, please..
This could work!
” Our little SuperWalmart has a Burger King in it, “
Much better!
It’s hard to walk past it when the burgers smell so good! LOL!
Charred tops fried all day long.
I like their fish sammich too.
I’m scheduled for a second epidural in April, and will, no doubt have to have surgery to prevent paralysis from the neck down.
They gave me another prescription for pain pills but I had to sign a waiver that said they were the only doctor’s office I could get a prescription for pain pills from. That’s OK with me...
Hopefully, by the time I come to see you, the worst of the danger to my spinal cord will be over. I hope.
I haven’t tried the fish sammich, but it’s gotta be better than batter-dipped-in-grease.
Good morning. Well, here it’s about to be naptime, but you know what I mean.
That sounds very unpleasant. I hope you’re feeling much better soon!
Prayers up.
I’m trying to get this taken care of before my visit. Flying is kinda scary right now.
Thanks!
Do you think we need to reschedule the visit? There’s always fall.
I don’t know that rescheduling will be the answer at this point. Surgery is booked four months out, and I can’t see my GP until May 20, to get a pre-surgical release with all it’s accompanying bloodwork and x-rays.
The second epidural is scheduled for April 13, and the follow up is April 27, and not much can be done between now and then. It’s pretty tight from that to the departure date, but I need to check on the trip protection I got to see what the penalties are for delaying the trip.
The doctor is concerned that I might do something to pinch my spinal cord before the hole can be enlarged, so all I can do is try and stay limber.
She wants me to walk (of course) and to do stretching exercises with my arms and shoulders to relax the muscles and lessen the chance of injury.
Now all I need to do is get the battery replaced in the pedometer, and set my goals for at least a mile every other day. Walmart early morning will be nice and cool for walking!
You’re not flying on a German airline are you?
Don’t talk about fall when someone’s planning a flight.
Especially now.
