Finally went to see the doctor. She said it was arthritis. I said, "But it's only the left ankle." "Don't worry," she replied. "The other one will be coming along." My ankle has been hurting for the past X number of months. Finally went to see the doctor. She said it was arthritis.

I said, “But it’s only the left ankle.”

“Don’t worry,” she replied. “The other one will be coming along.”

Well I'm catching up to 40 very fast and I'm seeing the design flaws in homo sapien. The most troubling to me is memory loss. I've always been the absent-minded professor type. Lots of information stored, but not readily available. Well the time to recover a memory has started to extend. Hopefully the endgame will involve blissful ignorance. :D Say it with me, “It’s not your fault.”

Yes, chaffed elbow is about all Mr. Pitt would seem to suffer from...bummer, really. Great post.

Smoke a pipe. Wear a tweed jacket. Before commenting, lean in. (Remove the pipe.) Say, "You know, this project would be so much better if the code only validated." Don't say much else; be scarce. As for the teeth, I have a similar problem. For all official images (Facebook, Fishermans Daily), I use a Photoshop mask with the appropriate adjustments. I am also trying to develop a photoshop mask that can be worn around town. I expect this invitation to save both you and the economy. There is an upside. Jowls convey gravitas. Smoke a pipe.
