Arrow I'm almost, kind of , sort of back
Well, my surgery is finally over and I'm recuperating now in an assisted living center, my second place to do this. I finally got my computer installed by my son who, along with my other kids, has been incredible. Unfortunately, the connection is rather poor at this place so I won't be on the net too much.

Right now it looks doubtful that I'll be returning to officiating but I may be able to help out doing evals and maybe a little training.

Glad to hear the surgery went well.

Swine, Or Bovine ???
The biggest, and most important, question on my mind right now? Are you still kosher?

I also want to hear about sponge baths, and hot, single, nurses, hopefully of the female persuasion.

Mark, take care of yourself. Spending time with your grandkids is far more important than getting back on the basketball court.

WB Mark,

Hope you continue to recover fully and quickly.

Oh, and I hope you didn't puke you the nurses' shoes in the recovery room!

Thanks for the kind comments everyone. Right now, the way I feel doesn't lead me to believe I'll be back in stripes.

BTW - the nurses were hot - not that I could do anything about it.
