Dang,AK!, hope you are feeling better-
yeah, guys, stay on top of your tests and medical appointments-
guys, dont put off a colonoscopy- its not that bad, just mildly embarrassing!- ( mostly to your significant other!) I had a bout with colitis a few years back- that was all. But it was worth it to know.
Hope you fellers have a pleasant evening- Peace to all, ttyl!

Thanks Bear, I just know somethings up, - specially after looking that last up. Not the obvious symptoms, otherwise I would of had it done. Some of the others listed, not so common.....Hopefully it's just guilt from not getting it done yet...ieyyyiyi. Guess I needed to hear from another, just one more apparently. Calling that number back tomorrow.

We had to push that SOB up his driveway and into the garage. What a joy that was. It rolls pretty well, but between all 4 wheels being able to swivel, being 550 pounds(ish), going uphill, and swinging like a pinata (thanks for the analogy, Ohio)...... it was pretty fun, lol.

Don't get me wrong about the wheels on the hoist though. I was happy as hell that all 4 wheels swivel when we needed to shift the motor to the left to clear the rack and pinion.....
