 [ar15]  Cancer


If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Samuel Adams

Good for you!  The Big C got my dad 13 years ago and I applaud anybody who can make it through that.

Congrats and Happy Alive Day !!!
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Outstanding, sir.  Congratulations.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

From one curmudgeon to another - I would expect nothing less from you.  Does this mean the docs will slow their schedule of poking/prodding?

Now, go out and celebrate.

stay safe.
If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

I had my normal yearly check up in May.  No digital activity.  PSA is 0.

We're all the better for having you around, congrats!
For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

I've posted this before...probably a few years ago.   But here it is again.

Men have your doc give you a yearly PSA blood test and have him do a digital exam of your prostate at the same time.

Do not pay any attention to the government medical lackeys who are saying that PSA and digital exam of the prostate is overated.  If the exam and or PSA provides suspicion, move forward and have additional screening and testing.

It is claimed that prostate cancer progresses slowly.  But there is a virulent form as well.  It is your body, so expletive deleted the government medical lackeys.
