Ok -
now that I'm here, we ought to make a list of cool kids that are missing.
Is that other place so moderated that everyone is over here now. I got
abused over there a few times too many and sort of got tired of sitting down
with my cocktail and having to edit and re-edit what I thought about topics
just to make sure I didn't get kicked out - - over there if you brought up something
the least bit opinionated, it was booted from the Cafe (like saying that blue blazers
are cheaters) is that cool here? (cause they are). -

The other site has disabled posts and private messaging so that it won't display email addy's or our website. I know, it's hard to believe, but they did. We're going to have to dig a little deeper to find ways to contact the missing troups. -

Can someone tell Lone Wolf his email bounced back to me for some reason. Might be why he hasn't been able to register.Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory.

um - I don't really know - I get so much junk e-mail I'm just not sure - - what's up with it?
back to the earlier point, why was / is the "other site" so over moderated and full of such hard asses? I never really got that . . . . after all, it is supposed to be a place of information and discourse regarding something that most people on the site consider fun, a hobby, an enjoyable pursuit, something to smile and laugh about, appreciate and so forth. Making everyone feel as if they are on pins and needles wasn't ever helpful. Just for full disclosure, I'm still "over there" contributing answers to serious questions. Hey - - is Tipi Walter over here? I have his contact info and run into him in the woods sometime. We have similar tendencies. I can go fetch him if needed. -

Nope. After consulting with the surgeon I'm putting it off for a while. I opted out for a series 5 injections over a 5 week period to replace the fluid in my knees. Right knee feels good, left is getting there. Been getting electric stimulation along with ultrasound and rehab machines. I'm about 4 weeks in now. Got in the pool today and swam 500 yds. Feelin' optimistic. Will be testing them trail wise in Feb.Changes Daily→ ♪♫♪♫♪♫♪♫ ♪♫♪♫♪♫ ← Don't blame me. It's That Lonesome Guitar. -

Good time to test them. I went hiking and camping one or two weeks after I got my ACL replacement. It did not get above 20 degrees for 4 days, about 7 degrees at night. I almost froze to death on top of Black Bald, but I did not feel my knee pain at all hiking two miles up the mountain several times and crawling in and out of my tent. -

Gonna do a section of the FT in Feb and if that works out I'm gonna try and stay in hiking shape and do the Alabama portion of the PT in May. I've dropped about 18lbs (body weight) and hope for a good bit more by then. Then I'll be lookin' the AT's way again more than likely 2015. God willing.Changes Daily→ ♪♫♪♫♪♫♪♫ ♪♫♪♫♪♫ ← Don't blame me. It's That Lonesome Guitar. -

Congrats on the weight loss. I'm working on mine myself. I would like to drop another 8 or so. -
