Simply random stuff

FOMO doesn’t affect me, i’m early retired on a paltry income until I get my state pension, if I can afford it I buy it, if I cant I dont. If I “need” it i’ll sell something to pay for it, for instance I sold two of my Pink floyd Immersion sets to pay for the Camel box set

I sold a kidney.
They grow back, right?

A full episode of The Midnight Special from 1973. Procol Harum hosts and plays six songs. Guests include Alvin Lee, Steeleye Span and Humble Pie. Unlike most episodes that were filmed in California, this was shot in London.

fugging

I agree with that, and I'm going to have to steel this....word representation "fugging".

That is a fugging great word to use. I love it.

Cheers!

Random -

My wife had a recent colonoscopy, the total bill was $17,500. WTF??? But, out of pocket was $100. Thank GOD I have good insurance.

Last time I had a colonoscopy, the doctor asked if I had any jokes for him before they put me under, because apparently many people do…
I asked him if he ever wondered if hemorrhoids and asteroids should have their names reversed?
He smirked & told the nurse to give me the gas…🫠

I had that happen to me once through a chain-link fence. Bad kitty breath!

For me, I'd rather starve for 24 hours rather than position a camera up my bung hole!

It's the procedure, for sure, that scares me.

You’re usually out cold for the procedure. Good drugs. But up all night with the runs is never fun. Always try to get the procedure done early in the day. That way, you can catch up on the sleep after a good breakfast.

I just heard Whitney Houston - I'm Your Baby Tonight and realised the chorus sounds like the X-Men Animated Theme.

Got my hands on their 1st album when I was around 8 years old. Clearly helped my musical tastes develop!

the procedure doesn't bother me at all, cancer on the other hand scares the hell out of me.

Now I'm not concerned with any of it. Great perspective @GOS.

That all sounds worth it to be “early retired”
Sigh…

It is pretty good but not without its problems, after working (mostly outside) for 45 years I have a number of health issues, my left ankle, my right knee and my back are buggered, apart from that i’m great 🤪

So, director Bob Clark's big break came with Porky's back in 1982. Due to the success of that movie, he then directed the now classic movie, A Christmas Story in 1983.

Good thing you are virtually “Surrounded” by comrades to help prop you up!

Boy I know how that feels !!!
I'm very glad I was able to retire at 60 and have had a good
long time I haven't had to answer an alarm clock.

No alarm is the best thing about it 👍

I had one in 2021, slept through it, never felt a thing, got woken up with a nice cup of tea, all free, you Americans are fugging nuts paying through the roof for healthcare so that insurance companies can make $billions!

Better that than paying the enormous taxes you pay.
No thanks

For me, Sunday nights. By the time I was near the end of my career the depression would start coming on Sunday afternoon. The dread of Monday morning. Now it's my favorite night of the week, just for that reason.

What enormous taxes is that?
