cometman 35115 Report post Posted December 3, 2013 My mom is 84, lives alone, and called me tonight because her new furnace stopped working. My brother went down first but couldn't get it working, so I drove the 10 miles to her place, put 40 liters of diesel fuel in the tank, bled it, and got it fired up. She wanted to pay me for the fuel and I refused......reminding her of how many times she and dad helped me over the years. Then I sat down with her and went over her bank statements. The part that sucks? Mom was sharp as a tack all her life and now is slowly starting to lose her memory. It's time for the son to become the parent and she deserves it. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have an appointment with the surgeon Monday.... he will give me the go ahead to get 'er done. The stone? Make an "o" with your thumb and forefinger (like you are giving the manual signal for 'OK')... the hole in the middle??? THAT'S the size of my gallstone. It's the mother of all gallstones. I believe it may even have minions. Little stones. It's the "Sly" in Sly and the Family Stone. When the stone is gone, I'll be singing "Thank You (Falettinme be mice elf agin) Oh blessed bacon....

Wolf Knight 29667 Report post Posted December 8, 2013 This "things that suck" is not just for me, it's for all the cerb guys that call St. John's home. Very recently, St. John's lost one of the best ladies this town has ever seen. Other Cerb members and I will lament for a long time to come Danika's ("Sweet as Pie" here on Cerb) decision to move to Halifax. Although she asked not to be reco'd (she was in huge demand just from word of mouth) in a very short time this fantasic woman became the ATF of pretty much every guy who who was lucky enough to met her. Treat her well Halifax. Right now you guys have no idea the treasure that you have gained, but you soon will. We certainly realize just what we have lost. I got to know her very well over the months and feel genuine sadness to know she's gone. :( 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes...you got it right sir...except for one thing...I have been banned from the MA now...she watched the last session and thought it a little too "passionate"...although the sex with my gf was fkn hot afterwards...lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Old Dog 179138 Report post Posted December 10, 2013 Monkeys with machine guns. Sure they look really cute, but those little bastards are trained killers. Ninja monkeys are worse. Zombie ninja monkeys are even worser. Don't get me started on the Vegan zombie ninja monkeys with machine guns. That's even worserer. The worserest? Hipster vegan zombie ninja monkeys with machine guns - they don't even need the guns. They are lethal. I think I need to talk to my doctor about the meds. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
