How’s Eddie?

[fried1765]

Building Alaska has been the only thing I've really stuck with. I've watched so many episodes over the years, but never in order, and rarely to the end of the builds. It's been fun seeing a season run from start to end.

We tried watching Yellowstone, but my wife has a switch in her head that as soon as something happens that she does not like, that switch flips and she is done. We got all of two minutes into Yellowstone and Kevin Costner shoots his horse. Bye, we're not watching it anymore. Maybe she will hear enough about it from some friends that she will want to give it a tray again, but for now, it's not gonna happen.

It's been a real struggle to find a series to watch that we both enjoy. We tried Cobra Kai last night and couldn't believe how bad it was. First episode was enough to give up on it.

Then we tried Opal Hunters in Australia, and we really enjoyed that. She hates just about anything to do with machinery, but she did like seeing how the opals where dug out and what it took to find them. We've watched 4 episodes and will watch more of them.

20/20 on ID is probably our favorite show right now.

Building Alaska, and Gold Rush.....BOTH fun to watch!

Exactly! The way people handle and dispose of masks clearly points up why contraceptives don稚 work.

I almost spit out my coffee on that one when I read!

Luckily I wasn't drinking or I would have spewed it!!!

In response to your quote: We should be far more worried about those in leadership roles with..... brain dysfunction!

Oh yeah...

Oh yeah...

I know, right? If I didn't like Canadians I'd move farther South to get away from them.

Eddie, if you like to read ....Agatha Christie or Lois L'Amour.

No recent news on how Eddie is doing?

True dat! :thumbsup:
If only they could all be as sharp as you at the seasoned age of 80 and still going strong!

I'm doing a lot better. I took all of last week off and was feeling pretty good by the end of the week, but my wife insisted that I stay home and not exert myself. The issues happen when you start to breath heavy, and doing just about anything made me short of breath. I started a job on Monday with a list of things to do so they can sell it. This is pretty common work for me that isn't too physical, just a lot of little things to do all day long. So far, I'm making it through the day just fine, but I am worn out by the time I get home.

Karen is doing great. She has her full sense of smell and taste back, plenty of energy and no breathing issues. Her version of Covid was significantly less then mine, yet she has Asthma, Lupus, Heart issues, and she had colon cancer less then 3 years ago. The biggest difference that we both feel is significant is that she has been on Hydroxychloroquine for her Lupus, and I do not take any medications.

Last week my dad, who is 84 and he's had cancer twice, started to have symptoms for Covid. He is very tired, dizzy, and he's having breathing issues. He did the nasal test and came back negative. They had the results in one day, while my results took 3 days. He has gotten a lot worse, so he went into the ER and they said that he has mild pneumonia and that he was dehydrated. They also did another nasal test because he seems to have Covid, but that test also came back negative. It's a mystery why he has pneumonia? Are the tests wrong?

That would be nice, but given the political/partisain rancor of the last couple decades I'm not sure how many sane people would even want to seek office. Seems rather like a person has to be a bit power-crazed to want a leadership position at a national level given cleaning out porta potties would seem to deal with less "sewage". Definitely think we've crossed the point where people are more interesting in "their side" winning than what's in the interest of the country as a whole (which isn't helped by how many people seem to think their local problems automatically need a national solution). :confused3:


edit: seems Eddie has provided what I originally came here looking for :thumbsup: (even if the news isn't all positive, knowing tends to be less painful than imagination)

Its probably pneumonia (still very serious). With Covid dominating all news and other illnesses, I think some of the traditional winter illnesses have all but been forgotten.

Oh I think a strong, positive leader with a message of TRUE unity, could take this country to places of grandeur.
