Yeah, I fell out of a high chair when I was about 1. Could possibly explain a great many things.

sfogate sorry to hear about your son, that's just a bummer.

Now, if I could get some of colpuck's luck with bump vouchers i'll be happy. :)

Thanks. My son isn't too happy either. But he still can make the team since it usually only takes 6 weeks to heal, unless he has to have a pin inserted.

Need a bump: Route thru CLE. :D

I think we can rule out a Trump Carbon Fiber card. :rolleyes:

787's (targeted) first flight is getting closer and closer!

If can find some Saver availability, I might burn some miles and head out for the day... :)

I'm kicking back in today's Hyatt - about to visit a Rewards Network restaurant for a mileage bonus.

According to sfogate’s Crystal Ball the CO retro jet will be at EWR Friday June 26 10am C-120. I have to drop my car off for service in the morning in Bloomfield and I think I will take a ride down to EWR. Anyone else going to stop by?

Tempting.

Something not so right about that. Probably not stolen, but definitely not right.

Good day Box.

Round 1 of my slot tournament was :rolleyes:. Better score in round two. Let's see what tomorrow brings.

sfogate, sorry to hear about your son.

I'd expect that date to slip. People I know there seem way to leisure lately including week long vacations and such.

I'm thinking of putting my blackjack tournament streak on the line in a week and a half - my worst performance still saw me advance to the second round.

Nothing exciting, just 4 pics of a range rover and some gmail.com e-mail address. I was only able to get 7 e-mails out of the Nigerian.

My son is back from football camp. He had a great time and scored a touchdown. I now know why he is in zero pain....I took a look at his x-ray and his collarbone is broken in three places, with a bone chip floating. None of his bones are touching thus zero pain.

My crystal ball predicts surgery to fix this or atleast to remove the bone chip.

Hi B:rolleyes:X -- was out all day -- went to a funeral for a friend (50) who died of breast cancer that had metastized to her liver. So sad as she has two boys - age 16 & 18.

I was, at that point, going to get his half upon his death. My sister showed her true self and got my dad to deed her half of his half, with his remaining 1/4 going to her upon his death. Then she discovered that she was going to be stuck with me and the condo fees so she gave back her 1/4 and then the deed was written so that I no longer got his half upon his death.

Then end result is now half belongs to my mother and half to me. The market has totally dropped in Boca and the condo is only worth half of what my father purchased it for. For a while his share was going to be taken by The State of North Carolina because he was on Medicaid.

This is so confusing!:rolleyes:

Hello, 9-1-1 what's your :rolleyes:.........

Just got a call from my son's football coach. He is currently being treated for a broken collar bone.

This will make his 4th broken collar bone. It's a family joke that he breaks one every 6 years. Except this time he's three years early. First two were on the left side and now it's the right side again.

Good thing is that it's only a 6 week injury and football season doesn't start until September.

Weather in SFO: sunny but cooler with a nice ocean breeze.

Update on son: The ER Doctor called last night. My son's collar bone is broken in 4 places. It must have been one hell of a tackle considering they were in full gear. It has been strongly recommended that he see an orthopod for possible surgery to insert pins. Guess I know what I'm doing Monday morning.

So sorry to hear about your son's collar bone break:eek: -- hope the orthopedist is able to figure out the best way to repair the break.:)
