They did one procedure to him today....which should be enough to kick anyone's aZZ....http://stripersandanglers.com/Forum/images/icons/icon9.png but he made it through and will get another one tomorrow...recovery period from 3-6 weeks....so he's down for the count.....but they can't silence the grouch, as he posted tonight....:HappyWave:

So if ya can spare an extra prayer or 2 today....he, his family, and I would appreciate it....
And if ya got questions about reels, rods, custom rods, rigging, gear, or techniques, now (a week or so from now) would be the best opportunity to ask him, as he will be down for the Winter and have a lot of non-fishin time on his hands....feel free to PM, E-mail, or call the Grouch and ask away.....but please don't ask him any questions about OBAMA or DR LUBCHENKO! :ROFLMAO :scared:








We know you're in good hands, OGB, and hope the path to recovery is not as painful as they predict it to be...praying for God to watch over ya.....:thumbsup: hang in there, pal....we're rootin for ya, and looking forward to having you back as your ol grouchy self.....;) :kiss: :moon: :cool: :HappyWave:

Update, talked to his girlfriend last night, he had just gone to sleep, was in a bit of pain from the surgery.
Got a call from him today, missed it, his message said "You missed the call from OGB, too bad for you!"...that tells me he's regaining his grouchy disposition back, good to hear,,,,:)

Fin, Best of luck in your recovery. I've had a couple of nasty surgeries...the pain gets a little less each day. Prayers out.

And Dark, fer the love of Gawd....How about a little H20 and irish Spring before you visit OGB? The last thing he needs is a fish bum walking into the room after a 36 hour run with a haze of gnats following him. :laugh:

^^ Mick, I've heard of that stuff Irish Spring but never got a chance to use it...is it like an Irish Whiskey kind of thing, or is it Spring water from Ireland? :huh: :rolleyes:
Please fill me in when you get a chance, I'm always anxious to try those new-fangled products on the marketplace....:laugh:






********
Update...
Talked to him twice today. He was doing the PT the first time, he's on this electronic machine that forces movement for 3 hours a day....:kooky: he was in a lot of pain at first, but the heavy meds they doped him up with are helping him through...that basstard is one tough SOB! :clapping: :thumbsup:

Talked to him again about an hour ago, he was getting a little groggy but wanted to thank all who prayed and are sending him well wishes.

Tomorrow he's being moved to a rehab center....he'll be there for up to a week, so if ya want to call him, he said Sun would be a better time....

And again, if anyone wants to hitch a ride when I go to visit him at the rehab center (after I Google the meaning of the word "Irish Spring")...PM or call me and I'll be the chauffer.....:)

History
Up until the 1990s, Irish Spring soap bars only came in one scent (known internally as "Ulster (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulster) Fragrance"), but the Colgate company has since branched out into several niche varieties and scents. Also, Irish Spring deodorants and shaving products were manufactured until the 1980s. In 2007, Irish Spring body wash (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shower_gel) was introduced. In addition, in 2011, Irish Spring deodorant was reintroduced as part of Colgate-Palmolive's Speed Stick (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_Stick) brand of products.
In 1986, the soap changed its formula, including a different scent, and adding skin conditioners.http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/67/Bar_of_Irish_Spring_deodorant_soap.JPG/800px-Bar_of_Irish_Spring_deodorant_soap.JPG (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/67/Bar_of_Irish_Spring_deodorant_soap.JPG)

Just a point of etiquette, Dark: Is it okay to lather up and shave after taking a nap and a dump in a construction site port a potty? :ROFLMAO
