    Andy started having morbid thoughts about me when my doctor didn't fetch him from the waiting room after my 3+ hour shoulder surgery. Thought I had died on the operating room table and the doctors were figuring out how to break the news. Still not sure if it was wishful thinking or not. Give Anne (and yourself) a great big hug from us. Heal fast! Tell her to have fun in physical therapy! I love my ACL repair patients--they're the most fun!

    That IS funny, because I was just wondering myself if there were women out there who were freaked out by their own female issues! _Pm __ "Scared of love, love and aeroplanes...falling out, I said takes no brains." -- Andy Partridge (XTC)

    This web site mentions the laser technique: http://doctorhoffman.com/tinn1.htm On a similar note, here's a web site where they talk about removing 90-95% of the tonsil tissue with a microdebrider, so as not to expose the throat muscles. Apparently there is a chance of the tonsils growing back, but it's quite small at 0.56%. http://www.itonsil.com/tonsillectomy_intracapsular.html The first web site I linked to says the actual percentage is 3%, but that's still a relatively slim chance... _Pm __ "Scared of love, love and aeroplanes...falling out, I said takes no brains." -- Andy Partridge (XTC)

    I get them all the time, too, and they're really annoying me now more than ever. They have to be part of the reason why I get sick a lot, and why I get sharp ear pains. I'm going to see an ENT in January... Sunny & ACME--how old were you when you had your tonsils removed? I heard that tonsillectomies absolutely suck for adults (increased bleeding, longer healing time, etc.). _Pm __ "Scared of love, love and aeroplanes...falling out, I said takes no brains." -- Andy Partridge (XTC)

    Well, according to one of the old timers (who made an AWESOME traditional chili for the contest, BTW), Andy's chili was the best spaghetti sauce he had ever tasted! Andy forced me to vote for his chili. _Pm __ "Scared of love, love and aeroplanes...falling out, I said takes no brains." -- Andy Partridge (XTC)

    At first I tried the low pulls so that he would "hop" into the target, but I ended up bouncing in as a bloody blob more than landing. So I tried exiting the plane earlier (and further from the target) and pulling higher around the horizon line. Then he kinds of swoops into the center of the target. Other than that, I think it's pure luck. _Pm __ "Scared of love, love and aeroplanes...falling out, I said takes no brains." -- Andy Partridge (XTC)

    I think I saw a clip of it a few weeks ago--I don't think the piece had been completed, yet. Jackie shows up at Hinckley every so often. _Pm __ "Scared of love, love and aeroplanes...falling out, I said takes no brains." -- Andy Partridge (XTC)

    That's exactly why I moved away the first chance I could get (college)! East Tennessee isn't so bad, I guess--I spent most of my life in Knoxville. But...meh, after having lived in Chicago for a number of years and visiting a lot of other big cities, it's suburban hell to me. Anytown, USA. What area of TN would you be in if you got the job? _Pm __ "Scared of love, love and aeroplanes...falling out, I said takes no brains." -- Andy Partridge (XTC)

    You guys should check out the message boards on the FOX site...pretty funny! Here's an example: http://forums.prospero.com/foxspouses/messages/?msg=7323.1 _Pm __ "Scared of love, love and aeroplanes...falling out, I said takes no brains." -- Andy Partridge (XTC)

    I skipped my 10 year reunion--most of the people who went were acquaintances, not friends. I suppose I would've considered going if Chad Pennington (QB for the NY Jets, for those of you who don't know) was going to be there. I still remember him as the scrawny kid in my AP English class, and one of my best friends had the biggest crush on him. It's so funny to see other people fawning and drooling all over him now. _Pm __ "Scared of love, love and aeroplanes...falling out, I said takes no brains." -- Andy Partridge (XTC)

    I think billvon must be a rubber duck. I imagine he's the one who could make bath time lots of fun. _Pm __ "Scared of love, love and aeroplanes...falling out, I said takes no brains." -- Andy Partridge (XTC)

    Okay, dilemma has been solved. We're going to suck it up and get the one additional month of COBRA. Thank you for your responses, everyone!
  25. craichead
    Yes, it's available for 18 months, but my former employer is only paying for 6 months of it. We're trying to decide if we should pay for one additional month that will mostly overlap with Andy's. We have a lapse because Andy's job started in October, and he has a 60 day waiting period until he's eligible for his insurance. _Pm __ "Scared of love, love and aeroplanes...falling out, I said takes no brains." -- Andy Partridge (XTC)
