Funky Friday, It Happened One April edition



I think I've got the US Blues, too. There's probably no approved treatment for that covered under my health insurance, though.

I did get word today, however, that I finally have an appointment for an MRI on my knee. At 6pm Saturday. Not sure if it's worth shaving my legs for -- what do you think?

    Yazir...me too. Enough already. I'm slowly tuning out to it all.

    The hair question...I am particularly sensitive to the female members of my household USING MY RAZOR for shaving the gams. So just don't ask me.

    Only if your legs look like Jerry Garcia's face.

    Fellas, the more I think about it, I'm of the mind that for what they will no doubt charge (my insurance company) for the MRI, a free shave & pedicure should be part of the deal. I'll let you know how that works out.

    Nothing wrong with unshaven legs anyway, and if you think they won't like it, all the more reason not to make things easier for them. Hope it goes OK.

    Ah, Vole - if I were 10 years and 6500 km closer to you, I'd make you an indecent proposition.

    (Oh, wait - I think I just did.)

    America is sick in ways that no MRI can detect and no doctor can cure. I'm back to feeling the way I did for the eight Bush years; I had to tune out and turn off to bear it.

    Legs: the tech is gonna handle your ankle briefly to position it for the scan, so just shave up from that ankle an inch or two. Just the one, though.

    Name dropping: Jerry was once my brother-in-law. I don't think it registered with him. Later on down the road, though, it made a big hit with my son's garage bandmates.

    I'm not a Deadhead, but then only a few GD songs have ever been played locally, mostly Touch of Grey.

    I think all body hair is optional...

    Belatedly commenting to all here -- Friday was Funkissimo, and Saturday not much better. But the MRI tech never saw my fuzzy gam. Still, the procedure proceeded, and I finally have a diagnosis, even if it's not one I wanted.

    Perhaps I'll provide a more detailed explanation later. Or sooner.
