Hello from St. Mary's from Uncle Bill.

Bill,
Smoke and prayers continuing to go up from the heart of Texas. Wonderful to hear from you.

Bill,

Glad to see you still kicking. It looks like you have some eager customers waiting.

Thanks for taking the time to let us know how your doing, you've been in a lot of thoughts and prayers. Get Yangdu to whip you up some milkshakes, you'll feel better when the wieght starts to come back.

My favorite milkshake recipe:
-fill the blender 3/4 with Breyer's Vanilla (The original stuff, milk, cream, sugar, vanilla, nuttin' else)
-don't quite cover the 'scream with vit D milk (2%? Phaugh!)
-sprinkle in some sugar (trust me),
-(Throwing in some weight lifter's whey protein powder from GNC or somewhere couldn't hurt either)
-blend*
if you're feeling froggy, crack an egg or two in there ala Rocky. I know we're not supposed to eat 'em raw anymore, but I haven't been burned yet, so live dangerously, sez I. In all seriousness, 'shakes will go down easy, and help get the weight back up.
*hoping Uncle Bill isn't lactose intolerant
I've been whipping stuff up in my vita-mix lately. A little soy milk and frozen fruits of the day. They make a good shake and I can taylor it to my liking. (no sugar or milk for me) Sometimes I use yogurt though. It might be a good thing for a guy with no apetite, because you can tailor the flavor to be at least tolerable. Eggs sound like a great idea to pack in some protein too. I put them in my homemade orange julius.

Take care. Good luck working on the karma!

UB: watch out for the convex needles...they're REALLY sharp. ;)

That's actually a good thing. Once the nurse poked the vial with the flu vaccine, tossed that needle, put on a fresh one. She explained that this way I'd get a nice sharp one. Didn't feel a thing.

Smoke continues....

My favorite milkshake recipe:............

Hadn't thought of this in decades: Ice cream, brewers yeast, raw eggs, honey, milk, fresh banana(s).
Weight gain guarantee. :D
Add or substitute yogurt (to recolonize the gut with healthful micros)

& blackstrap molasses ('cause it does a body good!)

A little wheat germ might be handy too.

:)

For lack of anything better to do I've been using a pair of diagonal pliers to clip the incense to the right length to fit the abalone shell I use as a burner. Hey, as wiped out with flu as I am, that's something my mind can handle! Makes me feel I'm getting ahead instead of falling behind on smoke.
 
Uncle Bill,

Great to hear that you're on the mend.
Keep battling and take care.
You too Yangdu.

Chuck
 
out thoughts are with you...but I'm sure you know that...it's that funny feeling running up your spine :rolleyes:
 
Great news! :)

Once I get over laughing at all the "bedpan" humour around here, prayers will continue.

Tom

ps to the group- Do we really want a field test report on the Bura bedpan?! :eek:
