Slingshot Booze & Blues 2018 (Fri, Oct 5th 2018, 9:00am - Sun, Oct 7th 2018, 3:00pm)

Quote from MACAWS

We missed you and Barbie - sorry it took so long but we had a bigger turn out than expected and I had to have more stickers printed. Next year you have to get it in person.

I will. We missed all the fun

Hello Gang! I'm back...well sort of...

I am so sorry I missed Clarksville...was traveling extensively at the time. Since then it has been quite a challenge to even check email. (Thanks Mitch for checking up on me.) Unfortunately a couple weeks ago my appendix ruptured and I was rushed to the ER and later surgery to remove the troublesome bugger. It was touch and go for awhile and now I am on the mend with the assistance of oxycodone and mega-doses of antibiotics. I hope to return to work in a couple of weeks. I guess the more miles, the greater the chances of a part malfunctioning! I should have contacted the crew to get ideas on how to get rid of all the painful gas they use to inflate my abdomen in order to poke around in there. Anyway I'm so looking forward to the next ride after I have this tube taken out this week. As of now, all I can do is look at the Black Pearl and daydream. And please...nobody say "Pictures or it didn't happen!"

Glad to hear that you're on the mend
Maybe just a pic of the Black Pearl
Just kidding

Here's to a quick recovery, hope to see you soon.

Wishing you a complete and speedy recovery!

@Candyman missed you in Clarksville! Wishing you a speedy recovery!

Glad you're on mend and hope you're back in the saddle next week @Candyman!!!!

Godspeed back to good health quickly @Candyman! Thankful you are on the mend!

Ah Crap - that sucks.. Glad you are healing and hope you can get back in the saddle soon.
Tell ya what - as soon as you are up to take a ride let me know, I will rally up the boys and we will come down to fetch ya!
Be safe - go easy on those meds - they are some bad shit!

I found out exactly how bad after they started pumping me with Morphine before surgery. I made friends with the little leprechaun that I kept seeing perched on the headboard of my hospital bed! Why aren’t there any “good” hallucinations? Like Halle Berry in that scene from the movie Swordfish?

Now that is one beautiful woman - I have hallucinated about her many times....

I wonder if that scene might have inspired this play?

Jared Goff checks into a play called 'Halle Berry' and the actress notices on Twitter - CBSSports.com

Hope you have a full recovery,

MACAWS I got your note and the stickers about a week or so ago. We have been super slammed here lately. Been working crazy long hours and really only getting off long enough to get some sleep and return right back to work. Really those are just excuses though, I should have dropped you a line sooner! Thank you for thinking of me!
