fastphil temporarily out of action
I am in the process of giving birth to my first kidney stone, a 5mm gem that woke me up at three in the morning. As the ER DR said it’s fine in the kidney and fine in the bladder but the road in between is not for the faint of heart. Between the pain and pain meds I am having a hard time functioning, so I have stop gaming until the little bugger passes. Hopefully the stone will pass in a few days or the pain lessen enough to focus. Sorry for the delay.
Regards, Phil

Neil Simon, the playwright, once described it as trying to pass luggage.
Hope it's not quite as bad.
Feel better,

Well I finally gave birth to the little bugger and hopefully I will not have another. I am back in business.

Phil

Stay away from cola's and iced tea.
Drink clear fluids. That is what the doctor told me. So, I switched from Crown Royal and Ginger ale to Vodka and Tonic.
