Hi FC, & All! I single FC out 'cause she's new.
Wow Todd! You have a remarkable attitude. There's really nothing to be said about your WW that hasn't been clear by her behavior. You're a strong man no doubt.
Your boys must be everything to you now. Well, except the thought of SF! EEK! I've started down the smart [censored] path. Is there any turning back?

Okay my guess is that Fraidy Cat is in the medical profession. She bashes neurosurgeons too well and efficiently not to be.
That was really good stuff BTW. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Oh yeah, the butt spackle, funny butt kinda gross too. Wait, does it work better if you mix it up with a plumbers pencil before use?

Hi Nams, I have a son and DIL who did some serious potting before they got so busy with life and kids. Nice things. Not famous, but wonderfully creative and some even useful things. Lots of heavy duty stoneware.
Now about that turning back, you'd probably better. Somehow I don't think that's going to be a path anyone will follow you down.

I had to deal with a neurosurgeon for a while. I had two neck disks removed & filled in with bone from my hip after I crashed my motorcycle into a chain. He had the personality of stone with the arrogance of an opera star. I'l bet his mommy told him each & every day he was the most special boy on earth. I'm pretty sure he was single.

FC, if I could be a potter & make a living I'd do it in a heart beat. Some do but it's a BIG step to take with three boys who want to eat.
I know of one couple, the wife is the potter the H sells her work. They both seem very happy & she's not just doing production work witch will kill creativity in a nano second.
Does your son or DIL do any pottery work any more?
Food for thought;
food in a mustache, butt crack spackle in a mustache, drool in a mustache. You get the picture. Plus...they poke.

Nams, I once knew one whose Mother had her labor induced so she could beat the first grade enrollment deadline. The big questions is how was the surgical outcome. I don't care if they are dead fish as long as they can make me better.

Wow Todd! You have a remarkable attitude. There's really nothing to be said about your WW that hasn't been clear by her behavior. You're a strong man no doubt. Thanks nams and sorry for writing a book. I guess WW is very telling with her behavior. Your boys must be everything to you now. Well, except the thought of SF! EEK! I've started down the smart [censored] path. Is there any turning back? It has brought us even closer if that was possible. You will have to ask Luna about turning back. The way I interpreted what she said, well.....do you remember the fable of the tortoise and the hare (rabbit)? The rabbit made a pit stop or two and won the battle, but lost the race. Or to put it another way, the rabbit didn't quite finish the race because she decided that winning without affection was not worth the effort. Or something like that.

larousse, I did not make anything pretty tonight. Pottery has its cycles. You make, trim, glaze & fire. I did make a couple of bowls the other day. Nothing exciting but bowls sell pretty well.
I've been doing sort of a landscape thing when I glaze & those sell quite well.

Nams, they are with a new child, she's finishing her Ph.D in physics and he's working his [email]a@@[/email] off trying to impress the higher ups in the company he is with. Obviously, it's a great avocation but a very scary vocation with a family. They have all their equipment in storage and some day......wistfully.

The outcome was fair. I think I'd search out even more options before having that kind of surgery again. My neck is stiff & doesn't have much range of motion but I suppose it beats numb extremities & constant back pain.
Todd, how could you not write a book. Your path to the discovery of your brain tumor was long & torturous. Compaired to how your felt pre problems leading to the discovery how do you feel now?
Tee hee, tortoise & the hare...oh I see not hair as is mustache hair, 'cause that pokes. I'm pretty sure the rabbit has no hair.

Ph.D in physics & a potter! Quite an unusual combination. Yeah, having a family to feed puts a damper on the free flow of creativity.
