Some people think that I am nuts!!!!

But actually, I am only half nuts. How do I know? I am going to tell you!!!

This year is the 25th anniversary of my first bout with cancer... That's kind of cool, isn't it?

Well, 25 years ago in 1984, my testicle swelled way up and really hurt. I went to the doctor and he got me hooked-up with an ultra sound of my testicles to see what was going on in there... (The ultra sound story is kind of interesting too, but not for today.)

So, I had an ultra sound and he found that I had one good nut and one bad nut. Here is a picture -
I'll let you figure out which is which.....

He decided that the bad nut should be removed.... so he whipped out his trusty knife...
...and removed the bad nut
and sent it of for testing.........

That left me with only one good nut..........
and half as many nuts as I had to begin with.

Therefore, when someone says, "you're nuts!!!" I know that they really mean, I'm just half nuts!!

HAPPY Valentine's Day.

Cheers, John
Tree Cutting..................

A few minutes after we returned from the Greer Weekend on the 2nd of February, Metcalf Tree Service arrived at our house to cut down some trees...... He got a couple of trees out of the bucket going over our car port.... missed those pictures, but I took some pictures of him in one of the trees in the back yard that he cut down....

When I looked out of the laundry room window and saw him (Mr. Metcalf) hanging by the rope I went ahead and took the shot and then went back to the living room and read a book until they were finished......

Hope you are just hang'n out on Friday the 13th... peace, john
