All his so-called docs knocked their heads together and decided they want him in intensive rehab three weeks from now. This plan for a man who still has a feeding tube  in his belly(called a PEG for percutaneous endoscopic grastrostomy), has no gag reflex, understands questions, but can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t say but a word or two a day, lies motionless with his eyes closed unless sat up, and when on his thrice weekly dialysis, exhibits cardiac arrhythmias. Maybe they borrowed Johnny Carson\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Karnac hat. Diane and I are flying-in for a visit a week from Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>****************<\/p>\n<p>Jeff and Karen are born of reptilian blood and hardly bother to heat their house. While I was there I kept the fires going day and night and worried some about how much of their wood I was sending up the chimney. To end  the worry I drove out to Zippy\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Firewood in Daylight, Indiana, for a truck load. I met the owner, Wayne, whose friendly chatter threatened to turn into an afternoon-killing torrent of words,  until I told him to shut-up. Also, when he saw me  pulling on my back-up pair of Adam\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s black synthetic gloves, offered me his leather ones. <\/p>\n<p>It took Jeffro a while to notice the wood I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d bought, but when he did he asked where it came from. <\/p>\n<p>\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Zippy\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s in Daylight.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d I said. <\/p>\n<p>He thought for a long moment.<\/p>\n<p>\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Is that the place with the big pile out front?\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n<p>\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Yep.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n<p>\u00e2\u20ac\u0153That you pick through yourself?\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n<p>\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Yep.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n<p>\u00e2\u20ac\u0153With the guy who talks a lot?\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n<p>\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Yep\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n<p>\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Who offers you his gloves?\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n<p>\u00e2\u20ac\u0153You\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been there?\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I found this and thought about it posting it, but fearing the wrath of the once-a-week anti-youtubers decided not to.
