I'm going against doctor's orders and going out today. I've seen enough springer to last me a lifetime over the past couple of days. There is some preacher charachter they have these days that is pretty funny, though.

working on a construction project. I usually ignore pain, but I couldn't move it without screaming on labor day so my wife drug me to her work. If you ever need to go to the er, go on labor day morning. In and out.

I hope you feel better soon. Being cooped up sucks, when my daughter was a week old, I bundled her and myself up and went for walks. Getting out of the house was like winning the lottery, it was so wonderful.

Thanks.

I'm in a contraption to keep it elevated, but I'm going to go get an estimate on some windows today, so I may have to see if there are any docile barstools that are vacant on the way home.

I hate prescription drugs, and the doctors gave me what amounts to 8 over the counter advils that I am to take every 6 hours. That just doesn't seem healthy for anyone. At least jameson is all natural.

I know someone who recently submitted a documentary!

"...Sitting at home, surrounded by David Ruffin photos, tickets stubbs, newspaper articles, all neatly framed to be viewed as the front door opens...two years of loving and footing the bill for David Ruffin and he returns,"standing on the top" announcing his departure from Philadelphia...and you. Then you get the call, he is with another women laid up in a hotel room. then <IMG alt=">" src="http://s3.images.proboards.com/angry.gif" border=0>. For two years they took care of Ruffin and for what, he was thankless...couple that with a money-belt filled with one-hundred dollar bills."

Also this is a post I submitted on another board...it the quick answer Leidy:

....... let me give credit where credit is due, the "movie" did spearhead my interest, especially when the character who played "Otis" said, "...no one really know what happened." I said to myself, "oh yes somebody knows what happened."

And that was before I knew:
a) Mr. David had given the cash to Murrell for safekeeping,
or
b)Mr. David had announced he was leaving Philadelphia,
or
c) had left Showers and was with another woman the week prior to his death,
or
d) it took the psuedo limo driver an hour to drive 4.12 miles from the hospital to return the limo to the owner/who was last to have possesion of Ruffin's money,
or
e) Murrell didn't retrieve the briefcase at 4 a.m. upon learning it had been left behind at the crackhouse (yeah, right) instead he waited HOURS later when Mr. Eddie called
or
f) David other drugs in his system besides cocaine.
or
g) Murrell and Showers failed to alert police and media Saturday when being interviewed Ruffin returned to Philadelphia with a large amount of cash. - The pseudo limo-driver told Murrell he had failed to pick up the briefcase and left it at the crackhouse when he loaded Ruffin inside to go to the hospital at 4 a.m. (that was their story), yet Murrell didn't retrieve it until much later Saturday only after Eddie called asking questions? THEN he sends it to Showers instead of police(???)

The cash was never in the briefcase after it was given to Murrell and the briefcase was never "left behind" in the crackhouse. And, peeps this wasn't in the movie I watched many years ago.

Whew stay with me and again THANKS!
