Hey Guys, it appears I will beat many of you to the guns of gold! My pneumonia has finally been diagnosed as something rare and incurable.

Does anyone have a used portable oxygen generator for sale? My insurance company has elected to give me O2 bottles on a wheeled carriage which aren't very maneuverable. New portables are very expensive. I'm willing to pay a reasonable price. Thanks for your attention.

Yep, back in hospital again. Pneumonia this time. Been in for a week, probably have a few days to go. But at least there is an up side. I have a gorgeous young nurse named Miranda. She is one of those touchy-feely types which in this instance doesn't bother me at all. This afternoon she...

Lois Jeanette, passed away this morning at 3:16 AM. She passed quietly after 2 days unconscious. She was a sweet soul and I shall miss her. Please say a prayer for her on her final journey.

which version of Cape Fear was best in your opinion? The DeNiro version would have been great if not for it's predecessor. Robert Mitchum just knocked it out of the park. It stands today as one of the scariest performances in the movies. A close second is Alan Arkin in Wait Until Dark.

Do you prefer to prepare the bean mixture separately and then ladle it over the rice or do you like the rice and beans all mixed together? We bought some Zatarains in a box. I thought it was gonna be just the bean mixture, but the rice is all mixed in. I'm gonna have to make my own, I guess.

I have a small collection of about 70 folding knives but I don't have an Italian style switch blade. I don't want to buy one of those 10.00 knives on Amazon. Does anyone know where I might find a decent quality knife for $100.00 or less? Owning,buying,selling and open carry are legal in Mo.
