Well not really.
Just wanted to let you all know I'm a bit out of commission for awhile.
I had a heart attack on Saturday.
Seems a hunk'o goo decided to let loose from somewhere and jammed up the main arterie in my heart.
Sucks at age 43!!!
Things went excellent as far as treatment. But it'll be awhile until I'm back to "normal".
Lost about 1/3 of my output, but the Doc says that I' should be back to where I was ( about )in a year, if I'm a good boy.

I'm good. Just bumming.

holy crap dude! I hope you don't have any more problems... I hate to say it, but all that really good food like burgers and steaks,.. it'll kill ya. Everything that's good in life usually does, it seems.

anything that's colored green is prob'ly ok. :puke:

I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Always remember - "Never let the medical bastards get you down!"
Start walking and give up the fat cigars.
Good luck dude.

Wow. I hope the short term damage was minor and the long term prognosis is good. Listen to you medical team and they will keep you Maraudering for many more years. Lucky your Dr. was in town, there were 30,000+ here this week.

Hey Rich .....be careful for a few weeks, OK? Let 'em do a complete workup, and talk to some hot shot cardiologists and formulate a strategy to beat this. You're lucky, as many do not survive the first incident. Pay attenton to what you're being told, and make sure they know you understand what's being said. You're a survivor, something a large percentage don't get the chance at.

You're on our prayer list, and can count on us for whatever you need. Above all, don't feel sorry for yourself, you're one of the lucky ones, you lived through the first one. :up:

Rich...Happy to see you're typing again so soon. Now, send me your phone number via SergntMac@aol.com and I'll call, keep you company while lying around like the bum you want to be. I'll call you names and mess with your head, you'll feel loved, I promise...

Rich buddy, Chris and I are shocked by the news. We will keep you in our prayers, if there is anything at all we can do, do not hesitate to ask. Now don't be giving Michelle a hard time and listen to her, she's not only the 'BOSS' she's your nurse.

Oh, check your cell you have a message.

Rich,


Absolute bummer, but I'm glad everything is OK. I had a friend who also had problems when he was young, but didn't listen to the docs and had a setback. Don't let that happen to you.

By the way, it wasn't the news about Palmiro or Bonds rthat had anything to do with this was it ?:D

Thanks everyone.
I have every intention of following orders.... otherwise no law suit!! :D
Seriously, I feel very fortunate and am thankful for the additional time.

As a famous cyborg once said " I'll be back."

Rich, sorry to hear about your "delicate" condition. My better half had the same thing happen to her a little over two years ago. Like her, I am sure you'll be fine. Just stay away from the "Scrapple, cheesesteaks, and bacon".
