I've been pretty open on here about having cancer but I really have not shared much detail about my diagnosis/prognosis. I would like to start doing that in case it's useful to others and I'll start a separate thread for it but I'm going to share a bit more on this result here specifically (1/7)

A "The Far Side" comic. A female chimp sits on a branch, picking through the fur of a male chimp beside her in the branch. She says, "Well, well -- another blonde hair. -- Conducting a little more "research" with that Jane Goodall tramp?"

Don't worry, she loved this comic.

Imagine telling chunky 60 yo generals that they have to meet weight requirements in 6 months or lose their jobs and pensions.

CafΓ©. The Eternally Sweet Barista Veering away from His Preppy Origins has had enough. He walks over to the table where a chaotic knitter is holding a tiny dog that keeps yapping & says, sotto voce, β€œMa’am, please. None of this can be happening. The dog, the yarn, the barking. Nothing. Please.”
