Brief Update

1. A Russian astrologer is suing NASA. How hilarious is that? "Deform her horoscope." You can't make shit like that up. 2. They have just wheeled my dad in for surgery and my mom called to report that she scrutinized the doctor and that he appears very "healthy and alert"--the doctor, not my dad. My mom doesn't want any sick and tired folks working on her husband.

I hope your dad gets through ok. It is quite important to make sure the surgeon is on top of things - you don't want a surgeon on the butt end of a 36 hour shift!

I hope his surgery isn't related to reading your blog for the first time!

Well, I figure that there are two worst case scenarios. In the more likely (but still not very likely at all) scenario, there's some big problem and they have to amputate his foot, in which case, he can get a peg leg and be the Pirate Pastor. He has already agreed that this sounds like fun.

Or he could die, which is about as likely as him getting hit by a car while out on his walk. It's not out of the realm of possibility, but it's so unlikely that worrying about it is a waste of time.

On the other hand, if he does have to get a peg leg (Do they even still have those? What if you really want one?), I need a good line on a parrot with a sense of humor.
