On a Clear Day You Can See a Couple of Feet If I'm Lucky

Recovering from yesterday's minor medical, uh, procedure, so as I said posting will be meh for the rest of the week.

Once again, though, in honor of -- and as a clue to - said procedure, here's authentic Who wannabes The Eyes and their minor mod/freakbeat classic "When the Night Falls."





I should add, however, that although the, uh, procedure went fine, there was a brief moment of panic on my part when I heard my surgeon utter the word "oops!".

There was a classic early Bill Cosby routine built around that exact premise:

"Oops! Wadaya mean, oops!??"

Glad everything's okay and ... Arrrgghh!

Will you be wearing an eyepatch the next time I see you?

;-)

The eyepatch -- actually, it's a rather ugly bandage -- is coming off at noon. And none to soon, because it itches like a mofo.

Anyway, apparently that's it, except I have to see the doc on a fairly regular basis for a couple of weeks to make sure nothing untoward is happening on an infection level.

Seems unlikely, though; my surgeon said it went perfectly.

Ooops in that case is just wrong.
Get well.

Glad to hear you're on the mend.

Break a leg.

Ahhh, damn! We don't get a week of piracy and plunder?!? You'd look great in a black eyepatch taking charge of The Wicked Wench and displaying your Jolly Roger.

Avast ye! Simels the Spoliator is swinging the lead! He holds dominion over the cockswain and the powder monkeys. If we take a caulk, he shivers our timbers and stiffens our futtock shrouds.:-)

So much for being a drivelswigger. Time for some more grog and Salmagundi. Aaaaaaarghhhhh!

Ahoy, the "ayes" have it.
