I'm glad that you're alive, brother. Take notes on what it takes to recover. This is going to catapult you into the stratosphere of human awareness. In six months/a year from now, the little details will be the most juicy and thought provoking. If you're going to be in there a while, going crazy.. DM me the location and I'll come visit 🤜🤛
Was released from Rochester Sunday night and I got my good ol’ mom looking after me.  I’ll be ready to toast over cocktails in Vegas by the end of the calendar year.

Getting around with the help of a walker now....most of the pain left is radiating out of my l5 nerves running down my left leg.  Hopefully it’s the swelling around my broken pelvis causing most of that and it will hopefully subside gradually over time.

They are gonna have to hit me a helluva lot harder than that to knock the smile off my face!

Oregon sportsbetting "Scoreboard" app is run by the Oregon lottery.  Fairly shady.  Blazers are +6.5 globally, +5 on the state app. :lmao:  

Might lose, but I gotta take the Lakers at that price.
At least the good guys won.

recovery update:

I traded my 8 hour dose of tramadol last night for 400mg worth of pot edibles and while I was very much enjoying the "Last Dance" series with my family, apparently I feinted head first when I tried to stand up from the couch and use my walker.  Good news is that my face caught me before I hit the hardwood floor with the rest of my body.

Don't think I hurt anything more or anything new.  Will definitely be dialing the edibles back to about the 150 mg range.

When I started to come to I had no idea what planet I was on.  My stepdad's 62 year old bald head and cowboy moustache was not exactly how I pictured my guardian angel.

400mg!  It is the THC dosage that matters.  Having a step daughter in the medical marijuana business,   10mg of THC in an edible seems to be the right amount to get that perfect buzz without being comotose, or so I hear! I recognize it is different for everyone, including body weight, tolerance to THC etc. HTH. 

 
Hooter what are they feeding you. Throw some omega 3 supps in there for the nerve damage - but that's not my point, was just gonna say all those milligrams must be provoking hella munchies.. I'm a fat kid at heart, I have a little fat boy inside of me. Man I'd be waist deep in Doritos wrappers and ice cream cartons if I was u right now :lol:

 
I had a few dozen 400mg medical nerd ropes from CA put aside for pandemic winter, and I accidentally ate a whole one because hit tasted pretty good.

had 1/3 of one today am in a much better place!

So when I went down head first on the hardwood floor, I had my mom make me 2 pieces of toast with strawberry jam before I would accept any help. I was higher than a hippie in a helicopter!  Been eating a stoner's share of lucky charms today!

Sure appreciate the Omega tip, I'll be adding those immediately!

Yeah I don’t use very often and at a golf outing a few years back I took 2 10mg little snacks and it floored me.  I mean I did have 15-20 drinks too but it was definitely the edibles that did me in

My buddy is a high school principal and 5mg took him to another flipping planet last time we were in Vegas.  I could eat 200mg for breakfast and forget about it by noon.

Now if I added alcohol I’d be feral at that point.  I turn “on” instead of “off” when over stimulated.

if anyone hasn't noticed yet, ol' hooter struggles with moderation, and that's kind of why I'm awesome.....and also hard to love I'm told.
I'm a little skinny boy at heart, but I have a big fat old man all around that heart unfortunately.  I also struggle with moderation, but more in the "vodka, gambling, and carbs" arena.

Been on a low carb diet for a few weeks now.  Did have a few cheat weekends but slowly dropping a few pounds

Not super strict, I’ll still have a few beers and I’m not targeting any specific daily threshold , but have basically eliminated all bread, rice, pasta, potato, chips and sugar (Other than some small amounts in sauces and dressings)

I was 295 at one point during quarantine, probably dropped 10 lbs prior to the diet just from drinking less.  Around 280 now, would like to get to 225 long term, want to at least get down to 250 but at that point I might have to reintroduce some carbs in moderation

I spent quarantine on a mild cycle of oral anavar playing with a 30 lb mace, a couple of 15lb clubs, and a 35 lb kettlebell.

I was in tremendous shape going into this, 6'3" 190, and I spend enough time on my hips that I will still throw a flying armbar in a bar fight.

That said, the muscle attrophe is almost worse than the soreness.  Guessing I end up down about 20 lbs.  I can't wait to go to town building this back up in a few months.

With the advice of my painkillers I told the one I was so worked up over my unfiltered thoughts on her recent life decisions.  Probably didn't go over the way I thought it would, or maybe it did.  Either way, its done and imo its better to be sour grapes then a cuck.

 
Man I dislike this terminology. Beta cuck simp mangina is the proper nomenclature I believe. Man that porn star was here and cuck came across the tube site list and she acted like she didn't know how to pronounce it. And I think she doth protest too much or whatever. I really, really dislike that term though. Because I think it became popular on the internet and just went off like wildfire. Yo so do you feel better. What did she say, how did she respond..

better to have laid it all out there then to wonder what if........  Closure is your friend

David Blaine consumed mushrooms before that interview -110 vs Did not consume mushrooms prior to that interview -110
The Post Malone/Joe Rogan Experience from a few weeks ago where they are both tripping is a treat to watch.  When I saw it the first time I could tell right away that Malone was tripping balls, but Rogan fooled me.

 
 Yo so do you feel better. What did she say, how did she respond..
Well my texts started at 4:30 am yesterday and to respect Mr. Bryant's policies around here I better save it for the Patreon.

She basically let me rant like a crazy person.  My best friend threatened to come over and KO me if I attempted any more contact for the time being.  Apparently I have a temper and was holding a lot back.

She made the mistake of entering my private domicile when I specifically asked her not too.  Then I started getting conflicting information from her and my best friend about where certain things were in my house.  I'm one of those nuts that keeps a small armory in their bedroom and if I ever feel violated or betrayed.....things don't end well.....

It ended with that she was going to "disregard all the mean things I had said" and my response was "Well, you did a pretty good job disregarding me being in love with you for the last year, so I'm pretty sure you can handle a day in the other hand."

Crying while cutting hair with your mask on probably sucks, but I had previously ended every encounter with "wish you the best!", yesterday I was using different 4 letter words...

A week before this all happened, she had texted me late one night saying "I was the love of her life, and the one that got away."

Then why did you say I do to flipplin' Keith last month if you were still in love with someone that was in love with you?   Dummy.

I refuse to learn anything about "Keith", as far as I'm concerned, it would be in his best interest to not be a character in my story.

Sorry for cluttering the gambling thread.  If I post outside of here, it never goes well for me.   :lmao:

I'll take no for 5 units.

People wrestling with their conscious look down and to the right.  When Blaine looks down he is deciding what fake information he is gonna sub in for the real story.  People on mushrooms are removed from that ego and will either make eye contact to drift off to the left.

That dice story is awesome though!  and that trick at the end, I'm stumped.

Trying to do my fantasy draft order and looking for an app

We do the draft order based off of where you finished last year.  I usually use pieces paper put them all in a cup and draw them out, whoever gets picked first I then take all their pieces of paper out and re-draw for 2nd pick.  (so the guys who finished last gets 12 pieces of paper, and the guy who finished 1st gets one piece of paper)

Anyways not at work and dont want to go through all that hassle as usually a few of us get together and do it.  Anyone know of online app or calculator that would do something like this.

Looks like both of these allow you to enter email addresses so your leaguemates can be sure that there were not any shenanigans.

i copied the link and can send it.. Pretty cool with music and everything
I gave up commish duties in our 20+ year friend's league a few years ago, but I always kind of felt cruddy about the draft lotteries where I didn't end up with last pick.

Now I'm free to gloat when I draw that ace of hearts for #1 pick!

 
update:  

So the 16 broken ribs and broken left scapula wouldn't even keep me from answering the bell for round 2.

Stomach staples are obnoxious and I'm more than a little sqeamish about them.  I still haven't even looked down at them and keep them covered with gauze and a girdle 24/7.  I made my parents remove the bathroom mirrors so I dont even catch a glimpse when I get hosed down in the shower at night.

This catheter is starting to get to me and I'm taking about 4mg of xanax a day to try to not think about it.  Hopefully that and the staples come out September 1st.

The broken pelvis ain't so bad as long as I remember not to attempt to twist, I can get around with a walker and I can stand up straight without the walker no problem.  I've listed myself as 6'2" my entire adult life but now I'm ringing it at a solid 6'3" so I'm definitely not complaining about that.  

Besides catheter I'm still experiencing a pretty good amount of pain going down my L5 nerve group that runs from my broken pelvis down the outside of my left thigh and calf and then across the top of my foot to my big toe.  Everything below the calf is still pretty constant pins and needles.  I can lower all my left toes down but I can't raise my big toe up until it subsides.

As far as the pain meds, I think I've only had to take 3 5mg oxy's this week, usually when I get myself stuck in a recliner.  I've been continue to substitute my scheduled tramadol for THC edibles or just going without.  On just scheduled OTC tylenol for the pain and am taking gabapentin for the nerve pain.

I'm willing to bet I'm back running insurance appointments by this time next month.  These German/Norwegian genetics I got pulsing through my veins are no joke.

Now the bad news for the thread.  I went 0-2 last night trying to bet Bellator and I don't see any plays glaring at me on this UFC card tonight.  I am gonna do my best to do a watch along stream, I ended up doing all my annual insurance certifications all week instead of setting myself up to stream, but I do have some buddies coming over today to visit that should be able to help me get set up.

Thank you for all of the support fellas!  The man or beast that kills ol' hooter hasn't been born yet, and his momma is already dead.

:boxing:

 
Probably super square, but I'm just not sure what circumstances in these NBA series would cause a difference in what seem like consistent outcomes.

Heat and Rockets ats, Blazers/Lakers under.

 
hubbards a #####
yeah and Villanueva lost to some dude named the Beverly Hills Ninja that has a win against a guy 0-22 on his "undefeated" record.

Maybe I should stick to main events....pretty sure I've been hitting them at like 80% last 2 years or something unreal.  My record keeping sucks, all I know is my friends aren't broke.

Sorry about the live stream last night, I just about had everything ready to go on youtube and then I went through an extesesential crisis with my catheter shortly thereafter.

8 more days with this thing.....good lord.
