Word from Redstone
I left a PM for our friend Redstone, being concerned because we'd not seen much from him lately. I don't know if he's suffered yet another trauma but here is what he said:
Still a little whooped up, sore ribs & jaw & another damn hospital visit and all, but getting back though slowly...thanks for your concern, mon frere.
I'll reply to him with news of my latest surgery, which pretty much am ammounts to just a flesh wound - particularly compared to his challenges. I hope that I might some day be manly like Redstone, and just operate on myself.

6. Thank you mucho. Wish him well from free republic
see if he reacts.
Hmmmm.
No mention of conservativecave.
franksolich is starting to suspect that since mentioning "conservativecave" is
verboten on Skins's island, the primitives are now using "freerepublic" as an undercover name for us.

8. OK, more from Redstone!
Lasher: I had another surgery on Friday. They found still-green grass clippings in my wounds, left from the three September operations. Duh. ...and clear indication of a serious infection. There is a chance I could lose my foot now but at least I have what I firmly believe to be a good surgeon. I wish I could have had you doing my initial surgery instead of that dickhead Dr. Bevis.
But what the heck, just a flesh wound.
Redstone: Holy hell! (I had a similar experience: The first surgery I had on my left shoulder was analogous to a frame-off restoration of a car. Because Doctor ****ing Butthead had my arm in the wrong position, I ended up with a damaged suprascapular nerve and unending pain. A second surgery in 2001 did't fix it.)
Losing a FOOT just a flesh wound? You're a better man (or at minimum a tougher one) than I, Gunga Din.

11. Feh. Sutures don't hurt near as much as getting nailed by a fish hook to the flesh, which God knows I've felt way too many times (that's what you get when you specialize in trout fishing, because you're generally stalking the fish on small streams with lots of brushy tangle on the banks).
Thanks for getting the Lounge folks updated.
Yeah, our thanks to the Lasher primitive; we here at "freerepublic" appreciate it.
