Hope the Godfather is resting and doing well.  He will be shown little mercy from the Swafford twins upon his return home.  Anyway, what I want to know is, like Zen, what hospital is he in/ visitation status .  And, second, has he managed to figure out how to hike the gowns up using nothing but his wrists too?  Hee Hee, just kidding.......no, seriously, has he?
Get well godfather, I'll go one further than Scott and extend lending a helping hand to sanding on the Allison.  You've got to have your priorities afterall.  That thing needs to be on the road.  Oh, and if the Dasher doesn't sell, I'm not towing it up the mountain, so I'll drop it off at your place, David.  (Scott already offered to help)
Get well, get back in the fun, DJ

Hi, guys,
I love all the replies!!!  He is going well and is in Erlanger in the CSICU.  Monday they will decide when and if to put in a pacemaker, so don't know at this point just when.  Visitation in the ICU is 10 a.m., 4 p.m., and 8:30 p.m.  You might want to call and make sure he's still in that ICU.  Hopefully, after they put a pacemaker in, he will get moved to a room.  I'll let you know what number if that happens.  Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers and yard art!!!

Darn,I got all happy when I saw him signed in! Pacemaker,I thought they were adjusting a valve now they went and gave hin some new fangled electronic ignition? I knew he was gettin upgrades. :lol: Maybe we can arrange a visit to make sure they don't install anything else,I know how he is about keepin stuff original. He's not gonna be happy with this. 8) I'd send flowers but he might eat em or beat the nurse with them.

I agree, Scott... I think we should have talked the doctors into putting in some chrome plated stuff with the EMPI logo on them in there while they were working on him.  Now that would have given us some good material to work with.
