I found out this morning that one of my Colorado buddy’s wife died last night after battling cancer for six years. Three kids, married 29 years, 56 years young.

I’m meant 35 yrs worked not age. He is currently 52.

We are at a place financially he could retire now, trying to max out pension/lump sum which occurs at 35 years.

He is off SWAT now and a major over the detectives division. Pretty safe job title now.

My job is more Dangerous the days I work downtown.

Damn right. I can retire in a year and a half, but have been thinking of staying on at least another year as my TSP grows. Gonna have to rethink that.

I have a good friend of mine I was drinking beers with one afternoon after playing golf. He is going to show me a picture of his Porsche that hasn't seen the light of day in a several years. And as he is scrolling through his phone I thought I saw a picture of him slow dancing with Nancy Pelosi! I said wow! Go back a few frames. So he scrolls back to a picture of him slow dancing with the lady that I swear is the Nancy Pelosi. I said Da Fuq? That looks like you are slow dancing with Nancy Pelosi! (My friend is a strong conservative Republican and does very well) He says, well that is because it is. I said Da Fuq? He says she came over to ask me to dance, and I couldn't say no to her! Da Fuq? I said where in the hell were you that hag would be at? He said it was at his business partners 90th birthday in San Francisco (my friend is in his fifties and lives in OKC, but his partner lived in San Fran). Nancy was a friend of his business partner. I still give him sh!t everytime about dancing with Nancy everytime I see him.

Is there nausea with the dizziness?

Have you been exposed to Monk in the last 14 days?


Try the Epley's maneuver, may help: note, if you can not determine a "side" causing issue, reverse and do the same on the other side. Tons of videos on youtube on how to do this at home. Only helpful if inner ear is etiology.
Da Fuq kind of questions are those?

That doesn't make sense to me! He plays golf!

My condolences. Trust me, I know how you feel. I have lived through my share of people passing too young.

Had to fix my kid's car when I got home from work today. She called me when I was in Daytona complaining that the A/C was blowing hot on the driver's side. I was lucky enough to be able to unstick the blend door my moving the temp setting from crazy high to crazy low.

Yes sir, you are correct.
Been looking for forever houses to get out of here ASAP.
I’ve been burnt out for years and men in my family die really young.

I figure I have less than 20 years of viable life and that short of a time will go by in an instant.
