That said, Chuck asked that anyone looking to have a research letter done, please hold off on your request for 4 or 5 days until we can decide how we will proceed with the process. All of Chuck's data is on the second floor. He is going to have a little trouble doing stairs for a while. I can do the letters but they need to be stamped and signed by Chuck. Thanks for your cooperation.

Better yet Mike, you could go over to Chuck’s house and set up a cot for him up on the second floor…
That way there would be almost no interruption in getting our research letters.

Chuck, all kidding aside, we value you as a friend and colleague. I know from the many comments from your fellow members that you are a valued friend. The good vibes from all your Parker friends will see you through this.

Heel quickly and come back to us soon.

[QUOTE=Chuck Bishop;406970] Pain is almost as bad as my last kidney stone [QUOTE]
"Almost"? Ha, I've had 5. The hip replacement was a walk in the park. Ok, so it was a slow walk. You will do fine, you're still young!

Just spoke with Chuck a few minutes ago. He really sounded chipper and alert so the meds must have kicked in!! They’ll decide tomorrow how to proceed on the hip.

Dean, I think we’ll just have Chuck stay in our extra room. No stairs, just dogs. That way he can have the puter and printer by his side at all times. 24/7 just as he likes it. He would get to experience real pot pie, crust on top and bottom. Nix besser Chuck!!
