A humble CAPTIONer wishes to thank DUer's for your good wishes prior to surgery.



Last Friday I underwent quadruple heart bypass surgery.

I'm feeling great now and back at the CAPIONing table.

Thanks you, DUer's, for your good wishes, observations, and support before the operation!

You are the best.

I'll post who I think in a minute, but wanted to give others the chance to try to see it first.

A hint: on a popular tv show from the 80's

On right: He was Larry, this was his brother Daryl, and this was his other brother Daryl.

Maybe it's just me

Tell us some of your hippie stories.
You look familiar. Did you attend Berkley back then?

Jailed in Chicago August '68. In San Francisco in late 60's.

Disputed Ken Starr's "Talking Points" in 1998. Made national news and slowed down that lynch mob.

Poet since 1969.

Etc.

I believe the Vietnam War lit a generation on fire. We damn well knew we'd been had, and stood up to those that lit the match. And we're still here tearing down the establishment.
Sorry about those arrests but I'm guessing you made your point.
So it was YOU that battled Ken Starr's Talking Points.
Thank You for your dedication & after all that, it's good to care for yourself.
Speedy recovery to you.

The republican clown car should provide lots of caption moments!

Sending good vibes for a speedy recovery!
