I had my annual physical on Monday. All of the various tests that they do on 71-year-old guys came back with everything within normal range, so I went out and shoveled the snow off the driveway and sidewalks. Then I resolved to be here to see Donald Trump drummed out of office.
I'll also still be on DU, posting OPs to annoy some. I may even live long enough to win one of those annual awards from one of those right-wing sites that are dedicated to stalking DUers.
Creaking onward and upward....I remain,

Within normal range at our age is heart warming. Like your style.
