Sad News from Mrs Flottz:: Hubert Flottz is in the Hospital, heart attack
yesterday. On pain pills and ralphing all over the pics of Bush, he is expected to recover. When and how much of a recovery remains to be sen.

Some thoughts for Hubert would be appreciated... he is my cyber partner and has been for almost 4 years. A rascal and quick wit, he made many of us laugh, howl even, with his humor.

20. You'll be home for Christmas, Hubert.
With any luck you'll be able to do everything you want to by the time Inauguration day hits. That includes drink a bit of the "all-kee-hall" and cuss a blue streak...

We miss you horrible bad, and come back to us soon!

25. Of course I send my best wishes
I asked for musical contibutions for the FUNDAY RADIO playlist two years ago, and Hubert sent along a couple of karaoke songs he'd done. They were great! -- the guy has a really good voice and was an ace for sending them all the way from West Virginia, along with apologies for not being able to attend the soiree in person.
Of course we'd played them -- they were too good not to. Mr Flottz is one of the DUers I feel a personal connect with.
John
I've had two heart attacks -- my first (a near-total collapse of my right coronary artery) at 44 and the second (a VERY minor one) two years later. I'm fine now and I sure am hoping that Hubert will be, too. I expect he will -- the doctors can do some amazing stuff nowadays.

39. Please give Hubert my best....
I have missed him lately, he hasn't been around, at least that I have seen.

He always makes me laugh, but is full of insight into the way things are in this benighted country.

Hubert...the best of health to you. And, to Mrs. Hubert, get lots of rest. You will need it.

:hug: to both of you.

I read all of your threads to Hubert. He said to thank you all. He just talked to his Doc and he will be coming home Tuesday or Wednesday.

He said to tell you he thinks George Bush is cooking the food. :puke:

Hubert says to tell you he misses you all.

didn't i read where smoking marijuana was good for getting over heart attacks????

i think some research needs to be done! (no, don't. the good stuff will make you cough and your heart doesn't need the additional stress. at least not right now.)

get will, take care of yourself and come back to us. we'll be sending you good vibes.
