The Home Board

Our host and moderator, AKA known as PHPaul has had an attack of malware and has temporarily lost the ability to access this board.
He is working on it. No timetable as yet for his recovery.

So, we are to keep a stiff upper lip and carry on without him for awhile.
If I hear more, I'll pass it on.

You live in a house with 4 women and 1 bathroom, you'd have bad memories of it too ...

I remember the song, but I don't recognize the lyrics.

Brylcreem hair cream. AKA greasy kid stuff. Brings back some old, long repressed memories.

It allowed guys too keep their Ducks Ass (DA) haircuts in place. Think John Travolta in "Grease".

Very sorry to hear that news Jim. There is a chance that the lump isn't cancer, but by all means get it checked out as soon as possible. We've both had our bouts with cancer here and early action can mean everything.

I'll offer my best thoughts and prayers that everything turns out for the best ...

My deepest sympathies for your loss.
