Glad you and Linda are still hanging in there, and she’s getting better. Good luck with your upcoming knee replacement surgery. So far all my original parts are working, lol.

As all of you remember I had knee replacement surgery on my right knee a couple years ago. Well, On May 13th, I'm having knee replacement surgery on my left knee. Linda had both hips replaced and just had to have hip revision surgery on the right hip again. That whole hip recall thing you know. She's doing fine though, Walking around with a cane for now but getting better all the time. So we're fighters. Count us down but not out. LOL. ----- Original Message ----- From: peggy bowen To: msb-alumni@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Saturday, April 05, 2014 1:23 PM Subject: [msb-alumni] Re: Band tour. Hi Rich. I hear ya.

Not sure how that was worked out but I got to go. I had Mark Martin for a partner all the times I went. I remember one time we were on the bus and he said here, I have some candy for ya to try. He gave me this wafer and I asked him what it was. He said just try it it's good. I put it in my mouth and all hell broke loose. Before I knew it I had a mouth full of foam and of course no water. I said what the hell did you give me. While laughing hard he told me it was a fizzy.
