  1. Sometimes it wants to feel like a medieval torture device when lock those grey clamps down. There isn't any pain per say, but it's pretty damn tight! There isn't any getting out of it until they let you out. It messed with me psychologically the first couple days. After that, you pretty much make yourself focus on the music they play of your choice and try not to swallow. They start off by taking a fresh xray, about a 3 minute cycle. After that, it's the radiation. Each cycle (I get 3), lasts about a minute and a half, and there's about 2 minutes in between each one. I'm going to bed. Pooped. I decided to mow the front and middle yards after I got home, plus did some planting with Patty. Sleepy time 😓
  2. My "companion" for my treatments...
  3. Check out some of the images at Joe's website of the Spiderman variations and you'll see why Chad says "unusual"....definitely a cool marble šŸ‘
  4. Yay, Happy Friday! Not counting today, I have 18 more treatments left. So far, the only side effects that I have noticed is a rash across my shoulders and at the top of my armpits. I told them in theory that I think the mask is behind this (it actually covers my shoulders also,imagine the villain Juggernaut's helmet if it were a few inches longer). After I examined it more closely on Wednesday, I think it is made from a liquid resin similar to what we use in the molding process while making softball bats. We injected the liquid resin, hot, with a gun by screwing the guns tip into the press the bats were in. This coated the composite material and kevlar. In liquid and solid form, some people had allergic reactions to this resin. These mesh sheets are premade for Gundersen Hospital. At the hospital, they get them really hot to soften them up so they can "mold" it by hand against your face, head, and shoulder areas. If I'm correct, I hope I gave the assist in treating or approaching others before or during their treatments 😊 I'll see if I can snap a picture of mine today after I'm done šŸ‘
  5. Colors look Vitro šŸ˜‰
  6. I agree with Chad...could be a whacked Blended Spiderman or maybe a vari colored Rainbow....quite the striking MK, really like it, Gladys šŸ‘
  7. It could have a shot being Citrus related, either that or a nice Rainbo...absolutely love the second mib! Looking forward to other opinions šŸ˜ŠšŸ‘
  8. My very first Bennington from when I first started collecting 😊
  9. Chicken livers takes me back to when I was a young man in Jacksonville, Florida working for a small privately owned chain of restaurants called Jimmy's Buttermilk Chicken. My favorite side dish was deep fried livers and gizzards. And they used peanut oil in their deep fryers. That combination with a big bowl of creamed peas! YUMMMMMMY!!
  10. Oh, now I see what appears too be some Slags here and there and some Rainbos....
  11. I see a mess of corks, maybe a few popeye's, clearies, swirls....kinda hard to make some of them out but thus far that's all I can gather...
  12. I have always liked it. Best recipe ever was when they used to make everything from scratch down at the local nursing home. My wife and I worked there, myself 8 years and she for 25. This is back in the 90's before they started getting away from homemade (which is sad). Fortunately, we got our hands on the recipe (which I still have), but it's been quite a few years since I've had it myself. With my current condition, I'm not sure what it would taste like, since my taste buds have been so drastically "altered" due to surgery and radiation. But yeah, I'm definitely on board with a big, fat, YUMMY šŸ˜›
  13. I sure like the "chocolate" base with the "vanilla" swirl....jeez it's a hot day and that description just made me think of the "Whippy Dip", an ice cream stand in Decorah,Iowa that serves nothing but soft serve homemade ice cream. I think I'm there šŸ˜›
  14. Whiskers (the Male), is usually more active with the marbles than his mother Baby Girl. There's a whole mess of marbles behind the bathroom door. I guess after I posted my picture this morning Patty said she heard marbles banging off porcelain in the middle of the night, but not sure which one did it. Quite something to bring that many out of the bathroom, that's really swatting them pretty hard!
  15. It's been a while, at least I haven't heard them while I am sleeping, but my foot found out that someone was busy last night...
  16. Ah, the Vikings. I know he never played with them but before he was a player he was one of Minnesota's water boys. One of my prized possessions from my sports cards collection....
  17. Oh yeah, almost forgot...if you happen to be in the neighborhood of Rawlings Sporting Goods, holler at them too keep Miken Sports in the good old US of A. They are based in St. Louis and own Miken....safe trip my friend šŸ‘
  18. I hear ya, they put us in southeast Minnesota under an excessive heat advisory for tommorow this morning! Actual temperature for my little area is forecasted to be at least 95 before factoring in everything else that makes it downright icky 🄵
  19. The marble on the left is indeed awaiting more opinions šŸ‘
  20. Didn't score any marbles on my outing today but couldn't pass up this authentic ET children's belt! Love it and Have a great Marble King Monday šŸ˜ŠšŸ‘½
