    American riots....

    From AZ - it's a load of crap. Theriots are a group of paid anarchists to bring the media reports for the world. You are talking .00001% of the population. All media hype to burn down and close private businesses. Just a load of crap. But we have our guns loaded for the suckers if they try...

    Hi All, I have just scored a full time job working for IRIS USA Inc - a large plastic company with 3 huge factories in 3 states. So I can settle down now and move into a house with a garage! :) Health is still a worry at times - as we age! But all seems under control now. I will always need to...

    Well finally found this thread. So much has changed on here :) The Wedding in Flagstaff went well on the 22 October with the snow holding off. The 7000 foot made it hard to breath when lugging all the things up 10 flights of stairs though LOL. We had about 15 people around us for a sunset...

    Some good news on the blood test and is <0.03 again. So if I get the same number in the states in October I can go to 6 monthly testing whilst remaining vigilant for any negative signs till the 2 years post op are up. So far so good. :) I will be in Sydney on the 29th and 30th of this month for...

    Well some good news this week with my second blood test coming at less than 0.03!! So still on the way down slowly 3 months after my operation and although not zero going in the right direction at last. If the next 3 month blood test is the same or lower I will not need follow up radiation...

    Lowest VN VIN No. still running

    Wow - a very special car. I'd put money on it as the first production V8 VP for sure. And have to wonder what the Product Development Area did for Holden!!! Have to look into what that division did do with the cars.

    Just a few more things to do on this car - like replace the boot badge and remove the extra s/c badge on the skirt. The fuel sender is sticking so half a tank is NOT half a tank. I get to drive this for a while - maybe 4 months. So it took me 2 years to get this car repaired and registered...

    The doctor visit was not great with my PSA level at 0.04 meaning I could still have some prostate cells making the protein - but not meaning it is cancer. The limit they like to see is 0.02 or less. So it's a 3 month wait to see if it's up or down. I may just go get a check at 6 weeks to see if...

    So a new year starts with me 4 weeks post op and dealing with all the side effects of the removal of the prostate. They took 3 lymph nodes from my left side to test ad the resalts came back clear on them, but the prostate had a large volume of cancer and so they are making me wait until late...

    It's now been a week since my ribs being scanned and no call from the doctors - if it was serious they would have called already (I hope) so maybe I am just fighting cancer on one front for now. It has been 5 health scares in a row one after the other for the past 3 months and not much fun at...

    It's now on the road and working towing a tandem trailer. Only a few issues to cover now - like a few more of the instruments and door trims. Bit of flooring to cover - but may go for rubber mats on black paint floor. :)

    Booked in for a CT scan of my no 6 and 8 rib on 14th July as the hip scan showed 2 issues there that need to be cleared. The hip issue is said to be a bone island and if no change will be left alone. Now the ribs.... need some luck now. Double 6 thanks. :)

    Have you run a Tech 2 over it - it can give codes to indicate what is not working correctly. The Chains issue has a specific code for left and right banks.

    The visit to the nurse looking after my case - prep for surgery in a few months time turned out to be very helpful.

    Sadly the MRI has upgraded the cancer to Gleeson 8 and aggressive growth, so out it comes in 4 months ... IF the bone scan I have to have is cancer free. The MRI has an issue with a bone. If the scan shows bone cancer the operation changes to getting it zapped. So either way some action coming...
