    Shots are over for my knee so I sit every night with a heat compress on it and sleep with it wrapped in an electric heating pad. It helps a bit. Next winter probably a knee replacement for me

    I really feel for both you guys. I've had my share of health issues but know from seeing my brother how hard it is to get around with bad knees. Really wish you both all the luck with it and Fatboy, you need some Fire Ball Whiskey.

    Here yea go, we can buy it at the liquor store. It will warm you up on cold nights and make you feel good and relaxed at the same time.

    You guys are killin me with this knee talk. Been a rough winter for mine, each year it gets a bit worse. Just had a talk with the doc last Tuesday and got some new anti inflammatory drugs,, been down that road before,, helps but he said all the steps you guys are talking about are inevitable. :(
    On the other subject at hand,, I find the Black Velvet Cinnamon whiskey a bit smoother than the Fireball. :)

    Yes all went very well could not have ask for better & being she has always been My girl that's the song she chose for her & I to dance & the Temptations still sounded good over the D J's computer & his sound system , & those knee shots work like a charm , I'll try to post some pics but that will take a while as my camara took a dump right before the wedding so I have to wait to get them from others who took them

    My daughter got married last summer,, I picked "In My Life" by the Beatles for the father-daughter dance. I also sang a Karaoke version of "I Knew The Bride When She Used to Rock and Roll" . It was a fun night !!

    that's one thing I wouldn't have missed , when my son got married about 9 years ago his father in law just sat there & said he was not dancing his new bride just cried my daughter told me so I took out on the dance floor , at this wedding she told me she would never forget what I did for her on there wedding day , so it was well worth it & something my grandkids will know all about
