A Brief Explanation

Location: Dowell, Illinois, US
Birthday: July 15

Bio: born in Illinois. 5 year Navy veteran. Married for 25 years (not counting the first five when we just cohabited. 4 kids, 6 grandkids, 3 brothers 2 living, 2 sisters 1 living, a mother living, a father not living. 1 dog a labradoodle, and a current cat population of 9 (I'm working on that number) I've done a lot of jobs in my life, from shill at a carnival burlesque show to making medium caliber ammunition. I built inkjet printers, embedded computer boards, restored and repaired both cars, motorcycles and electronics. I read, write, and do arithmetic (albeit poorly) My wife claims that I have more useless knowledge than anyone on earth and resultingly no one will play trivial pursuit with me anymore. I do play pinohcle but due to my inability to cheat I don't win very often. Recently disabled I turned to Open Salon to re-engage my writing bug. Update, cat population now at 3. homes found for kittens. Update two add one cocker spaniel to the list and maybe just shoot me.

Some may have noticed, been concerned, ovejoyed that my presence is diminished. The reason is a bout of rheumatoid arthritis, newly diagnosed that has left me feeling as though my joints are full of cayenne pepper and ground glass. There are many topics that I wanted to weigh in on but have not been physically able to do.

So, I would like to try it musically and let you all try to figure out which threads I am responding to.

Well and thoroughly confused? The themes are really obvious once you latch on to them. Enjoy!

It is not fair that you have another illness.
My brother just came down with RA too. He was super fit and athletic, and he was quite depressed. But now he has kind of accepted it.

Sorry to hear about the RA. I won't be able to figure out your puzzle, you're a little deep for me, sometimes, but it is a good playlist. And you read people I don't. I hope you get this new situation figured out soon.
