Location: Brookfield, WI | I was wondering if anybody has any information on how his heart procedure went? I don't know him personally, but have greatly enjoyed the ridiculous banter he and I have engaged in over the last few weeks. He's a great guy.
I understand medical issues can be sensitive, and hope I'm not being rude.
Thanks,
Kevin
Sponge improves the plan.

| GLAD to be home! Thanks dude, and please accept our SINCERE gratefulness for yer prayers and well wishes; I can honestly say that having read yer thoughts Thursday night gave me a lift and peace that can't be expressed. There was 99% blockage in me right coronary that the doc was able to stent, so in a week or so I should be able to resume a more regular schedule. Dropped the 'rettes back in November, but I guess years of Velveeta sammiches, Pay Days, and various other pogy baitage finally took their toll. I will be grazing more for sure, and slowing down on the Coke Colas. Again, I can't thank you guys enough, you really did make a difference. If in the future there is anything I/we personally can do for any of you, DO NOT hesitate to ask... |

Location: Stevens Point, WI | Definately gooder news Sponge, never too late to quit smoking it will be the best thing you ever did in your life. I think the Paydays and Coca Cola will be tougher to kick, fortunately there's diet coke. I don't know about diet Paydays though. Glad to see you around these parts again! Heal up my friend!! |

Location: Eagle River, Alaska | Spongedude....I'm so out of touch up here in Alaska....didn't know you were ailing. You need to start eating some of this untainted fish from Alaska...we haven't had time to pollute it yet. Glad your procedure went well. If you ever feel the need for a "painless" root canal you can just fly on up and we'll go salmon fishing after. Be good and don't be such a stranger.....like I am.

| Awesome news dude. Mrs T will be much relieved to hear. She was worrying about ya.
Give yourself some time, make sure you do like the doc says and if you have any worries about something call them and tell them. No time to be a hero. We want you well for the season.

Location: Fonda IA | Glad things are posititve.Soundly silly but may Grandma say her secret to getting back her blood flow is Welchs's dark grape juice,hand full of walnut a day and cherries.Ate every day and she at 86 is getting better everyday.I'am at 35 an I'am already making a part of my daily diet.Does it work? Who knows but worth a try.Blummer |

| Sponge,
Glad to hear you are on the mend. You'd been gone so long, and then back for while, I was shocked to hear you were headed for the knife. Gooder news that you're feeling well enough to post today. Glad to hear you gave up the smokes. It's been 1 year and 2 weeks since me and the Mrs. quit. Ain't had one since, and ain't gonna again. Food never tasted so good, and the outside air up here in Greenville is like heaven! Try Coke Zero. Not the same, but it's as close as it gets. Sorry, but there is no substitute for Pay Days! I have one every great once in a while, just because.
You've got friends. Know that we are keeping you in our thoughts.

Location: Mauston, Wisconsin | Yahoo! Hey Sponger- Just got back from the Madison fishin Expo. Stopped at Burger King on our way out of Madison to chow down-(Maybe I shouldn't have done that either!) was standin' there thinking about you & lookin' at the "Around the world Sponge collection". A little lift of mirth with each one I looked at and read their names, as I thought of you as a representation of each. Stick with it dude- great to have you back!
Best wishes to Mrs. Sponge & the lil' Porous One as I'm sure their very happy things were caught in time & a little cloud has passed.
Have fun!

I just now read about your procedure. WOW, glad to hear all is well. I'll be offering up a prayer for you that the physical healing will continue but, "God, please keep him a little off kilter so we can enjoy his clever perspective on life and family!" 
By the way, Pay Days and Colas are brain food.......! |

Location: Greenfield, WI | Listen Mr. Sponge, I told you that gritts were not ment for human consumption! Look what happened. Thank God that the problem was caught in time!
Now that payday candy bars and diet cola are out are you switching to soy milk and granola bars?
Is the local medicine man recommending that you start an exercising program? If so, you should consider starting slow, such as put a stationary bike or tread mill in the room with you.....Don't get on it, just get used to being in the same room with it! Gradually work your way into sitting or standing on it for a few minutes a day. Within a couple of weeks you should be ready to actually use it!
Great Luck, Sponge!
