Wednesday I go in for the first operation to reconstruct my lower jaw, they plan to go in through my neck and instal a titanium plate to stabilize the jaw and in a few more weeks go in again and graft bone from my hip, sounds like more fun that the law ought to allow!

Flood warnings and evacuations are occurring in my area, rain of a foot or more per day for the last few days has closed schools and isolated people stranded on high ground surrounded by low areas. Not mush danger of being swept away, doesn't work that way in the swamp, lol. The drainage ditches near me are still functional but no tell how long they will be. We missed out on the hurricane and got flooded out by rain!

Well 2 months so far of intense bone pain, good new is that it isn't cancer but the bad news is that I have to have an antibiotic diffusion every day at the hospital at 07:00 for the next 8 weeks, I had one of these put in yesterday and I have two diffusions behind me... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripherally_inserted_central_catheter

More bad news today, surgery will have to be done, doc is predicting a titanium jaw implant, at least I'll be fun in airports. Doc said i am looking at months maybe more than a year so get this settled. I am not sure how to proceed, not used to this much uncertainty for such an extended time frame.

“Many religions now come before us with ingratiating smirks and outspread hands, like an unctuous merchant in a bazaar. They offer consolation and solidarity and uplift, competing as they do in a marketplace. But we have a right to remember how barbarically they behaved when they were strong and were making an offer that people could not refuse.” ― Christopher Hitchens

We almost made it as a species, almost managed to actually be civilized, I'd like to think a few pockets of our species made it to threshold of being civilized beings but it hardly matters now. The downhill slide back to something ever more distant from civilization might be slow but i doubt it, I am probably too old to see the slide pick up too much speed but the curve has begun it's unstoppable downward turn. There were a few rays of hope, the enlightenment being the brightest...

My dog found an opossum last night, it was a small one and the dog just pushed it around with his nose while barking like he was going to go crazy. I pulled the dog off the opossum and the opossum's look was classic, he was dazed and didn't know what had happened, he looked like a drunk who just woke up in the middle of the road.It was so funny..

Going to do some fish collecting in the foot hills of NC this week end, i am stoked!

Sorry guys, it was for science. the point was mostly to take pictures of fish from different water sheds and record the numbers of species and take photos for a book. I did bring back a few specimens from my aquarium. I caught or helped catch several species, including Black banded sunfish. Enneacanthus Chaetodon, Esox niger, Nototrpis chiliticus, Nocomis leptocephalus, A bandeded water snake, a mud turtle, a lesser siren, green newts, a very tiny stinkpot turtle and several other species I...
