I spoke with Dave tonite and he has been moved to a Care facility for rehab..Seems he had a blood clot taken out of his leg and unfortunately cell phone connection was bad. I'm going to see him Tommorrow and bring a few things he requested of me , not like I wanna see the old coot, If anyone feels so inclined..type your well wishes and I will print them before I leave and bring them to him. His spirits seemed fine and he was a bit groggy from pain meds. I will update ya all as I can..First I need to pry any info from Dave......."Best wishes to ya , Bud!"

Dave!
Listen to the Dr's and don't push yourself too hard. I work in a care facility and I know how anxious you are to go home.
Just take care, flirt with the nurses, and get well.
