I'm scheduled for spinal surgery on Monday. I know everyone is different, but I'd love to hear from someone who's had a similar operation (Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion on C5-7) and what recovery looked like for an active 50yr old. Thanks.
Today’s Belgian GP reminds me of the North Face EC in 2012. Big ol’ sloppy mess. If you were there you remember. 🌧️🌧️🌧️

I have a dream…where one school district’s fingerprints can be used for another district’s. I have a dream…where I don’t have to create a new account each year for a new sports clearance form. I have a dream…where one background check will be good for work AND volunteering.

Big news on today's Supreme Court order list: The justices will hear two cases next term on whether states may exclude transgender athletes from girls’ and women’s teams based on the sex they were assigned at birth. supremecourt.gov/orders/courtor…
Serious question: How do you spell the shortened version of the word “casual”?
This is a simple 80-20 issue. Come on @CIFState.
CIF, we warned you. Title IX is law. GIRLS lost spots, safety, & locker room privacy to MALES. Now they’re speaking out! The U.S. Dept. of Ed is speaking out. The entire nation is watching. @CIFState, it’s time to Save Girls' Sports. XXonly.org
When the doc asks how bad the pain is, I’ve got a few reference points for the 1-10 scale: 10: Eight mm kidney stone lodged in my ureter. (URP listeners may recall the episode where I told the whole story. I can’t imagine a pain worse than that.) 9: Testicular torsion left…
