Beating Duke is always fun, but this was one of the most enjoyable wins I can remember. This North Carolina team has improved a lot since December. Go Heels!
Club Soda has done an excellent job posting the past few days. Hopefully, he can keep it up as my posts will be infrequent over the next two weeks. My darling wife Erin is scheduled for another brain surgery next week at Duke. This will be her third surgery in four years. After surgery we’ll have to decide on some treatment options. The doctors have recommended against treatment, but the tumor keeps growing.
We found out about this latest tumor growth back in July so we’ve had time to digest this, but the upcoming surgery always seemed a long way off. I’m sure everything will be okay and we trust God’s will no matter the outcome. We leave on Sunday and we’re going to spend a couple of days in Charleston before driving to Durham. Her surgery is on Thursday next week. There will be a lot of down time so perhaps I will write about the upcoming election. I’ve been a bit detached from politics, but I’ll be back to plunging in no time.
I’m back! I’ve spent the past two weeks in North Carolina for my wife’s brain surgery. Everything went well, but it’s still a very trying and emotional process. She had the surgery on the 9th and every day has been a challenge. I’m so thankful she’s doing well and hopeful this will put an end to this thing once and for all. We’ll learn more in six weeks.
I can’t say enough about Duke University Hospital. Everyone was nice. I was happy to be back in NC for a few days, but we were both ready to get back to Florida. Two weeks away from home and friends is about all we could take.
Meanwhile, The Daily Plunge has been lacking any daily activity. So much has happened the past two weeks… Obama gave a speech that will only be remembered for Joe Wilson. Alas, it’s a different Joe Wilson. Whatever happened to “speaking truth to power?”
In less than a year the left has turned a complete 180. Protests used to be grassroots uprisings against the government. Now they’re characterized as angry racist mobs more concerned about the color of the president’s skin than the content of his proposals.
What else have I learned? Cable news really is horrendous. Fox and MSNBC are almost unwatchable. I’m not sure how anyone can complain about Fox. MSNBC has thrown objectivity completely out the window. MSNBC’s coverage of the ACORN incident is hilarious.
Speaking of ACORN, who would have believed it was criminal institution? Who saw that coming? I jest of course. It’s amazing that the press had to be dragged kicking and screaming to cover the story. I gripe a lot about the mainstream press, but the great thing about the Information Age is that real journalism still exists.
