Friday evening drinking thread

Submitted by sadeto on
I'd like to welcome Wayne Lyons' mom to the UM community by raising a glass of Sixpoint Hi Res double IPA from Brooklyn, NY to her. Welcome, mom, can't wait to see your son demonstrate excellence on the field and in the classroom at our fine institution. What are you drinking?

Had my colonoscopy this afternoon. (really)
Gonna be on the sidelines tonight drinking-wise. I will however, drink vicariously through my fellow MGo Bloggers

Ever wonder what goes on during your colonoscopy while you're asleep? I do. WTF do they talk about? Here's hoping you get a clean bill of health and enjoy the seemingly unceasing passing of gas that ensues.

Last April, a patient in Virginia sued his doctors for comments made about him while he was undergoing a colonoscopy.  From the article:

"Some members reportedly joke about a rash on DB’s penis and how he looks like he has syphilis. Ingham, who comes off particularly badly, is quoted as saying 'It’s probably tuberculosis in the penis, so you’ll be all right.'"

"In addition to ridiculing his alma mater of Mary Washington College, she is quoted as saying more menacing things about firing a gun up his rectum and suggesting that they falsely note on his chart that he had hemorrhoids."

So it's probably something like that.

People who work in the medical field tend to have a sick sense of humor. (Which I'm ok with). But just imagine if your job is to shove a camera up people's asses day in and day out.

When I was younger I had a job cleaning up after surgeries and let me tell you, you see some messed up shit. A total knee replacement sounds more like a construction yard than a surgery suit. I don't know where I'm trying to go with this post because the Captain is running strong tonight, but F that dude for trying to sue people who are trying to help figure out what is medically wrong with him.

Corona on the deck of our room in Cabo.

Sun about to set. 75 degrees. Shorts and tshirt. Waves crashing. Dinner at 8. Fire pit on the beach at 10.

Admire my Stones.

Having a little Blue Moon after shoveling away all the ice that the city plowed into my driveway. For a reason I cannot comprehend apparently, they mock my obsessive attempts to keep my driveway clear. In any case, a combination of sports and episodes of "Broadchurch" will probably round out the evening.

Stone Smoked Vanilla Bean porter for a cold night in Maryland.

Will be in the 50s this weekend though.  Outdoor brunches with the pooch somewhere in Maryland! (Annapolis, Bethesda, Frederick)
