Guest guest Posted July 27, 2005 Report Share Posted July 27, 2005 --Caboose, Isn't it funny how things work out that way? I just flew into Reagan about 3 weeks ago! What hospital did you have your surgery at? I am having mine at the Greater Baltimore Medical Center - My doctor's office is in Baltimore. Well, as I have been dealing with surgery stuff ALL morning and have been doing no work, I probably should get back to working! Talk to you later!
