As I approach middle-age, something about spending hours on my butt making a chain go around and around gets more and more appealing...

You should see the other guy...


To be dramatic, I had surgery this morning to remove some cancerous cells from my face.
To play down the drama, the "surgery" took about 20 minutes and a local anesthetic and the "cancer" were just Basal Cell Carcinoma, which are harmless 99.44% of the time. Still, I get some cool stitches, don't you think?
According to my buddy who's in med school, something like 70% of new cancers reported each year are Carcinomas like this. They are caused by being an idiot and refusing to use sunscreen when you are a teenager.
According to the Doc who removed the cells, I waited too long to do something about these and need to be more careful. Will do.
