The above statement is the brainchild of Bill Engvall,of Blue Collar Comedy Tour. It stand for something so obvious that this is,a correct
answer. One that comes to mind

Pilot: No I'm going to a costume party and I'm,standing here until they,pick me up

Okay,a story from my own family. Cousin Amanda,i s going to have ambulatory,surgery at local hospital. Amanda,is lying,on a gurney in the surgery waiting room, she is in hospital gown, blanket,over,her and an IV started. My cousin , her husband Brendan is sitting next to the bed, holding her good hand. Brendan is on my Daddy s side so he looks nothing like me. The person,he most resembles is Judge Ito of the OJ trial , even had a neatly trimmed goatee. Brendan is one,of the few cousins on that side I can stand, maybe because,he' s only a second cousin and turned out okay. Those of you who have followed my stories know what I think,of my boy first cousins on that side, most need garroting. Relatives on that side didn't like me because I don't resemble them.The majority are brunette and black hair, I'm tall, fair and have strawberry blonde hair & what was worse- the first child born after parents were married more than 9 months. Thought there might be a slight irregularity in my branch,of the family tree. They wanted to worry about that, take good look at Brendan , unless he's a throwback to the Native American blood nobody,admits to, his mama had an oriental friend, Irish name not withstanding.
Anesthesiologist walks into,the area looking,at his clipboard instead of looking up,finally looks at Amanda on the bed in a gown,and Brendan sitting next,to her fully dressed and says " And who will be having surgery this morning?"

I'm pretty sure they teach them that joke in med school.

Probably so, another cousin this one on Mama's side, her hubby pushing her in a wheelchair because she' s SO far,in her labor. Ward clerk looks up at Sarah, panting, blowing and gripping the armrests for dear life and says "And what are we here for today, dearie?"
For an only child I have an exhausting and inexhaustible amount of cousins. A lot of Happy Harry's and Fertile Myrtles in my family 🌳 tree😛

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
