Hey everyone,
Here’s the thread to post fun and postive thoughts for Wally.
If memory serves me correct he is due to go in for heart surgery on the 10th.
Make it good because I want him to print it off and be able to read this while he is recovering.
==========
Wally,
You should receive one of those goofy online greetings cards here’s the address:

\< swaying to and fro from the music \>
Someone make up some lyrics to go with the song?
I hope you are up and about and the SMDB boards soon Wally!

Wally,
I really like you, even though you’re a Canuck.
I hope you get better soon, so that you can go ice fishing before the July thaw.
You’re not a putz.

Wally m’dear, I wuv ya because you are a Canuck. Take care and get better very soon. I’ll say an extra special prayer for you on the 10th.
Remember one thing…for every cute nurse’s butt that you pinch, your heart will be that much stronger 😉

Wally,
What can I say, other than I’ll be thinking of you. You’re my bud.
I expect you to take a laptop into surgery with you, though, so you can tell us what the surgeons actually say, and we can compare it to what we came up with on that thread you started about what you don’t want to hear during surgery. 🙂

I’m sending good vibes your way, bud.
It could always be worse. You could be at the proctologist’s, and hear him say “Look, no hands!”
Let us know how it goes.

All the best, Wally. I hope you’re soon on your feet and back to your usual smartass self.
Wouldn’t it be frightening (for you, that is) if the Toronto dopers showed up at the hospital? 😃

Wally, you know there’s gonna be no trouble… you are all heart, so they won’t have any excuses for not taking care of things.
In any case, with all the positive vibes (which as members of the church of David, we don’t actually believe in) you ought to give those docs a new record in recovery time.

So I open this thread and my wife walks by and says, “What’s the matter?”
Women. What do they know?
Nothing’s the matter. I got something in my eye, that’s all.
I love you guys.

Not to be the bearer of bad news, **Wally** , but I thought you ought to know. We’ve scheduled the long-planned invasion of Canada for while you’re in surgery. When you wake up, you’ll be an American.
Terribly sorry about that, but you know how it is.
## Other than that, all the best and we’ll see you when you get out.

My best wishes, pal;
We’ll keep a place in the hot tub for you!
I’d get in trouble doing it for real, so here’s a virtual buzz of the hospital, with a zoom into a victory roll!

You’ll be back on your feet (and, much more important, back on the board) in no time, I’m sure.
Pinching nurses is not recommended, however; it has been known to cause setbacks in recovery…
Wishing you the best,

Manny sez:
“When you wake up, you’ll be an American.”
Oh yeah? Maybe you haven’t heard, but we got a Hell’s Angels chapter now. They’ll kick your ass back across the pond.
I hope.
It’s for sure our military (:snork:) couldn’t do it.
