Thanks for the prayers dustbuster, they're always appreciated. Ugly, sorry to hear about your sister. See that's the problem with my daughters case, they are having a hard time identifying the exact type it is. When I was a kid my uncle died of a sarcoma near his spine. Cancer runs deep in my immediate family, its taken 7 already, and all different types to. So needless to say this is scary stuff. Now vandy wants to just go in and remove it, but also a good portion of her muscle and tissue along with it. Only good news right now is it was caught very early and the oncologist said it seems to be slow moving. So he said for us to get a few opinions if we wanted. The nerve racking part is waiting. Thanks again for the thoughts and prayers.

Just found out a few weeks ago that my little girl has a sarcoma on her leg. From what I know they are a rare form of cancerous tumor. At the moment she is being treated by Vanderbilt pediatrics oncology unit. We are currently awaiting a second opinion on a course of action. I'm curious to know if anyone on TGO has ever had a family member that has been treated for any type of sarcoma?

First thing that came to mind was ringtoss. LolGlad it wasn't a doughnut shop. You don't want to see where he'd store them while driving.

That's funny. My last name is Alfano, and I can't tell you how many times its been asked if it was Hispanic. I just laugh. One job actually had my supervisor give me a handbook and when I opened it it was all Spanish. I asked my supervisor if he was serious, and he laughed and said I guess they thought you were Spanish. Its been misspelled as alfaro and I've even been called Alfredo. But yeah I know how you feel. And ill leave the pizza subject alone. LolYou be surprised how much I get to witness my last name being butchered and be considered a hispanic because of it. Thats probably the reason I still dont go and get a carry permit. I would be thinning out the herd of all the idiots and bigots. But it would be considered mass murder by the media and would cast another evil shadow on firearms. So I will settle with trying to end them with a single well placed punch.

I can listen to just about any music out there. Except stuff from the 1920's era. My Great Grandfather tortured me with that stuff every time we were together. I loved listening to the 50's and 60's music with my Grandmother back in the day. Some of my favorites were Johnny Maestro's sixteen candles, and under the boardwalk by the drifters. I also listened to a lot of hip-hop and rap crap as my father calls it. I have to say though I really love country music the most. Just seems like its music people can connect with. Funny thing is growing up in N.Y. I had no clue what country music was. It's crazy how music can bring up so many different memories from the past.
And to everyone talking about yo gabba gabba, the guy that came up with those characters has a serious perversion. I can't even let my kids watch that show without thinking about it being an adult cartoon. Lol -
Welcome! Damn Yankee! Lol

Im going to stay out of this one. Lmao. I've been here since 98. From staten island myself. Just remember one thing, anything you learned from the north please drop it at the Mason Dixon line. Other than that welcome. Lol
TGO is really a great place. A lot of interesting stuff in this forum. I am curious though, how in the world did you get a carry permit lol.- 1

Again with the Yankees. Lmao.My wife hates grits though. Grandma would make shrimp and grits at get togethers back home, and my wife couldn't choke it down. I think Yankees have a genetic predisposition against grits.Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
I'll admit it. When I first tried grits I really thought someone was trying to feed me sand blasting material. Lol. But with some experimenting and a nice helping of preserves and butter I really came to enjoy them. I've never tried cheese grits but I guess I should because cheese makes everything taste better. I have to vote for cream of wheat though. That's what I grew up eating every winter morning as a kid and I've always liked them.- 1

Thanks for all the timing belt advice. I've done quite a few timing belt/gear/chain jobs in my life, but never fooled with the tdi. I am probably just over thinking on this one but I've been told the tdi is a different beast all together. I ordered the complete timing belt kit from the web and it included all bolts and waterpump but no tools. I also have a mkiv platform jetta. My brother has a mechanic shop so it shouldn't be too bad. Unfortunately he has never worked on a tdi either. I still have to order the tool set for the job. I'd ask to borrow yours but I believe they are different. I have a bew model tdi and I think yours is a alh model. Thanks for all the tips. Btw mine is an auto model and I average 44mpgAh yeah, I bought the parts with the water pump so did that as well.
Don't forget that the mount bolts are stretch and will need replacing (on the mkIV at least)
I think I had to move my front-end forward when I did the AC. That was an interesting job. -
I'm fixing to do my first tdi timing belt job. Any advice lol.Sure is. Mine's up to 235k with minor maintenance.

This is the reason why a couple of years ago I picked up a 2005 tdi jetta. I drive around 75 miles a day round trip for work. My truck was costing me $15 a day in gas. The jetta cost me about $6.50 a day in diesel.

Lmao! I don't even know what to say. I love this damn place!

this is the exact reason I have been with the same woman for 15 years and have not got married. Two kids and fifteen years. Funny thing is were tieing the knot next Saturday. Lol. Wish me luck hahaWith tales of divorce like Marks and others I have heard/read about, it always amazes that more men don't kill their ex-wives. I haven't married yet because I never met a woman I truly trusted and single.

My father got shafted hard from a female judge when my parents got divorced many years ago. He couldn't do anything right in the judges eyes. Yet he did everything by the book, even had a high dollar lawyer. None of that helped. Sorry to hear what your going through Mark. Its a shitty situation. My father swears that if he knew what he did now he would have burned everything, house and all.
Accidentally of course.
Very Nice job on the truck! -
Havn't been in years but, the hard rock hotel and casino has a really nice poker room if your into that kinda stuff.

This is the reason I quit. Whatever it is they added to these cigarettes to make them fire safety made me sick.I started to notice I was getting nauseous after I lit up, especially after I ate. I ignored it for a while but then someone said does the side of the box have a fsc on it, I said yeah. That's when I found out about that by a certain date all cigarettes in TN had to have this. I wrote one of the company's a e-mail and was told nothing added to the cigarette for fsc would be making me sick. That was the last pack I ever picked up. Hell what's the point of smoking a cigarette if you can't enjoy it anymore. If I get a hard craving i pick up a cigar and take a few puffs and im done. That fsc crap was a blessing in disguise for me.Good for you.
I used to smell a cigarette and stil crave them, but I swear the cigs today smell more like ass that tobacco. Must be the crap they put in them to keep them from staying lit.
If I still smoked I'd have to roll my own.
Good luck. -
To be honest I've taken pain meds with and without the acetaminophen, and I never noticed a difference in pain control.

This is just as bad as the man in Florida getting killed over the text message.

I know that guy. I promise you his shots are authentic. And that pistol has alot of money invested in it. The first time I seen him make some of those shots I was blown away.You wouldn't be the only one. He pulls off a lot of amazing shots with a .22, and there is definitely plenty of folks who think he's using some kind of trickery or fancy editing. He's a good 'ol boy from middle Tennessee, so I want to believe him.
