Hi – this is Marcia, Gary’s sister-in-law. While he is off having fun in the hospital in a few weeks, I have been asked to be a guest blogger – in other words to post to this blog to keep all of you updated on his progress.
Today’s post is a test to see if I am technically capable of handling the task. If I pass, I will start the process of hiring a comedian to ghostwrite the posts so they can perhaps be as hilarious as Gary’s. I hoping for one of the writers from The Big Bang Theory, but we will see.
If there is news to post while I’m at the hospital with Anne, we will flag down a southbound carrier pigeon and send word to my daughter and Gary’s niece, Jennifer. She will then post the update, perhaps even from her iPhone.
Gary has been such a trooper through all this. I am optimistic that I will have good things to report.
Hi Marcia!! Hope to meet you again soon. 🙂 It’s been about 45 years, huh? I’m sure you’ll do just fine as guest blogger.
Looks like you’re technologically up to the task, especially with art!
Linda – Yes, 45 years or so has been a bit too long. Hope to see you soon.
Judy – I will see you soon!
Gary is a hard act to follow. His sense of humor can be even harder to follow depending on how warped your mind and/or sense of humor happens to be.

Luckily, Marcia, this means that your audience can adapt to a wide assortment of blogs from the mundane to the insane.

I prefer the insane. Often, my mind functions best in a state of complete chaos.

Welcome on board! 🙂
Hi Gary,
I hope to see you at the pool this week. I will swim the same old m-w-f days, but how about you?
Your situation sounds very promising!
JOHN
I plan on doing my regular 40 minute swim on Monday. I stacked a chord of firewood this weekend and got in some other exercise as well. I am feeling stronger all the time and will be ready for the surgery when the time comes. See you on Monday.
Hi,
A message to all reading this.I swim with a few friends and Gary at the local pool. I bought a get well card, but do not know where to mail it.I can send it to his house or the hospital. Can anyone help me?
My phone is 503-244-7692 or e- mail johnmclane@comcast.net
Thanks a lot
JOHN Mc lane
