Thanks people,

Got home mid-day today. Everything went well. Had to do some additional work while he was in there so that took about an extra hour of surgery.

I'm going to take it easy (as easy as I take anything) and do what they say as far as PT.

The downside is that now I've got all this free time o think about mods.

I still say getting old sucks but it sure beats the hell out of the alternative.

I bet I can beat you in golf now.
Start walking around. I only have 50 days in town before I move to Tampa and I still need help with my front brakes.
