Well, they got me back up. Now lots of hydrocodone and the couch. I'm already bored.

I need to find a couple good shows to binge watch.

I'm not touching you..) on my way to Glacier National Park in Montana from NYC. We actually had to stop for fuel in Minnesota because I fly a small 6 passenger jet lol. Anyway, it was worth it, check out the view over the Rockies in Northern Montana! Lots of people are flying private now trying to avoid the airlines. I guess I'm these times it's good to be busy.

Let me know if you need someone to carry your flight bag!

I'm glad your operation was a success -

Now TAKE IT EASY!

(remember my story I told about my operation and DIDN'T take it easy - )

9 episodes. Nice. That should keep me busy for a day.

Anyone else?

Radio recordings of The Goon Show.

Should last you a month or so, 2 to 3 shows a day.
You can do it with your eyes closed too.

Tons of other stuff on Archive.org as well.

Night Vale on podcast. Puts me to sleep, but fun and funny on a Lovecraftian sense.

same. my town is usually pretty bad but this year I literally do not know how people bought so many fireworks. it sounded like a constant stream from 9PM to 1AM with scattered ones until 2

How did you leave? Did you still technically get into Canada to turn around?

As already recommended Space Force is worth a watch but that's barely half a day.

Here's some that you may not have seen that will keep you busy for weeks. They are available (or at least were) on Netflix or Amazon:

Doc Martin
Midsomer Murders
Silent Witness
Dr. Blake Mysteries

If you like Silent Witness you may also wish to watch Prime Suspect with Helen Mirren. It's dated by todays standards but still very good for the period.
For something a little newer there is Top of the Lake and Top of the Lake; China Girl starring Elisabeth Moss.

Prime Suspect is on our "to watch" list. Have to add Top of the Lake.

Yes, I had to go to the Canadian Side and go through immigration. They denied me entry for not having the proper identification. The lady was really nice and said it happens a dozen times a day because the US side is not well marked, she was just happy it wasn't a family in a mini van. The US side was much tougher to get back through though judging by the ages of the boarder agents it looks like one older guy was training them so they ran me through the whole gamut of interview and inspecting my rental car.

This was at Port Huron, MI in 09'. I didn't have a smart phone or GPS. I was going to get on the highway back to my hotel. The left turn onto the on ramp had a divider, one side went onto the highway, the other side went to Canada
