Chalking Up Week 2 Stats

Hello good people. All is well in the Butler camp. Obtained some quality "chill-out" meds for the Padre to combat the night time side effects of the steroid. The Doc kept the scrip pretty mild so Poppa T is not all foggy brained and doped up. Just helps take the edge off the 'roids so dad can get a good nights rest and recoup for the ensuing day's battle. He is in high spirits and tackling this thing head on. It is actually pretty impressive to see, I think we could all take a page out of Big T's book on perspective. I have added a link to the LiveStrong.org website created by Lance Armstrong. There is a wealth of good info on that site and his is a pretty incouraging tale. I would like to place an emphasis on positive attitudes and emotional fortitude and how important that is for combatting this whole mess. I can't imagine any in this group breaking down and crying during a flat-tire episode, you simply get the jack, the spare and start cranking. Pop has his jack and spare in hand, we all need to start "cranking" together. Positve stories, motorcycles, stone yards, RVs, LSU football, old memories, helicopters and the like. Keep it positive. It is contagious and negativeism will be stamped out in the fashion of Brad Pitt's new movie "Inglorious Bastards".... because "we are in the tumor killin bid'ness and bid'ness is good!------ Much Love, Jr.
