Ah, yeah Menz has some great products. I really like Power Finish... so much versatility with a combination of pads at your disposal.

So, some of you guys who've known me a long time know that I've been suffering from Ulcerative Colitis for 2.5 years now.

Every 5 weeks since December 2008, i got to walnut creek kaiser to get an infusion of a medication which shuts off my immune system (each infusion takes about 3 hours). Those infusions have stopped working in the last few months, and my final option is surgery.

I'm getting my first surgery on thursday June 3rd, which is in a few weeks, and I'll be at Antioch kaiser for 7 days....
i'll be getting an illiostomy and jpouch.
after the jpouch heals for 3 months, i'll get a 2nd surgery to get the illiostomy removed.
if you don't know what all that is, here is a guys blog with info http://ucstory.wordpress.com/surgery-1/


each year, i do fund raising and 5K walks for different organizations, but this year i'm also doing a walk for Crohns and Colitis since that is what i'm affected by.
i did fund raising and the walk for March of Dimes a few weeks ago, and was a volunteer at the National Brain Tumor walk the following weekend.

Here is a link to my personal donation page for the walk
http://online.ccfa.org/goto/SubyJeff


Only 6 days left till the walk. I've raised $925 online so far!



*****It would be a great honor to have my friends and colleagues at the walk with me, and the walk is FREE!!!!!!!!!! Walk registration is at 5pm (FOR ME), but the actual walk starts at 6pm. It's only a 5K, which is 3.1 miles, and takes about 45 minutes or so. Family, pets, etc. are welcome!
The walk is in San Jose this Saturday night
here is the information http://online.ccfa.org/site/TR?fr_id=1784&pg=entry

Please let me know if you plan on coming to support me at the walk!

I work for two Search and Rescue agencies and dedicate a lot of my time to training as well as being on emergency searches for missing persons. I've even been seen on the news a bunch of times (was on the news again last week! see my post above!)

Thanks all!

I find it funny how he generalizes Acura CL owners or other vehicles in general when in fact it's the drivers that are the problem. I also find there are douchebags that drive Subarus as well, and not just Acura CLs.

exactly

douchebags drive every car out there. it's the PEOPLE that are to blame, not the entire series of cars or a brand
