One-eyed Jack on the mend

Thanks to:

-- Robert, seen here at my bedside, I'm getting excellent nursing care. We went to a great little Greek restaurant in Tarpon Springs to celebrate Eye One with a bottle of the Pelopponese version of cabernet.

-- The terrific staff at the eye institute, I didn't require more than a quart of sedatives.

-- Our friend Gene's Ray-Bans, which he left behind at the farm July 4, I have a great pair of non-prescription dark glasses. They'll be waiting for him in Key West.

-- Modern plastics, I can see light and hue out my right eye I hadn't seen in years.

-- The operation on the left eye, coming this morning, I probably won't be able to type for a few days. But when I do . . . it will be in living color.

Well, the jumper is a bit short, but if ya got legs like that Ro, why not show'em off.

And John, don't be surprised by the colors in the KW house. They might be just a tad more brilliant than you remember.

Don't forget....."The future's so bright, you gotta wear shades!"
