    Your Dad seems like he was a cool dude. --I have had BOTH my knees done and I feel like the 6 Million Dollar Woman. The only down side is setting off the alarm at the airport going through security! Always get the pat down even though I TELL them I have titanium knees!

    I rarely have trouble with my knees, but the left one was a bit stiff last night at work

    I’m off tonight so it can rest, should be OK by Friday night

    I hope

    I drove their cart around when I had my knee replaced too. They really need a backup alarm. Too many people walked behind me right before I needed to back up. BANG!

    Go Lennie’s dad! I had to use the one at Costco once. We were all the way across the warehouse when the thing suddenly refused to go. The indicator said the battery was fine. Huh. My husband went off to find the manager, and the guy (eventually) came over, took in the scene, and pronounced the diagnosis: Lady, you weigh too little. It thinks nobody’s on it and it’s thrown the deadman switch. Pile your purse and a 20 lb bag of rice on your lap and it’ll go. (Me: purse yes, rice, NO), but we did stack stuff around me on the seat and he was right, it fired right up. The kicker is I just look smaller sitting down. Pretty average, actually.
