What would you do with one more year. Stu made up some bull shit answers but Regina said she would learn to drive( so she could shop) But I think that was a good answer.
I would do everything I could for my wife and kids. It would be the best year for them. I also would not tell them I was dieing. I would make the time count.
What would you do?

Nice Topic!
Fat Would First "Put All His Affairs In Order", So That There Was No Mess Left To Be Handled. Everything Would Be Nicely In Place For His Survivors.
Then He Would Start Smoking And Chewing Tobacco Again, As He Misses Both Of These Very Much.
He Would Have All His Telephones Disconnected.
He Would Eat Birthday Cake, Brownies, And Candy Bars...Almost Exclusively.
He Would Start Smoking Pot Again After Many, Many Years Of Not.
He Would Sit Out On The Deck With All His Old Albums Playing, And Just Stare At The World.
Man, This Makes Fat Wish He Had Just One Year Left!!

Fat I for one am glad you have more time with us. I would also make sure no one was left with any financial mess. Thanks I forgot.

It's Monday.
I would sell everything I own and move to a nudist colony, where I could live out my dream of never having to wear pants again.

Does that mean sweatpants too - would you completely give up on pants?

I'd start by filling out ALL of those god damned per-approved credit card applications I get and I'd spend a lot of time close to a beach with family and friends.

Everything would be swinging in the breeze.

I realize that but it was a great topic and wanted to discuss it.
Plus there were not a lot of listeners.

Drugs, travel, hookers, credit cards. And in the last hour, choke a white man to death.

i did not give bullshit answers. i said i wasnt sure what i would do. i guess i would travel and after each trip come home and share what i had seen with my family and friends. i do think regina's answer of learning to drive is a great one since she would be conquering a major fear in her life and get to experience that feeling of independence that i felt when i first got my license.
(reilly, i wouldnt stop posting for a second either.)
thanks clints for bringing this up, there was a good reason why i brought it up too. On Friday we found out that my Dad has cancerous tumors in his lungs from the NAPALM and agent orange he was exposed to during his 3 tours in Vietnam and has less than a year to go. For him, he wants to live in Florida and ride his motorcycle everyday till he goes. it is the main reason that my parents are moving. i didnt mention this because on the air because we are not supposed to know and by talking about it with all of you, i was letting him know that i know without telling him that i know. nothing i like more than not dealing with feelings.

First off, let me say how incredibly sorry I am to hear about your dad, brother. Very sad news indeed. All my best to you and your family during this difficult time.
I did want to mention, though, that my friend's dad (also a Vietnam vet) suffered the very same fate a couple of years ago. The cancer started in his lungs and then spread to his brain. It took some battling, but his mother was finally able to convince the Veteran's Administration that his cancer was indeed related to his exposure to Napalm and Agent Orange. They paid for the medical bills and his funeral. I know that financial matters aren't at the top of the list right now, but what's right is right.
Just thought I should pass that on, and again, you have my deepest condolences on the tragic news.

wow stu I didn't know and I am sorry about that. It is so tough and I will be keeping you in my prayers. Please let us know what is going on each and everyday. That was a great topic and a great way to let him know. Man I am so sorry.
Also I was playing about your answers cause thats what Regina was saying about your answers. I hope more people take this serious and answer like it was them.
It was a great topic inspired by what I am sure is a great man.

Gvac, thanks. the VA has been great with him. he is getting everything in order. the money that he is owed from this since a class action law suit was settled does not get willed to the family, thank you Mrs. Clinton and your Husband Mr. Schumer. So, he is taking what ever he has gotten money wise and is putting a down payment on a house in Florida and he paid off his motorcycle. My dad, had the life he wanted. he rode all around this country on his bike, ate, smoked (cigs), drank and fucked whatever he wanted. He wasnt around when we were growing up and gave us nothing. At this point in his life he wants to make a home with my mom and the hot summer air of Florida may help him to live a bit longer or just make him more comfortable till he does pass. I think it has gotten to his brain due to a huge lump at his temple that drains like a white head as well as one on his back.
Please keep in mind, i am not posting this for attention and people do not need to say that they are sorry, please save that for people that need it. My dad lived on his terms and since my sister and i arent supposed to know, he is going to die on them as well. which is why i didnt jsut say it outright on the show yesterday. i cant explain how i feel about all of this. years and years of therapy helped me to come to terms with the anger i had for him for leaving us and thrusting adulthood on me at age 9. but that is a topic for another day.

One last post on your DAD. I know how you feel about him cause I understand 100%. Also another topic for another day. But I am still very sorry. If you need a country hayseed hick to talk to I am here. Just hollar.
To veer this thread back on topic and answer in a more serious manner, I think I'd do my very best to try and forget how much time I supposedly had left. If I had to live the remainder of my life thinking "11 months to go....10 months to go...." etc, I don't think I could handle it.
I guess I'd mend a few fences with old friends and lovers and finally take that trip to Asia that I've been dying to do for years now.
Don Stugots
05-28-2007, 04:48 PM
what lovers? (without naming names, ie, bad breakups? why?) where in Asia? would you go to a sholin monestary? shinto temple?
p.s. thank you.
J.Clints
05-28-2007, 04:53 PM
G says he would mend Fences but if I was not the reason the friendship fucked up I would say fuck it. Not enough time to worry. Just my opinion.
There are two great loves of my life that obviously didn't end the way they should have. Even though the ending of both of these relationships wasn't technically my "fault" I've always felt the desire to explain to these women why I left.
As far as Asia, I've always wanted to see Hong Kong and the Chinese countryside as well as Tokyo and the mountains of Japan. If I happened upon a monastery in my travels I'd love to visit, but I wouldn't actively seek one out.
Don Stugots
05-28-2007, 05:03 PM
i would seek one out and stay there for a week or two and try to learn from them.
i dont think i would try to mend crappy relationships, for me it would be a waste of time for me. i would make sure regina had anything that she needed and i would want her to come with me as i seen the world. Israel, Africa, Naples, Paris, Rome, everywhere.

Italy for a month or 6 weeks, soak in the culture, food, everything.
