Politics Corner, August 2nd

Today was going to be the 60th birthday party of a friend. He just found out that he has prostate cancer. No amount of distancing would make a party reasonable. We'll probably have dinner with just him and the two of us soon. But there's no way we were going to have a pool party at his place this year.

I talked to my mom on my birthday and she told me that her guy has prostate cancer. I said mom, I actually know a lot about that right now because....

And then there was the awkward but sort of necessary conversation. Uh, if he needs it out, it might nick a nerve which affects things down there. My friend is looking into paying a lot of money out of pocket to go to Mayo and get a laser surgery with, uh, better results.
