…and, boy, does my penis hurt.
Thank goodness I don’t type with it…at least on Tuesdays, that is.
All went well. Months ago I had mentioned that the stone was about the size of Ross Douthat’s head which was obviously hyperbole. As it turned out it was the size of Megan McArdle’s brain so life-saving measures were not implemented.
By the way, I came… this… close…. at check-in, to listing my religion as "Pastafarian" but the young lady didn’t look like she would have been amused. Story of my life…
Back later. Did Obama still win?

Well, if you stop touching yourself there, maybe it’ll stop hurting…
Glad to see you made it out alive, and (presumably) in one piece.
And now, if you’ll excuse me, I have a sudden urge to listen to Leon Russell’s “Roll Away the Stone”…
That’s stone fabu, man.
Yes, he won. We all won.
So! It wasn’t Michelle Malkin sticking a needle into the crotch of a “Tbogg voodoo doll”?
Damn office pools…
Obama? Don’t you mean Gore?
Was your check-in lady, Carol by any chance?
Obama won, but you might want a shot of morphine before reading the advice Hinderaker has for him.
Glad to hear you’re on the road to recovery.
What an inspiring picture of you rising from the dead, TBogg. When you’re off your pain meds, you and the dogs might want to think about founding a major world religion.
Saint Fenway, patron of building wreckers? And Saint Beckham, patron of long-suffering mentors, and of course, the much-missed Saint Satchmo, patron of snoozes.
Glad you’re feeling better!
Aryan Jeebus fits you well…
Gee, I hate to sound selfish, but I think this means we can still get pictures of Fenway. My Moxie so looks forward to them. Take care Tbogg!
When you’re off your pain meds, you and the dogs might want to think about founding a major world religion.
I think he should do it while he’s still ON them.
(Wasn’t that how Hubbard did it?)
Maybe you need a penis sling, like Steve on the Sarah Silverman Show. Here’s one!

Aw, hell, surely that thang is big enough that he can use Beckham’s nail-cutting sling, huh? (Head tilt).
Yowza! Just keep your drug blood titers up.
I’m just SOOOOOO glad that the stone was as tiny as Megan McArdle’s brain. Feel better quickly.
Generalissimo Franco is still dead!
ditto, Marion…ditto.
I’ surprised that didn’t just pass on its own.
Glad to here you are doing well. Also glad you don’t think with the little head (unlike Rich Lowry). Take care and hope you get to feeling much better very soon.
When I was a tiny infant, I had a hernia repaired. Since they were in the general vicinity, they took out my appendix, so I got a buy-one-get-one surgical bonus.
I was just thinking maybe, since they were already in there, they could have given you a “bonus” too, if you get my drift.
I asked… but they didn’t have anything in black.
Bud-da-bump.
Thanks I’ll be here all week. Try the vicodin.
Actually I think that “bonus” would really have been for me.
Bud-da-bump-bump.
I’ll be here all week too! However the red wine will have to suffice.
It’s a good job the daughter is away at school and not having to hear her parents make penis jokes….oh wait, they probably have the internet out there, doesn’t they? Never mind.
So that was how He had the stone removed?
I always thought he just had it rolled away….
Glad you’re back’n’better,
N.
Hey, you Boggsters sound like you kids have a real sparkling wit about you.
I’m a promoter and my name is Artie Fufkin. I got a cruise ship leaving Newark , NJ in about 3 weeks.
It’s one of those cruises to nowhere, so it’ll be just Mr. & Mrs. T and a boatload of young bloggers from…ah…”The Corner.” You know those guys?
I’ll have to get back to you with the details, but think it over. You could kill. Really kill.
Megan McArdle has a brain?
I knew kidney stones were painful, but not to the point that Tbogg would start posting Jesus pictures. Amazing. Glad to hear you’re feeling better!
White Guy Jesus looks a lot like Ted “Screaming Jesus” Neeley, doesn’t he?
And TBogg sounds like he’s got a case of post-op Screaming Penis, doesn’t he?
The parallels are eerie, aren’t they?
TBogg, I shall put a cookie on my shrine to St. Satchmo, and ask him to work through the other two members of the Holy Bassett Trinity to bless you with a speedy recovery. If you notice a few more chewed up household items, or an inconveniently placed doggie “accident,” just consider it part of the sacrament process.
This Pastafarian said a prayer for you that ended in “Ramen”.
You should have the stone mounted in a prong-set pendant and given to you lovely wife as an anniversary present.
I don’t think I can top the Borchst Belt humor and you probably saw where Assrocket said Obama needed to shape up his public statements pronto, and be gaffe/embarassing statement free like the Great Junior.
But Camille Paglia still likes Sarah Palin!
Okay, she really said that but I got nothing. Cookies would have been better, I know.
Does this mean you and Fenway will have competing “junk displays” in this week’s Thursday Night blogging?
Congrats, Tbogg. Glad everything came out alright.
I got nothin’
there was gonna be something clever for Mrs TBogg a la roiling stone gathers no mas, but hey
glad to hear you are ok and hopefully pain free from here on out.
A manly man just slaps his wee-wee around and gets back to blogging!
I think you should name the stone “Trig.”
(I’m going to burn in hell for saying that.)
MegMac called, she wants her brain back.
And good to hear that it went well.
You went to see Dr. Richard Hertz?
Fool.
I used to work for a Richard Hertz. No. Really. I did, It was at that job where I met the future mrs tbogg.
So glad you made it TBogg.
What a month — Obama wins, wingnuttery in meltdown, and TBogg gets his thingy fixed. Praise the the Lord, we’re on a roll!
My son put up a web page about his kidney stone adventure, he was so extremely impressed with the amount of pain involved. Good luck. Maybe some chronic would help?
Enjoy.
