The Magistrate.

[SheWhoMustBeObeyed]

The Magistrate lies in intensive care tonight, recovering from triple bypass surgery.

It was a long day for him but even longer for those of us who love and cherish this uniquely gifted, deeply insightful and impeccably droll man. His presence is treasured by us all; his absence would leave us inconsolable. We are deeply grateful to all the doctors and hospital staff who have worked so hard and so skillfully to keep him in our midst.

As you have so kindly done in the past, I hope you can take a minute to send Mag a shout-out that will lift his spirits as he sets out on the road to full recovery. He holds his DU friends in high esteem, and even appreciates his enemies for the amusement they provide.

So put a smile on the old man's face. It'll be the best post you can write tonight. :hug:

Having been down the path, but mercifully without having to undergo The Big Zipper, I can say that he will feel much better in remarkably short order.

And make use of whatever "rehab" is offered. It is about lifestyle changes and it really, honestly, actually works.

For you both: HUGE HUGS.

I have long valued the sense of elegance and civility you bring to this board, and I selfishly wish you to be hale and hearty and among us once again as soon as possible. Even if your illness prevents participation among us for some time to come, I intensely wish that you are back among your close friends and family with your characteristic wisdom and wit very quickly, and for many decades in the future.

Most sincerely yours,

With the manners and wisdom of Confucius, you move conversation to the level of action. I'll never forget: You were one of the first to greet me when I first came on board. I was "Oblomov" then and you wanted to know from where the appellation came -- Russian literature. And, so, we set on our paths for the past eight years.

From the very beginning, you have been one DUer who gives a damn. Even if we don't agree 100-percent, we both want to get the Bush bastards. Love you, Sir!

[scarletwoman]

116. Please convey to The Magistrate that he must recover fully and forthwith.

The Universe, much less DU, can ill afford to be deprived of his equanimity, his compassion, and his wisdom.

And on a personal level, I'm quite dumbfounded to hear of this! I've missed seeing him around; but since I've been absenting myself from DU for varying lengths of time, I assumed that it was a result of the infrequency of my own visits and not any absence on his part.

Please tell him that I love him dearly and cannot bear to lose him. I love him for his superlative intelligence and incisive wit. I have cherished and respected him for years.

There was a post I made many years ago that no one but The Magistrate understood what I meant. It was my first encounter with him, and I have never forgotten his supportive response. I have held him in my heart ever since.

Be well, dear Magistrate. I will always hold you in my heart.

[EFerrari]

And object fulsomely to this interruption. :)

But he never leaves his dirty socks on the floor, or drinks out of the milk carton, or kicks the cat. So I've never really had the heart to get mad at him.

I will pray for this one, in whatever decision his or her eloquent soul makes.
Much love to the Magistrate. Thank you for standing up, having the courage of your convictions. Many times it was highly annoying, but I did so appreciate that there was someone there who was as passionate about propriety as I was about my vision of what was right. Thank you, thank you, Dear Soul.

His use of "Sir" and "Maam" are very unique and charming! It kind of bugged me too.

Can't wait for him to return, make a pointed comment at me and call me "Maam".

Love it! There's no one like TheMagistrate!

I hadn't seen him post recently, and wondered how he was doing. Thank you for posting this, as I had no idea he was having surgery. All my best to him, as I had the distinct pleasure of serving several mod terms with him. His vast knowledge of all things political, historical, and more gave me a wonderful education during that time. Please get well soon, Sir- hugs to you.... :hug:

Sir, you need to get the quadruple one for a lasting, new lease on life. My friend had that plus the porcine heart valve replacement and he lived for an additional 20 years, eventually going to meet his maker around his 87th birthday. I fear, sir, that you may now spend the next 20 or 30 years of your life worrying about the one that wasn't replaced.

[smoogatz]

393. He's one of my favorites here.

Very funny, very smart, and right a hell of a lot more than he's wrong. I'm always glad when I come across one of his sly remarks in an otherwise dreary thread. Feel better, Magistrate. The bypass thing is tough at first, but it gets a lot better--in fact, you may find that you feel better than you have in a long time. All best wishes to you, Sir.

395. My grandpa had triple bypass surgery...

the docs wanted to get him out of the hospital, he was such a pain in the ass (in the delightful way that my grandpa can be a pain-he has an acerbic sense of humor that most people fail to get). Here's hoping you're equally a pain in the ass and that you get back to doing what you love soon- for my grandpa, it was sitting on the porch, doing crosswords (occasionally forgetting that it rained and getting the seat of his pants wet) and eating my grandma's delicious food. :)

Your unwavering civility is much needed in an increasingly incivil world...

I offer this poem for your recuperation:

The Term

A rumpled sheet
Of brown paper
About the length

And apparent bulk
Of a man was
Rolling with the

Wind slowly over
And over in
The street as

A car drove down
Upon it and
Crushed it to

The ground. Unlike
A man it rose
Again rolling

With the wind over
And over to be as
It was before.

--William Carlos Williams

I had no idea! I was anxious to see what
The Magistrate had to say about this
insane ruling by the Extreme Court.

I hope he heals quickly and comes back
to us. If he leaves us, I will be distraught.
I cherish his posts and feel that I know
him in the way I can know someone online.

I have learned much from him. I do hope
he gets better very soon. I will put him
in the prayer book at mass today and will
say a special rosary for him. I know that
doesn't mean much, but it certainly can't
hurt.

Please give The Magistrate my regards and let him know that Mr. Lukasahero underwent quadruple bypass surgery about 2 years ago.

It was the best thing he could have done! We had a little 'book club' when I came home from work. We'd have some tea and he would summarize the book for me! It was like I read it again. Use this time to rest and give in to a few selfish indulgences!

I was about 36 hours away from needing a similar procedure. I had the good fortune to follow a hunch about a shoulder twinge
and find a cardiologist who took me seriously the second I expressed my suspicion, and so escaped without a heart attack or
a bypass (two stents and a diet change were the extent of my "ordeal").

Few get off so easy.

Still, while life and breath are yet yours, please use both to return to this board where you are, as the above posts
incontrovertibly demostrate, an integral part.
