Thank you Matsche, but I'm not bed ridden, at least not yet.  I came in 
from the Dr's, took the first dose of ciproflaxen, sorted the stuff that 
I bought last night or came in today, then went to the garage and pried 
the sheldon about 8" farther inside the door with a 6 foot wrecking bar  
so I had ladder room behind it, pulled a few screws out of the osb panel 
I thought I needed to loosen, but wound up using a multitool saw to 
remove the piece over the foot of the axle bearing on the left end (from 
the inside) propping it up with a handi-man and about 7 feet of 
butternut native 2x4, slipped a 6" square pad of 3/4" ply under its 
mounting foot and put it back together. Now I see I will have to loosen 
the cable clip on that side and take up about 3/4" of cable as its slack 
on the drum when up, and sitting too solid on the cement on that side 
when down.  But its still raining some although nothing like this 
afternoon, so that can wait till I can play & stay dry.  As long as I 
can keep my diabetic feet with their poor circulation warm & dry, and 
the gabapenten keeps my back capable of walking a short distance w/o 
getting a ticket for drunken walking, you stand a good chance of seeing 
me moving should you want to stop by for a hand cooler and see what 
keeps this old man out of the bars. :)  I'd be glad to have the company, 
and someone to talk to.  With the Mrs out of air to talk, COPD, and 
uninterested in whatever it is I am doing, good conversation is limited 
to folks on mailing lists that cover my interests, with this one at the 
top of the list.

Thanks.
