Subj : moving or not To : Daryl Stout From : Barry Martin Date : Thu Jan 30 2020 15:38:00 Hi Daryl! BM> DS> It's broken...got a huge crack right down the middle. :P But, BM> DS> at least the crack is vertical instead of horizontal...because if BM> DS> it was horizontal, and I fell out of bed, I'd hear "Be-Duh, BM> DS> Be-Duh, Be-Duh", as the cheeks flapped together. :P BM>Seems likes if you rolled out of bed things would line up and same BM>result! DS> As klutzy as I am, that's a possibility. Late yesterday DS> afternoon, I woke up from a nap, and felt nauseous, like I was DS> getting an attack of food poisoning. So, I took my dentures out, DS> and took an anti-nausea tablet, which did its job. Unfortunately, DS> if I start vomiting, it takes a large dose of Zofran to stop it. DS> I either ate something that didn't agree with me, or ate too DS> much. Thatw asn't granola, that was rat bait! Maybe your body was doing a little early Sring Cleaning. (Hope you're feeling better.) BM>A possibility! My history is relatively simple so I can remember. Or BM>at least approximately remember: like I know I factured the right femur BM>on Easter Sunday morning -- it's the year I'd need to research. OTOH BM>long enough ago completely healed. DS> Days where they shoot off firecrackers, etc., are busy for the DS> ER's, with injuries. Personally, I feel that ONLY the DS> professional shows should have access to them. Folks with PTSD, DS> or with sensitive animals (i.e. dachshunds), suffer greatly, and DS> it sounds like repeated gunfire. Plus, in some cases, it is. Lots of pets are frightened and confused by sudden noises: usually meant something not good happening imprinted from their wild critter days. Iowa passed a law a few years ago allowing purchase of "low level" fireworks -- there's a term for it; used to be just minor items like sparklers allowed. The good news is most of the cities and towns restricted the hours one could set them off: locally twice a year: Fireworks Ordinance. Consumer fireworks are restricted to the night of December 31 from 10:00 p.m. until 12:30 a.m., immediate following day. Also, July 3 and July 4 from 2:00 p.m. until 11:00 p.m. each day. I will admit the first 4th of July it was some sight! "Everyone" had fireworks! (Not literally, not us....) The private displays were outdoing the City's. BM> DS> It's already on 8 1/2x11 pages...11 pages long. I do need to BM> DS> send an updated copy of that to MedicAlert, though. BM>"Hey George! We need to buy another hard drive to store this stuff!" DS> "640K of RAM ought to be enough for anybody". - Bill Gates, DS> 1980. A couple years later a 1 MB hard drive for my DEC Rainbow 100 computer was $1,000! No, I didn't get one. BM> BM>Yes; glad I don't have any travel plans for a while. OTOH we have a lot BM>of international students in the area so could be brought here. DS> I saw where several airlines have cancelled flights to and from DS> there. I heard a rumor that apparently, it was incubating in a DS> Canadian medical lab, and it was smuggled out, and released. I DS> think I saw another story where they were able to replicate it in DS> a lab, to where they could possibly get a vaccine for it. But, it DS> spreads like wildfire, and like with so many other illnesses, in DS> the incubation period, there are no symptoms. I hadn't heard about the Canadian medical lab -- the laid-back Canadians being sneaky and doing biomedical terrorism??!! (That's a joke folks -- no fair taking a snippet!) As for spreading rapidly, can understand: by the time figure out what to stop/detain a lot has already slipped by. Also saw on the news where China is bulding two (?) hospitals as fast as they can because of the outbreak. Makes sense, but I'd be a bit concerned with 'construction details': news shot showed cement being poured. Takes a while for cement to cure, and some of that medical equipment is rather heavy! And where is the hospital equipment coming from? It's not just stored in a warehouse. And then staffing. DS> I've been having a lot of angina lately...and am going to the DS> cardiologist this morning (no, he doesn't work for American DS> Greetings ). In the past, they think it's caused by acid DS> reflux (GERD), but I'm taking prescription strength Prilosec. DS> Yet, I think it may be reducing my B12 level. I don't think DS> there's a single medication out there without any kind of side DS> effect. But, without cardiac clearance, they won't do that DS> surgery on me next week. The heart's nothing to pooh-pooh with, so a good thing to have it checked out. Could be due to what caused your nausea, could be a subluxated anterior rib head, could be... get it checked! (Which you did.) BM> BM>Glad I don't have any travel plans for the next several months. BM> DS> Well, I do, but it'll be by train...to Louisiana in July, BM> DS> 2020...then to Mississippi in June, 2021...then, that's my last BM> DS> out of state trip. BM>Maybe! :) DS> Health and finances aren't going to allow it. :( Well spending all your money on visits to cardiologists! (If dead you're certainly not going; at least by checking it out you'll be alive which is a chance of going!) BM> DS> Doctors advise you to drink eight eight ounce glasses of water BM> DS> a day. Too much liquid sets my colon off, and to me, plain water BM> DS> is too bland. BM>I like my water on the rocks! (Which is a hare more funny because Dean BM>Martin is playing on Pandora currently.) DS> You could be like Eddie Valiant in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" DS> who ordered Scotch On The Rocks...and it was. I'm seeing a woman - no! it's a man dressed in a plaid skirt. Ah! A Scottish man dressed in a kilt! He's on a rocky beach. ...It morphed to Blake Shelton singing "Some Beach"! BM>Daryl bellies up to the juice bar, orders a flavoured water on the BM>rocks, "and make that a double!". DS> Then, he doubles over when he heads to the bathroom...but, DS> that's my pee-rogative. There have been times when crawling would have been more comfortable than walking with the kidney stone! DS> * OLX 1.53 * What happens if you get scared half to death twice?
