There are some basic cures for any non-terminal ailments. Step one - drink lots of beer with Scotch chasers. Before you lose your wits, step two -drink a glass of warm wine with sugar added. Step three - take three asprin. step four - put on a coat and climb into a sleeping bag. If you wake up the next morning, you will find the evil spirits have been washed out. If not they will not be able to stand the way you smell and will leave anyway.

Warning - this above cure is only for trained professionals.

If for some reason it does not work, stay drunk for a few weeks. You will not know you are sick, and it will take it's course and be over by the time you come out of it.

I would also remind the girl in question that she made you sick and she owes you big time. And when she is better you intend to collect.

Also remember whenever you get really sick to go visit all the people you do not like.

I hope all this helps.
Dr. trike

Off the subject, but well worth the post. About a month ago I had the runs REAL bad and took over the counter medicines. They failed. Called the Dr. and got an Rx that also did not help too much. 84 year old neighbor down the road stopped and I explained my problem. He told me to take an apple, slice it paper thin, and put the plate with the apple on it in the refrigerator. When the apple begins to get brownish, eat all of it right away. I thought he was nuts, but at this point I would try anything. Within 30 MINUTES I had greatly slowed down and within 90 MINUTES it stopped! Too good not to share as we all have the " Pennsylvania Quick Steps " at some time in our lives............

Sucking face can, indeed, have it's drawbacks. Personally, I feel I must deny women my precious bodily fluids. Can you say "mono"? The best way I know of to protect oneself from catching something from a woman whose lungs are riddled with mold is to drink a glass of vinegar immediately after any intimate contact. Back in the day, I was playing tonsil hockey with a chick when I told her I thought I had gotten her gum. She calmly informed me she wasn't chewing any gum, but did have a bad cold! Be forewarned!

All I can say is wow! I' am speachess with no words to come to my mind. I thought I had been there done it until now including a morning I got up on several years ago and discovered around my 9th day after the fact several states away from where this started a very painfull discovery that I had been in the company of a female that may or may not have known they had picked up something that I was not going to clear up on my own unless I felt that before long I would have to give up standing up for my morning duty's but rather would have to sit down for the whole thing.

I did not have any money at that time and much to the doctors dismay only a first name and the address that only included a state and a city of at that time with a total of population more than the whole state of Wyoming but in spite of these things more than 35 years ago I knew even then that I was still young and had a whole life ahead of me and even though your thing is probably not all that bad but you and no one else on this post including me knows for sure what it is and who's to know whether that girl knows anything either.

Not to be a nag (too late) if you are worried about this as much you write you cannot go wrong to find out, you had enough money to drink beers you can come up with a way to see a "doctor" I hate them a lot my self but do know where the limit is, and also if this girl is any thing at all to you convince her to go also. She may be as surprised as you to find out what it realy is and if she realy does know she better get busy and take the meds as perscribed before she ends up pushing up dirt. Any thing to do with the lungs like that can not be good.

I do know there is some serious stuff out there that will wreke havoc with a happy ever after and even though symptoms dissapear does not mean it will not return, my daughter found this out for her self and hope she is finaly curred, time will tell. Good luck to you.

Oh I am not worried about it, it is nothin more htan a sinus infection I am sure. Just commenting more on how my day is, and hte fact that I hate being sick, but at least this sickness was the result of a more pleasurable experience than just some random sickness.

I was told this years back and at the time two thoughts came to my mind; are you nuts? And the other was; I know what I' am doing, when I was told that someday I would start to realize that some times in spite of the fact of how nice of a package you get some times whats inside the box may not be what we exspected.

I have since then made very poor choices by any body's standards until it finally sunk in what was being told to me; If you go to a junk yard you will more than likely find junkers.

I do hope every thing is good with you and hope I did not offend as it was not meant that way. Memories from your post flooded back and I responded with a lot of years down the line mentality. The road you travel as with all others is yours and yours alone

Well, since she got me sick, had not seen her again. (between our two schedules, things are like that and will remain so) anyways, I wasn't supposed to be seeing her again until thursday, when we both had a 'slightly' free night.

Tonight she is working (EMT) and I had a flag football game for the schools intramurals. I joked with her earlier saying that I was gonna do something stupid to hurt myself on purpose to get her out there so I could see her. (You should see were this is going....)

Yeah, I did in fact get to see her tonight. Broke my nose playing flag football, I mean COME ON!!!! (and I mean BROKE, multiple fractures, one of them compound (through the skin) of the bone, not the cartilidge) I drove myself over to the standby station for the ambulance, she was gonna see if she or her partner could fix it (we didnt realize how bad it was until I got over there and they took a look at it) ended up having to go to the hospital, so they drove me over there in the ambulance.

it was simply rather funny and ironic (and slightly painful I might add....I don't suggest this tactic in order to catch a woman...) because I swear that I did not break my nose on purpose.
