The Original Old Farts Club

[Dan789]

Evening all. Real encouraging listening to all you carpet munchers. I am almost totally recovered except my memory on where I put things is a mess. Was bad before but now.....

@ Roster....W T F are you doing going to the mail box in the nude....only (imagination required) do this

@ Steve. So sorry about the hurricane issues....I think I have problems.

@ Big...there is a thing about a mirror. Look at it and you won't be running around in you PJ's. Even where you live.

@ Dan, switch to gas and you will never go back.

@ Hippie....cut your fricken toe nails and you wouldn't be catching you toe on your skives.

@ Roster....buy a new tooth brush...for god sakes

Another frcken trip to the Med center tomorrow....this time for a blood draw for a physical next week. This is getting to be a pain in the arize.

Drinking ton's of water trying to flush my system of all the nefarious bad habits I have.

Glup Glup Glup

Drink up, wife swears by the stuff (water), drinks twice as much as I do. I never developed much of a taste for anything other than some beers, a few scotches and an assortment of whiskey’s…

I normally drink a lot of water. My recent issues with not being able to hold anything down has complicated things and trying to make up for it. Feel like a bloated cow....if you have seen one you know what I mean.

I cannot eat watermelon past 3pm in the afternoon otherwise I’ll be up all night p p p p ping

but i do like a gin and tonic before bed , only about 3-4 times a week , medicinal moderation works for me

besides I am allergic to alcohol.......every time I get around it I break out in handcuffs

~quickly leaves the room~

 

[pute]

Right now I wish I could do either. My body got so dehydrated not being able to hold anything down I am afraid it will affect my blood test. Wondering if I should reschedule. Whatever....getting old is so much fun. People taking a dirt nap don't have these problems.

If it is really bad you should seek medical attention!
In the first two days after a concussion, follow these steps to ensure you have a safe recovery:

• Rest.
• Avoid caffeine.
• Sleep at least 8 to 10 hours in a 24 hour period.
• Have someone check on you to ensure your symptoms are not worsening.
• Avoid screen time on a computer, TV, smartphone, or tablet. Activities like texting or playing video games require an amount of mental focus that can worsen your symptoms, as can the bright light and movement of screens.
• Take a break from mentally demanding activities such as work, school, computer use, and reading.
• Avoid bright lights and loud noises.
• Take a mild pain reliever such as acetaminophen (Tylenol).
• Avoid sports or demanding physical activities.
• Stay hydrated.
• Eat a light, healthy diet.
• Avoid alcohol consumption, as this may worsen or mask your symptoms.

excellent list, bro.

I might as well get on the bus wiv da rest of yiz.

GOTTA go to the VA this moanin'. Shitdamnhellpissfartpoop. On the good side, it is because they are testing me for a new generation of hearing aids... Mebbe they'll gimme mine to drive home with. (Although I am not sure if the hearing aids have a car-driving app.)

I HATE going there. As you walk in, there is a huge picture of a burned-out vacant-brained evil criminal. And I MUST wear a mask.

Ask Doctor it may show up it the Kidney function test as a problem than again maybe not. Ya old Coot

Last faceplant I took I figure was karma. Crawled outta bed with all the associated pains involved and thought to myself, "Well, at least I still stand up to put my pants on." No sooner than that thought had entered my mind, I managed to hook my big toe into the crotch of my shorts. It was like the hand of God b itch slapped me face first into the floor. Thank Buddha for soft carpet and a thick skull.

Please keep this secret to yourselves, but ah discovered that the secret to putting your pants on both legs at the same time is to sit down first.

I used to have lots of trouble getting charcoal briquettes/lump charcoal started, but thanks to improvising in using a heat gun, I had for shrink tube insulation. I just fire that up on high, poke the nozzle into the charcoal in two spots for about 1 minute to 45 seconds each spot. Then close the lid, open the vents, and give it six minutes. Fire's roaring and ready to either toss a few burgers or anything else you want to cook. When the heat gun eventually fails after a few years, $14 gets you a new version at Harbor freight. I've seen fancy heat guns for getting grills started for way more money...

I use a starter chimney and an electric heating element, which works like a charm.

If you're dehydrated enough to affect your blood test, it would be a good thing to know. I almost died from the common flu because my not eating, but drinking copious quantities of water got my blood electrolytes out of whack and I developed arrhythmia and tachycardia. I was beating 180 beats a minute, not counting the beats I missed, when I checked into the ER.

 

[WeedHopper]

Been there with the dehydration. My heart meds make it much easier for me to dehydrate in the sun. It can cause me to have Afib which can be some scary **** and dangerous so I have to be careful when I'm working outside. Within 30mins my shirts are soaking wet when I'm in the heat.

There is a hilarious video of 3 Russian guys on a couch doing the "wooden spoon trick" definitely worth a watch....

[Bubba]

The sap is in the middle. Him and another engage in putting wooden spoon handle in mouth, then raising head and letting in drop on the other guys head. As you can imagine, you can't get much power. Then it's the other guy's turn, except 3rd guy is behind him with a spoon and cracks him on head. Sap can not figure how he is generating such power!
