Bacon and Bacon
If I had been a member of Monty Python, we would be calling email spam… Bacon today.
I was 31 when the attacks happened.
While I do think that there was an awareness that an attack was possible, or even in the works. I sincerely doubt that anyone truly thought that 3 airplanes were going to be flown into buildings on that day and one crash in a PA field. The US had the attitude that we were isolated and well defended enough that such attacks were unthinkable. The complete one sidedness of Gulf War 1 really gave the US an out of proportion notion of being invulnerable. Even though the WTC was bombed 9 years prior, two years after the end of GW1.
Conspiracy denotes malicious intelligent intent. The reality is closer to stupidly complacent. Sometimes the two are hardly indistinguishable.
I’ve not had any side effects from gaba, so haven’t explored alternatives.
I did have the steroid shot procedure, but it had zero effect. Day to day my condition is manageable, I just won’t be skydiving any longer. One hard opening and it could make my situation a lot worse and yes I am a former skydiver. So that’s not really a joke.
54M with a L4/L5 bulge here. Happened 4 years ago.
Been on 900mg Gabapentin ever since. The bulge is non-operable as it is not large enough. I know what you’re thinking, if it’s so small, what’s my problem? The bulge is sitting perfectly on the nerve (sciatic?) going down my right leg. Ever since, my right leg has felt partially asleep and with out the gabapentin I get a lot of lower back pain.
I have a few other issues due to it as well. Using the full strength in my right leg results in painful cramps throughout the entire leg. I don’t have the full control over the leg. Walking over rough ground can be interesting, because the leg isn’t doing exactly what I tell it to do. It’s not enough to stop me from doing things, but it can make hiking interesting at times.
Yes, I did physical therapy. Even to this day, I still do the exercises the therapist had me doing.
I’m about 15 pounds overweight, but I am active.
This is the way I’m going to be for the rest of my life, barring some procedure being developed that makes correcting a bulge like mine safe to correct.
Oh lord, don’t go and listen to AC/DC then.
Art is subjective, so there really are no wrong opinions, just disagreements. I strongly disagree with you, but that’s OK. Fist bump bro, because it’s different strokes that makes the world go round.
Now, if you say such things about RUSH… cracks knuckles. ;-)
Protect your hearing.
I did not and today, at the age of 54, I cannot hear above 13khz when I used to be able to hear above 20khz. Part of that is age, but most of it is from not using hearing protection at concerts and other activities where I should have been using it.
Any constant noise above 80db will damage your hearing. 80db is a LOT quieter than you think it is.
I still use a Yahoo account I created back in 95 (I think, it might be a little later).
USA here.
Indifferent to sports. Football, baseball, and basketball are at best insipid. Hockey is at least somewhat interesting, but that’s only because my youngest plays. Even then, I do not follow it.
Don’t care about guns. Yes, I can shoot. It pissed my right-wingnut, Kyle Shittenhouse worshiping brother off to no end, when I could out shoot him, with his own guns. Did I mention he has 6 years in the Army and practiced with his weapons at least once a week? It took me maybe 10 shots of practice to start being more accurate. My vision is worse than his too. Still have no interest in owning one. I keep a Claymore next to my bed for social occasions at home.
Add to that:
Solid State Class AB and modern Class D amplifiers are far superior to any Tube amplifier. At this point, I would go as far that higher end Class D amplifiers are better than most Class AB at this point. Hypex and IcePower have made great strides in the sound quality of their amps, which are extremely efficient as well.
You want a lot of 2nd order harmonics in your sound! Great, get it through a DSP that will duplicate it through a modern amplifier and stop heating your room up using tubes.
Two fish in a tank.
One turned to the other and asked; “How do we drive this thing?”
How do blind skydivers know when to deploy their chute?
When the leash goes slack.
Here is a derivative of that one:
Two guys walk into a bar. The third one ducked.
What do you get when you pull the wings off of a fly?
A walk.
No and I’m already to that point.
It’s just my two older brothers that are left. One is a narcissist and not worth my time. The other is a rabid Gravy SEAL who would rather have Kyle Shittenhouse as his brother than me.
It’s not just politics that separates me from them, there is a lot of family history of disrespect and attempted abuse.
It was the Halloween boogie 1999 at Skydive Greene County in Xenia, OH. We were jumping a CASA 212’ which at the time was the largest jump ship in the US. It was Sunday morning, first load of the day and I was sitting up by the cockpit. The previous night was filled by a party and a ton of beer.
At about 9000 feet my bowels started rumbling, at 10k I released. All 30 people on the plane started gagging. The pilots opened the rear door to air out the cabin. As any pilot will tell you, a fart at altitude is a dangerous thing.
The Drop Zone Owner warned us that if he catches the culprit, that person would receive a permanent ban from the DZ.
I was suspected, as were a couple of people that had been sitting near me, as that part of the plane is where the smell was most intense. But no one fessed up.
I jumped there for another 7 years.
Do you think it’s Oreseur, or Tensoon?
Hrast is Croation for Oak.
Quercus is the genus of the oak tree
So his name is Oak Oak.

Harry Potter series… All of them.
LoTR/ Hobbit… All of them.
