I'm finished, baby!

Everything's wrapped and under the tree.

How're you guys doing?

Are you finished shopping/wrapping/making excuses for not getting that present in time?

Hanging with the wife's family in Mexico. My wife wrapped presents today, since you can't have sealed packages as you cross the boarder. I'm setting up a computer and high speed internet access at her parents house (thank god), so I can get my OT fix there.

let's just say I'm having an "interesting" xmas. Sturm, meet Drang. And to top it off I've been fighting off a bug for the past 1.5 days but I think I'm about to lose the battle.

Actually, a doctor on KNX Radio a couple days ago said Airborne was more or less placebo. I'm not sure myself; all I know is I did an Airborne today. Freakin' everyone's sick!

I suspect global warming...

I don't really believe in any of the remedies, but I did give in to Airborne last year and I liked the results. Maybe it is a placebo, but it has me faked out

i did an airborne last night. may have slowed it a bit. Also been doing echincea tablets and juice. But if I'm gonna get it, I'm gonna get it. It's been a really long year and I've been running on adrenaline for quite some time. At a certain point the body says, "enough."

Echincea won't do anything at all. Take the Airborne every three hours or so. It does have Vitamin C and other Vitamins as well. There is the tried and true "rest". Sorry it hit during the holidays.

I swear by Airborne, and two other people I told to take it now swear by it.

If it's a placebo, it has 100% results...that's a hell of a success rate for a placebo against a virus.....

I have to agree about the Airborne - so far so good. Went to the grocery store this morning to get stuff for our Xmas night celebration. People were sneezing and coughing everywhere. It was nasty, unclean, unhealthy. With how diseased everyone is, I'll either start wearing a surgical mask when I go out, or just call it quits and become another Howard Hughes recluse.
