I'm 49 and closing on 50. I had my last physical about 4 mo ago, though didn't start the prostate exam and colonoscopy routine yet. I'll set up a doctor's appt in the New Year. Fun stuff!

Roto-rooter, that's the name and away go troubles, down the drain....

I drink at least 64 oz. of high alkali water every day (16 oz. when I wake up, another 16 oz. 20 min. later to start the day).

Just shook the dew off my bladder stem; still pissin' like a racehorse.

We ain't no different than plants - we ain't well watered, we wither an' droop.

My GF says that two things on men just keep growing. Our prostates and our noses. And bellies.

And EARS!

The best analogy I saw (on TV) that made sense to me was a demonstration by a urologist comparing the prostate to a bagel where ther urethra goes through the center. He showed one with a large center hole as normal and one with a constricted center hole. The constricted one was supposedly how it gets as you age.

My Father had a "roto rooter" done to his uretha a couple of years ago. Not nice, but he's "going fine" now.

At a recent large convention at a large hotel I walked into the men's room many steps behind a man in his late 70s or early 80s. I had a bladder full of used beer to get rid of. A kid that was very early teenager or younger was behind me walking in. The line of urinals was just three across. The old man picked the left one, I went for the far right and the kid went for the renaming middle stall. The kid unzipped and within 1/10 of a second it was obvious he had a strong stream flowing. I got going and was just feeling relief when the kid was done and gone. The old man muttered "show off" as the kid left. I was almost done with getting rid of a couple of beers before the old man got started. The acoustics of the urinals made it easy to know what was happening.
