I think I prefer codeine cough sirup....

It started yesterday evening and it got a lot worse today...
Hopefully I'll be a bit better in the morning.

I was sick once and I did not like it.

I don't do that anymore, it is against my religion.

Popcorn with liberal amounts of melted butter, Garlic SALT (not powder), and Cayenne or Red Pepper.
Always both stops my coughs, but clears my sinuses.

Garlic in garlic salt or garlic powder is an antiseptic.
Red pepper is a natural source of vitamin C and produces an acidic environment making it hard for bugs to replicate. The heat in the red pepper also stimulates endorphins to easy the pain/scratchiness.

For sore throats I use Chicken Broth (not low fat or low salt) heated with liberal amounts of Garlic Powder, Red Pepper, and black pepper. Sip.
Clears up throat problems, gives me my voice back within a few minutes, and the chicken broth gets rid of that achey all over feeling.

When feeling fluish I also eat large amounts of French bread made into garlic toast with LOTS of butter, garlic powder, red pepper, and mozerella cheese. Sometimes I add pepperoni slices.

I also keep Sudafed, and Decongestant cough syrup around to stop the sinuses from running out of control, often the cause of sore or itchy scratchy throat.

When nasal cavities get really irritated and stopped up I douche my nose with a warm salt water and vinegar mix.
Immediate relief.

G-Man, get well soon. We need you.

Rick has abandoned us, I remember back in the stone ages there was a member of the group called stigeon or something like that. I forgot his real name. He thinks we are not worthy. We need your input.

I have to agree with Sid. To go out in the wilderness alone and not tell anyone is stupid.

You got lucky and made it back safe.

That is great, but something as simple as a twisted ankle could be a death sentence.

I am glad you made it back, I plan on drinking a custom home brew of yours in the summer of 2012.

LP = Les Paul.

If I do get to see it, I probably can't touch, though I will see if I can touch it once.... Gotta touch a 350,000 guitar.
