ok, the last aleve i took, at approximately 9AM MST, is officially wearing off. time to re-up, before the pain goes tilt.

I've lived on Ibuprofen 800 TID for 7 weeks at a time for gout. Nothing else made a difference. (I tried them all.)

Upscale restaurant (for Dave: off Piuma by the fire station), and I developed shaking chills somewhere between appetizers and the main course. We had to leave after one bite. My wife said it was the best fish she's ever had.

gout would suck. ibuprofen disagrees with my GI tract in a bad way.

One day, young Jedi, you too will be old. In maybe 10 years. Then you'll see these things start rolling in, too.

Do you guys remember the events of the summer... It won't take 10yrs for me to be on the injured list...

porsche-poor, for your sinus infection, you may try irrigating your sinuses with saline solution (a little salt in some water). i used to get sinus infections just by talking about them. the last few years have been fairly sinus infection free.

Here's the crappy part of age-related injuries: they don't just go away like when you were a kid. Once you've got it, you've got it. It may go away for awhile, but you'll do something one day and it'll be back (for a longer while) to remind you of your past.

doing that but so far the water just increases the pressure. if I keep it up i might explode.

Sometime between when you graduate from college and when you hit 30, take heed of your parents' advice to take care of yourself.

If you really go through with that advice, just make sure a camera is rolling for You Tube posterity.
