OK funny story time since I'm sitting in the office bored out of my mind. A few years back worked with a fellow and we had that friendly GM vs Dodge battle going (me with a 01 Sierra, him a 01 Ram) One day it seemed a squirrel had climbed up into the engine compartment of his truckat his house and when he got to work it sort of was hanging out from under the truck. One of the women at work used to work for a vet so we got it out and she tried to save it but to no avail (not the funny part) BUT from then on everybody ribbed him about his truck being at 1/2 power.

OK that's my story everybody back to work!

 

LOL...Good one Brian.

Good Morning Everyone...Hope you all have a great day!

Busy day yesterday, but I got most of the things I needed done. I just need to finish up my paper today sometime. Changed the oil last night in the Monte, so I was happy I got that done before I head up to Reno tomorrow night.

 

Good to hear I'm not the only one suffering, the pain comes and goes just below the left chest (nipple) sometimes pretty intense but I've had a stress test (married twenty years..battle tested) a ekg so it's not the heart. blood work which shows I'm chemically ballanced...a little low on the white blood cells so I need to hydrate more but it is associated with chronic heart burn ( not acid reflux tho) Keep in mind I don't drink nor smoke.....two years ago I tore my left rotocuff and required surgery, I prefer not to use any pain pills so I started useing alleve (generic brand) daily to keep the inflamation down during rehab and have continued to use it when stiffness gets the best of me. I've stopped all asprin and anti inflamitory pills and have been taking nexeum which even with insurance is a pocket buster...30 tabs $59 after insurance picks up $140, over the counter prilosek is no better at half the strength its a good thing all you youngsters and your children will be picking up my cost on that soon enough...Of course under the new H/C reform. Like my wife says we'll get it figured out after the autopsy , not to worry! Jarhead

 

haha sounds just like what I go through. Fortunately it's not often for me, maybe one very painful attack that last 5 minutes every other week??

I currently don't take anything for it, just allow it to pass when it happens.

 

Ditto on the pain. I was told that it was a shift in the diaphram lining, or something like that. Takes your breath away!

 

Whats up everyone.

Been busy working on some stuff. Made a basket for a neighbor today and did some shipping.

Jarhead, sorry to hear that they cant figure out whats wrong man. Sometimes it makes me wonder if what they are really doing it using a patient as a quinea pig so they can learn what works and what doesn't.

Justin, thats crazy about the cats man. Maybe its an opportunity for you man.

 

evening everyone, hope everyone had a decent day, JJ you looking for a good shipper? i know one if you are? hopefully your business picks up and you can hire yourself a good shipping person(me)

jarhead, mike and wayne take it easy with the pain issues, sounds scary.

me, i'm just trying to get the new commute issues figured out due to the work site being moved? and i must say, i really don't like driving at nite and in the rain, but it will be snow soon, so i'm sure i'll be even more hysterical. see ya

 

Someday i might need one. I Hope!!

Dont you just love having to learn new routes? LOL

 

evening, everyone. long day today, lol. we got a nice rain, i guess because the weatherman said sunny all week. i went with my buddie in his truck down to the store to kill some time, & the damn thing poped a rear brakeline... in the rain! AND the wipers quit. no fun lol. and our busses at tech got held up because a kid in the class next door passed out & had to call an ambulence.

oh, i wanted to mention, justin, we got passed on rt 80 by a brown... i wanna say an older international semi with a sleeper. with MN plates, hauling a trailer for a company based in st. paul (?) MN. first thing i thought of was your pop-in law to be. hope he is having a smooth run

chris, i saw what you had about the blizzak tires in yesterdays thred, i just noticed the wheels i got for free have 2 decent ones mounted on em, lol. i would say they are a good tire, they sponser this event which is just too cool, IMO. would be awsome to run in a 5th gen!
