2much,

I didn't mean to imply that I would stay away. My post was a cry for help from head lice/louse(s) that if I started spewing nonsense (okay, more than normal nonsense) that he would show me the door. IOW, ban me from this thread. I'm sure it can be done. Or at least everyone put me of their ignore list. I really don't mind making a fool of myself; I just would hate for there to be witnesses.

Just got in from today's workover and I must say that the person who:

1. invented the MRI "chamber"; and
2. the protocol for treatments

should be taken out back and a wooden stake driven through his or her heart. Assuming they have a heart. My bet is they have a milk jug full of icy cold water where the heart should be. But as I seem to say so much, that is simply my personal opinion.

And while I am at it, the guy who invented back seats should be dragged out back and shot also. I went with my youngest son and his wife to see the house they are building. I was in the back seat. The back seat of his automobile is designed for children and "little people". And then there is the matter of my big feet, size 15. I had to use the jaws of life to extricate my feet which were stuck under the seat in front of me. But, if we had an accident, there would have been deployed a side safety curtain airbag thingy. But I was wedged in so tight, I figure any crash that exerted less than 5G's on me would not cause me to budge one iota.

But anyway, fair warning: by this time on Thursday or Friday, I should be incoherent. Okay, more incoherent than normal. I try to diffuse the jokes as I go. I actually feel a little goofy right now. Of course, I got zero sleep last night so that may have something to do with it.

I am lost.

What was the question?

You are even better without sleep...I prefer goofy over physics, sorry!

I agree with the backseat...makes you nauseated even without MRI torture...did you know that you can practice for your MRI by sticking your head in the oven (turned off of course) and then asking your children, friends, neighbors, enemies, whomever to bang pots and pans on top as the timer is on counting down the eternal minutes as they pass...being everso careful to remain still...you can gradually work yourself up to the 45 minute point

Did your MRI have music wired in? Have you tried yoga or meditation? Just curious...very therapeutic

R U still working during all this?

You should probably get some sleep or I should probably start sleeping more on your behalf...I know, I'm too kind!

Keep us posted on your venture...pardon the lack of understanding, of course your twin P knew exactly what you were talking about...if you were women you'd be on the same cycle I'm sure

BBFN

I estimate that your treatments took effect approximately in February according to your benchmark.

I'll be thinking about you during your treatments, Todd. But if you start spewing nonsense, I probably won't notice, because I don't understand half of the stuff that is said here.

I'm still working on the 2 roads on the island with liars.

Vicarious sleep. Possibilities.

Why not vicarious MRI?

And, no the oven trick does not do justice. For one, an oven is much too big. More like one of those old galvanized gargabe cans while teen hooligans beat on the sides with hammers.

Today is Monday right? I hope it is not Tuesday because I know I have something to do on Tuesday, although at the moment I cannot remember what.

It IS Tuesday Todd

here anyway

Care to elaborate for those of us in the outer cicrcle?

I hate it when you need to explain a joke.

Check Todd's sign up date, Pio's comment about when the treatment took effect and put 2 + 2 together to make 4.

Todd,
Don't you use a Palm or some advanced electronic device to track your where abouts and what nots????

You can get a GPS to go with it and then you wouldn't have to wonder where you were or what day it is!!!!

Of course you'd have to remember to charge...

I frequently dictate reminders to myself and I am not undergoing any treatment...is that bad???

Believer,
I have to say, I'm right there with you in the Toddfog...I need an interpreter for most of the banter...brother P seems to be able to follow quite well however...are we missing something or is it just brain cells (too funny I originally typed Brian cells!!!!)

Gosh, what was the joke? I missed it...

Toddfog? That would imply that I don't know what I am talking about. Right? Pio has no idea BTW.

ToddAC,

Too bad you didn't invent the MRE instead of the MRI. A lot more people benefit from the MRE.

2much,

ToddAC does have an electronic device to indicate his whereabouts. The Atlanta police fitted him with it. Nice ankle bracelet. Accesorizes almost anything. Somebody sent out a bunch of letters to all ToddAC's neighbors saying there was a sexual predator living there and, well, the police got the wrong man. Best laid plans and all...

Just to clarify something I posted yesterday (please forgive me ToddAC but it makes me mad):

ToddAC's wife asked him to stop seeking medical treatment because it was raising her medical insurance premiums.

The sexual predator turns out to be OM. And I will fit him with a bracelet and use a crimping tool to secure it. But not around his ankle...

Emails from STBXW continue. For someone who hates the computer, she has been busy. She is gushing about PR winning the Miss Universe title. BTW, she fainted because her gown was made of chains. Under the hot lights and all. I guess they don't grow polyester and nylon in PR. Good bananas and coffee however. And great mangoes.

And no 2much, I am not working while all this goes on. I haven't worked in a while. Fortunately, I won one of the big mega millions jackpots. No, wait a minute, was that a dream? Let me look at my bank statement...

Todd has gone from a handsome prince on Iville to a frog here. Somebody kiss him quick. I'm sure not volunteering.

Pio,

The issue with my health care costs is that STBXW works for a hospital holding company. The hospital that I frequent is owned by the company. At any time, an employee can access her account and see all the charges that I have incurred. That embarasses her. Her father taught her shame and embarassment well. In the aggregate, of course, the more claims the higher the premiums become.

She said is in an email tonight that she tried her best to care for me but that she is not a nurse. Okay. And when I was in the hospital, she said she doesn't do well with hospitals. No, because visiting me kept her away from OM. Okay again. Nothing like being a burden to your former soulmate.

No wonder she cheated on you. How could you have been so inconsiderate? I hope you have learned something through all this. What nerve you had to go and get a brain tumor without any POJA.

Doesn't like hospitals but works for a hospital holding company. Hmmm...

I am not sure the ankle bracelet will be large enough for OM's neck but you do have a large Columbian clamp don't you? Don't those come in pairs?

Isn't it almost Wednesday in NZ? Has anybody heard about KiwiJ's boss talk?
