GM's thread about nothing (18 Viewers)

A lot of hormone stuff is quack science, but a lot of it works. Maybe it's placebo affect or real difference, who knows. But I saw people who had been in bed with chronic pain for years resume normal lives. Regardless, wishing you the best.

 
Almost through Season 3 of "It's Always Sunny." Still making me laugh my ### off.

I also shaved my back for the first time today in the shower. Either I've been blind for years or hair has started growing in mysterious places as I age.

Thanks for all the kind words, guys. Sara's intracranial pressure was a little high, but still in the normal range, so that is not causing them, but they're going to run some labs on the spinal fluid.

Of course, a side effect of lumbar puncture? A "spinal headache".

Tough stuff. Hope it gets better. I used to work for a doctor that manipulated hormone levels. I got fired because he came to realIze I though he was full of shot. But a lot of patients swore by his treatment for pain relief. Have you guys looked in to any hormone allergy stuff?

They definitely get worst near "that time" and she is taking some hormone stuff. She has also looked into some hormone therapy stuff but some of it seemed like quack science.

Have you bought some essential oils from our gb Frosty yet?

Don't even get me started on this ####. Yes, she bought some a while back.

Don't do that. If you shave it it just grows back faster.

Not sure what you used but this is pretty awesome.

It's a breeze to use, it reaches every spot with ease and you don't need to be in the shower.

Agree. I weep for having started it.

HOW ABOUT OUR LEONYS MARTIN?

 
"Goon" isn't a great movie but probably worth it for one line.

Love interest breaks up with her BF and starts crying to our hero. He says "Why are you crying? Did you just watch Rudy?"

I might have peed a little :lmao:

Thanks for the spoiler tag, chief. Now that's one less laugh I'll have.

Oh and the groom cried while reading the vows that he wrote. Total [f]ag move.

It's embarrassing just reading that. How did you not bust out laughing?

The funny part is the groom is blue collar, oil-field guy. He and his brothers are yoked as F. Obvious gym rats . And there he is, crying like **** Vermeil watching "Marley and Me".

Even better is his bride didn't cry when she read her vows.

No. Unless Vince Young finds another year of eligibility since he seems to be otherwise uncommitted.

Just sent in my renewal check for season tailgate parking. It's a good year in the bentley house regarding of how it goes on the field.

 
FURNACE CREEK, Calif. (AP) — Associated Press photographer Chris Carlson is no stranger to heat. He grew up just outside Palm Springs, Calif. On Friday, he returned to his desert roots, leaving his home near Los Angeles and driving to the hottest place on earth on one of the hottest days of the year. Below, he describes what it is like to be in triple digit heat in Death Valley:
___

By 9 a.m., the two bags of ice I loaded in the cooler are gone and the floor of my rental car looks like a storage bin at a recycling plant. Hydration is essential.

I know what to expect in Death Valley: Unrelenting heat so bad it makes my eyes hurt, as if someone is blowing a hair dryer in my face. I don't leave CDs or electronics in the car because they could melt or warp. I always carry bottles of water.

But I still make mistakes. I forgot my oven mitts, the desert driving trick I learned as a teenager after burning my hands too many times on the steering wheel. And my rental car is black, adding several degrees to the outside temperature of 127. When the digital thermometer at the Furnace Creek visitor center ticks up to 128, a few people jump out of their cars to take a picture. The record temperature for the region — and the world — is 134 degrees, reached a century ago.

I try to work in flip-flops, but the sun sears the tops of my feet, and I am forced to put shoes on. My cellphone, pulled from my shirt pocket, is so hot that it burns my ear when I try to take a call from my wife.

One of my first stops is at the Furnace Creek Golf Course, a place I've played in the past. The guy in the pro shop tells me they've only had two players all morning. Both were employees.

I don't stay long. The camera around my neck gets so hot it stops working. An error message flashes a warning at me.

I'm surprised to find out that hotels are packed with visitors. This is Death Valley's busy time of year. Tourists, mostly from Europe, come to experience extreme heat, or they just didn't know what they were getting into. Death Valley is between the Grand Canyon and Yosemite, and many people add it to their itinerary.

Tourists are out today, but they rarely emerge from their cars. They drive through the brown, cracked landscape, peering out at the vast desert and occasionally rolling down the windows, but only briefly.

Those who do attempt to get out of their cars park in sparse shade, sprint to local landmarks, snap a few photos, and then jump back in their cars. Most were out at daybreak. By midday, few people can be seen.

That seems a bit melodramatic. I've been in Vegas when it was 115 and the though of oven mitts never crossed my mind. I was playing in the back yard with my boys at 108 today (with humidity) in Austin. Can't imagine that 128 is really all that much worse.

Depends on the air quality also. We get these warnings all the time in the Northeast:

The Department of Health warns that unhealthy levels of ozone can cause throat irritation, coughing, chest pain, shortness of breath, increased susceptibility to respiratory infection and and aggravation of asthma and other respiratory ailments.

There was an ozone alert here last week when the temp was "only" 92 and it was hard to breathe. I can't even fathom 128.

 
White House Down is very entertaining. I'm not saying its a great movie, but if you go into the theater with with semi-low expectations and a popcorn movie mentality, you are going to have a very good time.

The Heat, on the other hand is amusing, but never really breaks through to funny. Overly long and derivative with really nothing new except the energy and comedic brilliance of Melissa McCathy. And I guess Bullock was really pretty decent, but it just never was able to kick the funny up where I needed it to be.

I just re-watched And the Band Played On on On Demand and I'd have a hard time leaving it off my all-time Top 10. Just a brilliant movie.

I'm kind of proud that I wrote a grammatically correct sentence using on on on.
