random stuff

Man, I know from whence you are coming - - - I had them in my right eye (upper right quadrant of my head) in 1995 and it was not the most pleasant experience, as you well know. My doctor put me in the Hospital for 5 days with an IV drip of acyclovere (???) and it helped some but resting or sleeping comfortably was out of the question for several weeks. It's an itch you can't scratch and a soreness you can't rub for some reason.

I'm wondering, however, can you take the shingles shot if you've already had them? Seems like someone told me that you couldn't or it didn't do any good - - - can't remember which.

Now that I think about it, I'm wondering if that could have lead to my recent detached Retina problems??? Hmmmm

Good Luck with your recovery and I hope you don't get a relapse which they told me was possible - - - so far I haven't had any problem and I hope you don't either.

Em

Hmm.
Just looked it up in my Oxford English Reference Dictionary.
It isn't there.

But it sure sounds impressive!

Dictionary, 'old school'

Look it up on the web, it's there, so it's gotta be true!

If you had Chicken Pox as a child, you have the Shingles virus in your body.
My doctor asked if I had CP as a kid, I said yeah. She gave me a shot for Shingles. My insurance refused to pay for it, so I paid the Doc $93.00.

Tech, have you had the Shingles yet? I know that you have to have had CP in order to get the Shingles but what I'm wondering is CAN you take the shot after having the Shingles???? Any ideas on that one??? IMHO, it's damned sure worth the $$$$$ if it will keep you from getting it.

I have not had shingles, but apparently you can get it more than once if you haven't had the shot......

thanks for the link - - - been 18 years since I had it so I think I'll pass on the Shot with fingers crossed of course- - - at my age I'm pretty picky about what Drugs (aka chemicals) that I put in my body because of the side effects that "most" of them have

Why I HATE full moon wheel covers:
"Because, after you have some miles on your Old Body, it can be a job just to check the tire pressure. With Full Moons you have to remove them first and then replace afterwards!" Maybe there should be a maximum age restriction on owning this stuff? Or at least a physical before you can purchase it????? :LOL::LOL::LOL::LOL::LOL:

drill bit and drill motor can fix that pretty quick Meller!

in all honesty i find myself of late even when sober doing things and questioning the resolve .. my driving is beginning to scare me as much as folks who ride with me ..my alertness has greatly diminished ..i offer you proof .. i know i put the nozzle in my tank and went inside and paid for my gas .. what i dont know is why i drove away with the nozzle still in my tank ...

Hoss, I don't think they'll ever be able to pin that one on you so just stay quite and contact your lawyer ASAP!

That HAS crossed my mind, Mike, but so has some different covers ! I should be able to sell a full set of 14" and 16" for enuff to buy some cool Vintage "something or others?" - - - maybe Dodge Lancer Spinners? yes I"m "Lost in the Fifties"

What really pisses me off is I usually forget to pump the gas too!

i know some of you guys on here start with some pretty bad looking stuff but unless this is a one of a kind shelby coupe or something this thing better be on the way to the crusher ...

I'd take the wheels

I'll take the rollback

if it is a K engine car, the 9
in rear end and front apron , L and R where the engine number is stamped are worth keeping with the title.
