That is just cruel and frightening. (And to think that I used to love you only for your body. :-p)

And IF you loved me for my body, you are already well into cruel and frightening!

Likewise, Evo. I love you, and it's very comforting to know that you have my 6. I apologize to everyone for not being more communicative, but that's just my way. :rolleyes:

It might be more advantageous to install GPS chips in condoms. Really, it's only on the "morning after" that I want to know where I've been.
Hmmmm... come to think of it, I probably don't want to know...

I just Googled that. Although I can't make out any of the words, the overall sound is very pleasing. Moreover, there are some severely hormone-inducing visuals. Thanks.

Any way that I can get it. :wink:

You're in a bit of a weird place for me. While I am definitely your superior by age, you are even more my superior by education and experience. You kids just grow up too fast these days. When you brought me into PF (for which I will be forever grateful), you were a student. And now a big muckie-muck with the yellow bug company.
I can't say that I'm proud of you, since I had nothing to do with your development, but I most definitely am proud that you consider me a friend.

Glad you made it through !

Uh, I've just taken a couple of weeks out from writing because MD mis-diagnosed me with acute hay-fever when I had *severe* viral bronchitis. Just like being punched in chest and/or inhaling a pan-scrubber plus altitude sickness. Half-drowning in snot. Coughing unto twinkles every ten seconds, day and night. Fever dreams...

I was lucky, though, for when Spouse caught it from me, she developed an antibiotic-resistant secondary infection which needed several courses of meds to clear...

Well, she's now clear of it, too, and I wrote a couple of weird short SF stories as a serendipitous spin-off...

Still, for almost all of one ghastly week, we were both minutes from calling paramedics...

I'm sorry to hear about your malaise, Nik. I sounds almost exactly like what I had, except that mine was stacked on top of the pre-existing emphysema. (Mine was finally diagnosed as pneumonia, of which there are a mere 300 or so varieties. :rolleyes:)
