    The Flu

    I've got it, had it since Friday night and it's been kicking my butt ever since.

    Spent the whole weekend - the whole LONG weekend including Monday - in bed.

    Oh yeah, today is my birthday. Worst birthday I've ever had. I just called in sick tomorrow too.

    And yes, I had a flu shot.

    Happy Birthday if nothing else.

    Seriously, that sucks. I had it a couple days last week too, but I ODed on vitamin C and it seemed to help. And didn't last as long as yours.
    Back in '82, I used to be able to throw a pigskin a quarter mile.

    I'm a Rockstar junkie (which is LOADED with b vitamins). I can't remember the last time I was sick. It's been probably close to a year now...




    HAPPY B-DAY - Here's hoping you feel better soon...
    It's only "science" if it supports the narrative.

    Hope you feel better man, that sucks..

    Next time try one of these, I swear by em. You know when you feel that strange tickle in the back of your throat before you start gettign sick? Pop one of these in your mouth and you wont get sick. I SWEAR! I keep a bottle in my car glove box. Comes in real handy since i mostly notice it when I'm driving home from work/exposure.

    Oh yeah they say "great tasting", they lie. It's the worst tasting crap on the planet. It's like chewing on a piece of cherry flavored tin foil that you dug out of your grandmas garden. But still better than getting sick.

    Happy Birthday, Beech. I may be too late, but get well soon.

    (Not bragging, but I remember the last time I had the flu it was terrible. I missed a full week of work,,,,January, 1976 it was.)
