Crap, Buddy Miles died too! He went from playing in Jimi Hendrix’s band to a vacation at the Graybar Hotel. He also played drums with the second best guitarist of the time, Mike Bloomfield. Truly, nowhere to go but down for poor Buddy.

Now, my niece is the same age as Britney and is bipolar. She acted up a lot over the years and will probably need to live with my brother and wife for many years (along with her two little kids). I’d just heard that Britney is also bipolar, the Rolling Stone article describes her episodes well and it reveals a very bipolar young woman from my experiences. I won’t be making jokes about Britney any more. Buying two parakeets and naming them after her sons does not sit well with me. I feel that if she doesn’t get help, she will end up like Jimi, Mike, Elvis, Janis, …

I just participated in a major move for my company’s plant in Torrance (hybrid vehicles), moving the entire IT setup myself and completing the project yesterday. Five months in the planning. I am going to celebrate by getting my first colonoscopy. I wonder what kind of drugs I can get from this?

My wife only got a script for high-powered iburofen from her dentist. She said she didn’t need them, but I paid for them anyway. Folks, these are the kind of iburofen you can get OTC in Thailand.

Crap, William F. Buckley died.

This must be why Nancy hasn’t posted today. Poor girl, she is too distaught. I’m sure we all feel the same here.

But come on, girl. Chin up. Tally ho. Pull yourself together and try to put on a brave face. Do it for William.

Good luck Mary! I’ll be keeping my fingers and toes crossed. My son interviewed for a new job more than two weeks ago, and he knows they have called some of his references. Then yesterday they called and asked for a copy of his diploma, and his most recent job reviews. All sounds very positive. It will give him a $2.40 cent per hour raise if he gets it. Which will help with the college loan repayments for sure.

I recall taking two Vicodins with most of a half pint of bourbon…

Kids, do not try this at home…

Mary, good luck on the job interview. I don’t know the situation, but I hope it is a good one and that you are bargaining from a position of strength.

Mixing things…
The good doctor Thompson wrote that for ending stalemates, forcing the combatants into a room with a single bare light bulb burning, having them sit at a table on hard chairs and forcing them to alternate boiling hot cups of coffee with shots of Wild Turkey will have something breaking in short order.

I recall taking two Vicodins with most of a half pint of bourbon to kill intense knee pain so I could slug out another shift in a factory.
Do what ya gotta do.

Tramadol? Addicting? Hmmm…

I had shoulder surgery last October, and my ortho had me try a few different pain killers; hydocodone worked best. Took care of the pain and helped me sleep, never felt it was habit-forming. Early on he had me try tramadol for work periods, as it was non drowsy. He said it was prescribed for truckers, for example, needing pain killer that wouldn’t put them to sleep. So I tried it and…nothing. Didn’t even affect the pain as well as extra-strength Tylenol. And, of course it didn’t put me out at all.

Mary and Brian:
The picture of Mackenzie and Valerie shows the positive effects of having some meat on your bones–no use in starving it all off. It’s like the French say–after 40, a woman has to decide what she cares about most–her face or her ass. If the former is sufficiently filled out , the latter will be big, but if the butt is skinny enough, a 40+ face will often look haggard.

I second the above, Mary. Fingers crossed.

I could always interview on Vicodin. It would relax me.
What’s sort of sad is I have a good job now that I mostly love. There’s just some bad shit going on here.
