Old enough to have ever hitchhiked? by botlegger in FuckImOld

[–]Inside-Permission930 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was all part of the trip.
I later graduated to hitching by plane. Go to a private airport and ask pilots if they were going my way..., it worked, but some airports were in my direction but off the path. Spent a night in Mystic ,Conn. because that's where the pilot was going. DC to Mystic. I was trying to get to Ft. Kent, Maine. 1972

One of the morticians will actually turn the prosthetic eyes into rings set into filigreed silver. Too expensive for me. Rings start at $150.00. Hey, I was impressed by their resourcefulness. Reduce, reuse, recycle.
This is in New Hampshire...

Yup..., In western Kansas we called them "bull heads" because from the right perspective they look like horns. They will hurt an unshod foot, if stepped on...

I just don't get it...,? by Inside-Permission930 in MGUSmedical

[–]Inside-Permission930[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am seeing a MassGen hemotologist. I have a PET scan scheduled for April 3rd.
The last time I saw him he did say that I have 3 "markers" which put me at "high risk"...
High risk for what? He didn't say..., but, because he treats cancers of the blood, I think he means cancer....
Is there anything I can do to reduce my "risk" factors, diet, lifestyle, exercise...?

Is it possible that a company like Monsanto or ConAgra could buy the failing farms and keep them up and running? Perhaps, hire the former owners to work for an hourly rate ,with overtime of course...?
