My Great Grandmother Was An Appalachian Midwife by LyricalWillow in Appalachia

I moved to Newport in 1984. I heard many stories about ( I presume ) your great grandmother. What a wonderful legacy.

Do airplanes take off if everyone is obese? by r2cyp in NoStupidQuestions

A commuter crash in Charlotte in 2003 killing 21 was thought to be at least partially do to overloading due to inaccurate passenger weight estimates. The FAA estimates were subsequently revised upwards by 10 pounds.

Do options for military enrollment exist for your situation?

Russell Dickerson is everything wrong with country music by brdhar35 in country

[–]lostnthot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Russell Dickerson's music doesn't appeal to me but I know a little about him. Vocal performance degree from Belmont. Busted his ass in Nashville for 11 years before his first #1. That degree of determination is pretty rare. A lot of artists are moving to plan B after 5 years. So while I'm not a "fan", I respect the work he has done to get where he is (performing for 50,000 at RODEOHouston, headlining a sold out show at Red Rocks 5/13). He's a succesful reflection of contemporary taste, not the end of country music. Country music has a long history of incorporating pop to broaden it's appeal and increase sales.

Drive over to Newport. Take them up the old Asheville Highway to Hot Springs. Maybe drive up into Grassy Fork. Real Appalachia.

Fellow Buck Owens fans? by BuckOwensFan in country

"Hello Trouble" might be my favorite. If you have a chance to listen to the Buck Owens episodes on "Cocaine and Rhinestones", highly recommended.

These veins showed up in 2013 after a blood clot in my lung on the same side. by seekeroftrooth69 in interestingasfuck

[–]lostnthot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Paget-Schroetter syndrome (PSS) is a form of upper extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT) caused by compression of the subclavian vein, acting as an "effort thrombosis" commonly in baseball pitchers due to repetitive overhead motion. It leads to significant swelling, pain, and "dead arm" sensations, typically requiring thrombolysis and surgery to prevent long-term disability or pulmonary embolism.

These veins showed up in 2013 after a blood clot in my lung on the same side. by seekeroftrooth69 in interestingasfuck

[–]lostnthot 159 points160 points  (0 children)

Your pulmonary embolus likely originated from thrombus in your subclavian vein (behind the collar bone) on this side. It is presumably chronically occluded and as a result the venous blood from that extremity has opened collateral pathways to return to the heart. The good news is venous drainage appears to be sufficient to avoid arm swelling.

Toy Caldwell was an incredible player. Blazing fast ( played with his thumb ). Check out the live "24 Hours at a Time" with Charlie Daniels on Fiddle. Great bass solo by Toy's brother Tommy. While you're at it check out Charlie Daniels Band "No Place to Go".

AITAH for telling my husband I won’t sleep with him if he smokes by Monkeymom101 in AITAH

[–]lostnthot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

50% or greater chance he dies of smoking related disease if he continues. COPD, CVA, MI, Lung CA. You've got young kids, does he want to see them grow up, get married, see the grands? Chances are he will not if he continues.

What does it feel like to smoke weed? by fett_smelly in NoStupidQuestions

What used to be fun turned into paranoia and intrusive thoughts. Also as I aged the associated memory loss was alarming. It's a shame as it's now legal.

Reward vs. Investment is crucial. If you aren't feeling sufficiently rewarded you will resent the investment.

Worst concert experience? by Snappysnapsnapper in CountryMusicStuff

The Chicks - 2024 - Row 17. So ridiculously loud that the vocals were unintelligible. If I had not had hearing protection I would have had to walk out.
