    Default Im sick and i want my Mommy!

    Sure most of you think of me as Russell Crow in the Gladiator or Mel Gibson in BraveHeart {whats with all the English people?} but the flue bug has laid me low.

    In the Past 3 days i have had one orange, A week old slice of Pizza i saw in the back of the fridge, Some cheese with Penicillin on it and one gallon of OJ.

    I have had the hippy hippy shakes and curled up in a fetal position under my rug rats blankie, Now thats true as we had that blankie around and i never saw what was on it but now i like the rug rats although i have not a clue who they are.

    I am reduced to taking shots of Nyqull like a alcoholic even in the morn.

    I have gone through 2 rolls of paper towels blowing my nose.

    Used the netie pot and ran the Mississippi through my brain canals.

    This is the first day i could even read the forum, Thank God there was at least one MC thread.

    How can there be 100 TV stations and not ONE i am interested in?.

    After awhile i just put on TELEMUNDO to see the Hot Latin Chicks although there is not a spark in me..

    I shall spare the reader of more details of this sickness but rest assured most revolting.

    The bed is 3 feet away i think i will make a break for it..

    Wish me luck!

    td,

    I warned you. But did you listen? NO! Kissing PC Ford was bound to get you into some sort of trouble. Now you're BOTH under the weather, and pitiful objects of pity and disgusting solicitude. I can only suggest that you keep watching the latin channel, and when those cute young latinas start looking good again... you're cured!

    I am in fine health past the bone issues. I think you really need to brush up on reading comprehension.

    You're correct. I erred in that this post should have been addressed to bs... not to td. I'm sure you'll forgive me, as we all know that td & bs are so closely related

    Sorry about that. Our family just had a go-round with a rotavirus (aka "stomach flu"). My wife got it on a Thursday, Kid #1 got it on a Saturday, Kid #2 on Monday...and I got it on Tuesday. Nothing like 24-48 hours of leaking at both ends, as it were. Whoof!

    I feel for you. I suggest hot whiskey, lemon and honey. Doesn't actually get you better...but it sure is tasty!

    Bobby, remember to stay hydrated. Have someone go get you some Powerade or something similar. You'll have to gag it down but you'll get better much quicker. You gotta have liquids in you.

    Oh and btw, then 2 guys you mentioned-- they be Aussies, not Brits. I know, they all got that funny accent...

    bobby,

    At the bottom of the very cool Wallace Monument, there's an incredibly cheesy statue of Wallace that is modeled after Mel Gibson...

    Looks like the birds like his statue.

    Why's he got a chain on his bowling ball? Is the ball return broken?

    Use the Neti pot with a light solution of colloidal silver. I suffer hard with having my nose broke so many times. It kicks sinus infections faster than anything else.

    Sorry to hear. I and my kids swear by my chicken soup. At the first sign, I or them will make a big pot, and take it like a script. Every 4 hours a half a cup.(Even just the broth) Really helps. I've seen swollen lymph nodes go down in a few hours. Not sure if canned works tho.[QUOTE]With more cold and flu remedies on the market today than ever before ... to the Mayo Clinic, researchers have proven that chicken soup does in fact relieve cold and flu ...

    I use my late father's Clan Home Recipe instead of the NyQuill.

    One air line size mini bottle of Drambuie , 2 Oz. good Single Malt. I usually put 3 oz. in and that is my drink for the whole evening or whatever.

    Combine in a proper Scotch/whiskey glass.

    Add 3 or 4 Scotch Rocks from the freezer. Swish in the glass for 3 or 4 minutes and it is ready.

    Repeat as needed.

    Two of these should put the average person to bed better than the "Green Shyt".


    Some folks call this a "Rusty Nail".

    The standard mix for a Rusty Nail however is 2 oz. of "blended scotch" .

    Get well soon, bobbys. Staying away from cheese and old pizza will help.

    Bobby, I didn't know you're a single man.

    A good wife would make you eat a bunch of chopped raw garlic. Washed down by hot milk, brought to boil with sliced onion and honey ....lol...

    And cough syrup made with equal amounts of whiskey, honey and lemon juice.


    Get well soon.

    I do not see how you could use a neti pot, they are disgusting, that must be the Braveheart in you. The moldy cheese is a winner, though, you will be back with a vengeance in no time and saved yourself some dough on a 'script.
