Re: smilesmile Join "MyOnlineTeam" Today - Chapter 50 smilesmile

Health's a nonissue, till it is!
And it all stacks up at once. I hardly ever saw a doctor other than regular check-ups until I was 45. Then the warranty expired laughing and all those injuries from years ago reasserted themselves.

In your 20's, you're invincible. In your 30's, things start to change.<snip>
I think I did most of the damage during my teens. Hundreds, maybe thousands, of high-speed collisions, mostly as a defensive back (some call this football) and years of high-impact exercises are all collecting interest now. The x-rays, CAT scans and bone scans with radioactive markers tell a story that is worse than I realized at the time.
When I was a senior in high school with my right hand and wrist in a cast for a couple of months after the last game of the season, I ran through the numbers and realized that my 2% chance of going pro (yes, that's much better than average) was not worth the risk. It gave me the courage to turn down a couple of football scholarships. My brother came to the same conclusion during his freshman year in college, when we was recovering from shoulder surgery for an injury suffered during a game.

Funny, how similar all of us old guys stories are. We are all paying for our formerly "indestructible" selves. On the other hand, the alternatives to our high maintenance lives is considerably less desirable. straight face

Re: smilesmile Join "MyOnlineTeam" Today - Chapter 50 smilesmile

Fixed one of main crunchers that was malfunctioning. Sorta a amazing how much mantainance these computers require when you run them full out 24/7! Then when they probably have done an unimaginable numbers of calculations per day I guess it is not. Probably like being amazed that one has to change the car motors oil after 3000 miles only to realize at proximately 2000 rpm on average that that is a lot of revolutions. Gerald you are scaring me! I will send Franky after you! Went from high of 105 yesterday to 57 this am. Crazy weather. Good night all!
