ORIGINAL: AW1SteveLike I said a couple of days ago , allergies are weird. you can go your whole life not having any , then you run into the one thing that triggers it, then "Poof", suddenly you are allergic too everything! My whole life, I'd been allergic to nothing but cats and ragweed. Then I showed up in Guam, found an exotic type of lawn grass, and suddenly I'm allergic to everything!. Previously I'd been all over the country and an a fair part of the world, and no allergies. Even the tropics in Puerto Rico and Panama did nothing. But one stupid type of yard grass was the trigger. That's all it takes my friend, that's all it takes. [:D]

Maybe youre allergic to bald assed boonie cats. [:'(]

This allergy stuff is frightening, btw. I will not claim anything for myself, as I am a stereotypical "nice Jewish boy" and all the nerdiness, dorkiness, bad eyesight and sinus trouble that entails. But she grew up in a rural setting, where any possible hay fever would have come from actual hay. And she had never had allergies until about 3 years after arriving in the US. WTF is going on here?! [X(]


I was grieved by allergies for many years. I learned two years ago that most people have low Vitamin D levels, which causes the immune system to be ineffective against allergies (and other bad stuff). I started taking 6,000 I/U of Vit D3 every day and now allergies are a minor annoyance at worst. Vit D is not expensive...Sam's has the cheapest I've seen.

Hmm....thanks for the tip Radar. I'll pick up some tomorrow and give it a shot. At this point, I'd pray to the gods of Olympus if it'll help. [:D]

Don't expect overnight relief, it takes some time to get your levels up to the proper levels. Since I don't get outside all that much (ultra violet rays produce Vit D in the body), I take the supplements all year long.

In good news Lincoln City have managed to avoid relegation again this year, although it was close.  Next season, I'm going out on a limb and predicting another season of mediocrity.

You daredevil, you..... [:'(]

Sounds rather clandestine.  Are you sure you're not really a "company man?"  [:'(]

As I recall, his wife went on a humanitarian mission with her church to an Islamic country. Apparently, the Martian will not be outdone. [:'(]

I'm going with her this year. Quite certain I will die by sublimation from the heat.

Taking the kid to sleep over at a friend's house, and have laid in "Sherlock Holmes" and "The Blind Side" to watch with my lovely bride as we wait for the rains to roll in.  It's a good Saturday.  [8D]

Mike, have I ever mentioned that your contentment with life is absolutely disgusting when compared to the lengths the rest of us will go to to drive ourselves bananas over insignificant crap? [:D]

Thanks, Yuri, I do try. [:'(]

I credit a lot of my outlook to my dearly departed dad, who lived by 2 rules:

1. Don't sweat the small stuff.
2. It's all small stuff. [&o][&o][&o]

Having spent a bit of time with you at a ballgame on just a moderately warm evening, I suspect you should make your farewell post on THE THREAD!!! before heading on your trip. [:D]

I'm tellin 'ya, you need to become a major hockey fan. [;)]

I can't afford it. [:D] I do like it though. It's a condensed form of soccer, my first love, so I have some appreciation for it. Plus, it is exquisitely cold. [:'(]

I'll make a nice farewell address before I head to the tropics and my certain demise. Hopefully I can save some bipedal lives before I succumb to the evil Sol.
