It seems all the "tree huggers" and "Jesus disciples" are out in full force today. Can't we all just come here and get good info about pain pills and maybe crack a joke once in a while to make light of things? It cracks me up when people take things so personally. There's people dying of cancer everyday and some people whine because their poor feelings got hurt or their recovery is affected by words. Gimme a freakin' break.
Kiwi, love your posts.

Not sure if it is a full moon but the kids were nutty today.....lol
I have a question for you.....You mention in a post about something, not sure what you called it but it sounded like a test to measure your physical pain, could you tell me something about that. I never heard of anything like that...
Thanks and take care,
Tina

It's Biofeedback Training, Tina. You have a monitor hooked up to your finger and it measures pain intensity. Through training and an audio tape you learn to relax and it reduces stress and pain. It's almost like the monitor you get when you are pregnant....when it spikes, it hurts.
Also from this you can tell if you are a vascular or musculoskeletal responder to pain. For me, I was a vascular responder so anxiety increases the pain due to increase heart rate and blood flow. It's a great therapy. You try and get your mind to control the pain...it does work to some extent.
There's also electroshock therapy...

Thanks Eddie.....that sounds like really cool stuff. Gonna have to look into that more. Not to sure about the electroshock, sounds alittle painful in itself....lol
Now for you I posted earlier today, Interesting Info, and put a link in for some pain management stuff. Read some neat things on there, like loss of gray matter in the brain as we age can lead to back pain, and here I thought only cocaine ate away the gray matter....drug companies and the what they give to docs as incentives to push their products.....Check it out if you have time.
Oh and BTW yes I am in South Jersey, you from here to or up north?

T - It depends on how you define SJ and CJ. I am around Princeton. Actually, closer to 8A off the NJ turnpike.
Oh, thanks for the info.

IT WAS A FULL MOON on the 26 of dec. but they come out the strang ones because of the new year so have anice hoilday poopie
Eddie- is VH still around? Whats the story with them?
Danny - Word on the street was that they weren't getting along with Sammy at the end of the tour. I had front row seats, center stage in South Dakota to see them on the 13th of November and I couldn't make it (8 days into withdrawal). If I had to do it again, I would have stopped after the concert. I made 8 shows this summer though...bebopped around the country. Had a blast. I want to get down to Cabo this Spring. Do some Marlin fishing. Bring the kids to NJ...I'll take you on the boat. Kids love it. Even though it's a fishing boat, I can go 50+.
I heard "Rush" and "Yes" today also...played the axe for 3 hours too. Reflexes are a bit slow but I have to exercise my mind. I feel like I am starting to snap out of this benzo protracted withdrawal crap. BTW...Paul is bummin'. I've been talking to him. He's gotta start turnin' the corner soon. I feel bad. I know what he is going through. Opiates are a walk in the park compared to this.

Eddie...been away for awhile so I missed what is going on with Paul. Is he ok? Tell him I'm thinking about him.
As far as the full moon. I would say so. Like I said earlier, we're all acting like addicts. OmyGod.
Have a great night.

Hey Danny...

Littlebeach you would probaly do the electric tuna danceLOL I'm only being a smart a-- so please don't be angry.mmmj
Eddie, see now that sucks, Last thing you want to do in wd's is go to a concert. Well, I hope they come back around this summer. You never know. I'd actually like to see DLR back in the band. Since you like Sammy, you must like Montrose.
I know Paul is bummin. We IM all the time. I think he has turned the corner. It took me 14 weeks. I think he's going to be A-OK...he needs to ride it out and stop beating himself up. He's such a great guy. I wish I could help him more.

Just want to say hey danny and Led Zeppelin was one of the BEST!!!!!mj
Cowgirl - Paul is hanging tough. He has not been able to work because of vision and balance issues. He is trying to compare apples and oranges though (me and him). He can't understand how I can work and he tries to draw parallels that he shouldn't. I totally understand how he feels. He feels like a fire hydrant that's been pissed on. He is hanging in there. That's just fine for now. I will certainly pass on your well wishes!
Are you a Dallas fan? I am.
Danny - I was listening to Montrose yesterday. Lots of music yesterday. I have my daughter for the next five days starting today so I tried to get some "me" time in. BTW, I would love to see it, but the DLR thing ain't happening after the MTV music award fiasco.
Kerry - Electroshock is tough. They take two leads and put them under your arms and then hit you with 120,000 volts every 3 seconds for 6 hours....just kidding. I have not done any homework on that therapy.

Oh s*** haven't even heard where they are marching this year, city has nothing better to do but mess with the route..

Tina - You just threw a curveball in my program...I forgot about the parade. I guess I will take her to the parade, disney on ice, and try and find a hotel in the city. Got to be back early on Sunday though....bible school....
Boy, I appreciate my mom and dad more and more every day.
