Thank you for the info. As for the 85 out of 100,000, I pulled that from two different Internet articles. One was on eMedicine.com which is usually pretty reliable. It's a juggling act about the Meloxicam. I am on Prilosec which can increase Meloxicam's levels and on Diovan HCT for control of blood pressure. Meloxicam might antagonize the diuretic in the Diovan and might injure the kidney in combination with the angiotensin receptor blocker. Luckily while my BP is high it's not super high. I decided today to not take the BP med (luckily my BP med isn't one with rebound hypertension if you stop it). I'll monitor my BP -again my BP is usually in the 150's over 90's without meds not talking 160's over 110 or anything-and I took 7.5 mg of the Meloxicam along with only 20 mg instead of 40 mg of my Prilosec. I fell/slipped out of the bed this morning (I have sleep apnea and sleep at the edge of the bed for convenience). While I've had low back pain-I have it now-the back of my left leg hurts. Hopefully I just strained it when I fell and it's not my entire back that is off. Another wonderful thing, I don't have insurance or Medicaid, don't ask me why. But I'm not looking forward to an MRI Bill. Gman

For about three weeks now I have had this upper arm pain on the right. It was like a deep ache. I tried massage, heating pad, hot tub, and ibuprofen without much relief. The pain wasn't crying out loud hurting but I'd rate it a 6 or 7 out of 10. And while I didn't notice specific weakness, the arm was in effect weak because of the pain. Even getting out of the car was more difficult. I gradually noticed the right side of my neck felt stretched. And then I noticed that the left arm was beginning to hurt too. And I had tingling in my left hand. So I went to the doctor today (Monday). They did neck xrays. Apparently the spaces between my lower cervical vertebra are compressed. So the nerves that exit the spine are being compressed- and that's causing my symptoms. He gave me something called Meloxicam an anti-inflammatory. Anyone else have experience with this? I looked it up. I always knew I was special. This apparently only occurs in about 85 out of 100,000 adults. And darn-I was just about to apply to Kink.com to be a new model. But I'm not sure being suspended or on some kind of spinning rotating platform would be good for my neck. Gman

While not Henry Cavill and not a butt picture, here is another mighty appealing Superman who is probably familiar to many of us. https://mobile.twitter.com/DeanMonroeX/status/532904707237638146/photo/1 Gman

But maybe not with Eliad- at least not to begin with. Assuming his tallywacker was not photoshopped and really is as gargantuan as depicted, I think most people both males and females might need to gradually work their way up to it. He really seems to have one of the fabled TODs (tallywacker of death). It definitely did not seem to be a tallywacker designed for novices. I hate to say it - but looking at Eliad's tallywacker, I'm green with envy. Gman

My mother loved Paul Newman!!! I thought he was handsome. I would have liked him a bit more muscular. I'm betting if his career were translated to today, he probably would have been as the majority of Hollywood hunks have personal trainers these days at least occasionally for some roles. Gman

Not from his Pretender days, but still a few years back. He by rumor is a Friend of Dorothy. That Dorothy is one lucky gal!! http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-PIwCx7ikIhs/TaZWMoHNzRI/AAAAAAAAAPs/oXSWPnM8jAI/s1600/pretender2.png Gman

I think he is really handsome too. But he is just one of many for me. If we are going to restrict ourselves to actors/people in the public eye- I like Anderson Cooper, Henry Cavill, Cheyenne Jackson, Jonathan Gross, Max Baer, Jr in his prime, The Rock, Ron Ely in his prime, Peter Lupus, Harrison Ford, Michael T. Weiss, James Denton, Scott Bakula, Tyrone Power, --multiple others!!! Gman

Get thee behind me cheese, mayo, lettuce, Miracle Whip, cream cheese on my peanut butter sandwich. The only proper condiment is jelly- but I will grudgingly accept bananas. Nothing wrong with peanut butter on wheat or on toasted bread. Gman

Never heard of lettuce and peanut butter. And while I like lettuce, I like it mainly in salads. At hamburger joints, I usually hold the lettuce because they put so dang much on it. Gman

Pecans are great frozen!! Gman

While neither of these guys are particularly good moral role models, who could forget-- 1. Steve Garvey http://iamstevenmichael.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/JimPalmer.jpg Or 2. Jose Canseco http://img.poptower.com/pic-41805/jos-canseco.jpg Gman

I think you meant to ask me as I started the thread. On the other hand, maybe Steven knows me better than I do myself. But yes, you are exactly right. Your previous remarks on Jeremy made me think of the eternal, burning peanut butter controversy. I'm surprised no one, aside from me, who likes crunchy has chimed in. My fellow crunchy lovers must be out there, or they wouldn't sell it. Crunchy lovers unite and arise!!! The only thing you have to lose is a mass of smooth material without a pleasing texture in the roof of your mouth!! Gman

I've always liked crunchy peanut butter. The smooth peanut butter just sticks to the roof of my mouth. I want some texture to my peanut butter. In fact when I buy Jif, I usually get the extra crunchy. So what about the rest of you? Gman

I feel that way about every encounter. If I had let it or my appearance stop me, I never would have been able to hire. I usually make sure the escorts are ok with chubby (Internet code in my case for fat) guys. I don't usually with masseurs because they usually state in their ad that they are ok with bigger guys. While with escorts because the encounter may be more 'intimate,' I usually check even if they do mention in their ads that they are ok with larger guys. The few escorts/masseurs who say they aren't interested in larger guys, I don't contact. Also a few escorts over the years have told me when I contacted them that they don't do well with big guys- but very few. There was one in particular I remember in LA named James- hasn't escorted in probably close to 10 years- he had good reviews in general, but he said he had been heavy as youngster, and now he just couldn't get into being with larger guys. Gman

Whose ad? Gman

He used to live in Seattle. I never met him, but by text he seemed awfully straight. It's been several years, and I can't remember now if he was advertising as an escort, masseur or both. I used to see his ad on Backpage frequently in those days. Of course I was looking for more of a combined massage/escort experience. He definitely wasn't into bottoming. I'm not sure if he would have topped if I had wanted that. But that being said- he was honest in telling me that he couldn't supply what I wanted. Gman

Do you know this from personal experience or is that how you are reading his ad because while his ad talks about massage, it also says he is versatile, and he has the cash icon meaning escort on his ad. Gman

Orbital fractures especially if it was a blow-out fracture take a lot of force. I definitely agree with you if the story is false. But if it's not- it's definitely something to consider. Gman

I've just seen a story- I don't know whether it is true or not- that says the officer who shot Brown has an orbital fracture. If Michael Brown punched the officer hard enough to give him an orbital fracture that changes the story significantly. Gman

This might actually be a movie with gay characters I'd be willing to see. To some extent I'm not interested anymore in the straight guy/girl rom-coms. For the same reason I'm not really into the gay/buddy/comedy/romance movies either. I unfortunately don't have a group of friends, I doubt some quirky hunk is all of a sudden going to fall in love with me or want to get married. I've decided that fantasy movies like that just upset me more and more because there isn't anything in them I can hope for. I normally stay away from sad movies too. But this one looks like there is a heart to the story. Gman

I may be wrong. But I think the article I read said that whether the airline knew or not, governments like ours had been able to tell what kind of missiles had struck previous planes and knew they could reach that height. As for blaming Malaysian Airlines, I'm not- or at least not anymore than I am blaming any of the commercial airlines for plotting to fly over a war zone. I admit I wouldn't have thought about it either probably. But I'm not in the airline field. In 'perfect' hindsight, it seems to me the airlines ought to avoid all unstable areas no matter the extra flight miles involved. Gman

From my reading of the New York Times, officials new the rebels had weapons that could reach above 32,000 feet. So I'm not sure why the directive for flying at 33,000 feet was isssued. An expert I heard talking on NPR noted that there are many unsettled regions in the worl where commercial aircraft routines go. The Ukraine up until now was one of them. There is also Iraq currently.
