SICK BAY

I'm sick. I rarely get sick but today I feel lousy. The last time I got this sick was probably 5 years ago. In fact, throughout my life I've rarely been sick --- rarely been absent from work or school. Praise God for giving me healthy genes. I believe our obsession to be germ free (just like Howard Hughes) prevents our anti-bodies from developing. When I was a boy I used to get my hands very dirty --- playing with sand, mud, even mercury. And I would eat anything. My exposure to germs and dirt developed my natural immunity.

I remember when I went to Italy years back. I had heard about how expensive bottled water was and so I decided to quench my thirst with cheap wine. Bad decision. I got so drunk, a burglar could have ambushed me and I wouldn't have been able to put up a fight. So the next day I was staring at a fountain of water spewing out of a sculpture of a lion's mouth in a park. A sign said "non potabile" or "non potable water." But the water from the mountains looked so clear I thought I'd take my chances with it. And so I gulped half a glass and waited for my stomach to start growling. But it never did. From that point on, I had free water everywhere I traveled.

The latest medical findings say that daily vitamin use may not preserve our health as we had thought. It's another medical theory proven to be wrong. In retrospect, getting sick is a good reminder of our mortality. I may not enjoy it but I can accept it and it springs up hope for a better after-life.

"I know that my redeemer lives, and that in the end he will stand on the earth. And after my skin has been destroyed, yet in my flesh I will see God." --- Job 19 25

Husband takes the wife to a disco there's a guy on the dance floor living it large --- break dancing, moon walking, back flips, the works. The wife turns to her husband and says: "See that guy? 25 years ago he proposed to me and I turned him down."

Husband says: "Looks like he's still celebrating!"

The Plumber Prank video is funny. That was a heck of a lot of work for a beer party.
I hope you feel better soon.
Thanks,

Wow in spite of illness you do a great job! Get well and healthy soon as possible! I did a similar thing in Italy and drank the best tap water everywhere I went! The bottled water was carbonated and made me burp! I think the bottlers of water put up all those non-potable signs!

Get better! Tom of Pasadena
