Happiness is a new gun 2

Totally agree on the wood's thing. Spent my life in them. Camping, hiking and just hanging around in them. Spent time golfing in them too. :p My property has 3 acres of them, and I spend a lot of time in there. Even better when there's a river or creek running through. I read a book about how trees communicate and help each other. Keep your deserts, plains, lake country, mountains, I'll take a river and woods anytime. Quit hunting in my 20's. Just can't shoot an animal of any kind anymore. I'm also always armed for those two-legged creatures that can wreak havoc. My Polish neighbor used to come over and pick the mushrooms growing on my property and cook them in butter. He showed me how to tell the difference between the edible and inedible one's. The wife says don't you dare.............................................. ...........

I'm with her on the mushrooms, I like em but they all look alike to me. Not gonna risk it.

One thing you never want to do is get food poisoning. My God, you will be begging for someone to put a bullet in your head. I had it, and gives me nightmares to this day. Lol, I was convinced I was going to die. I remember thinking, damn, all that Ammo I have been hoarding will go to waste, should have shot it.

I got a touch of it from an Encherito Special at Taco Bell 26 years ago.
Had continuous accidental discharges from both muzzle & breech overnight, probably my most miserable 10 hours ever..... and that includes a couple of heart attacks and a case of the shingles.

I’ve had it from undercooked chicken several times. It ain’t fun, but it wasn’t traumatic either.

I kind of deal with that on a daily basis, some sort of intestinal malady. Told the doc I need a full digestive transplant, he laughed, I was serious. Been dealing with it for years, poked and prodded and they keep saying IBS but found nothing wrong.
To be continued I guess. Main reason I stay home a LOT!.

Ever take probiotics Colonel? I've dealt with IBS and also C-diff. I had to stay home for a month with the c-diff and it didn't stop until I started a course of probiotics. Gut bacteria is important.

You name it I've tried it. Probiotics, super high fibre diet, gluten free (whatever the hell a gluten is), took some crummy powder that you mix with a drink, orange flavor but it's like it's got sand in it, horrible stuff, went through 2 prescriptions of that 288 doses and have another under the sink I won't bother with.
Gave up coffee for awhile, went non dairy which wasn't hard except I like ice cream.

Everything seems to help for a few day to a week, then don't work no more.

I've suggested some of the things you see advertised on TV but docs say I don't have whatever that is.

It's a great life if you don't weaken.

Growing old is tough work. This I know.

Beer, it’s the ultimate gastronomical delight, helps with digestion, sleep, a constant nagging wife, and overall general physical health and mental well being………Hey even if it doesn’t cure everything all at once it don’t matter because there’s always tomorrow to give it another shot…………
