It's gotta be a genetic thing for me. Neither of my parents is in the greatest of health, particularly my dad. 69 y/o, Multiple time cancer survivor, diabetic, diagnosed with Parkinson's. Neither one have had it worse than a common cold.

My daughter had it twice? Diabetic and overweight. It was mild.

I had it for about 4 days in early November. First 2 days I was really sore and achy, figured it was my arthritis. 1 evening (3 hours?) I had chills and fever. 1 morning I had a headache and sore throat. I have co-morbidities, am immunocompromised and immunosuppressed.

My wife had it the same time I did early November), she blamed me, she also had a 2 day headache and for her it was a pretty bad cold, aches, etc lasted about 5 days.

But I have the "100 day cough" that some people seem to get after Covid. I can go hours without coughing, but I can also cough for hours on end. The cough started after the WuFlu ended and has been with me for 6 weeks (so far). The cough is just annoying, sort of like Jedi.

Some pics of them getting wreckage out of ditch last night. Amazing guy survived the crash let alone almost a week down there. Guess several broken bones and had to have left leg amputated mid shin.

Apparently I drove past a dead body on my way into work this morning. Rt6 near Ravina Pines trailer park

Think it was a possible hit and run overnight as body was frosty

Wouldn't doubt that as I see people all the time dressed in all black walking down the street early morning when its still dark. Usually on Wisconsin St though not Rt 6

I'm impressed joe's towing managed that without injuring or killing anyone. they have to be the sketchiest towing company I've ever seen operate.

It was warmer all Christmas weekend. Temps well above freezing. If it'd of been 6 days of the overnight temp we had last night/this morning he would've definitely succumbed to the weather

You should wait until they transport & unload it before you make such a proclamation

@bloodandgutsmurphy An Enfield Mk IV Webley sits above the S&W Lend/Lease
(Paid $180 years ago at Blythe's for the Webley because it had the typical shaved cylinder, I did a sales job on the cylinder wobble, and they obviously were looking to move it.)

You ever want to make $20, let me know.

40s and 50s is still a bit chilly to be stuck in a vehicle for a week.

Yes, better than the 30s.

It may have been the cool Temps in water that saved his life.

Temporary crown has evolved into an appointment for a root canal at the specialist tomorrow morning so I can get my permanent crown on. Beginning to think I just should have yanked the tooth.
I am over being in pain when I eat. Already down 5 lbs because not eating doesn't hurt.

??? Did the person have no family that no one was missing them or reported lost???

No one went looking for them?

Not close with his parents, friends were likely busy with Xmas stuff. I’m sure we all have friends we don’t communicate with for a week without concern

My understanding is wasn't close to family and traveled for work, so maybe not a stretch to not hear from him for a week or 2.

Heck I only talk to my sisters a couple times a year anymore since they moved to AZ and MO 13 years ago

 

[jedi]

N ya say jedi is crazy?
Ya r some real loner losers!

jedi gets over 50+ text on the family chat. Another 40+ on the close friends chat.
Both of them daily.

And that is not counting the individual text to others.

Several years ago I had an abscess and had a tooth pulled. 6 months later at my next visit the doctor talked about an implant. I said why? It is a side tooth, nobody see it is missing, I don't miss it, why spend the $$$$ for it? It has been gone ever since.

But then again, I live south of US30 so it is considered normal here.

Seems like I recall you not getting along the greatest with some of your family. Maybe that's why...to much interaction

My 3 sisters will be back here in Indiana for a wedding in June. Will be the 1st time in 13 years we'll all be together at the same time

I hated walking in parades when I was a kid, and they were no where that long.
