  1. I'm tempted to contrast that reaction to this site's feelings towards the Titan's throwback Oilers unis, which are the best unis in the history of, well, unis, but I don't want to get negged into oblivion. Carry on.

    Oh, all good. I didn't actually have shingles in the eye, just some sort of aggrivation of the middle layer of the eye that they think was likely brought on by the virus. Don't you put that eye shingles evil on me Ricky Bobby!

    Jerry has lots of good advice. Stretch way more than you think you need to. Low intensity, long duration, static calf stretches, both with your knee straight and with your knee bent. The night splint might be worth every penny (also works wonders for plantar fassciitis as well). But proper stretching is the biggest key. You do NOT want that bad boy snapping on you!
  4. Nah, the DDS is easier than that. Anything you can make a rap about... Caution: its annoying AF and a potent ear worm:
  5. That's awful. The only thing worse would to list in in binary.

    The shingles vaccine talk reminded to share this little nugget. Came down with zombie eye (just one) a few weeks ago. Got in to se an opthamologist and was diagnosed with uveitis (inflammation of the middle layer of the eye). Doc asked if I had ever had chicken pox, cold sores or shingles. D - All of the above. So, they suspect that this is yet another iteration of the herpes zoster poking up its ugly head. Antibiotic and anti-inflammatory drops and Valtrex started. Went away in a little less than a week. Doc suggested I keep taking a lower dose of Valtrex for 3 months to try to knock the herpes as far back in the nooks and crannies as possible, but eventually, we will get to do something along these lines again. Oh, and I have had the modern shingles vaccine, so yay?
  7. Just want to get on record as NOT being one of these new SEC trolls. Been around a long time. Not HornFans long, but Shaggy at least (was there an iteration between HF and Shaggy?). No UT connection, but a TX native, and you assholes' sense of humor works for me. I feel like a somewhat welcome foreigner around here. Kind of like this:
  8. She needs to know proper car window ventilation protocols pre-flatulence too. My wife and daughter (no pics) can run me off the road!
  9. Worth it for thick cut Applewood smoked bacon.
  10. That story is a crazy read, and good on them for fighting back, but who takes the time to snap that pic?
  11. “Taken for questioning…” Sure, all he’ll get is a stern talking to…
  12. Didn’t see Bayou’s post with no video. I was starting to think this place was really slipping!
  13. Crap, I thought it was bad in TN and we couldn’t even put a county in the top 10. I feel for you fellas.
