Wally,I go for a chest and body scan tomorrow afternoon.
My dad died of lung cancer. My sister currently has lung cancer.
Although I dont smoke anymore I did for decades.
My Docs want a looksee and baseline.
You could say I have some anxiety over this.

First time I've ever seen it, was painful to watch. I hate the hollywood-over-the-top-boston-accent move; real sick of it.The concept is creative but the execution by Dratch ruins it. Far too over the top. I'm fine with Krasinski, Evan and Papi
Wally....not saying this because it's what I do and am not trying to solicit, but have you ever had your home tested for radon ? It is the 2d leading cause of lung cancer in the US, leading among non smokers.
Please consider testing if you haven't to help further reduce your risk
So I had my first MRI last night. I almost pushed the panic button as I am a bit claustrophobic.
I tried to listen to the music and meditate but I had to keep my eyes closed and even with ear plugs and headphones on the noise is very loud.
I talked myself out of my panic attack but was very happy when the attendant said "only 4 more min"
I counted the 240 seconds.
They pulled a cage (kind of like what a hockey player with a broken jaw would wear) down over my face before they put me in the tube and it freaked me out. I kept my eyes closed the whole time.MRI is horrible and I also had it for a shoulder....in fact they screwed it up so I had to go back for a repeat.
I hate the sides of the tube touching me. making you feel even more squeezed.
The did what they call an open MRI, which looks basically like a bagel, but they still bring it down within a few inches of your face....my advice.....once you lay down never open your eyes until its completely over.
Mine ended up being the bicep tendon where they cut out a section and reattach it with a screw.....took 18 months to be able to raise my arm over my head again

It is silly because they don't hurt you but I started to have a panic attack (which is not normal for me) right away. I was real close to pushing that button and getting out. I listened to music but it didn't help much. The noise is so loud.
I hope I won't have t o do it again but if I do I am getting drugs first
They told me not even to lick my lips if they were dry unless it was a break in the banging noise.I always find when you are stuck in there, your nose starts to itch, a hair tickles your ear, you get a cramp or you suddenly realize you need to go to the bathroom even though you just did 10 minutes ago
I walked into my freshman high school Spanish class and someone had written on the blackboard....yes, it was actually black with chalk and everything ..... that the shuttle had exploded. We thought someone was trying to be an idiot making something up like that, then the teacher walked in and told us it was true.I was in 2nd period German. Stunned silence for most of the rest of the period.
When I visited my son in NYC in Oct, we went to the USS Intrepid Museum, and they actually have the Enterprise there. It was just used for glide and aerodynamic testing, but gives you a real sense of the scale of the orbiters.I walked into my freshman high school Spanish class and someone had written on the blackboard....yes, it was actually black with chalk and everything ..... that the shuttle had exploded.

I always loved the shuttles though. Someday I'd like to go see one of them in the museums.
I hope you don't have to have another one, but if you do, you could just pretend you are Chara and could rip the machine apart with your bare hands if you wanted to.They pulled a cage (kind of like what a hockey player with a broken jaw would wear) down over my face before they put me in the tube and it freaked me out.

It seems silly since they were essentially all the same, but Discovery was my favorite.When I visited my son in NYC in Oct, we went to the USS Intrepid Museum, and they actually have the Enterprise there.

RIP Jack Burns of the great comic team Burns and Schreiber (yeah only us old timers remember these guys)
This routine was one of my all time favorites. The timing and chemistry they had was great.
“Must have been a lot of jokes about him”
“I don’t recall any”
And of course, the famous “Huh” “ Yeah” back and forth.
He also started out with George Carlin (maybe some of you young ‘uns know of him) and an original writer for Sesame Street

I love Oscar the grouch. I sometimes quote him 'Ding dong you are wrong"I actually watched the Muppet Movie again a few weeks ago. First time in literally a couple decades. Loved it as a kid... Now, not so much. They sure did have a lot of big names in that movie, for its time.
That's also the first ever movie that I remembered a joke from... When Kermit almost got run over by a steamroller while riding his bike and said he was almost "gone with the Schwinn."
I had an Oscar puppet when I was a kid. My brother said it was appropriate.I love Oscar the grouch. I sometimes quote him 'Ding dong you are wrong"
It’s a win!it's impossible to dislike anything that ends with Dirty Water.
Why exactly do we care what the weather will be like in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania
