Warden "Mona D. Houston" - Definitely a porn name. ?

BUSTED!!! (I don't see no Alembic in there!) ?

It was an observation about the current state of life in the World which is DEFINITELY not in "High Performance" mode this year.

I don't see any batteries, is that thing solar powered? ?

Wow are you programmed Nigel! I truly feel sorry for you, I'm sure your life could be FAR better than it currently is. I can only shake my head every time I see people who say crap they've been told to say that's 180 degrees backwards of reality. Unfortunately, this is now the vast majority of people. That said, I DID say to talk with his usual PCP. Here, I PhotoShopped these just for you! ?

I don't really have any way to use or store physical media any more, so let me know when I can buy the digital download! ?

So, per Jim above, the entire World must be currently in "Long Battery Life" mode... ?

Fyxed!

Although a neurological factor may be the cause, make sure to check out the more direct paths. It could turn out to be a slight impingement in your shoulder that's just slightly aggravating the nerve. This is easily treated with some physical therapy to help keep the bones from falling in on each other. This, in different locations throughout your body as well, is what causes Sciatica. If this escalates to a shooting pain that goes down the arm, or you start to experience tingling or numbness, then that might suggest a more physical solution. Needless to say, among my many apparent fringe beliefs, is one that wants to avoid prescription solutions at all costs. Unfortunately, I see a lot of the medical industry being persuaded by the pharmaceutical companies to prescribe, prescribe, prescribe instead of promoting safer alternative solutions (and I've yet to see a situation that didn't have one). Unfortunately, these safer solutions don't make anyone rich, so they're typically minimized and ignored (or even outright banned by the FDA). Also note that the FDA does not approve anything that cures or prevents! Only "treatments" which means addressing the symptoms to make the condition bearable. This isn't what you want. Most people don't realize that the vast majority of medical doctors simply diagnose, prescribe and, occasionally, cut (talking mainly MD's here, not DO's). The bulk of their drug knowledge comes from the pharmaceutical sales rep! Be sure to always ask questions of the people who ARE trained to understand medications and the interactions: Pharmacists. If it was me, I'd try to figure out why I had the condition in the first place and attempt to address that. If it turns out to be non-physical, but not serious either, it might be easily remedied using hypnosis, NLP or acupuncture (including acupressure and electro-acupuncture). Try to get your doctor's consent first though. Ask lots of questions and don't necessarily take the first answer as gospel! Hey, it's YOUR body, ya? ?

Does it handle subtraction, multiplication and division too? Or is it just a one-trick pony? ?

Ok, fine. If I have to wait, I guess I will! ? (?)

At least he made it to 80... Somehow it seems appropriate that the guy who wrote "I can see clearly now" passes away in the year 2020... *Sigh...*

So that really IS Bapu's closet??? ?

No, no, no... The booze and the ability to turn out the lights is for HER benefit! ?

I can hear Bill falling on the ground from here! ?

Now Sheens, that's not very nice! Besides, everyone knows that's what the light switch after extensive alcohol is for. ?

What was really cool was that we rarely talked about anything to do with music! (And NOTHING about guitar playing!) It was weird because the band I was in had recently opened for Blue Oyster Cult and our lead guitarist was a huge Eddie fan (who later went to play in his Godfather's band, Dio). Eddie never knew I could even spell "guitar" let alone attempt to play one... Whenever Valerie was back in New York, he'd pull up in his white Lambo (which was even nicer than my poser sports car - lol), then his two bodyguards would pull up in a sedan behind him. Since I was going out with one of the waitresses and not pestering him for an autograph or anything like that, I was "safe" and we'd sit up at the bar and his bodyguards would stand behind us. I have a lot of family in Michigan on my Mom's side with the last name of Van Heulen (she's 100% Dutch - my maternal grandparents immigrated from the Netherlands). So we ended up talking a lot about that and golfing. The only music-related stuff I remember talking with him about was about him playing piano! We hung out four or five times but, during the last one, David Lee Roth showed up basically acting like a big tool, then made is way into the DJ booth where he proceeded to yell out over the dance floor "Hey Ladies! Start deciding which of you will be going home with me tonight!!!" As soon as he showed up Eddie looked very disappointed (perhaps a big clue that things were not going smooth between them - something confirmed when they replaced him with Sammy!). After Dave made his "announcement," Eddie said he didn't want to "stick around for the childishness" (or something similar). I never saw him there after that...

When is it supposed to be up on Amazon? It's not coming up yet...

First things first...

Oh man... I'm crushed! I used to hang out with him at a certain, notorious club in West Hollywood...

As you wish! ?

Oh, in case you were referring to her dress... HTH! ?

Just for Bill! I got rid of that red thing. ?
