  1. Before I finally had surgery, I had reached the point where pills did not work any more. The legs would do their own kind of writhing and squirming and I had lost some bladder control. The sciatica was only a symptom of a bigger problem. I had caused some actual damage to the spinal nerve tissues ( for which there is some residual effect). It took a year, post-op, to regain most of the feeling back in my feet. No amount of chiro, massage or ointments will help when there are more serious problems. You need the doctor to rule out the more serious possibilities.
  2. Sound like a great time. Sorry I missed it. Doing the family wedding thingy today. I plan to get there Monday.
  3. Hamilton Hall's book, "The Back Doctor" is a good reference to learn from. It teaches the basics of managing your back care. I relied on the text for 15 years. If the muscles are in spasm, get him to an emerg. Get the muscle spasms under control then look at the treatment options. The sciatic nerve is but one of the nerves than can be affected in your lower back. The problem can extend to bladder and kidneys. The severe sciatica can merely be a sign and symptom of far deeper problems. If the legs are moving involuntarily. If there is a bladder or bowel control issue. If he can find no relief in any position. He will need some type of immediate treatment.
  4. done and did it
  5. Even the Dime Store Fishermen aren't that bad.
  6. I don't think you will see a ban on 2 stroke motors. There are, however, numerous bodies of water that have either total engine bans, and some with limits on the size of motor that one may use.
  7. Too much fishing to do right now to be thinking that far ahead
  8. The Mrs. Doesn't complain about my fishing "habit". In fact, she goes out and buys me a lot of the gear. I just have to shut my yap about the Bingo parlours.

  10. Blimey thay's a nice pike Limey. Don't take Snag too seriously. He's one of those "Taranna" types. It's all that foul air they breath in.
  11. I have a hard enough time parting with a $1.25 at Timmies, when I brew a pot for $0.25. At $4 there better be a solid shot in there.
  12. That looks down right delish. The body has been deep fried and cooked through for an adequate amount of time. Talk about fresh from sea to table.

  14. I could get into one of them omelets about now. Yummy.
  15. Those are some fine looking whities. I'm drooling just thinking of what I would do to them in the kitchen
  16. It was a great show. Don't know how many times I've seen every episode. The final episode was great. So were the M.A.S.H farewell parties held at various bars and college pubs. My daughter now watches the show every day some 25 years later.
  17. Actually, we send you off to the penal colony in North Labrador
  18. The big federal construction projects initiated by FDR and the Democrats through the 30's. There were no bailouts that I can recall.
  19. Never. Never. Never. Trust a Canadian politician's word.
  20. One of the old methods for killing fresh caught eel was to toss them in a sack of rocksalt. I remember watching the old timers do it when I was a kid.
  21. Think of it as the 20lb easy diet
