I’ve been kinda busy the last few months, made some progress here and there. I moved into a new house in another town, right around the corner from where I work. That saves me a lot of time and gas. It’s also a healthier environment. The old house had it’s issues, apparently mold being among them. It wasn’t the cause of my issues but clearly didn’t help matters.

Speaking of issues, my last test three months ago showed my mercury level has dropped by 75%. It’s now just a bit above the upper end of the normal category, although it could be lower by now since that test was three months ago. Still working on that. We still haven’t pinpointed the cause of the ulcerative colitis symptoms, also a work in progress. My diet is still extremely limited due to that, but it’s survivable as long as I’m careful with it.

After that period last summer/fall when my health went drastically downhill and I lost a ton of weight, my body seems to have gone through another change that I’m still trying to figure out. I lost a lot of strength and I’m not sure if it’s due to the stress I went through with that or if it’s just an aging thing. I know it’s partly due to what I went through back then and also because I couldn’t exercise like I used to during that time, but I suspect there’s more to it than that.

I recently read an article about how the body experiences two major turning points when it comes to aging, the second one being around age 60 (I’ll be 58 next month). Maybe it’s just that. If so, getting older sucks. I’m also experiencing some pain in the front of both shoulders now, but I didn’t injure them. Just seems to have developed on its own. It’s not debilitating but it makes getting back into working out a lot more difficult. That’s what makes me think it’s just an aging thing. Not sure what to make of it.

I had carpal tunnel surgery on both wrists in the last two months. Glad that’s finally done.

Enough rambling about that. I have a new dog now. She actually belongs to someone I know but her owner is letting her stay with me, with the understanding that she would go back to her owner if I can’t take care of her. But it’s been going great. Her name is Sprite. She’s a seven year old English shepherd with the energy of a pup, and she took to me like a fly on shit. We get along awesomely. She was a stunt dog in a former life. She used to do obstacle course competitions and stuff like that. She’s very well trained and highly intelligent.

I’ve taken her to the beach a few times, turns out she’s a water dog. She loves to run in the water and dunk her face under. So with that, here are some dog pics.

Pretty sure it was already addressed and he was banned.

Though I don't know the reasons why, he seemed mild to me.

When I was a kid we had an English Shepard, although we thought he was a Border Collie. He was an amazing dog, very protective of my sister and I.

(and thanks for the reply)
Huh... TescoVee always seemed pretty solid

Not trying to start an argument... but some of the banned come as a surprise to me (who isn't a mod anywhere so can't see members' warning lists)

Hi guys. Sorry if I worried anyone. I was just taking some time to work on things and make some changes.

I’ve been kinda busy the last few months, made some progress here and there. I moved into a new house in another town, right around the corner from where I work. That saves me a lot of time and gas. It’s also a healthier environment. The old house had it’s issues, apparently mold being among them. It wasn’t the cause of my issues but clearly didn’t help matters.

Speaking of issues, my last test three months ago showed my mercury level has dropped by 75%. It’s now just a bit above the upper end of the normal category, although it could be lower by now since that test was three months ago. Still working on that. We still haven’t pinpointed the cause of the ulcerative colitis symptoms, also a work in progress. My diet is still extremely limited due to that, but it’s survivable as long as I’m careful with it.

After that period last summer/fall when my health went drastically downhill and I lost a ton of weight, my body seems to have gone through another change that I’m still trying to figure out. I lost a lot of strength and I’m not sure if it’s due to the stress I went through with that or if it’s just an aging thing. I know it’s partly due to what I went through back then and also because I couldn’t exercise like I used to during that time, but I suspect there’s more to it than that.

I recently read an article about how the body experiences two major turning points when it comes to aging, the second one being around age 60 (I’ll be 58 next month). Maybe it’s just that. If so, getting older sucks. I’m also experiencing some pain in the front of both shoulders now, but I didn’t injure them. Just seems to have developed on its own. It’s not debilitating but it makes getting back into working out a lot more difficult. That’s what makes me think it’s just an aging thing. Not sure what to make of it.

I had carpal tunnel surgery on both wrists in the last two months. Glad that’s finally done.

Enough rambling about that. I have a new dog now. She actually belongs to someone I know but her owner is letting her stay with me, with the understanding that she would go back to her owner if I can’t take care of her. But it’s been going great. Her name is Sprite. She’s a seven year old English shepherd with the energy of a pup, and she took to me like a fly on shit. We get along awesomely. She was a stunt dog in a former life. She used to do obstacle course competitions and stuff like that. She’s very well trained and highly intelligent.

I’ve taken her to the beach a few times, turns out she’s a water dog. She loves to run in the water and dunk her face under. So with that, here are some dog pics.

He’s banned from GD.

He was a smartass troll of the highest order and trolled me and my threads quite often, then I started appreciating and looking forward to his sarcastic responses.  He sometimes would close out a post with “Or whatever.” and I’ll occasionally do the same in a thread when the situation arises.

It’s been almost a year now and since he’s only been banned from GD and not the site, I think it’s about time for him to be allowed back in.  I’ve seen a hell of a lot worse than anything he ever posted and those posters are still posting & trolling away in GD every single day.  Oh, well…

Or whatever.

Some of my favorites was him posting random pics of fatties at walmart, drunkenly trying to balance an AR on a fifth of whiskey, and his rants about "no pays" (non paying members)

I'm very curious why he got banned but I know we can't get the answer. He seemed ridiculous, but harmless ridiculous.
