Anyway, congrats on getting the medical. But you may be surprised at how well
the meditation could work at getting off the meds.

Indeed. I discovered Benson's book, "The Relaxation Response," about
20 years ago and it works.

This age thing is a bitch, ain't it?

He gets an inordinate amount of attention right here. That's why he
will
be with us indefinitely.

Right. That is why every post by him should be answered in a very simple
way, (like below) by everyone.

Could we all please try to do this right, starting now?

Thanks Jim. I'm trying to cut down on the cokes and substitute juice.
Certainly can't hurt.

It would appear as though weight is not much of a problem for you, after
re-reading your post that had your weight and height in it. (I missed it the
first time.) (:-0)

Cokes are a big weakness for me too, and I refuse to consider diet Coke,
with all of the drawbacks and side-effects of aspartame, plus the nasty
after-taste. I managed to lose the weight and keep it off and the BP down
(for about 3 months now) even with my _many_ coke-a-day habit.

Be fair, if you were drunk and armed with a taser he'd be the life of the

Oh good god, he's dioing medicine now.

There's no limits to his knowledge and
opinions as long as he doesn't have to
strap into the front seats of a real
aircraft.



We should ask him what the cure is for cancer while hes here.

But I'm not, and I don't have a taser, and he's a punk.

I still say Shun. If you want to play, I can't stop you, but I'll bet you
are in the minority, at this point.

Care to expand on that, Jon? How's it work?

I do think arm's length posts to Mx's messages -- those that correct
errors -- are worthwhile but not engaging him in a message exchange is
important. It may not stop him, but newcomers should be warned of
misinformation. Viperdoc tends to do that and Bertie in his subtle way
does call attention to Mx's lack of credentials from time to time.

Bertie, it might be a good idea to not hold back as much as you do,
that restraint could have an affect on your health.

There is no charge for this professional advice, Bertie.

I'll stick with my old friend running and change the diet for a while first.

I find it interesting that throughout this entire message thread there
has been no mention of reducing sodium intake for lowering blood
pressure. I thought curtailing salt use was the number one remedy.
