I wonder if Frau Fruit needs all those fans when she is already the coolest person on this forum.

It is a bit too hot for me these past few days. I now avoid going out between 11 and 3. I lie on my bed with a cooling fan near my head and simply read or listen to the BBC World Service. I would normally go to the gym at about 1 as it breaks the day nicely up. Now I go early in the morning. Even th...

Lorreta Swift was best known as "Hot Lips" Houlihan from the TV show M.A.S.H. What a great name. Yet another very funny half hour comedy show from America: Where are they these days?

How I wish I could see the reruns of Cheers.In English. Not in German. Comedy just does not translate.

I am a great fan of those half hour American sit coms. Cheers was one of the first and one of the best. When I am in a bar, I somtimes use a line that he used when taking a beer . I look at the beer longingly and say "Komm zu Pappi , komm zu Pappi". This gets a smile from the barperson. I ...

I got a message on my laptop the other day. It said there was not enough space left to allow important updates from Microsoft. Yet in checking the space left, I found I had at least 15.5 GBs. This seems more the enough. So whats going on?

I got this strange message on my phone while I was trying to charge it.
" Battery Temperure too low". Strange as it is nice and warm at the moment. What should I do?

Excellent news about himself. I am very happy today.

I am happy today because I got the all clear from my colonoscopy examination. I had seven polyps removed and sent for signs of cancer.Got a phone call yesterday to say that all is well and they will see my again in 3 years. How to celebrate? Maybe I will go out womanising tonight. If I can remember ...

I get lots of flyers in my mail box, despite having 2 stickers on the flap which clearly state no flyers and no free newpapers. Can´t people read or do they just ignore my instructions?

Sorry to here he is poorly. My dad had habit of "not bothering" the doctors, to the point of terrifying all of us. I hope he gets better very soon. Many men do not go the the doctor when they should. I was like that when I was younger. Now I do not hesistate. It helps to have free check u...

There was some pain a while ago and that is what took me to the doctor and then the scan. But since then , nothing. If the pain comes back again , I will have the gall bladder removed.

And now another health problem. Should I have my gall bladder removed? I had a recent ultra scan and was told my gall bladder was full of gall stones. Removing the organ was a recommendation. I will probably get it removed soon as I can function pretty well without it.

Sorry to hear that FrauFruit. I had a colonoscopy a few years ago, recommended cos dad died of bowel cancer, and the actual procedure was totally fine as they knocked me out briefly. But the drink prep was horrendous, 4 litres of that disgusting weird tasting solution throughout the night. I am not...

Sorry to here about that Frau Fruit. And you are right. Getting old is no fun, especially when you have been good at sport like I was.
I am reminded of that song by Bruce called Glory Days.

Had a colonoscopy yesterday. Not very nice. Seven polpys were found and removed so I am glad I did it. The worst part is not the examination itself, but rather the laxative that I had to take to clear the colon. I had to stay near the toilet to avoid any accidents. I was not happy. But I still maint...

What is going on here? The number of views is insanely high. It is nearly 50,000. How can such an ordinary post attract so much attention? Especially when there are many more interesting posts to be viewed.
Am I being digitally stalked?

I thought a bit of classical might be nice. This is Andre Rieu.

Sorry to hear about that, Eric7. Hope it turns out well in the end.
My new glasses are really good in this lovely spring sunshine. I must look really cool....

I also suffer from "Dry Eyes" and so when my current supply of eye drops run out , I will go back to Fielmanns to get some new ones. I trust them.
