Availability of good beer has come a long way. In my 20's I used to bury a case of Blatz beer in a snowbank out the back door then transition into drinking Budweiser when the Blatz ran out lol.
Blatz case was an oily looking brown cardboard case always and only a few bucks in the early 80's.
Don't drink really anymore. Once in a while a beer. Fights remission ok lets see whats in the fridge might have to open a cold one lol.
Newcastle. Guiness. Porter and stout beers. Victoria, Pacifico to feel like I am back in Mexico City lol. Some rediscovered midwest beers Grain Belt etc. Lost my taste for fat tire. I guess I am a ale/lager guy but not pale ale.
Was a beer drinker for many years. Went through a lot of phases from cheap Rainier beer, to stouts to IPAs, to premium microbrews. I traveled for work so I've had a lot of regional beers as well as mexican and asian beers. On the wagon now, but might have to do some more research...
I LOVE a lot of different beers. Unfortunately, I suffered with gout in the 4 years preceding my diagnosis, and beer was the number 1 thing that would set off an attack. Now I'm reduced to a couple of 6 packs over the course of a summer.
Your travel sounds interesting. Love to hear about it some time. I'm writing down some of (what I consider to be) my most interesting travel exploits to share with my kids and grandkids. It's been fun traveling back in time and reliving my travel. The fun, exciting, challenging, and dangerous times, from the safety of my home office.
Im with you on that. Maps and street views I am able to trace my past travels maybe its just me but pretty cool. "I was there" lol. I really should get a VR like brother Kal has.
Yea I'm lucky to have survived a lot of what I did back in the times. An addiction counselor told me "Its ok to celebrate the good experiences you had doing things that weren't good for you that enabled you to have those experiences" Ha.
laughter is the best medicine... oh sure, like it can cure cancer. ha! but thnx for making my day... erm, my night... ok, it's just past midnight here, so it's morning, i guess. seriously, Not sure if it's worth looking up what the abbrev. really indicate. As for ROD... i'm stocking up on black slacks in case of leakage. ah well, on with the battle.
Ah, So you are going beyond standard of care and supplementing with socks. My Uro says the studies on adding socks are inconclusive at this time. He doubts the value of RODS (Reliant on Depends and Socks) and is encouraging me to not experiment as long as the ROD treatment is till working.
How did you get into the MMG program. I understood that it was a trial and that they weren't accepting guys with man boobs since we are already halfway there.
Thx for this post! I was a caregiver for my husband for 6 1/2 yrs until he died. These acronyms help me see some humor in what my husband was going through. I thank you for sharing them!
Thank you so much for your post. I was trying to lighten the tone of our forum, but I was concerned about how my dark humor would land with all of the family members who also share this site. I’m so relieved and gratified that my foolishness helped you.
I’m sorry for what must have been a grueling time for you and for the loss of your husband. My wife’s love and support keep me afloat in difficult times, and I’m confident that your husband felt blessed to have you by his side.
WSS! (wiggly snake syndrome), Incontinence. Occurred after HDR Brachy and only lasted about 8 hours. Had to steam clean the WHOLE bathroom!! NOT meant to be humorous 😢
Now, you guys are talking a foriegn language. I feel like you may be sending me on a snipe hunt. Never heard of Genny Cream Ale, Boddington, or Yeungling.
