1:28 am
grannyrose
if you can humidify the air around you, you may have some relief.
1:28 am
VolleymomDee
we did, but I couldn't find it after the move; hubby just got one yesterday, and I am finding that helpful... when I lie down I couldn't breathe at all...
1:29 am
grannyrose
how about a container of water in front of a fan?
1:30 am
VolleymomDee
even used VIX on my chest last night... that was a hoot.... another great idea, rose
1:31 am
VolleymomDee
are you doing rehab for your knee now, rose?
1:31 am
grannyrose
in spite of the heat, for really quick relief, try a steam inhalation, with Vix in the hot water.
1:32 am

dee, have gone back to the physio i had for my ankle, he also has hydro therapy pool, something my surgeon was quite definite on.
1:32 am
VolleymomDee
actually I got in the hot tub tonight... didn't stay in long, but it helped my head
1:33 am
VolleymomDee
that IS supposed to be a great orthopaedic therapy
1:34 am
grannyrose
have to wait for my wound to be completely healed. still has sub-cut suture hanging out of the bottom of the suture line.
1:34 am
VolleymomDee
so glad you were able to come home, rose
1:34 am
VolleymomDee
how long til sutures out?
1:35 am
grannyrose

1:35 am
grannyrose
suture should finally finish dissolving by next weekend. will take dressing down and check then
1:36 am
VolleymomDee
absence makes the heart grow fonder :). So very glad all is progressing well. Are you in much pain?
1:37 am

1:44 am
VolleymomDee
One line = QL says to Dolly - "You're so old, you read the Bible to reminisce." Their tiff in the diner is a hoot and a half.
1:45 am

would Don appreciate it, do you think?
1:45 am
VolleymomDee
I think so. Kris Kristofferson does a guest appearance.
1:46 am
VolleymomDee
Couple inappropriate parts, but they aren't totally out of context; music is great; humor is cute.
1:49 am

rush is a raving lunatic. rush takes oxycodone. therefore oxycodone makes rush a raving lunatic. Um, nope.

in fairness, i've never managed to listen to more than 30 seconds at a go of rush, so maybe he's entertaining in larger quantity? I somehow doubt it though...

clue for the ef6/39?
10:32 pm
jesdraggon
I'm unfamiliar with the dittohead thing, bab
10:33 pm
nrkii
Having listened to Rush in my time (though not much of a fan at all), ditto is just the term people use to shortcut the radio-call-in blather about how "I'm your biggest fan. You're so wonderful. Been listening to you for 10 years. Thanks for telling the truth. Blah blah blah blah blah." At some point in the past, Rush Limbaugh told callers to just say "ditto" instead of going on and on. So ditto-heads are just people who are fans of Rush. Not people who are choosing to identify themselves as clones of each other.
10:33 pm
nrkii
Never called. Never would, except to yell at him for being wrong about something.
10:34 pm
nrkii
But who has the energy?

10:35 pm
jesdraggon
I can't imagine he'd reply gracefully if you did call in to tell him he was wrong.
10:36 pm
nrkii
Jes, actually, Rush would. Hannity wouldn't. Hannity is awful, awful, awful. I listened to him for all of 5 minutes tonight, and was reminded of how awful I think he is.
10:36 pm
o-o
Urban dictionary: While the term may have originated by Limbaugh encouraging people who enjoyed the show to just say "ditto", the word has now evolved to mean a blind follower of Rush's twisted logic.
10:37 pm
o-o
Of course that is one view.
10:37 pm
nrkii
I don't find all his logic twisted, but I don't have a lot of respect for blind followers of ANYONE.
10:38 pm
o-o
I do not find his logic twisted either ... mainly because I never have found him logical
10:38 pm
nrkii
I try to listen more critically to people who I supposedly agree with, and to find points in common with people I don't agree with. I think it's dangerous to dismiss the opposition, and that the world is too complex for anyone to have even 10% of the right answers.

In my view, our purported leaders have failed us; labels really do not matter .... the hoi polloi are the last one our representatives want to look after.

Getting the Babble vote means you would get about 1% of 1% of the regular vote, as the people on Babble, in the immortal words of e. e. cummings, have less in common with mostpeople than with the squarerootofminusone
