    If it weren't for modern medicine,

    I don't know if anything would have finished me off in my early childhood because I don't really remember, largely because at the time I had no understanding of what medical stuff was. As far as I can remember I've had no need for anything meaningful, medically speaking. Even the supposedly...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    A long thing that slides out of the back of the truck and gives you a long gentle ramp so you don't have to push the trike up a steep hill. Or a hydraulic lift. A guy who lives near me is a disabled veteran and had something welded to the back of his truck so he can get his mobility scooter onto...

    Obese children

    I remember some years ago on another forum I made a comment about seeing people so fat they couldn't walk using mobility scooters while eating super-jumbo portions of cookies and ice cream. Someone there made a big issue of the fact that mobility issues can cause weight gain and it's not...

    So get a long extendable ramp? You can push the trike onto the back of the pickup over a nice long distance :)

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    You need a giant ramp so you can push it onto roof bars :) Seriously, one of the guys at church who has a trike has roof bars. He's an older guy and his trike is heavy so I'm not sure how he manages to get it up there. I think he usually rides with someone else so maybe he never has to do it...

    Obese children

    I struggle to see why BMI has any credibility at all. When I at my heaviest my BMI was something like 34.6 which put me well into the "obese" band and I'd only need to gain a few extra pounds to count as "morbidly obese". I don't dispute I was fat but the label "morbidly obese" just costs...

    Will Putin go Nuclear?

    We might not have specific interest in Ukraine but what's to say Putin will stop if Ukraine does fall? What if he goes further and attacks a NATO country - then there are treaty obligations to get involved. Sometimes it's better to poke the bear to get it to back off than get drawn into an...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    You can get recumbant trikes as well, which look pretty cool. A couple of guys at my church have them. One guy has balance issues on two wheels, I think the other guy just prefers to sit back and turn the pedals rather than sitting upright on a regular bike.

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    It's a very slow process, held up many times by problems with availability of what I need, figuring out what to do next, and deciding what we want to do with the space. Then we had a total side-track that delayed everything by several months. Many of the cold spots are addressed. There are...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Nice walk this morning and then got busy rearranging stuff. Some more stuff is now in the attic out of the way, a couple of cedar chests are moved to free up space, and a few other odds and ends are sorted through ready to be dumped. Along the way I found something I hadn't expected. The other...

    Abolishing Prisons?

    I guess you have to let all the rapists and murderers free if you want the prisons to have space for the really dangerous people, like the ones who didn't get their vaccines.

    Do you consider the pandemic over?

    For a time I was inclined to agree with that assessment but in recent months it appears the moderate left is taking a more pragmatic approach, with only the most extreme left retaining a disproportionate fear of the virus. It seems that as this "pandemic fatigue" sets in deeper more and more...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Figuring out the next chain of jobs to continue my home improvement. I've got a few things to move to the attic so I can use the space for some other stuff that doesn't really want to be in the attic, then I can reclaim the space that used to be a working desk for me, then rearrange the guest...

    Abolishing Prisons?

    But, but, but, prisons are discriminatory. They single out minorities in our society (like burglars, rapists and killers) and deny them their basic human freedoms. Prisons bad. Bad prisons. Never mind the way the communities the left claims to be so concerned about (poor, mostly black...

    Discipulus

    Perhaps he's one of these fine upstanding teachers who tells others to give up their possessions (and internet access, naturally) and then wiggles around questions like this by pointing out he lives in mummy's basement and uses her computer and her internet access.

    Do you consider the pandemic over?

    ... except that's what they told us about cloth masks until the pesky virus underwent a change so small you'd need an electron microscope to see it that somehow trained it to sneak past the weave of a mask. Sooner or later a pesky virus will figure out how to cut a hole in a plastic bag, but...

    What's the smallest size house you'd live in?

    Hard to say without knowing circumstance. When my wife and I were first married we lived in a studio apartment that was maybe 500 square feet. It worked for a couple of years but we had long outgrown it by then. If circumstances made it necessary we theoretically could do it again but it would...

    Afraid of women

    I'd second Jazzy's suggestion to seek professional help. If you are seriously so afraid that a girl who might have different moral standards to your own touched you that you screamed obscenities you've got issues that you're unlikely to resolve based on what people on a message board might say...

    In your opinion,

    ... except I wouldn't even say it's "always valid" given the way so many things called a mental illness are vaguely defined and may be more a matter of opinion than of fact. This is even more so when people self-diagnose.
