    I don't know about all y'all, but I think the world would be a better (or at least, more interesting) place if more institutions of higher learning had their own DC-3s.

    Reminds me of the "FAQ" sign at the local glassblowers' shop (Simon Pearce glassworks -- really, really beautiful, albeit pricey, stuff).
    Q: Do any of your glassblowers ever get burned?
    A: Only once.

    Omaha is an emotionally taxing place.

    Fortunately it is a small horse.
    Imagine an emotional support Clydesdale.

    That’s the only way one can live. I had a stroke last August, and while minor on the stroke scale, it still f u c kk e d me up. Oh well, that’s life. :)

    Thanks Bud. I take it one day at a time.

    They get you on Allipurinol? I take 300mg a day and have very very little issues. I can still drink a class of Vodka after eating a ribeye and shrimp and still be ok. Maybe once a month I feel it flare up just a little. Nothing like a full blown flare up.

    I also found that soaking my foot in water with apple cider vinegar 50/50 mix really helped.

    I also drink apple cider vinegar every day. Just a swig or two off the bottle. This is the best one I have found.

    Bragg apple cider vinegar is harsh tasting to me. I take 1-2 tablespoons of Trader Joe's ACV most days. It also has "mother."

    This really sucks!

    I feel your pain as I was diagnosed with gout two weeks ago. It has been a living hell. I passed a kidney stone about 12 years ago, the worst 4 hours of my life. This new challenge is a close second. Flare ups are debilitating.

    Mine is on my right foot, try driving with that. I've dreaded having to apply the brakes because of the pain.

    I really, truly thought, at a quick glance, that this photo showed an appendage immersed in a bucket filled with maggots of unusual size.

    brrrrrrrrrrrrrrghhh!
