Mark D Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 When I went to get a haircut, I saw the stylist's name on her license on the counter. I knew a girl by that name in High School, so I asked her if she went to Port Richmond High School on Staten Island, class of 1981, and she said she did. I said "You were in my class!" to which that grey haired lady with bifocals asked me "What did you teach?" 9 Quote My character: https://www.nerdfitness.com/character/58572/ Current Challenge:http://rebellion.nerdfitness.com/index.php?/topic/83683-mark-d-walks-up-to-a-barbell/ Previous Challenges: 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Link to comment

Chris-Tien Jinn Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 Did you have an ablation? If so what was the recovery time like? Yes, and it helped immensely. Recovery time was minimal. I took it easy for a few days and then was back to normal. I think it took a while for the anemia to clear up, but I was in really bad shape on that score. 1 Quote Level 63 Human ...

Chris-Tien Jinn Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 Great articles!!!! I was having trouble finding a job at 55 ... too many people seemed to think I was too old. I really hear this guy on letting people work if they want to for as long as they want to. Boredom is a killer. 1 Quote Level 63 Human ...
