Got COPD? Get a Lung Flute
http://www.popsci.com/bown/2009/vide...ing-lung-flute

I'll be asking my pulmonary doc about this come Monday. I've been experiencing more congestion lately and a wicked low grade sinus headache, probably due to the heavy pollen we've been seeing lately. Beats the crap out of an oral Prednisone regimine, if it works.

I guess I can stop laying down in between my big JBLs and playing White Rabbit at volume 11 now...

Thanks, Robbin. Maybe it's time for a pneumo vaccine too, methinks. I'm at a low grade in the COPD world, bronchitis. Whoa! 16 hz, even my vandies won't go that low.

Sound advice, my friend. Too bad Jim Henson didn't head to an ER until it was too late. Pneumonia is #4 on the list of killers.

A thread titled, "What's the last song you'll hear?" or "What's your wake playlist?"

Too morbid?

I always thought if I was going to be executed by firing squad I would request Mountain Jam by the Allmann Brothers if they gave me a final request...then I would have enough time to plot a last minute escape lol....

"If I didn't care, what happens to you.
And you didn't care for me too.
We would zig-zag our way,
through the boredom and pain,
occasionally glancing up through the rain.
Wondering which of the brothers to blame,
and watching, for pigs on the wing."

after I came back from Iraq I discovered that album, although I had actually bought in back in 1977 but I just could not connect to it then.....

call me insane but I think that album was meant for the 2000s.....when he sings "which of the brothers to blame" I think of George Bush and Jeb for some reason
