    Let's all stay/get healthy so we can play with our cars longer....

    I just thought I'd mention that those of us at a certain age, need to schedule a colonoscopy (mine is this afternoon.) Yes, they are literately a pain in the behind, but not getting this done is what killed my Dad. His undetected cancer metastasized and was eventually found in his brain. I'm now 60 and have had one every 4 to 5 years since turning 40.

    So, just for fun, watch these funny videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2gABYTmXos, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEp9oi1LVXw

    NOT going to watch these videos, just in case

    I had my first just last year.. they put me out completely so there was no pain involved at all. Isn't that normal?

    They found 3 polyps on my first scope at 50, so I'm on the 3-year plan now. Get it done!

    Worst part of the entire process is the kool aid. Now if it could be "flavored" with an adult beverage...........
