    One's turning 13, the other is 6.


    In three years, bring the older one on a vacation to Las Vegas. His
    birthday present awaits him a short hour drive over the county line.

    Everyone has a claim on that boy. When he's 14 I'm supposed to send him
    into the Michigan woods with my natal menfolk to shoot something.

    Turning cutey-pie little boys into men is a tougher job that it seems for
    a mother.

    No, it's not. Here are your instructions:

    1) Shut up.

    2) Sit down.

    3) Stay out of the way.

  2. Thanks for the info Mack!
    You seem to be the only one not so fixated on gay issues - God knows
    where that came from in this subject.
    I don't have the much trouble with my back so I think the boots are
    fine for me as well. I do hang upsidedown without any negative side
    effects so far. I think this is all for me.

    Thanks,
    Sheldon

    Yes, you finally found someone to agree with what you were going to do in
    the first place.

    Yes, take his crappy advice. In fact, I agree with him now. Since you
    already have "a bulging disc", what harm could complete free hanging
    inversion cause?

    Yes, listen to Mack, Job Security. Those of us whose professions greatly
    rely on stupidity salute you.

    Well, #2 shouldn't be a problem for someone who squats, and #3 is a road
    racing skill.

    #1 may be problematic.

    Ha ha!

  13. I think David and David should make some fire together under a teepee. They
    sure like to agree with each other and attack my reasoned points with
    nothing more than ad hominem attacks. But the net is like that. Anonymity
    gives morons courage.

    You are SO right Mack.

    You giving someone bad abvice that could potentially cripple them for life
    shows so much more integrity and class.

    But the net is like that.

    I'm still trying to figure out the "anonymity" part. I use my real name,
    have on occasion mentioned where I work, have occasionally mentioned my
    personal website which has photos of me and mine, a number of regulars and
    former regulars know my address and phone number, and I have personally met
    a dozen or so of them.

    I guess Mack wants naked jpegs of my genitals, to finally achieve
    non-anonymity.

    Oh, [censored]. David Cohen and I agree on this subject, too. David G.
    and I have had strong disagreements about whether ankle inversion is
    just fine (my view) or whether one should used a "seated" inversion
    unit like the one his company designed, but I agree with him, too.
    When someone has clear spinal issues, such as Sheldon's displaced
    disc, further stretching the intervertebral ligaments by immediately
    dropping into full inversion with using gravity boots hung from a
    chinning bar can be damned dangerous. I doubt you'll find an
    orthopedic surgeon or chiropractor who will tell you differently.
    Both Davids are recommending partial and gradual inversion, and both
    are right.

    But you're right that "anonymity gives morons courage." The trick is
    figuring out who the morons are.

    I'd definitely be inclined to take Cohen's word for his non-anonymity.
