Here is my attempt to get Joe to move to Pittsburgh, and the rest of you bums to visit. Pay attention to #18, that should interest everyone but Ron.

If my famaily didn't live in the other direction I think I'd give Pittsburgh a shot. Only been there 3 times in my life, but nothing ever made me think I wouldn't like it.

I think I hate December... Ever since my parents divorced it's been the shits... I know Christmas time is suppose to be about family but mine just piss me off and then I hate the whole season again.. uhh... December..

I don't remember what month my parents got divorced, I think it was in the summer.

My parents seperated in September of 98 and weren't divorced until February of 2002 I think...

No one likes breaded hot wings? Man, that's the reason I like Hooters wings so much.

Am I the only one that prefers boneless wings?

:high5: Me too!

The doctor told me the other day that they do not do prostate exams anymore until you are at least 50. he had a big long reason for it, but bottom line was, 50% of men have dormant prostate cancer and it doesn't need treated until it becomes active, IF it becomes active, and treating dormant prostate cancer can cause urination problems and impotency.

Dude my dad turned 59 this year and he has had prostate cancer since he was in his mid 40's. The doctor checked it every 6 months to make sure it was still benign. Last April he went for prostate surgery, the ended up removing the mass and he's healthy. If he hadn't gotten checked, he would most likely be dying or dead by now.

According to the doctor, this is new stuff, all doctors are being told they should not look for prostate cancer in men under 50 b/c, like your dad, a lot of men have it dormant, but it may never become active. And the treatment for prostate cancer has a high probability of leading to impotency and urination problems, so they don't treat until over 50. He stated that one in 30 men who have dormant prostate cancer will become active and 99% of that time, it is after age 50.
