Overheard in the Kitchen...

Setting & Dramatis Personae: Bobbi is in front of the microwave preparing tea. I stumble into the kitchen, groaning and looking somewhat the worse for wear for trying to fight off some bug or another, searching for the morning's first cuppa joe.
Me: "Ohhh... I'm dying..."

RX: "Yes?"

Me: "I'm dying the death..."

RX: "'Murdered to death?'"

Me: "The death of a thousand dances!"

RX: "You know, in French you can actually say that."

  2. I was referring to "murdered to death," but the other is okay, too.

    TAKE 30 DROPS OF COLLOIDAL SILVER IN HALF A GLASS OF WATER GARGLE AND SWALLOW TWO DROPS OF COLLOIDAL SILVER IN EACH NOSTRIL REPEAT 4 TIMES A DAY

    WE SHOULD ALSO BUILD UP YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM WITH VITAMINS AND DIETARY SUPPLEMENTS

    HOW IS THE SCHNOZZOLA DOING ?

    ALSO RX 50 RDS PB 235 GR 45 ACP @ 25YDS PRN TO HELP CLEAR THE VAPORS AND IMPROVE MORALE

  5. Ermmm ... I saw someone at a libertarian gathering who abused colloidal silver.

    His skin had turned permanently grey.

    I'd want a bit more medical study before I started self-experimenting with heavy metal ingestion.

  6. Colloidal silver? You might not feel better, but you may become photo sensitive!

    Step it up a notch and have a shot of Goldschlager instead. The placebo effect from the cinnamon schnapps is great even though the gold is inert and will pass right through you. Gives 'panning for gold" a whole new meaning.

  7. Silver is an antibacterial agent - but if you truly have a bacterial infection, your doctor can prescribe better and safer antibiotics, that won't turn you blue-gray. And (to the amazement of liberals), if you don't have insurance you can even pay for the office visit yourself.

  8. That was pretty bad. Had Roberta knocked you down and kicked you for that one, well, you could have posted pics of the bruises and not gotten much sympathy.

  9. COLLOIDAL SILVER IS NOT ANYTHING NEW
    THE AMOUNTS THAT I RECOMMENDED CAUSE
    NO HARM IT DOES HAVE ANTI-BIOTIC AND ANTI-VIRAL PROPERTIES AND CAN BE USED
    TOPICALLY AND INTERNALLY TO GOOD EFFECT THE GREY -BLUE SKIN YOU DESCRIBE IS ASA RESULT OF GUZZLING GALLONS NOT DROPS
    RELEGATING A USEFUL REMEDY TO PLACEBO EFFECT OR SPREADING HORROR STORIES THAT HAVE NO REASONABLE BASIS IS AT BEST IGNORANT THE REASONED USE OF COMPLEMENTARY /ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE
    IS AS EFFICACIOUS IF NOT SUPERIOR TO CONVENTIONAL TREATMENTS DONE RIGHT IS LESS COSTLY WITH FAR FEWER SIDE EFFECTS IT IS A PITY THAT MOST
    MEDICAL PEOPLE ARE NOT TRAINED IN
    THE PROPER USE OF DIETERY SUPPLEMENTS VITAMINS HERBS AND OTHER OVER THE COUNTER NOSTRUMS WHERE
    APPROPRIATE

    1. Sorry, Navagator, but I gotta ask---WHY ARE YOU SHOUTING? TOO MUCH TIME IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO RUNNING TURBO-JETS?

  10. I used silver salicilicate on sunburn, and it was interesting having silver-grey feet.

  11. JohninMD: Navagator is posting in morse code via packet radio, or some such.

    We aren't sure if he is on the high seas, the Island of Rhly'a with dread Cthulhu, or just in Antartica ... but we do know he does not have a shift key on whatever the hell he his posting with.

    So he gets a pass until he can rejoin the real world.

    Hell, if he stopped using ALL CAPS, we would just get confused anyway.

  12. Guys, Navigator is apparantly posting via a medium that only has upper case.

    Seriously. I'm not kidding.
