This is a reply to the OP. Funny how you mention that now after my discussion with my Mother the other day. She said "Yup, you got all the diseases you are supposed to get". We got measles, German measles, mumps, chicken pox and whatrever, pretty much on schedule as she put it. From the doc we got suggestions for ointments like calamine lotion and such, rather than a phone book full of prescriptions. The sawbones said "Just let it run it's course, it bulds their immune system:" which is something she already knew. We all knew it, she told us. We got about a week off school and I read alot, and learned of course. And I brought up one I can't quite recall completely, if you get it as a kid you are immune to it, but if you get it as an adult it will sterilize you, something like that. She remembers, and so do I. She used to punch me in the stomach at random, at first lightly, but progressively harder. In time, the energy spent on just being ready for that helped me shed that baby fat, and build a fairly good structure. Good enough that around 40 I was still having 200 lb guys stand on my chest as I smoked a cigaretter. That did come to an end when I got older and hurt because of it, but still today I could be worse off if it hadn't gone that way. Today, you don't even want to know half of what they fucking do to us. Take your pills, be happy. Drown your filet mignon of life with cheapo ketchup from Pfizer. It's you'r call. Thanks anyway but I will pass. T
