Must be getting old

[jimoshel]

Yesterday I was having trouble getting a transmission back into the XJ it came out off. Finally with a little muscle and a big grunt it went. Got a couple bolts started to hold it and crawled out from underneath and stood up. Next thing I know I'm lying flat on my back staring at the ceiling, the room is spinning and the GF is screaming in my ear, "Where's your money?"

Naw, she didn't say that. She helped me up to the house and got me in a chair and comfy. Today we been spattin all day. She thinks I had a stroke and wants me to go see a Dr. She's a RN and I suppose knows something about them things. I refuse to go. That's how I got as old as I am, by avoiding Dr's. We'll see. Any how got the Jeep finished and test drove it today. Runs, and shifts great. Wish I could say the same about me. LOL :cheers:

No shame in asking for a second opinion. I used to want to do the same but I've got all kinda of crazy reasons why I should be going to the doctor more than I do. After a while things start getting better because of it. Besides that, what's the sense in having all those Jeeps if you can't enjoy them? Take care of yourself, Jim. The MJ community needs you around.

What he said! ^ We all enjoy reading your stories and seeing that you picked up yet another Jeep for 3 bucks and gave the guy a soda and some pocket lint and he tossed in another motor or something. Good to hear you're alright Jim! :cheers:

Now Jim, you're not that old. However, I did manage to find a photo of you with your first Comanche.

GET A CHECK UP - Ignoring a heart attack's one thing; fast, easy way out next one or 2, but a stroke can be something horrible - How you gonna do transmissions with a useless left arm?

:no:

 

 

A doctor gave a man six months to live. The man couldn't pay his bill, so he gave him another six months.

 

My doctor grabbed me by the wallet and said, "Cough!"

 

The Doctor called Mrs. Cohen saying, "Mrs. Cohen, your check came back." Mrs. Cohen answered, "So did my arthritis!"

 

The Doctor says, "You'll live to be 60!" "I AM 60!" "See, what did I tell you?"

 

A doctor says to a man, "You want to improve your love life? You need to get some exercise. Run ten miles a day." Two weeks later, the man called the doctor. The doctor says, "How is your love life since you have been running?" "I don't know, I'm 140 miles away!"

 

A doctor has a stethoscope up to a man's chest. The man asks, "Doc, how do I stand?" The doctor says, "That's what puzzles me!"

 

"Doctor, my leg hurts. What can I do?" The doctor says, "Limp!"

 

Doctor says to a man, "You're pregnant!" The man says, "How does a man get pregnant?" The doctor says, "The usual way - a little wine, a little dinner...."

 

A man goes to a psychiatrist. "Nobody listens to me!" The doctor says, "Next!"

 

"Doctor, I have a ringing in my ears." "Don't answer!"

 

 

Have your GF schedule a chk up!

You know its true! Jim - take it from me - get checked. It could be something simple or nothing at all, but why take the chance? Yeah, yeah - the doctors will probably find all sorts of crap to fret over but only you can decide to buy into thier hype.

 

Just make sure nothing is seriously wrong. This place would run outa jokes without you.

Made the mistake of looking at this while drinking my morning brew. My brew is now all over my computer desk; oh well :rotfl2: :clapping:

 

I agree with all of the above here. I personally don't go to a Dr. unless I happen to break one of my many appendages; but it couldn't hurt. I usually take what they say with a grain of salt anyway. Most of 'em are half hype, and half truth. I'm sure that your GF could find you a good one around though. It'd be a real shame to not hear about you picking up Jeeps for a few sticks of gum and a $.50 candy bar :yes: Besides who else could I buy a gas guage from and get a cool cigar box to boot? That cigar box has a nice place in the centerfold of the game case I'm working on. :cheers:

I had Hemorrhagic stroke at 34. With proper care I recovered to about 95% and now some 15 years later I don't even think about it unless the topic comes up. The key there was "with proper care."

 

 

Get your bum to the Dr. ya big scaredy cat! They ain't going to find nothin' to amputate from the neck up so get going!

Jim,

 

Get your butt to a doctor, now. An MRI will show if you had a small stroke or not. No pain involved. If the GF keeps "bitchin", you will be in a bunch of pain for a long time!

 

Wish my late wife had gone to the Dr. after she had some small stroke symptoms.
