Shingles is no fun, those of you who haven’t had it. I have, and it made me wonder if it was the inspiration for some descriptions of the torments of Heck (e.g., Dante’s, the Qur’an’s, a medieval picture of the Nine Tibetian Buddhist Hecks that I saw once…).
(Since I got unexpectedly bleeped, I compensated… just because I could.)
I’m all Empathy Lad with you, marg. I definitely know how you feel!
I tried tiptoeing Through the Draft Board as Tiny Tim but they said since I was married to Miss Vicki it wouldn’t work So it was join the Jehovah’s Witness or wear olive drab. Kingdom Hall wasn’t on the bus route, so—-
Llewe: Shingles is closely related to chicken pox. So much so that young kids who are not vaccinated for it shouldn’t hang around you. I got cp from my Dad when he had shingles. Wear dark glasses if you go outside and watch out for too much sun period. It can aggravate it.
N7326 Foxtrot by all means, get a Shingles shot NOW!! I did after hearing all about how painful it is from my mother and sister. The doctor wasn’t sure my insurance would pay for it (they did) but I was willing to pay for it just to get the protection.
N7326 Foxtrot, I’ve had it twice, once in my 20s, then again 40 years later. As Rakkav said, it is the pain from Hades. The virus travels up your nerve pathways, and then erupts on the skin as blisters.

How about “Trip The Lights Fandango” (or is that “Trip The Lights Fantastic”)? Ooo, now that’s a bad idea!

I had chicken pox as a child, so shingles is something I am expecting any day now.

If Clive tip-toes he’ll tediously trip on his trunk and tumble into the tulips while smoking a breathtaking Byzantian bong to bomb a benign Broomy?

Of course you can’t tiptoe through the tulips, Clive; you don’t have a ukulele.

But if he doesn’t tiptoe through them, they might wake up.

After spending all those years in a black pit, it’s no wonder he wants some colour in his life!! (Too bad he’s stuck in a black-and-white strip…)
