Let's be serious, there are others on the list before me. Just check out the "post count increaser" thread. Or maybe they was good little boys and stayed over there? ANyways, and more importantly (I can take a shot in the face), salmoneering. I tried it properly today- it was awesome. I went for the less swiming more climbing option of trying to traverse the whole way whilst it was possible, but fell in a few times resulting in some funky semi-rapid swimming and a *haggisdonny shitz his pants in fear!* jump over a waterfall. The end result? A new sport is born! Spread the word, but let's keep this old new style semi-secret: we don't want posers making it all mainstream, and if the word "shizzle" is ever used in reference to it I will shitz pants in rage.

so this morning was something a little different... unsettling and downright alarming. I was in bed, sleeping as normal as could be, when sometime around sunrise, I ended up having two of some kind of seizure, within minutes of each other. One of my roommates who witnessed the event called 911, a few minutes later some medical guys showed up and assessed my situation, then recommended I check into the hospital and get examined ASAP. The roomie drove me to the ER to get checked out, which after a CT scan and blood/urine samples, was inconclusive as to the cause, other than it's not caused by some sort of brain tumor. The Dr. there referred me to a neurologist to get some further testing done, informing me that until I'm cleared by the Neurologist not only should I not drive, but that were I to do so I would be violating the law. This means no work for the next week, as driving is an integral part of getting stuff done. Upon reflection, I can only be happy that the seizures hit me while I was sleeping, rather than some time driving down the road, or perhaps soloing on some of the local routes as I have a tendency to do Oh yeah, and somewhere in there during the seizures I bit the fuck outta my tounge... it hurts like a BITCH!

Damn man, that sucks. Do some research, and get multiple second opinions. I had a friend who was having some sort of siezures. Multiple neuro exams, doc appointments, money, time... no explanation. Lost his license for months. Not to mention the emotional stress. His G.P. finally decided to do some routine bloodwork. Turned out he was just mildly diabetic and simply had to monitor his nutritional intake. Siezures went away, he's been fine ever since.

Eep! Get to the bottom of that, fast. Make sure they recheck the blood tests. It would suck to be out of driving and epic climbing for any length of time due to some overlooking on a doctors part.

Will have to catch up someday when I get my laptop back WOW! I've seen tower sites that have been hit before, and the towers are built knowing that they're going to get hit eventually. I can hardly imagine all that destruction concentrated in a fucking HOUSE! ...still... wow. yep, thinking about buying a ligtening rod. Apparently this area has had a 20% increase in lightening storms this year. global warming sucks It has nothing to do with global warming. This year did set a new record for rain, at least in Toronto.

Bummer. I here there is a certain "medication" that can ease seizures. Hopefully they didn't permabanz you from driving. They are ghey like that. Bec had her license suspended after her accident and she didn't even have a fair assessment. It was a pain in the ass to get it back. Hopefully your doctor didn't actually report you.

Have you gotten any notice that you're no allowed to drive? I'm not sure if verbal commands are enough. Not that its a good idea to drive right now regardless. I hope you didn't get the paperwork to tell you you can't drive. I went though all that crap, it still took months after seeing the neurologist to have all the paperwork go through and get my license back. It sucked.
