Caught the Flu Bug

Sorry for not updating my blog lately. A couple weeks ago, I caught the flu bug during my vacation. Two days prior to my vacation I had to call in sick, never had to do that before. I've never ever been so sick in my life. I was literally in bed for those two days with a fever, body aches and cough. Let me rephrase that, not body aches, but muscle cramps.... every single muscle was cramping up on me, even muscles I didn't knew I had were cramping up on me. I had to take pain meds for 5 days straight just to get out of bed. The cramps hurt so much that even turning over in bed was a chore to do. Never in my 41 years have I had so much pain to deal with. All this occurred 2 days after I took my flu shot. Whether or not it had something to do with my illness is still up in the air. Even today I still have a slight cough. Oh, I went to see my doctor to get me tested for H1N1 and it was negative, but that flu bug really kicked my ass!

Wow! My first post on my blog.

Thought I would jump on the bandwagon since everyone and their grandmothers have a blog writing about nonesuch and the kitchen sink. Now I gotta figure out what to write for my blog. Maybe I can start writing about plain nothingness, hmmmm, anyone have any ideas?

Uses for WD-40

I posted this on FB, but I thought I'd do it here too: WD-40 article According to WD-40 folklore, a guy who had just bought a new pickup got up one Sunday morning and saw that someone had spray painted red all around the sides of this beige truck (for some unknown reason). Needless to say, he was very upset and was trying to figure out what to do. His neighbor came out and told him to get some WD-40 and clean it off. It removed the unwanted paint beautifully and did not harm his paint job that was on the truck. Water Displacement #40, AKA WD-40 began as a research project to develop a rust preventative solvent and degreaser to protect missile parts. WD-40 was created in 1953 by three technicians at the San Diego Rocket Chemical Company. Its name comes from the project that was to find a 'water displacement' compound. They were successful with the fortieth formulation, thus WD-40. The Convair Company bought it in bulk to protect their atlas missile parts. Ken East
