The people conducting the test couldn't believe what they had to do to get my heart rate elevated. It took them nearly 50 minutes to get my rate up (adjusting the tread-mill slope four times).

Makes me think you actually were some sort of prototype weapons system that ran into a cost overrun. <BR/><BR/>Glad things survived the temporal dissonance and flat. How is the nerve damage in the shoulder mysterious? I'd have thought that either it was systemic from the neck and shoulder. Or is it a localization problem they're having?<BR/><BR/>I don't see you with hearing aids, but it might be because I expect you've been enjoying the ability to tune some folks out at will, and those would make it more difficult to do so.Joshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16418987113438669699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8243351006478134285.post-91418967200384184862007-10-24T13:28:00.000-05:002007-10-24T13:28:00.000-05:00Okay, I'll quit whining like a Seaman assigned to ...Okay, I'll quit whining like a Seaman assigned to a Tiger Team in the Hole about World Series tickets. Your day was obviously worse.<BR/><BR/>Can anything be done about the neck, shoulder and knees issues, or is it one of those "grin and bear it" kind of deals? <BR/><BR/>I'll eventually have to get one of my knees replaced, and I also have the classic noise damage that I think everyone who works and lives on ships gets. Funny, they never mention that in the ads.<BR/><BR/>"Navy...FULL SPEED AHEAD...to hearing loss."<BR/><BR/>"It's not just a job, it's an adventure in hearing loss!"<BR/><BR/>"The United States Navy...Accelerate your hearing loss!"<BR/><BR/>Good luck with the rest of the poking and such.You're an Assholehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02634153185390764524noreply@blogger.com
