You know you're in a small town when the town's name is on both sides of the same sign.Lynnville only has one row of buildings - population less than 300.).

Whenever I get to meet my first cardiologist, I'll remind him of this

My cardiologist ran every heart test known to man and a genetic test on me for cholesterol.
Without medicine, it will run 550+, with medicine 235-260.
Turns out it is due to a genetic condition with about a foot long name which means if I ate grass and drank water, I'd still have abnormally high cholesterol.
It's not from what I eat or what I weigh or how much exercise I do, etc. - it is purely genetic.
What makes them a little crazy is that I have no blockages from it anywhere (and they have looked everywhere!).
They've ripped my left leg open twice and both surgeons were amazed that my arteries were completely clear (blockage was blood clots from a aneurysm stent).
I don't fit the 'standard' profile so they are a bit puzzled to say the least.
My primary care physician is fine with it since he has observed it for over twenty years and got it figured out.

I've known you were "non-standard" for quite some time now.I don't fit the 'standard' profile so they are a bit puzzled to say the least.
When we finally met at BRG, my suspicions were confirmed.
Keep on making them guess, Phil.
Lord knows, they're paid enough...
Doesn't that put a bow on it. Seriously Mars Bar was my all-time favorite candy bar -king of my many favorite candy bars. Long since discontinued its many various on/off iterations were mere shadows of its former self.
Even now Diet Dr. Pepper is a very scarce commodity at my local supermarket. Everyday we lose something that made the world a better place.

I went into my local Publix Grocery yesterday, and they were completely out of plain old saltine crackers.
It seems shortages of staple items are getting more and more frequent.

Yes, Lynchburg is about 50 miles farther east but you can take 129 to get there from Lynnville - and it is a nice ride!139 Mill St

We've passed somewhere there on the way to JD distillery.
All kinds of great MC roads in that area also.

yeah, I think that's why you always have to question your medical professionals. We're all different, but their treatment tends to follow a more 'standard' model because that's the most likely scenario.I don't fit the 'standard' profile so they are a bit puzzled to say the least.
I agree a second medical opinion is often a very good thing. Or just get the latest 'advice' from
WoW. Very well done sir.Since I knew today would be the last chance I will get to ride for probably the next six months, I rode to one of my favorite places to eat.
Here's what a real double bacon cheese burger looks like -
and I had to have a little sweetening to finish it off proper -
This is not the place to be in a hurry as everything is cooked fresh to order.
And as I've said before, their 1/2 lb double is two 1/2 lb patties of hand patted meat specially seasoned.
It's a heart attack on a plate, but you go with a big smile on your face!

Hey Phil, send a pic of that burger to your doctor I'm sure he'll love thatThat could be arranged - but it will be a while after Monday's 'repair'.

I've searched for weeks to find Zagnut candy bars for my wife. Dozens of places. Had my brother looking too. He finally found some at Cracker Barrel. I had him buy me a dozen.
