Meanwhile, down at the dress shop... Men with apnea are anxiously standing in long lines, waiting to try dresses on. They desperately want to improve their health based on Chuck's radical new advice. As for me? I'm bringing a bagpipe to thwart any suspicions. .

Well, ok, ladies, how many of you order online or from those catalogs and then spend lots of time returning some of them.

(not sure what my point is here, but I felt compelled to make it --- oh, I know .... yes indeed, some of us indeed would buy a dress without trying it on .... that's what returns and exchanges are for!)


-SWS with a bagpipe? Ok, on my visit to your home, I will DEFINTELY bring my camera! Seeya in about 4 weeks! Clear the crumbs off the sofa!

I believe it all started waaaay back when, with Rested Gal's panty hose fix. But quite frankly, not even a bagpipe can salvage an identity situation like that.... .

I think you're right. That could also be one of the reasons I've deliberately tried to avoid using a nasal interface which would require me to wear panty hose over or around my head or however you're supposed to wear 'em......

Den - wondering why "SOMEBODY" (not naming names) hasn't come up with a "fix" using garter belts, too.....

Picture THAT one in your minds, folks!!!

We have to coordinate our freeloading efforts. Otherwise you just may be freeloading on my couch at the same time I'm freeloading on Liam's couch. Chaotic freeloading at its finest!

Probably more applicable to the restraint of other disorders, such as RLS and PLM. Now that you mention it, this thread's developments sure remind me an awful lot of that wonderfully silly "Not Too Sexy" thread on TAS years ago (note the order of posts in that thread are out-of-sequence after that message board's redesign) :

I suppose I should note that I really do play the bagpipes, so this could truly get interesting very quickly.

Well, you're good with Chuck's therapy as long as you go plaid. But Rested Gal's therapy just isn't going to work for some of us---period.

I've always wanted to play the bagpipes, btw!

Thanks
Moon,

When you ask for reviews around here, it's hard to tell what you'll get for information.....

Ain't it the truth! LOL!!

ROTFL!! Moon, we can tell you're gonna be a success with whatever APAP you get. You've proved you have determination by the fact that you've keep hanging in here...hanging by a "thread."

-SWS, funny you should mention an old TAS thread, 'cause I had been looking for yet another old topic I remembered over there (about the Infinity mask) where you said it looked like ...what was it you said?... "athletic supporter with prosthetic tail." ??? LOL!! Couldn't find that particular old thread though.

I've never wanted to play the bagpipes, but I have (this is absolutely true) done a pretty good a cappella rendition with a group I sang with about 10 years ago.

LOOKED really silly, everyone singing the drones holding their noses and making the most godawful nasal sound you ever heard, but the net result sounded just as... <insert your favorite adjective here> as the actual bagpipes themselves.

Liam, who sings as well as he writes, and who will leave it to you to determine whether that is damning with faint praise or not.
