Very carefully!

Somehow, ME injecting doesn't cause quite the reaction that somebody else driving a shaft of metal into my skin does.

Wuss!

I got the vaccine a fews years back. Didn't bother me much. The Shingles virus looks worse that a couple of injections.

I was feeling a bit old on a cruise I just got back from, two weeks on a Seabourne cruise. Everywhere I looked, it was scars from knee replacements or open heart surgery. Bad thing was, my wife and I were one of the younger ones and my scar from my valve replacement is old enough not to be very noticeable for an 8" scar down my sternum.

Those mid-1970's Chevy station wagons had the third row seat facing backwards (like the kids are seated), and came with a strong warning about driving with the back window open because the aerodynamics was so poor that the exhaust was sucked into the cabin through the back window and retractable door.....

I rode to church every Sunday when I was a kid in the 60s in the back of a station wagon.

Ours was a 9 passenger (third seat facing backwards) 1958 Plymouth station wagon. My fellow cub scouts thought it "cool" to ride back there.

I used to climb in the "way back" and take a nap whenever we went anywhere. One night after going to a restaurant for an after-season team party, I waited at the back door for my step-father to unlock it for me. Imagine my surprise when they just drove off. I tried running after them, but... I went back into the restaurant and sat in the waiting area of The Hungry Fisherman in Stone Mountain, GA for them to come back. I must have looked quite pathetic. Took them about an hour to come back. They drove all the way home before realizing they were missing something.

I remember riding in the bed of a dark green ‘54 Ford pickup while my dad
sat up front with the owner/driver. I was about 5 years old. The truck bed
was wooden with about a 1 foot piece missing, so I could see the road
passing by. Riding in the back with me was a box of oranges. I shouldn’t
have to explain the rest of the story except to say the oranges spun so fast,
they flattened out while ejecting juice.

Pro tip: It's not a race so you aren't really behind. What matters is how you treat one another every day. The rest takes care of itself.
