Is that Manchester College, because you can't be the only mac guy there
or alternatively; how much have things changed!
Island... you mean Merritt Island. Well I bed you could not go inside the teachers lounge at MI with that. If you could, I'd be shocked.
Yes, Reglan can have some serious side-effects. I usually don't offer it unless nothing else has worked. Zofran works wonders for most people, though you probably won't be trying ANY anti-emetics soon. lol
I have herded cattle on horseback in Australia, seen Father Christmas riding an elephant on an Indian Ocean beach, climbed 7,000 feet to the top of Adam's Peak while tripped out of my skull, and saved a child from drowning in the Thames.
I have another one. I saw the shuttle Challenger explode....in person.
I was at Mila Elementary on Merritt Island (KSC is on north Merritt Island) and at the time they would ring the firealarm when a launch was going to happen. I can also remember everyone applauding because we all saw a parachute coming down in the direction of Cocoa Beach. My dad got stadium tickets but he thought it was too cold to go. Actually, we still have the passes.

I see you are into tennis. All I can say that 99% percent of the people here have not done, tennis wise, is get severely hammered by a top 100 female singles tennis player.
There was a tennis event where Ivan Lendl was going to play a post-retirement match against some other pros. So my brother law and I saw this girl serving these incredibly fast serves before the venue on an adjacent court.
Being somewhat decent players around B level, we decided to play her and she was happy to have someone hit with her. For a few minutes the two of us hit against her while we talked tennis. Then she wanted to try out some serves. With both of us guys standing on one side, she served balls so fast neither one of us could even touch the ball. I have seen mens college tennis players serve and hers were faster. While I was never good at playing against men who were college players, at least I could take a game or two in a set and hit back their serves, even if into the net. This girl's serves were so fast and had so much spin on them, they were untouchable.
So when we asked her who the hell she was and if she was a top college player, she said she was a pro, but only ranked around #100 in the world. People like Martina and Steffi usually beat her on tour. This is such a big thread, I hope I didn't repeat this story. I sure wish I got her name, or remember it if she told us.
It really was horrible. I felt out of control in a way I could barely handle. I'm sure I looked batshyte insane too, all flailing around and pleading for them to make it stop.That doesn't sound too great either
And ouch
I was never so pleased to see a benzodiazepine go into an IV. I'm always glad to hear medical staff being more cautious with that stuff. I know reactions like mine aren't that common but they're common enough and horrible enough that I wonder why doctors take the risk when there are better things out there.
I'm really careful with any anti-emetics now and question anything I'm offered in hospitals or what have you. I can take Zofran just fine (have a prescription for the 8mg ODTs) but a small amount of cannabis works just as well really, if a bit controversial.

I luuuuuuuv you Q.
I have...
Had my haircut inside the pentagon from age 11 to age 13.
Hiked to the top of Bridger Bowl, MT in early September to snowboard on a few inches of snow. Talking about a MOUNTAIN here, not a little hill.
Shot a telephone pole in half with my cousins and their high-powered firearms. (Dont worry, it was out of commission)
SCUBA night dive with Manta Rays (If you are ever diving in HI, go to Jacks Locker and do the Manta Night dive. UNREAL)

Coming from Montana, I can appreciate that...only ever climbed to the top of Bridger during the season though, so there was a few feet of snow...
Here's mine: piloted the very first plane I ever flew on.
