Denmark has the opposite problem. Our PM almost had one this autumn but in the end he couldn't get it up.

Your are a braver man the me, Gunga Din

Quite it doesn't surprise me at all most of the time my depression expresses itself as a mild to moderate funk, not crushing sadness or anything but a feeling where things don't matter and I end up existing more than living. At most I might feel "alright" or find something somewhat annoying but that's all I feel capable of feeling then. That's not to say there are periods of what one could really call happiness or sadness but mostly it's numbness and fatigue and even when you know what would help just making yourself do what you need to is just more energy than you have to spare.

So the incessant sneezing cleared up today with just just as little rhyme or reason or reason as it started. While it's a relief it just make the face I don't know why it happens and how to prevent it all the more annoying.

It doesn't really sound strange to me. I strongly suspect that depression may be linked to other problems and interact with them synergistically. For example, I also suffer from SAD (season-affective disorder) which means I tend to feel drained of energy in the darker half of the year. Relatedly, my late mother was an alcoholic on top of being depressive, which certainly wouldn't have helped her depression any. Add the fact that I am all but certain that she also suffered from undiagnosed Diabetes 2 and it is not surprising that she died at a rather early age.

Not sure what it was.  I went back to sleep right after I wrote that and woke up about noon, and feel like I should go back to bed, which I may or may not do.

Good for you Prof.

That is VERY good news! I am so happy on behalf of you, your wife and your family. Not to mention this whole board, which benefits so much from your gentle touch and your wry sense of humour.

That is great news!

Good news from the hematologist—no leukemia! His nurse called and said what they'd found in the first test was just a glitch. Whew! Still have to see him about the high white blood cell count, but that's nothing by comparison.
Still low on my Vitamin D2 levels, though. My regular doctor called in another prescription for the heavy-duty stuff (50,000 IU).

Yeah, waiting for news like that can be crushing. We're rooting for you, mind you, for what that is worth.

That jerk!  
Was he really trying to kill Elliot all those times just to get to Tedd?
Also, it seems a "Seer" is another name for what Tedd is.

I would honestly prefer Pence or Kaine to Trump or Hillary.

I suspect that any dramatic revelation that Trump is a con man will accomplish nothing. Who did not already know this?

I don't care about proof values. If you guys blow up the Pharaoh or light him on fire, you are in trouble.

Seems to have worked.

Sounds more like you created the God-Emporer of Mankind. You didn't consider trying to have him just take full control of the Navy and conquer the universe?

Goodness, no. That would be a violation of his oaths as an officer and gentleman.

Adobe. Don't forget it literally means chunks of dried mud.

I do not normally comment in person but once again I feel compelled to make an exception.
Whatever other issues of policy may be at hand, I am greatly concerned by the president-elect's apparent intention to disengage from old alliances across the world. NATO in particular has been of obvious importance to my homeland. Denmark is a small nation with little in the way of military power and is situated in a position of immense strategic importance to Russia. NATO has helped ensure a long peace in Europe, one which has lasted most of my lifetime with few interruptions. On such occasions where other nations have attacked the US, my homeland has every time reciprocated by placing forces, planes and naval vessels at the disposal of the US. Also, it is worth noting that the esteemed JML of this forum has served the US in Europe for a number of years and thus aided in extending this peace, for which I owe him my thanks and gratitude.
No alliance lasts forever, of course. But I must confess to feeling strong pangs at the thought of NATO coming apart, not to mention considerable worry at the thought of what Putin and similar strongmen might do to take advantage of it. That other similar detentes around the globe are also in danger does nothing to reassure me, I fear.

137 Examples of compromise over 7 plages. After a while of doing that and having you never compromise thrown in your face and you are gone just plain stop trying. Hell, even Buddha may be upset if his face is hit three times.

Which is to be fair a perfectly reasonable stand.
