Any and all advice welcome!


Get an AOR.


Well said Peter!

AOR has a real tuning knob. Just a lot more repetitive injury immune
operating.

And exceptional performance.

I am not joking about WD-40.In cold weather my middle finger sometimes
will lock up from arthritis and when it does that, it hurts like hell.If
I spray a little dab of WD-40 on it, it works Wonders, for me anyway.

Some people spray it on their joints for arthritis pain relief. WD40
goes through the skin really fast. They probably do get some pain
relief, but it's a real dumb thing to do.

WD40 rots your liver pretty fast if you keep putting it on your skin.
You can smell it on someone's breath about 10 or 15 minutes after they
absorb it. That's how fast it gets through the system.

Don't do it. It's stupid.

I quit the booze in February 2009.I probally have used WD-40 on my
finger joint four or five times in my life.I don't think there is
anything rotting out my liver.

There are people out there right now, spraying WD-40 on all kinds of
things, and some of that WD-40 gets on their hands too.
What are you going to do? Outlaw WD-40?
Horse lininent would probally be just as good.
