Did Gulliver ever bend down so far?
Jul. 16th, 2004 10:09 pmThe BBC utterly justifies the licence fee. (Though this does bring qualms to my soft lefty free-speech-nutter heart.)
Give money to the United Nations Population Fund — Bush is fucking them over again. We just gave US$15.

Mostly better. Yesterday morning I visited the British School of Osteopathy, to get poked and prodded on the cheap by a student. Although osteopathy started as generic New Age quackery, in Britain it's getting quite regulated and the BSO actually tries to do proper research. And, like chiropracty (a quack haven to a similar degree), if you leave them to working on your back they may well do a competent job.
I did my back thirteen years ago ... filing. At the DSS. The rib popped out of its ball joint to the vertebra at T 6/7. It was put back in short order, but the muscles around it have been fucked ever since and the rest of my back has warped itself to compensate. So the programme is to get the tensed-up soft tissue mobile again, while I continue exercising as I have been and eating proper food. This is eminently plausible and I did feel better after they inflicted pain on me. So I'll be back next week.
The blonde fairy (

with artificial stupidity once more. *giggle* *flounce*
I went to work today. I was almost falling asleep at my desk. Work is such a stupid concept.
