Back2Good

Guest
Although you'll see me signing my posts with "b2g", because it requires fewer keystrokes and I'm a lazy old man, my handle, "Back2Good", actually explains pretty well why I'm here.  After suffering a heart attack a couple of years ago and subsequently being diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension, I went through all of the recovery medications and procedures the specialists recommended, "graduated" from their recovery program, then set out to read about my condition, with the result being (drumroll.....) The specialists have no better idea of what happened to me than I do.  My HDL / LDL levels are smack in the middle of the established "normal" levels for my age, as are my triglycerides, there was no arterial blockage, and I have no congenital cardiac conditions - No one knows how my pulmonary hypertension came about, only that I have it - And it is an incurable condition that can be controlled with medication, but never cured.

Not much else to tell about myself other than that I'm an army veteran (signed up to get that sweet G.I. Bill money and found myself in two conflicts, Panama, then recalled for the Kosovo campaign), played football in high school in Central Texas and for the Big 12 university I attended for undergrad, and am currently a program manager for a very large hardware / software / services firm.  I have three children, all grown and gone, and two grandchildren, a wife who's managed to put up with me for 26 years, and I'm a few years short of retirement - I'm the guy you see at the hotel check-in desk asking if they take military or AARP discounts (or both), and ordering from IHOP's "Seniors" menu.

Best regards,

Drugbuyersguide Shoutbox
  1. Gracie5 @ Gracie5: Shout box is for sports, hey, Happy Thanksgiving. It’s not for those other things people like to bring up. Please use or start a thread in the appropriate place.
  2. L @ LW815: Better to push other worse discussions out of sight IMO and see random sport shit, but also kinda makes it hard to have that content removed if need be. I don’t know how to view the entire shoutbox recent history but I know it’s possible lol so it’s both a good and bad thing tbh
  3. Ketmaster @ Ketmaster: exactly
  4. L @ LW815: I agree @Ketmaster but their lengthy sport discussions usually tend to happen at convenient times, like when somebody is talking about or asking things that the shoutbox also isn’t meant for(that are worse than random sport talks)
  5. Ketmaster @ Ketmaster: I appreciate the good vibes but I agree sports stuff should like be in a thread or PM or something, not a sports guy so it is kinda like wtf is happening people are messaging each other in a shoutbox
  6. T @ timyboy: Where is the guy with the BTC predictions?
  7. F @ Floaty: like them using the shout box tbh, its appreciated good vibes. Not sure if the box has another purpose seems like its the correct use though
  8. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: @Layne_Cobain Yeah I'll start a thread for us in the Sports section later this morning.
  9. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: @Layne_Cobain Yeah I hated Canales' playcalling. Run the ball. That's what 9ers did since they knew it'd be that type of game. But at the same time, the panthers have a young core, and that was their biggest game in years lol. I understand MNF throwing off the passing game sync and shit just from being hyped up.
  10. L @ luquitoad: Yall should start a sports thread and keep it out of the shoutbox..... just a suggestion .
  11. L @ Layne_Cobain: I don’t think we’ll be in prime time again anytime soon 😂
  12. L @ Layne_Cobain: What a horrific game @tiquanunderwood seeiously embarrassing. Defense did their job Bryce the offense and Canales play calling has been atrocious
  13. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: @Layne_Cobain legoooo panthers babbyyyyy
  14. L @ Layne_Cobain: Congrats!!! @tiquanunderwood 5 in a row to climb back into it is amazing… and @MCAJB6122 I agree 💯did not see that coming. Can’t recall the last time there was this much parity across the league it’s insane
  15. M @ MCAJB6122: Chicago at 8-3 has to be the surprise of the season so far
  16. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: Tied for 1st in the North! Chicago beat Pitt. Leggooo
  17. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: @Layne_Cobain yeah we look ugly on offense. but hopefully we continue to pull it out. Me too man Go Panthers !
  18. L @ Layne_Cobain: @tiquanunderwood good luck today against gang green buddy…can’t wait for MNF
  19. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: Hope everyone enjoys football sunday!
  20. M @ Mammasboi123: Thanks @MGAJB6122. I think for future reference, everyone should get in the habit of using the “report” button found on the bottom left of the top comment in threads like the ones mentioned in order to flag threads like this. I’d imagine it’s easier on @Admin than having to check the shout box every day or so.
