Anton Chekhov - noted 19th century author, playwright, and humanitarian.

Pavel Chekhov - 23rd century fake Russian guy with terrible, contrived Russian accent (but next to Spock, actually is my favorite Star Trek character).

Well, I was close.
 
Yes, because you're forced to pay taxes. If you weren't -- then what?

Nice that you admit that taxation is by force. "At the point of a gun, under threat of prison time."

If I wasn't forced to pay 40 or 50% of my income to the government? I would only pay for the services that I use, of course. With the additional income available to me I'd save more, spend more, and donate more to my church.

We have a new voluntary toll road here, I77 north of Charlotte. Two or more lanes are non-toll, and one or two more are toll, the fee varies based on delays in the "free" lanes. I always take the toll lanes because I hate being in traffic.

Pay your taxes,and STFU
 
No problem, I can really empathize. After I had the ruptured aneurysm, I joined a Yahoo group for survivors. Another guy who had had the SA hemorrhage related how he had to go through the same thing with that agonizing pain -- in our case it was caused by the free blood circulating through the cerebrospinal fluid and irritating the root nerves as it did so. The pain began in my shoulders/arms and eventually worked its way down the trunk to both legs. If he hadn't told how long it lasted (months) and said that eventually it resolved, I think I might have been suicidal. It was far worse than the year-long headache for sure. I wish I could take away your pain.

Are you seeing a pain management physician as well as your surgeon/primary doc? Has anyone discussed a spinal cord stimuclator?

I have been so remiss in not replying sooner. Your post changed my entire attitude. Just as a stranger on a Yahoo forum gave you hope, you did the same for me! Unfortunately, my affected right leg collapsed from under me, and I fractured my right ankle.

Yes, this is the worst summer of my life, but you made it better. Thank you so much!

It saddens me that I have to announce ANOTHER Forum Rat is amongst us. ----->Dark Soul.
Yes. It's true. Dark Soul snitched out ol' Jack for a minor infraction.

Now, I have a few theories about this. I'm not sure which carries the most weight.

I've been banned twice- Both times after responding to a Dark Soul comment!

He/She/It's a 3 holer- Has a Big mouth- is a Pussy- and an Asshole!

I'm glad for that, but not for your fractured ankle. It's past time for things to turn around for you, eh? ((hugs))

Thank You for this information. I was forced to put Dark Snitch on 'Ignore'. (something I never do)

I dunno. Compared with most of the Nazis here, and on a good day, he shows glimmers of intelligence - and I put quite a few of the nutters to silence as a matter of mental hygiene.
