Apparently so. I've seen at least three different ones today alone. Upon reflection, it appears painfully obvious that I need more to occupy my time.
If you want to feel genuine dread, go sit on top of Mt. Redoubt with a bunch of marshmallows on the ends of short sticks.

He does not self medicate. I'd wager that his biggest slam of meds in his cabinet is a bottle of Tylenol.
His unease is not from the gloom of impending doom. Come on, Mike, you've been around here long enough to know his situation. The man is happily married and has 3 or four daughters. Enough said.
[size=+3]SNAP OUT OF IT MAN[/size] Are you on call this weekend, no? Of course not. So, now that you don't have to worry about putting your finger somewhere God never intended it to go, let's find a project for you. CHANGE THE OIL. Change the brake pads. (There's a spare set of new pads in your box full of spare parts I sent.) Bleed the brakes. GO FOR A SPIRITED DRIVE, break in the brake pads following the instructions in the box. OR, you can sit at home, watch TV and pick the lint out of your navel. Take your pick. all else fails, call my cell phone, you have the number. I'll hold my phone out the window as I buzz around in the 360 today. GO MAN GO!! DM
Here's why...http://www.kxan.com/dpp/news/Road_signs_warn_of_zombies Zombies instill a sense of dread in me too
that manatee joke shouldn't have been so funny, I'm literally wiping tears from my eyes from laughing so hard.... I guess its the simple things in life
You have a BP issue?? How can that be?? I take lisinopril myself. Sometimes I get a little cough. So, feeling better today? If so, then this should be your new avatar. USS Texas. It's a dreadnought. Image Unavailable, Please Login
I don't take it for BP. I take it to prevent the adrenaline affect that is likely the proximate cause of most strokes and heart attacks in "Type A" people. No matter how stressful the office or OR gets, I feel calm and have a heart rate of 50-60. I'm not joking; one of my buds that's a general surgeon did this and after thinking on it for a while, seemed to be a good idea. Drawback is its hard tho get heart rate up for exercise and feel winded early.
I have a high-maintenance co-worker who is 61 that goes off at the slightest provocation. It's even money now at work whether he retires or drops dead from a heart attack. Definite type A (in his case it stands for ******). Maybe I might suggest your med to him whenever he not in a rage-haze. I too feel uneasy, but that is because I have been reading guys like Roubini and Mike Shedlock on a daily basis.
