Ok in the Army we had a name for this. It was a t-bag. No idea how people can be so sexually altered.

I have 2 of that design. Super long soccer tube socks! Several years ago ~2004/05 my Mom made one for me the year before she passed from cancer. That sock started to develope a hole a year or so ago. I get some large socks. Slid that one, still tied shut into a new outer sock.

So I still have a small momento that she made for me 'still usable' and still relaxing my neck etc.

Occasional drops of essential oil and stuff like peppermint, or other relaxing like lavender??? Good stuff.

What is wrong with sleep and booze? It fixes aches and pains too all for the low low price of a bit of liver damage.

I make very, very poor choices when I drink.
So I don't
Raised in Van Zandt County. Its dry. Had to go to Gun Barrel on Cedar Creek Lake for beer. 25 miles. I have made that drive in 15 minutes before. Still got there 1 minute late-no beer that nite. It was illegal to transport alcohol INTO Van Zandt co too.

I know the dark humour is there. However booze is actually a double whammy. From a biological perspective, water is multipurpose. A) hydration as we are over 70% water based; b) water works as a metaphorical fleet of trash trucks thru out our body, flushing toxins from all nook's & crannies c) building blocks for repairing every cell; d) lube for all our joints...
Alcohol on a surprising scale is the antithesis because it shuts down the trash trucks & blocks the lube for everything as well as significantly slows or stop all cellular repairs as the body must focus all workers on deconstruction of the alcohol. Alcohol is one of very few things I can recall that can cross thru the blood/brain berries and easily kill brain cells by dehydration. So even though I do enjoy dark humour - alcohol - is double edged sword to me. Sorry dude. I still like some drinks on rare occasion for the flavor but, I also drink extra water earlier and more often throughout the day to compensate & minimize potential damages. I've lost family and friends to alcohol (various reasons) sorry for the downer of a post y'all.

Not a downer post at all. We all have knowledge and opinions.
Here we share that.
Thanks!
