All right! Danz is here. Now we'll see if he comes back again or if it was just a one time jo2fro2 kinda visit.

Colds, huh? To tell you the truth I usually just deal with em. Sniffle away until they quit bothering me. If I actually get sick I might try to ingest some extra VitC...but me thinks it is all just an old wives tale.

4 pints of good ale will usually sort it out. Ale contains all the ingredients required to help your body fight illness.
Oh shit

ground up ginger root
honey

(some also like to sprinkle some paprika on top)

I had the privelige of enjoying a cup of the above mentioned cold remedy last night. Felt better, and tasted good...

Ive had a nagging cold on and off for the last couple of weeks as well.... cant seem to shake the thing...

Take Vitamin C until you pee day-glow yellow, and Miso soup is supposed to be very good for a cold I hear.

Be as healthy as an l2icks0r! and you won't get colds... I have been in close proximity with four sick people and I really thought that I was going to catch something but nothing happened.

If I were you I would:

- be cleaner than usual, you know wash hands more etc..
- avoid caffiene
- avoid drinking a lot of alcohol
- avoid stress
- consider taking a day off from work, stay home and don't go out
- get a quality echinacea supplement
- get a lot of vitamin C
- eat well and often ( garlic is good )
- get lots of sleep at night 8+ hours (use Nyquil if can't sleep)

You'll be as healthy as an l2icks0r! in no time!

Heheh, you've all got that new strain of 'Tokyo AIDS' that you catch by looking at little tarts in boots... It spreads fastest in crowded trains.

Eventually your nose falls off.

Not one of my pictures that one. The site that it's from accepts submissions though. So you could share data on your condition before your nose falls off and you die.

How's the 'cold' danz? I bet the Asahi Supaa Dorai didn't do any good eh?
Oh shit
