 GJ> Frog legs taste more like crocodile.
 ML> interesting...

As more crocodile farms operate in Northern Australia and PNG, the
meat is becoming available in more and more restaurants around
Adelaide.  Although usually served lightly stir-fried, I prefer it
grilled to get some surface brown markings.  That intensifies the
flavour, which otherwise is rather bland.  You may get similar results
when you barbecue your American alligators.
 
 ML> there... this body seems to be falling apart more rapidly than
 ML> anticipated, lately :( 
 
 GJ> That's bad news.  I really hope things improve soon.

 ML> it all started when i had a bit of a cold or flu... that wasn't too

 ML> mid 1981 before i went into the USAF... the back being out is the worst
 ML> part... all the other is over and done with and actually was in a
 ML> pretty short time... i can't stand or sit for very long and when it
 ML> really starts bothering me, the only real solution is to lay down...
 ML> can't do that at work where i have to be on my feet for 10+ hours a day
 ML> :( 
 ML> and then there's the new pain pills... danged things do help with the
 ML> pain but i'm so loopy that i practically don't even know who i am...

 ML> my apologies if that's more than you wanted to know :LOL:

I can appreciate your pain and frustration.  Most people have some
back pain at some stage in their lives, and I have had my share.
Fortunately I have a physiotherapist in the family, and she gave me a
set of exercises and rest techniques to use to allieviate it.  I hate
using pain pills, as I don't like the side effects, and I prefer to
try to treat the source of the pain to remove it.

Being continuously on your feet for such periods would greatly
aggravate your condition.  If you could take a minute off every hour
or so to stretch out and let your spine decompress would help a lot.
One of the standard books on back pain relief is "Treat Your Own
Back", by Robin McKenzie.  It covers every aspect of prevention and
treatment of back pain, and even tells how to stand for long periods
without developing pain.  Although written by a New Zealand
physiotherapist, this book is used in USA as a standard reference.
