What does it feel like to be comfortably numb?

Wish you were here is better! Anyways, the video doesn't do anything for me. If anything, it kinda gives me the urge to go rowing.

As for your actual question, my best guess is a bit morbid. I imagine bleeding to death could induce "comfortable numbness."

The sign remains me of a project I worked on a few years ago. We were doing the project kickoff meeting up on a mountain top with a bunch of radio towers. The group stopped to discuss some aspect of the project. We were there for several minutes before one guy noticed the sign in front of the dish we standing in front of, something to the effect of "FAA transmitter, do not block. Danger! Radio frequency radiation!"

And here I was thinking hydrocodone and a glass of wine.

Yes it's boring in blue water but you're right - "Wish you were here" would be a good one to do with the leaving NYC footage I have. :)

Well if you cannot see it, feel it, hear it, smell it nor taste it then it can't be bad for you, right? :biggrin:

No it just happens to be there at the bow. A dip in the pool sounds good now though. I think we all should get naked! Now! :biggrin:

Full moon and it's going to be getting orange looking in a few hours they say...

I'm up for some skinny dipping and some lunar eclipsing. ;)

I still have a bottle full of Vicodins... and some brownies...

The closest I've gotten to these has been higher doses of Dimenhydrinate which I must admit to taking fairly often. I've taken as many as 10 or so, when I was much heavier. But I've never taken enough to actually hallucinate or trip out, just got a nice buzz.

I just got a filling today, and the numbness in half of my mouth gave me nostalgic flashbacks to 5th grade. :awe:

OK, OK, OK
Just a little pin prick.
There’ll be no more, aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh,
But you may feel a little sick.

Can you stand up, stand up, stand up.
I do believe it's working good.
That’ll keep you going for the show.
Come on, it’s time to go.
