It does help...though the aftertaste leaves something to be desired.

Yeah, for handguns they have a purchase permit. It lasts a year though. Mine should expire before I have cash for a toy. It is pointless socialistic garbage. They do exactly the same back ground check with the purchase permit as without it so it adds nothing except bureaucracy at the sheriff's office and an extra fee. Sometimes I wonder why people claim this is still a free country...

Or you can take zinc and C vitamins and skip them. I can't stand their after taste.

My understanding of the way Cold-eeze works (and the other zinc preparations) is that the zinc actually coats the cold virus. It's applied, rather than taken, by either spray, swab, or in the Cold-eeze case, by saliva.

Exactly... the zinc coats the mucuous membranes in your mouth, throat, and nasal passages and inhibits the virus' reproduction. Simply taking zinc in pill form won't have the same benefit.

Okay, I don't ask this often, and if you don't have time that's okay. But do you remember (can you find) the last time I was debating traveling a long distance over a short time for a funeral of a friend or friend's relative?

I'm not sure it has any bearing on anything. It's just bugging me.

Thanks.

30? eek! The wait here is about 3-5 days. Before shootmoot my new permit came in JUST in time for me to get the wood griped buckmark on the top of this pile. I odrdered it days before and it came in thursday and my permit came on friday. I picked it up just before I headed south.

In the good news department...

Wife is wearing two of the same size shoes today. First time since the accident.

Jr. has a job interview tonight at 6 with a local sporting goods store. Prayers would be muchly appreciated. It's his first "real" interview.
