ROCKS IN HEAD: PAT BERNARDINI developed some dizziness. His heart tests were normal. He saw an ear specialist and was diagnosed with "Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertio." This malady is caused by an accumulation of debris in the inner ear called Otoconia or "Ear Rocks." He was instructed in how to do some special home exercises called the "Brandt-Daroff Exercises." Pat noted that: "The exercises made my dizziness go away, but hasn't made my chest muscles any larger." The class will be taking up a cash collection for future breast implants. More on this common affliction of the middle aged can be viewed at the following link: Rocks in Head

MORE HOME CULTURE STUFF: For those who can't get out as much as they would like, we've started a new review of easily rented movie fare- appropriately called "Neal's Movie Picks". Those selections reviewed can be viewed at the following blogger site: Neal's Movie Picks Please feel free to add any of your own.

Keep the best company.

Be much with those who are much with God.
