Air Benders

[Phil8659]

I bring up this topic because I got a very interesting piece of mail today.
How to live pain free, drug free, surgery free!
I am now 75 and have never heard of such a thing, so I will start at an unexpected place, Air Benders.

Now, this is an oriental cartoon theme, and I imagine it may be some way of claiming the first human flights, or the discovery of flying. I, on the other hand imagine that all of the chirping birds do is some kind of laughter at people thinking than mankind discovered the art of flight, which, although very self flattering, is simply not true.

So, the mail I got, promising me these things, opened up to some time of meal system using, of all things, pasta.

So, here we go. The oriental air benders have nothing, absolutely nothing, on Italian spaghetti benders, Now, being an honorary member of spaghetti benders all my life, I wonder why it is, I have never learnt to fly through life without pain, pain meds, or surgery?
I have to be just another slow learner.

Now, about bending, does this mean that the era of Yoga is passing? Body contorting for heath may as well be air bending or spaghetti bending. Did I waste a lot of money on my home gym?

I do not know, but I know of few people who have my blood pressure and pulse stats, of any age.

I have been hospitalized a few times for nerve damage and hernia's due to either work, or city water. Eye damage is outpatient, so I do not count that.
Otherwise, I stay away from hospitals, and as far as pain meds go, if I need them, I take them generally one time, not often a couple of times, and dump the rest down the toilet.
As far as edema goes, I got that when I took ten years off, generally, from working out my body to write my works in geometry. I studied and I wrote, all day, neglecting everything, which put me in the hospital twice because I was not active enough and it fucked up my lymph system. I am working on that now.
