The Annual Physical

[Byron]

Never mind a physical myself - if there is something nasty to be found I want to know about it asap ( and I speak as having a friend whose op. for bowel cancer last year has unfortunately nevertheless left him with further untreatable growths as diagnosis was very late).

As for Sebbie I think he will just respond that his rowing machine does all he requires for fitness.

Update, 1 year later.

Physical today. I was my same Euro-Cut maroon clunb swim brief I wore a year ago. But this time I as asked to undress to my skivies.

My doctor, a female, seemed totally notally unconcerned about the suit. She was more interested in the compression Tee shirt I was wearing under another blue poly Tee. Turns out, the Compression shirt is an underarmor knockoff under the Starter label. Nike used to own Starter, but they sold them I think.

Did I mention that that my physician has taken up stationary rowing, so we discussed rowing techniques. I've had my influence.
