Yah I know what you mean Bri...Some moments I am almost convinced my body is a terrible prison, and I am the restless inmate. I wanna be free, I just don't want to have to die to do it. I'm sort of non-commital.

Fuck that..... in addition to flying cars, 1950s science fiction movies also (falsely) promised we'd be able to put our disembodied brains in beakers on carts.

Have you tried the thing where you pour water up your nose with the thing that looks like Aladdin's lantern (but cheap plastic)? I know a guy who swears by it.

Yeah, the neti pot. It does really help but the congestion comes back (it's more a constant cough now).

I wonder how much snot a human body can manufacture??

I'm not really sick of having a body. I just want the one I used to have 20 years ago.

I'd kind of like to go back to the one I had even ten years ago. But that would mean giving up meat, cheese and butter. :headshake

I think I could deal with being downloaded to a silicon matrix as long as it had a penis.

Read Eon by Greg Bear, if you haven't already.

Oh by the way, I wasn't necessarily talking about *my* body that I used to have 20 years ago. ;-)
