@Ben Swank – When will the consultant contact us. I’m worried that I’m being exposed to contagious diseases. I have young children. Think about their welfare. I need answers and I need them now!!!

Is this an actual “mystery” we are supposed to solve? I keep following all these rabbit trails. Right now I’m feeling two things. 1. Like a loser because maybe I’m too old for this. 2. Satisfaction that I’m finding these little things.

Is there going to be more?

@CINCI… come on now, please give it a rest. This isn’t a sex education class. It’s a music website.

Now I am done with this subject, for now anyway.

Oops: That’s suppose to be, “SAVE YOURSELF FOR THE ONE YOU LOVE.”

Being trained in epidemiology in the army and having taught STD (Sexually Transmitted Diseases) classes to soldiers, I still pay attention to what is going on in the STD world. Here’s an article I recently saved, from ‘MSN – Healthy Living’ online: ‘HPV transmission during oral sex a growing cause of mouth and throat cancer – Sexual contact, including oral sex and deep kissing can transmit HPV from one person to another’…“And now Michael Douglas is shining the spotlight on the human papilloma virus (HPV) – the number one cause of mouth and throat cancer. In an interview in The Guardian newspaper in London, Douglas mentioned that his own throat cancer could have been brought on by oral sex, a common way to became infected with HPV. / There are about 200 different strains of HPV. Some cause common warts when they invade the skin. Others are the cause of sexually transmitted diseases. In fact, HPV is the most common sexually transmitted infection in the United States. / HPV transmitted by sexual contact often doesn’t become active enough to cause symptoms. When it does become active, it tends to invade mucous membranes, such as those covering the lining of the vagina, cervix, anus, mouth, tongue, and throat. An HPV infection can cause warts in and around these tissues. / Most people sexually exposed to HPV never develop symptoms or health problems, and most HPV infections go away by themselves within two years. But the infection can persist and cause long-term problems. These include cervical cancer in women, penis cancer in men, and in both sexes some cancers of the anus and oropharyngeal cancer (cancer in the back of the throat, including the base of the tongue and tonsils).” There is a little more to the article, to include prevention stating, “The likelihood of contacting oral HPV is directly associated with the number of sexual partners a person has had.” / As in the song lyrics “love the one your with” from the old free love/hippies days no longer applies. This century, I’d like to say, SAVE YOURSEFL FOR THE ONE YOU LOVE! Be safe and stay safe.

No reply must be all clear…

Had to contact the consultant. I’m doomed. HAHAHA

They are still processing my results. I might not make it. Please don’t fight over my records when I’m gone.

I’m a Respiratory Therapist and I’ll take my N-95 mask over that mask any day!!! … LOL =)
