You're trying to start a Bernie Sanders revolution. Lots of charismatic crusty old man complaining with unrealistic solutions.

I'm a Clinton style politician. An unlikable insider who advocates incremental change.

I'm the establishment so I win.

We need a medical forum where you can go when hurt to get the internet diagnosis. Also, we could talk about the worst things to get. You know...aids, anal absess, migraines, cancer, etc.

I'll just say that this worked like a charm for me. Well, I used this for a day and then my wife gave me some of the stuff she got for hemorrhoids after birthing AW jr. The application is....unpleasant...and depending on how much you use, it's like half an enima.
1st, and most important, make your poultice.

Poultice Ingredients:
* 2 tsp turmeric
* 2 tsp baking soda
* 2 tsp coconut oil
* 1/4 tsp or 15 drops of tea tree oil

1. Thoroughly mix all ingredients in a small bowl, preferably glass, to a smooth paste consistency.

Next, start treating the abscesses.

Treatment Method:
1. Take warm shallow bath or sitz bath with epsom salt for 20-30 minutes. Re-filling with warm water as necessary.
2. When done with bath, pat and dry the area with a towel or cotton cloth. Never allow infected area to stay wet.
3. With a q-tip or other type of swab, apply poultice directly on abscess, spreading it over the entire area.
4. Cover or stuff gauze into area so it won't easy fall out.
5. Use powder or cotton in your inner wear to keep area dry.
Ideally, do this three times a day with the last before going to bed. If in the morning, the abscess hasn't begun to drain, repeat daily till it does.
Note: In my case I started before going to bed, not even taking a bath and the next morning the abscesses had already begun to drain :-) However, I did have to change my bed sheets ;-)
But, this and the hemorrhoid stuff had me back to normal in 2 days. Also, this [expletive] is so [expletive] disgusting.

This election cycle is high stakes drama that will lead to repercussions throughout history.

Debating whether or not Aaron Miles should be stumbling around second base? You're grasping at a leaflet of prayer for an invocation of the butterfly effect.

I think it is. It's just that it's politics playoff season and baseball isn't doing [expletive] for another week, so it'll get better from here.
I really hate when I get caught changing my grammar around...always a rush when typing at work.
Me too. Between my typing skills (fast but not all that accurate) and my spell checker and rushing at work it's awful. And I don't know why I don't check before I hit submit, but I don't. I really have a better command of the language then I let on here. I'm actually ashamed of myself in threads where sigh is in. I feel like I'm just ruining his day.
This. Once I see sighyoung, I immediately try to take my time, and re-check...it's weird.
Sorry about that. I really don't go around second-guessing anyone's typing or grammar.
