That's the kind of childhood I had.

I'm the unknown stuntman that made Eastwood look so good.

This topic is now about Lee Majors.

BoggyCreekBeast (awesome handle) You're right. The one line I remember from "Crystal Skull" is "We've reached the point when life starts taking things away instead of giving them to us."

Rest in peace, Farrah.

RIP Farrah!

Rest In Peace

i think it was the funniest guest until a rapper named joaquin showed up

i think it was the funniest guest until a rapper named joaquin showed up

I lost my dad to cancer, or in reality, to chemo therapy. If people would actually wake up, pay attention, read a fuckin' book, and not dutifully believe every fuckin' lie told them by their governments or so called authorities they might start to question the inconsistencies presented by an avenue of research being conquered and the continued threat of curable diseases and conditions.

Fuck you cancer and fuck you medical community, ostensibly playing god to fill your coffers.

My thoughts go out to Mrs. Fawcett's family, because she most certainly didn't have to die from this.

The money's in keeping you alive as long as they can with the disease and keeping you in constant treatment.

We should all be driving electric cars, cancer free, and taking vacations on the Moon by now.

The sad thing is, we'll be reading the same headline about Mr. Swayze any day now...

Sorry, but this is something that makes me angrier than anything else as I watched my sister-in-law suffer through treatments for breast cancer all of last year, and get two conflicting reports about it near the end, and they always, ALWAYS find something else just when you think you're finally ok. Of course people are scared to play russian roulette with their life, but you know what? that's exactly what your'e doing by LISTENING to these fucking idiots. I don't go to the doctor because they HAVE tof ind something wrong with you... that's their job. And even for doctors who don't want to prescribe something or just want to say, "You know what your problem is? You're a hypochondriac, now go home, take some advil, and stop complaining," at least 50% of their patients are paying so much for healthcare that they go to the doctor every time they have an itch because 'Hey... I"m spending all this money, might as well get something for it.' Is this the correct attitude to have about OUR HEALTH? give me a fucking break... I don't like Michael Moore, but Sicko made some damn fine points about how fucked up things are.

Another medical story - my grandfather, who is built like an ox, worked his ass off his whole life as a construction foreman and was a junk collector (the dude could strip copper wire all day just for the fun of it), and is about as old school as you could get (had a pigeon coup in his yard his whole life), had some heart problems about ten years ago and the doctors told him if he didn't get a quadruple bypass, he wouldn't live another year. Yeah... he's EIGHTY-EIGHT NOW. He told them to fuck off, that of course they'd say that because there's money in it and who's going to argue with the doctors, and that the surgery alone would probably kill him. The big guy is still alive and kicking.

R.I.P. Farrah... maybe someday, people will stop dying from cancer because of greed.

I'm open-minded, but I find it very difficult to believe that I should trust the answers of the same people who would have to rethink their livelihoods should they find an answer to the problem they're trying to solve.

That's like believing tobacco companies are really and for true pursuing a tobacco that doesn't have addictive qualities.

If pure, non-profit driven research were actually behind the search for a cure for cancer, well then I would support the cause. I just can't help thinking that cancer has been cured and that cure was buried right with the person (or persons) whom discovered it.

It's a suspicious thing, to say the least. And I most certainly tend to say way more than the least.

I'm not saying there's nobody in the medical research profession who doesn't care it's just we have thousands of drugs for every thing from crazy leg syndrome to erectial disfunction. It seems most of the time and money is spent on short term prevention or long term treatment.

I want to pick up the paper one day and "Cure for Cancer found, and it's free!" And every once in a while I do read about some study in Finland or some such place where they managed to eradicate cancer cells from a group of twenty mice with no reaccurance of the disease, then I never hear another word about it.

If all the money that went to continuing treament went to finding a cure I'm sure they'd come up with something pretty quick.

Cunt. Watch a loved one die from cancer and then spout that shit.

I don't think there are too many treatments for anal cancer so the treatment debate is kind of pointless.

you should seriously be banned for that post. fucking dumbass loser. i guarantee you've never faced a single genuine hardship in your life, much less had to deal with protracted life-threatening health problems.... you know what, fuck it, you're not worth anymore of my time. go fuck yourself, idiot.

She was, along with Linda Carter as Wonder Woman, the fap material of my teenage years.

You might have heard of him.

You're a loser. Either drop the name IndyAbbey Jones and start a new account and don't be a fucking mongo or stop posting all together.

at best.

consider your welcome outstayed. fuck off.

cure for cancer = on the way.

Astrazeneca have developed 'olaparib'. This could be FUCKING INCREDIBLE - Remember this name...

Now that it has happened I am sad. I was just starting my career of jacking off when Farrah's poster came out. Now, I actually didn't think she was all that hot like most of my friends back then did but I still liked those nipples of hers. I always preferred jerking to Jaclyn Smith pics.

So long Farrah. No more suffering.

Please. Give me a fucking break you fake ass holier than thou douchebag.

Yes, that was a squirting analogy.

idiots in glass houses...

If your mother should perish of cancer in the near future and is lucky enough to have a messageboard devoted to them, I hope you're EQUALLY forgiving of someone stating exactly what IndyAbbeyJones said earlier, and someone else spamming the same board with a link to their website.

I'm not posting on here again out of respect for the deceased.

Yeah, that's what I thought you said. Now run along Gerbil boy.

I have no idea if there are conspiracies, but what dixieflyer said is true. Every cancer is different and so research and treatments must differ. Support research and, most of all, support sufferers.

By the way, being "old school" and denial and disdaining treatment is not a viable plan. No doubt there are folks who go into remission. God blessed them. Do not count on being so lucky yourself.

OLAPARIB is a new drug, literally announced today that showed amazing results in prelim tests. it closes down one of the bodies own primary cellular repair routes, which means that the body uses a secondary route - this alternate is causing the tumours to stabilize and in many cases to actually shrink.

News report here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/hea lth/8116790.stm

Local broadcaster KABC has said the 50-year-old singer was taken by ambulance to the UCLA Medical Center.

The Los Angeles Times has reported he was not breathing when paramedics arrived at his home.

The paramedics performed CPR and took him to the medical centre, the newspaper says. No further details were available.

Jackson does NOT upstage John Lennon or Princess Di.

I can't wait for the insipid media coverage of this.

Will make the Heath Ledger shit look positively refined.

You can bet that the guy lugging doctor equipment around the ward for minimum wage, isn't going to pass the chance up to sell the confirmation to one of the only sites that will run it.

Just want to know what the TB is gonna look like...

She was a goddess to 1970s kids -- the hottest woman in the solar system and married to the coolest guy on the planet, Lee motherfucking Majors.

As for THAT poster, I saved up money and bought it a Wynn's five and dime in Austin back in 1977. I still have the poster and have considered framing it every now and then, but promptly forgotten about it soon after. I may just have to do it now.

Man, I feel old.

R.I.P.

And Hector is one creepy ass robot. Something hideous and disturbing about the way he/it moved or something. Could never put my finger on it.

Paramedics at the scene report he never got his color back.

Fuck THRILLER and its over-rated four-decent-song-having-spindl e-hole.

As if he's measuring the length of his own.

Please, John Lennon, Princess Di. Hell, even Kurt Cobain trump Michael Jackson.

Except at NAMBLA conventions. They're all kinds of tore up over it.

RIP
