The power of suggestion is overwhelming. You know how you sit down at night to watch TV and some foolish commercial comes on telling you about the latest made-up ailment that some drug is going to cure- and nobody’s ever even heard of the disease? Things like RLS (Restless Leg Syndrome) or IED (Intermittent Explosive Disorder) for example, then before you know it, you’re hearing all about all of the symptoms and reaching for the phone to leave a message for your doctor’s answering service so that first thing in the morning he can schedule you for the first available appointment.
Maybe not. But one week ago, I asked for a “Glossary of Terms” to explain some of the more popular abbreviations, specifically PAD. It was clearly defined, and I've been reading some threads about members and their own symptoms.
My collection for the past few months has included 2 pipes- one purchased in early September and the other in Early October. I’ve bought 4 in the last two days on ebay! I’ve spent those past two days watching it like a hawk, hopelessly addicted to the thrill of auction action. Maybe there will be some commercial advertising for the PAD cure later tonight, but then again, it is more probably in that tin of Bagpiper’s Dream that showed up on Friday afternoon!

I figure I have to pace myself.
