Not sure I would go with heat, especially if you have swelling and inflammation. Cold is better. Forget the weight exercises until the pain/inflammation subsides. Start a regimen of bicycling.

If you don't have one you should get a safe deposit box at the bank. Or if you are too cheap for that, at least get a fire proof box to store your DD214, car titles, insurance, etc. For those with an AKO account, your DD-214 should be a scanned record for you to look at. Hell they even have my origi...

SOCNET Refugee

I've lurked here for awhile, but as SOCNET is my usual home I haven't posted. But after two days of jonesing with no SOCNET I figured I might as well give my keyboard a workout. My background: Bio: 1973-1977: 2/504 PIR, Ft. Bragg 1977-1979: SOTI, Heidelberg, Germany 1979-1980: 1st COSCOM (Airborne),...
