Hey all, just a short note. My mother discovered that she has developed an extreme reaction to bee stings. As I occasionally fear for my mortality, my doctor gave me a prescription for an EpiPen. It is a little auto-injector of epinephrine that I keep in my first aid kit. The pen is good for any allergic reactions (bees, bugs, deadly flying stinging plants (OK, those would be bees too I guess)), and even if not necessary, will not have any adverse site-effects if used on someone when I am just pissed off at them ("Hey, get moving -- JAB!"). I guess it has the equivalent power of a couple of cups of coffee. Just another bit-o-gear for the boat. -Patrick *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Fri Feb 18 2000 - 12:02:11 PST
