I don't get sick hardly at all. Seriously I bet I haven't had more than a handful of colds in the last 20 years. Ha to the reports that night workers are sickly sorts! Maybe I'm not exposed to as much although since I share a desk, keyboard, radio, and phone with 4 other people there are plenty of cooties handy. Heck my kids don't even get sick but once every 5 years. The only time we all got sick was about 15 years ago when something nasty swept through the family and were were all down for a couple of days but that is it.

I am usually rather stuffed up when I get out of bed for about an hour but I blame that on probably being slightly allergic to cats and the fact that I've got one that hold my nose while I sleep might aggravate things but it is worth it. Looking at my aspirin bottle I see that they expired in 03 and taking a peek at the handful of pills in the bottom I see 2 different types so I know some were from the bottle before that. I did finally have to replace last decades bottle of ibuprofen but that's because I tore my meniscus playing tennis and between that and the surgery I went through a few.

I'm a big fan of Vicks and for a sore throat nothing works better than hot Jello which coats the pipes with sugary goodness.
