Out of the Blue

I used some of that zinc stuff last week at the first sign of a cold, as recommended. Once again, this stuff worked like advertised, as I did not suffer a single sniffle or other congestion-related symptom all week. I have, however, been suffering from a nagging sore throat ever since. I imagine this may have to do with the zinc suppressing the mucous shed that causes all the coughing and sneezing, which I believe also helps get the cold out of your system. Anyway, this is all just my effort at connecting cause-and-effect, but if this soreness persists another day or so, I may just head out to the doctor to make sure it's not something more serious.

Great Sopranos last night, and the premiere of Deadwood was even better than I had hoped, and I already had very high expectations for that one.

How dose CO2 rise in air, which is comprised mostly of Nitrogen? Is CO2 magically able to generate lift? Swamp gas?

Add: Lineage II is kinda boring, i've kinda solidified my opinion that untill full VR tech is avaliable to the general public that these MMO games will remain boring. Here's to the future!
