Hope you are taking the back pain seriously. Lots of my friends have failed to get better and seen their ability to play sports and enjoy life deteriorate more than you would think a little back pain would cause.

"Me do you, Rommel2D"? I hope that isn't a come-on.

The back injury seemed like a fluke and cleared up on its own. I currently live with a family member who suffers chronic back pain, so I know how much it can ruin your life. I really don't know what to do about it except keeping weight down, doing situps, and watching posture while lifting/sitting.

The thing that worries me now is problems with my knees and the sports I play...

R2D, check the name of your former capital, then. Since I could not fit the name onto to one city, I split it in two...


I hope you weren't too ill

[jshelr]

I know what you mean about sports injury. Ran marathons for years and gradually the little injuries piled up. At this point, it's golf and the exercise bike

There is a family of back exercises that work great. Sit ups are definitely not in the picture when feeling pain. One is bringing the knees tightly up to the chest. Another is lying flat and pressing the small of the back flat to the floor -- really, even though it sounds weird. You might find these at a med web site.

Back pain's all gone, like it was never there...

About the sit-ups, I meant I do them as preventative thing. Strong abs are supposed to help with back support...

OK, sorry to do this, but I will have to add to Rommels pain...

Reg musket kills vet MI, loses 2hp, and is promoted,
vet knight kills vet musket, 1hp lost,
reg warrior kills elite archer, 2hp lost,
vet pike kills reg warrior, ledoto is captured, and the "Fragile Spanish are wiped out"...


EDIT: and sent...

[jshelr]

damn it!! My knights had to leave the Arab harems for nothing. morale is going to be low. It will get lower when the Egyptians turn to their Portugese problem eventually, I suppose.

Anyway, well played R2D. Our backward civs will struggle to reinvent the wheels you already knew.

we might as well end the thread. it's just as easy to email the other guy and ask where the damn turn is !

But then how will I know how elegantly Krill wipes you out, Jshelr?

:P
