I admit I may be the oldest poster on this board. Got my own age problems to deal with but think I’ve done better than most in staying active and pretty fit. Can really only call on my maker for a report card. And I get it.
But is there any better example of how a lap band surgery recipient congressman demonstrated that his surgery never cured his weight problem but choked off what little cerebral capacity he had prior to his surgery?
WE JUST SAW IT TODAY!!!!

Re: Lap Band v Lap Brain’d: Health Question?
What or whom are you talking about? Of all the posts I have seen of yours, none makes you seem more senile or more irrational than your OP in this thread!
No precept or claim is more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

I’m pretty sure that he’s describing a hallucination, Gunnar. We should probably be kind or ignore. Or both.

I think I know who Bach is farting about. He has lost quite a bit of weight and seems very much brighter than Bach.
Laparoscopic band surgery works well for many people and is minimally invasive. I have no idea what kind of surgery would cure Bach. Lobotomy?

I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy. Sorry, I just have to say that every once in a while....

Who might that be? What does he/she look like now? Do you believe that person is physically fit given the obviously breathing problems?
And I’d love to know what this supposed person has ever accomplished in life. Quite sure this person would trade places with me in a heartbeat. Most politicians would if it was just for a bank account. But having to actually invest and manage anything with their own skin in the game ..... well, that’s why their politicians!!!! The real world requires a lot more!!
