A combination of natural athleticism, good diet and three years work as a tactical operative for Mossad mean I hardly ever get sick, but for the last 48 hours I’ve felt pretty rough.
It’s just a sore throat but when I cough blood comes out. Combined with the God-splitters that pretend to be headaches and an inability to talk without tasting copper I’ve been a bit slow over the last couple of days.
I’ve tried a couple of things (see illustration) but nothing’s worked thus far. There’s nothing you can do of course. I just want sympathy and a little extra time to answer email. Thanks in advance.
(Blogging his own illness – could that be the greater ill?)

I always knew you were a sick, sick man. Take care of yourself, okay? Don’t make me send the army of vinyl-clad nurses.
Watch as much porn as possible. That usually helps.
Well, it helps me anyway.
Feel better Sam!
Sabrina: *don’t* make you sent the nurses? I think you have that reversed…
Quinn: Not at all. I’d kinda like to keep at least one or two… Though if Sam needs them, of course, then I’ll consider them commandeered.
Thanks all – I will be back in the saddle soon. Sabrina, do your worst.
I took all the pills, two of the lines and spent about half an hour with the gun in my mouth crying. I feel a lot better now.
Ah, the Axl Rose. Always good for what ails ya.
Thanks Mike. Dr. Feelgood never let me down. I’m wearing lizard pants right now too. I am Motley Crue (sorry but I’m too wasted to put an umlaut on that bastard)
Sam, I spy a teacandle in the photo. I’m disappointed. The only way to medicate yourself is by a natural or good strong fluorescent light. Or you’ll end up snorting gunpowder and rubbing coke in your hair. And that’s not gonna help your cold any. Think of your health!
Take care of yourself sweety. Maybe some hot tea?
blood? very bad. I hope the medical care is cheap and good, wherever you are.
I agree with Sabrina and Viviane, you’re a very sick man.
Does this mean I need to use gloves and a condom to read this blog? Do we need to call the HazMat team?
Take care of yourself. Stop blogging and get some rest. Never mind that the Feedburner feed is broken.
Get better soon. Blessings.
Maybe a vacation is in order? You probably can’t keep up the superhuman pace we all know and love forever…
I’m sure you just need a little care and downtime. I say let a few days go by…
Always the business-man, Sam manages to throw in a Craig Clevenger reference while telling us he is sick
Hope you feel better soon!
So…… you have Consumption? Or The Fevuh?
The former…. I have no idea. The latter… I can give you a prescription for more cowbell. That might help.
(get well, babe. i need my entrotainment and you being sick is just killing that)
Ellie – you win a prize. That was for Craig (he lurks here).
Viv – In Latvia medical care comes via bribe. Luckily I’ll be in London before I go to Africa in May where medical care comes in boxes dropped by parachute.
Mouz – Feedburner needs help I know. It’s not my fault I swear.
I’m feeling a lot better today. Luckily I was brought up around such constant illness and am English – anything short of impending death is ‘a cold’ where I come from. I should probably be dead but it’s like the time I broke my back and willed my spinal cord back together. I’m tough. The throat’s now just ‘a bit rough’ and no longer bleeding.
It was the cheesball that did it (cocaine and cheese – very hip right now) I feel better than James Brown.
