I scoured the DUmmy's blog and lo and behold what do I find:
So how did I get myself into this situation, contracting a disease that was easy to get rid of at the onset but was instead left to fester for literally decades?
It was not easy. First, let me say that I have always had upper respiratory troubles. (SIC) Asthma.
Oh lookie: There be DUmmyism in the family genealogy:
Back in the mid-sixties when I was just starting on my annual cycle of lung sickness, my folks were going through a very nasty divorce.
My dad had quit, or was fired, we will never really know for sure, from a great job out at the Chevy Transmission plant here in Cleveland. He was a tool and die maker who was never what you would call employee material.
OK, DUmmy dad, ****ING CHRONIC LUNG DISEASE INCLUDING ASTHMA so what is the next logical course in the fine-tuned, intricate inner workings of a DUmmy's brain?
START SMOKING CIGARETTES AND MARIJUANA AT THE AGE OF FIFTEEN YEARS!But I started smoking when I was in ninth grade and the cough morphed into a smoker’s cough. The cough was now a part of my life. I went on with this infection in my lungs festering for years.
By the time I went to Ohio State in the late 70’s, I had added drinking and smoking pot to my list of things I shouldn’t have been doing because I had a chronic cough.
Cry me a river you ****ing DUmmy DUmbshit!
Do you know how many people die every year from lung cancer or other respiratory illness problems whom have NEVER smoked anything?
Andy Kaufman and Christopher Reeve's wife Dana Reeve being two of them.
"One toke over the line, DUmmy"...suck on that!
