recce101 Posted March 3, 2008 Posted March 3, 2008 Guess I'm older than the oldest hill -- I do remember them all, as I said in the other post (in political season, ya gotta be consistent). But I don't think I ever knew what lumbago meant. Is it a vegetable, a color, or a disease? Aloha, Ned Quote
J.C. Posted March 3, 2008 Posted March 3, 2008 Lumbago is sore back. Lumbalgia I got my first one in October just got the treatments for it on February 18 and 22. Back pain is the expression now. Jackie Quote
luvmydog2 Posted March 3, 2008 Posted March 3, 2008 Gosh. I must be getting old also. I remember 15 of those suckers. Quote
Patti B Posted March 3, 2008 Posted March 3, 2008 I'm old, too, I guess - I remember 12 of them, I also remember my dad being diagnoses with lumbago!!! Patti B. Quote
Nushka Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 How old am I? Older than dirt...I remember all of them. Remember the word comsumption? As in disease? I think that was TB. If not, let me know...lol. Nina Quote
