Im

just surprised there’s anything in your head

 

California has a new law to help our hearing , all vehicles under 6k lbs and excluding motorcycles you must comply with a 95db noise limit at idle and st 3k rpm or receive up to a $1k fine

 

Glad I am not the only one that didn't feel like going out to the store. So I didn't. Might grill after all. And blow soap bubbles while I am doing it to take pictures of as they freeze. The voices in my head told me to do it.

 

Is it just the majority of the voices that have to agree, or does it have to be unanimous?

 

In Andy’s case it’s just echoes in the void

 

It is the last one to speak. Isn't that what everyone else does?

 

I tally the votes, keeps me from making any quick decisions.

 

My wife asks me who are you talking to, but I can’t hear her, so I don’t answer. She calls it selective hearing.

 

You’re kinder than me I just told mine she says so much I just can’t keep up

 

Just say your 3 friends.
Me
Myself
I

 

My voices are assholes, we don't speak to each other often.

 

I just did a pan of taco meat, read your post and decided to ingest prevenitive treatment!

 

The voice inside my head told me to take a nap. So l did for 2 hours.

My dad would say the same thing about me when I was a kid.

Always wear hearing protection at work. I seen to many people at work retire and not hear. Back in the day they didn't offer hearing protection. I even wear it at home when cuttin grass, trimmer, chain saw and any power tools.

 

Yea I don’t have much left. Maybe I can enjoy quiet when I’m deaf.

 

one thing i did do was wear hearing protection. workin in a factory,shootin thousands of rounds,chain saws etc...my dad and FIL cant hear a damn thing. both served in Army in the 50’s and all they did never wore hearing protection. we get tested twice a year at work.

 

Well it got up to 5 above. -5 windchill. So I put on my big boy pants and shirt. AKA: wool long johns.

Cheddarwurst. Bacon wrapped little smokies. Topped with Sweet Baby Ray's at the end.





Was hard to get a picture once done, the heat coming off them created quite the cloud in the cold. But damn it was good. Worth it.

 

There is a tinnitus thread

 

Mine was a locally brewed treatment from Dallas. Pretty darn good.

 

Within a year at my last duty station and according to the Navy Corpsman that tested my hearing I lost 20% of my hearing . Never worn any type of hearing protection

My shop was located next run up area and with 24/7/365 flight ops it was very noisy . Hearing F4's doing a Run up was loud , now add in C141 Star Lifters or C5 Galaxies was even worse

As for Healthcare from the VA for hearing loss , it's a joke !!! . The most disability you can get is 10% and you have to meet specific requirements
