    Maybe not. I will not be following any links and certainly not those sent out of the blue from an account dormant since 2022. ::censored::

    I checked the link and it does direct to a real YouTube video. It is kinda funny. A guy calls into a court trial via Zoom while driving in his car. He is a defendant in a case — for driving with a suspended license. The judge’s response and the look on the guy’s face when he realizes what he just did are priceless.

    Sorry it's been dormant.
    Not really dormant, I have been looking on the forum but not contributing.
    The reason for not contributing is I have been diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease.
    Typing has not been easy for a while but is now getting better.
    The meds have taken a while to kickin, but I'm now on the mend.
    Please dont jump the gun on people who havent contributed for a while as there could be a good reason for it.
    Thanks.
    Joe

    The realization on the guy's face at the end was priceless.

    Sorry for your predicament that sounds like a real bummer. However it pays to be suspicious in this day and age with hackers and scammers seemingly around every corner. I don't follow links generally and the low activity made me more twitchy that I wanted to warn others.
    Glad all is ok and all the best :thumbsup:

    No probs Joe, and I hope you improve bit by bit every day.
    However, it would have helped a bit if you'd explained in a few words earlier.
    Water under the bridge though, so keep up with your progress.

    Glad that it’s actually you, Joe, and that the meds are helping. I have severe RLS/PLMD which mimics some it the symptoms of PD and for which I take pramipexole (Mirapex), a PD medication that helps calm the symptoms quite a bit. Hoping that your meds give you a substantial degree of relief.

    My meds for the Parkies are, Co- areldopa.
    But I have a lot of other things wrong with me including Crohn's Disease, a stent in my heart and four bulging disc in my spine.
    I appologise for my absence from the forum but I will try to do better.
    Joe.

    You do not need to apologize for your absence, nor 'try to do better'. You're going through heck, and it's great that you are able to participate again.

    Not only allowed to vote, but they can be elected to high office. There is a classic case of a US House representative from Georgia questioning the Pacific commander if stationing 8,000 Marines on Guam is wise because he feared Guam would "become so overly populated that it will tip over and capsize." And that congressman has been re-elected multiple times since then and is still in the US House.

    Only four bulging discs? Slacker. :D

    One's enough. Anyone with back issues probably clenched up when they read that. Tough to imagine.

    Great video.

    Thanks for that.
    It's even made it onto the BBC news.

    There is a Parkinson’s podcast made in the UK which has some useful and interesting information called ‘Movers and Shakers’, might be worth a listen for you and your close ones.
    Best wishes.

    Some people are dumber than dog shit!
    I’ve met plenty of shits in my time, some shits are clever, some are geniuses, but dog shit is too dumb to get out of your way….which is why you step in it!
