Not to be hateful but I think that anybody who does not get poison oak/ivy/sumac should have just one good case of it so they know how lucky they are. It is absolutely miserable. A man never truly knows how much his private parts move throughout the day until he has poison oak on his vitals.

Well my trade off is having eczema lol so I have no idea if its flaring up or I walked in to something.

I'm not allergic to poison ivy or sumac
I can roll in it

I never really knew what it looked like. I pulled it off trees and waded right through it.

That can all change. My Dad was never allergic, used to brag about rolling in it and pulling it off trees and fences without issue. Several years ago, around age 70, he got one of the worst cases I have ever seen. He is scared to death of it now. I don't know how a person can not be allergic, then all of a sudden be allergic, but it happens. Me, I have always been allergic.

I was told that being stung as many times as I did that can make me allergic to stings but fortunately for me I'm not because I test the theory all the time.

I was told by Dr. At hospital that every 7 years your body changes to allergens.

 

[huskyboy]

What's that mean

I was told by Dr. At hospital that every 7 years your body changes to allergens.

 

[RI Chevy]

Means that you might not be allergic to something today, but in 7 years your body could change and you may be allergic. For example, you may not be allergic to poison ivy today, but in 7 years, you could get an allergic reaction to it.
Your body goes through changes.
That's the way I u understand it.

When the next Doc tells you that, point your fast tach at his/her head, cause his/her brain is certainly leaned out.

You can develop an allergy to any antigen at any time in your life. No specific timing.

Not your fault, you're a trusting individual.. The doc was an idiot.

Yea, my Daughter raises Ducks and sells the eggs. I love em, but I can't eat them. First time I just got mildly ill, the second time I thought I was gonna have to call 911 on myself, the dry heaving would not quit! I hear stuff like that can get progressively worse every time you do it.

 

[maulhead]

Yup, I got one of them!

I've had two of them 362c's, one ported, one stock'r, sailed them boff.

Yellow Jackets got me as a kid 3 times. Once when I was maybe 4. I had 40+ on my head.

When I was 11, where we lived there was a string of cow bells on the side of the house for a wind chime. A whole colony yellow jackets or hornets (not sure which I never got close enough to find out) filled the cow bells one summer.

My 8 year old sister was being annoying one day. I sat and waited near the cow bells with a hand full of rocks. My sister came walking around the side of the house looking for me. I started throwing rocks at the cow bells, from a safe distance, they all came out in a swarm, must been 40 or 50 of them or more, and they all stung her on the back. She ran to find my mom, screaming bloody murder.

Shortly after my mom found me and drug me in the house by my ear. She had my sisters shirt off in the kitchen with ice packs on her back. When I saw the welts and swelling from the stings on my sisters back I felt really bad. Needless to say I got a matching set of welts and swelling, on my butt & legs from the leather belt my mom took to me.

My day started out with this.

Quickly turned to this.

Then this. 24" diameter red maple, hard as hell.

Now for some vids.
Just to set the record straight, I purposely ran the tune fat due to being newly ported. I will lean it as it wakes up and brakes in. Set to 13500. Toward end of day it was almost 14000 rpms.

Ended up with a decent load of wood.

Red maple that's hard as hell? I think you might need a wood education.

I've had bad luck with bees. I sprayed a yellow jacket nest one day and got stung by a honey bee walking back across the driveway on my ring finger. It swelled so fast I almost had to cut my wedding band off.

Almost lucked out!

 

[mdavlee]

Almost lucked out!

Almost.

 

[Coltont]

Chit the bed. I'm still laughing that red maple was "hard as hell". Maybe the limestone under the log was hard as hell?
