  • nahsrocketeer75, on 05/12/2008, -0/+7Here's what I want to know: In polite company, if one's hip squeaks, does one say "excuse me"?

  • dianebl, on 05/12/2008, -0/+1What, you think your sex drive magically disappears when you turn 40?

    You haven't been to a nursing home lately, I take it. The elderly residents have *tons* of romances going.

  • PharmacistMike, on 05/15/2008, -0/+0My Pop got a hip replacement a year ago and boy does he feel left out. No squeaking and no sex. I guess he'll have to wait a while.

  • v1mk, on 05/13/2008, -0/+1I have knee replacements and I, being as vane as I am, can not imagine the embarrassment these patients must go through. Listening to that noise and watching that video made me grateful that I am not going through that.
  • Thundercat1971, on 05/12/2008, -1/+2If you're old enough to need hip replacement, you should NOT be having sex.
