OMG that's too funny

I was wondering about the bandage too. I can think of a tacky comment from a southern point of view, too, but that'd be too cruel, lol. (jk)

I know how you feel, Rapunzel, my husband has a funny back too and he had an attack about two weeks ago, so I know where you're coming from there, chick. It ain't fun, is it. I know it isn't for him, but jeez...

He's not getting much sympathy. Maybe he could drive to Sandra's

Tell him if he looks like that right now he should be in a dental chair!
He looks like he has a massive toothache!

He's going to shoot you when he finds out you published this pic of him!

I did tell him that when I came home from work..that he looked like he had a big toothache!

Nope, you have to know my Jerry. He should have been a stand up comic.....he knows and doesnt' mind.....

Actually, the heating pad under the ace bandage does make sense, in a way, even if it does look funny.
I might have to try that method one day when my sinuses start acting up, lol

Now that I've stopped laughing enough to type, I gotta say that is one hilarious picture.
I laughed so hard the tears were running down my cheeks and almost down my legs (had to run to the bathroom). When you get old it's not safe to laugh that hard!


I'm probably going to have dreams (nightmares
) about this tonight. It is really just too funny. You gotta love a man with a good sense of humour. I got one and it sure makes the tough times easier.

Yes I was thinking that he had a toothache untill you said . hope that Jerry gets well soon. If hes like the men in my house nobody has ever been as sick as them even If I end up with the same thing, Thiers was worse.

Priceless! This picture would spread like fire over the Internet.
The caption should read:

When A Man Gets A Cold
And 100 million women would send it to their sisters, their mother, their daughters...


I love it! And I hope he does feel better soon.

Wow.. ok at first glance.. I thought wth.. never in my life have I seen someone with a cold look like they got the crap beat out of them by a dentist.. but after finding out about the heating pad.. it just does not help me deal with that picture any! Be a man Jerry! Your not supposed to let the women (especially ALL of them!) know how men can REALLY be!! Inventive, creative, self soothing and able to look after ourselves! What is wrong with you man? Has the cold gone to your brain or did the heating pad get to hot? Your going to ruin it for all of us!! Knock it off and whine a bit, get the bandage off your head and ask for some chicken noodle soup!!

For a minute i thought he had a bag of frozen peas under the bandage to help with his temperature


Susie over here we have " Beechams all in One " tablets that i swear by because their for colds/flu/sinus problems etc...So if you have them over there get Jerry some and he won't need to look like he's auditioning for the next "Mummy" film

It does make the tough times easier, doesn't it? When they have a good sense of humor? He's always doing things like that.

Believe it or not,other than a good cough he's got now, he says he feels much better today.....hummmmmm, I've never thought about wrapping the heating pad around your head, but maybe I should give it a try next time.....no pictures though, please!!


I asked Jerry if I could show his firefighter/paramedic friends, and he said, I already sent it to them! HAHAHA

At least some of his emergency first aid training has come in useful. Some time in the future...


"Oh, no! How are we ever to hold this heating pad to this poor victim's head?"
"Stand aside! I, Jerry the fireman, will save him!"
*wrap* *wrap* *wrap*
"My hero!"


When I first saw the pic I was wondering what fire related injury he had and why it was humorous?!?!?

That photo is priceless! Of course, his explanation does make a lot of sense. Maybe he'll start a new trend - picture a number of TCS members sitting at their computers with heating pads and ace bandages wrapped around their heads!

Tell him to put Vicks on his sinus area's. Theat will open up the nasal passages, and take away any headache the stopped up sinus's have caused. When I get a sinus infection, I put vicks all over my forhead, and on my cheeks, where the sinus passages run. I even put it behind my ears. It's messy, but it works.
