    I remember my mom taking me downtown a number of times and I do remember her buying jewlery but don't remember the hotel. Also, she bought a leather purse at one of the shops in Scottsdale. The indian guy burned her name into the inside of the flap. She kept it until the day she died.

    LOL Kenny..There are both of both. I was talking about The Indian School and The Camelback Inn. BUT, yes I do remember the roads and as I recall they were dirt when I first saw them. The Camelback Inn is now a plush, high priced resort owned by one of the major chains. I recall my mom...

    I remember Indian School. They used to play polo on western saddles and ponys. It was quite a sight. I remember a little about Camelback, but Kay and I went there about twenty some years ago to look around and maybe have a drink or two. Well, we had two Bloody Mary's and the bill was...

    Interesting Kenny, In 1947 I traveled by train from Cleveland to Phoenix with my mother. I was a strapping 12 year filled with the wonders of the desert. To this day, I do not know why she took me out there other than I was ill. We were there for three months. We stayed at a place called the...

    Ah yes, I recognize it now. It's not gout. It's a severe case of little blue pillitis. How many times have I told you not to take more than three at a time. You're much too old to try to set a world's record. Remember your heart.

    Yes it is, but the pain is usually so severe that you really aren't interested in touching the skin. I have had occasions where after awhile and the healing starts that it gets to be itchy. You go to itch and whoa, I wish I hadn't done that. Generally it's nasty stuff. You may have to give...

    Answer: Severe pain in a joint. Usually starts in the toe, but can occur any joint. Almost always starts at night. When I say pain, I mean you can't stand even having a sheet on the foot. Swelling and turns bright red. In the joint.

    Another thought. Shrimp is high in Purines. Purines cause Gout. I for one love to eat the shrimp when I'm down there. A few years ago, I went crazy with them and ended up with a nasty flare up in my ankle. Now I eat my favorite shrimp sparingly. I understand Scallops are even worse in...

    I should have called Rosie. The best part was the Magistrate who told me he lived on Miracle Mile in Tucson for a couple years. I asked him if he was a pimp there and he let out a huge laugh. He said no, but there were a lot of them there. Good guy, shook hands and said watch for the stop...

    So basically he's drinking about 1 glass of 100% Cherry Juics per day. Why not just drink the juice although I have heard that caffine is supposed to be good for gout. I'm afraid if I drank that much tea I would end up like the Lipton Indians who drowned in their teapee. Sorry, some days I...

    I agree Bill. That's why I'm hesitant to take anything for it. Has the allopurinol caused any problems? And yep, I use the Indo sparingly. If I catch it in time, early enough, one 25mg pills taken every 8 to 10 hours with usually two or three max will usually get it. El Gato, I have never...
