I got hit by a car years ago on my 10 speed, punted 30' and screwed my knee, Norm -

Never bothered me until the last few years - got some knot on the side now, probably calcium..I dunno...

We've been giving our dogs glucosimine chondroitin, one of them tore her ACL a few weeks ago, she's going to Boston Feb 3rd for surgery...

I'm gonna start taking it too - haven't yet, but want to see if it helps.

Be warned, it ain't cheap - look for it at CVS or something when they do the 2 for 1 on vitamins and minerals - the vet told me brand doesn't matter, start at 250 mg to see how it's tolerated and try to push it to 1,000 - I guess the same would be true for humans -

Google it and check it out anyway - it gets good reviews with no serious downsides that I know of - good luck.

Start it now man - if ya wanna hit the Spring blackfish spot in your old backyard...

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
