    Are you Allergic?

    Yes, I'm sick and bored. So far the prevailing theory is that our sudden weather change here in Texas has stirred up my allergies. Cedar pollen is the most likely culprit for me, which brings me to the topic of this thread: what are you allergic to?

    Not quite allergies but great nonetheless .

    I only have one allergy and that's amoxicillin. Lucky me, I get to roll around in a field with dogs that shed all day long .

    In my childhood, I used to be allergic to pollen and cats.

    Somewhere in my teenage it just went away. So right now I'm not allergic to anything.

    My girlfriend on the contrary is allergic to a lot of things, way too much to name them all : nuts, dust, cats, dog, pollen, metal, etc.

    After 55 I found myself, during springtime, allegic to some tree pollen.

    I have a very bad reaction to the chemicals from burnt tobacco. My eyes water, my throat closes up, my sinuses throb, and my nose starts to run like a faucet. This happens even from the chemicals being on someones clothes from smoking earlier. Every year it just gets worse.

    I am getting alergic to all forms of loud self-promoting Pompousity from the mouths of staunch ignoramuses burning my tender ears with their constant nonsense.

    I know I should be tolerant of everyone, but sometimes I just have to get my tender old ears out of the range of their ranting mouths.

    And of course I am allergic to ever again using Windows on the Internet!!!

    I know a woman who lives in the Berkshire Hills of Massachusetts that is allergic to just about all chemicals. Cologne, deodorant, hair spray, lipstick, etc. etc.

    Years ago she was featured in an article by an ecological magazine.

    I'm very glad I do not have it that bad!!
