I sure hope Rick's alright!  

[tbonesullivan]

Oh boy, hopefully he gets proper and complete medical care STAT. Even much younger people can be done in by severe respiratory infections.

[scottcald]

Terrible to hear.  Get well, Rick!

[ARM OF HAMER]

                                       Scary stuff and he IS such an Integral part of the band Cheap Trick who w/o Rick is..................not "Cheap Trick". Breathlessness.................that could be quite a few things, all of them bad. I hope they are able to find out just what the issue is and he is going to be A-OK. Must have been awful for his son when that happened. Get well ASAP Rick!

STOP USING "IBS" unless they're dead. Hell, I thought Rick had up and died on us.

IBS=In Bad Shape. Dead=TDC=The Dying Continues. As I understand it.

But it doesn't matter 'cause he's been dead for decades 🤣

Someone read the glossary.

That is correct. However, there been innumerable instances of "IBS" being used, tongue in cheek, to announce a death... Therefore, whenever I see "IBS", I automatically assume the subject has died.

DaveH's mood is IBS...

That's the great thing about IBS - its versatility - but your assumptions don't change its usage.

That said, I don't think IBS was warranted here. 

"So-And-So: IBS" definitely implies a more grave situation than an old man who found himself short of breath.

What if he has a urinary track infection, UTI?

I'd be shocked if he didn't.

It'll take him out. It took out my dad.

If he had irritable bowel, then we'd have to say IBS IBS.  IBS IDS (in deep shit) might be acceptable.

[hamerhead]

This is giving me an irritable bowel.....

....and keep in mind what "N.S.U." stands for on Cream's first album (1966)

That established, some folks have opined that the live version on the  first live album is arguably the ultimate live song by them, no small accolade considering that  Cream established their own boundaries in performance. They really went balls-to-the-wall/take-no-prisoners on that 1970 version of "N.S.U." And it has the arguably greatest drum riff ever (twice)  starting at 9:26.
