inFinally caved and bought a $400 steam machine for my treatment room
Game changer feels like a strong word for a hose. It's just water pressure, not a magic cure. Back pain is pretty complex for one gadget to fix everything. Seems like the kind of thing that helps for a week then you're back to normal aches.

inI was throwing away the liquid from canned beans for like a decade until my neighbor in Phoenix saw me do it
Oh man, that's the good stuff right there. My grandma from Alabama would have a fit if she saw someone pour it out, she used it to cook her greens in.

inGot caught in a surprise storm on the Teton Crest Trail last August
Forecasts are just guesses past a day or two. Got caught in a whiteout on a ridge in the North Cascades. Forecast said clear. My buddy and I had to navigate down by compass alone. Now I just assume the weather will turn bad and pack for the worst case. Tech gives a false sense of security out there.
