Since I'm a songwriter I thought I'd express myself this way. Just got my PSA results and here's what it said....

Undetectable, sung to the tune of Unforgettable by Nat King Cole.

Undetectable - That's what you are
Undetectable - you've come so far
Like a ray of hope that shines on me
How the news of this delighted me
May everyone get the news that you are...

Undetectable in every way
And forevermore, the 'less than' stays
That's why, brother, it's incredible
That so many are undetectable
And now I'm undetectable too

That sounds like the perfect song for any day!

Hello, GeetarMan ~~~

Homage to Nat King Cole, for sure ---- that golden voice that still resonates.

I'm cheering --- reading your update.

You've got a multi-tiered treatment plan going. Hey, it's WORKING!

ZYTIGA has helped me and other fellows here.

Here's to continued treatment success for you, good sir!

UNDETECTABLE ! I cheered when I read your update, GeetarMan!

Here's to a bright NEW YEAR ~~~

GM - So what is intended song genre, rap, punk, folk, blues, Taylor Swift, Bruno Mars?

The signature stops when you get near 400 characters, spaces included, so you have get more efficient with your text if you want to add to it. I think some long term members may have grandfathered in when the restriction was not in place or easily circumvented. I have not been able to get longer signatures to work.

Genre is Lounge Lizard! I thought everyone would get the reference!

Yeah, I saw that the sig has a character limit but I'm under it. And I see the whole thing now when I post.

Excellent song and excellent result. My wife will be asking me all night why I am humming that song.

So they told me today that they will take me off Lupron and I will only be on the daily 500mg of Zytiga. I guess this is a good thing.

At least you are not lip synching...try stardust (Hoagy Carmichael's) next or refrain from...love's...id est... oh that would be Nat Kings Coles exquisite version...

@Geetarman I think most get the ref. RT? In title: not in sig: computational overload here.

You are correct! Somehow forgot to add that! RT started 12/8.

Do you know if they gave you a 6 month Lupron shot? Maybe they are keeping you on Zytiga until they figure your Lupron shot wears off.

I know for a fact it was a 3 month shot. They told me they were taking me off Lupron and just keeping me on the Zytiga. I will be on the Zytiga for the foreseeable future. They initially told me 24 months so that is my expectation.

I submit to you...geetar man a song I wrote where the title is the complete song...note that I do not read music and can not provide such...except of course in my soul...but then...sigh...that is another set of logos(words for the uninformed id est)...ok ok...here it is...of the western genre...by a cowboy tainted by a lover spurned..." If you don't leave me alone...I'll find someone who will " ...Now I do not expect a response...I will add you to a growing list of folks who refer(operative word,,,that) to me in the "no person" as if I did not exist...arguably the worst thing you can do to a human being....thankfully I do exist and always will...dead or alive...as I say along with Kierkegaard I write for just one reader...and who also said( another man of words... that one) " he that categorizes me...negates me " aloha pono mana...Logoslidat...

Firstly... If I ever do not respond to you it's because most of the time I can't figure out what in the hell it is you are trying to say. Regardless, I enjoy reading your ramblings. You are a hard man to decipher, Mr. Logo, at least to those of us with feeble minds, I suppose. ;)

Secondly... that is a great idea for a song! Unfortunately, as with most 'great ideas,' a Google search reveals that it's already been done quite poorly by some crappy band. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qa1woldogqk. But, in the world of copyright, it's a fact that 'you can't copyright a title.' Therefore I reserve my right to take a run at it.

There is a radio show host here in Minneapolis that often says... 'all my million dollar ideas are already taken.'

Love the song, and hoping for the same results myself.
Happy New Year

"If You Don't Leave Me Alone (I'll Find Someone Else Who Will)." Hilarious!

In the spirit of generosity of spirit...Einsteins theory of relativity was discovered about the same time by another scientist...who for some reason deferred the discovery to him...I can't remember His name or why he did such...I would google it but I have been upended too many times to trust it ( ah...what ??) also you can't expect me to do every thing...I'm up to my arse in alligators here...ps It was phillip lenard and he was not generous of spirit but a member of the master race...he hated him more when he won the Nobel for physics....

Well... 'Cheap Radio' ain't winning any Grammys for their version of your song. ;)
