My father actually used some electronic machine to fight pain in his back and, as far as I remember, he mentioned he had rheumatitis, but he never talks about it now, so I guess he doesn't feel pain in his back anymore, but I'll call him today and ask him about it.
    Not only have you heard of it, but you're dad may have suffered from it
    OK, Oleg, you got me there, I walked right into that one.

    Belief in god helps only a person's psychological state. Belief in a placebo has an equivalent effect as belief in god. In controlled studies, placebos have been shown to have positive effects, but in no situation does it even compare to actual verifiable medical treatments.

    Okay, guys, I confused radiculitis with rheumatoid. I just spoke to my father on the phone and he told me that many years ago he had radiculitis, but he never had rheumatoid.

    Ha, now I recommend starting a thread called: "Ask Oleg's father". It'll be intended for questions we want Oleg to pose to his father when he phones him.

    This will be like that one time where Martin Sheen guest starred on Two and a Half Men.

    EDIT: I'm assuming half a person will get the joke, so if nobody gets it, I'd be willing to explain it.

    It can't be any better than Martin Sheen's cameo in Hot Shots

    I drew a parallel to Oleg.
