I've noticed the strangest thing about men who hang out in bars a lot.
It seems they have only one of two reasons to be there.
They have no wife to go home to... or they do!
John ArmstrongDied 7 Sep 1779 (born 1709). Scottish physician and poet who wrote poetry with medical themes. His first pamphlet, published anonymously, An Essay for Abridging the Study of Physic (1735), satirized the ignorance of the apothecaries and medical men of his day. In The Oeconomy of Love (1736) he wrote instruction in verse for newly weds. His best known work, The Art of Preserving Health (1744), written in blank verse was immediately popular. From 1746, he was physician to the Hospital for Lame and Sick Soldiers, in Buckinghamshire, and during the Seven Years' War (1760-63) he was physician to the forces in Germany. After the war, he returned to London on half-pay and resumed his practice. He died from infection following a carriage accident.« |
