I feel your pain man. It's no fun. No, really, I've been there.
My back problem was two badly herniated disks. It got to the point where I couldn't sit, stand, walk or even crawl for more than 20 seconds before the pain was intolerable.
The injections may or may not help. I had two of them. The first one lasted about 2 weeks. The second one didn't do anything at all. If the injection doesn't last that long or do anything at all, you're looking at surgery to fix it.
Unfortunately for me, I fell on ice a couple of times this winter and I'm getting pain in my lower back and legs again. That is pain I don't EVER want to go through again.

Hope it works well. As stated earlier, it may be worse for a day or two before getting better. ![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

You have my sympathy, I have compressed discs in my back, and when they play up I can hardly get up to a standing position at all, never mind Walking.
I don't want to know how much worse it is to have a prolapsed disc. 
On that subject, hows your memory doing?

Here is a little script I wrote
You might want to parse the single quotes,
Don't worry be happy
In SQL we have some trouble
When you convert from string to double
Don't worry, be happy......
Ain't got no space to run your trigger
Truncate the log or make it bigger
Don't worry, be happy
The tran log says its in a state
You may have to SHUTDOWN WITH NOWAIT
Don't worry, be happy
Ain't got no cache, ain't got no file
Ain't took no backups for a while
But don't worry be happy
( Somewhat badly adapted from the original lyrics[^] )

They have done a google doodle to celebrate international women's day.
Not that women will see it, they should be making dinner for their husbands and then attending to the other household chores.

I think you are going to be disappointed, there's only me and Argonia left to represent the ladies ... and we only do household chores for chocolate!

Having pressed play, I observe Google has mostly gone for relatively photogenic women, but kept the bar low enough and included a sufficient quota of munters[^] to avoid accusations of choosing only attractive women. Oh and that poor Malala girl to make it all respectable.
Back when I worked at accentue a large IT concern, they used to push the boat out for wimmin's [^]day. The boss used to go round and hand out roses to each lady, and give a peck on the cheek. A fuss kicked up as :
- The ladies thought it was condescending & the peck on the cheek thing was a bit creepy
- The gents pointed out it was hardly in the spirit of equality to hand out gifts to people iif they are possed of lady-parts. Some insisted for a gift of equal monetary value - a few also demanded a peck on the cheek to highlight the wrongness of the whole procedure
- errrrm...
- That's it
When the first objections were raised (principally on the grounds of the inequality of having a special event for women) the management backed themselves into a corner and couldn't stop without looking weak. So it went on for years with practically no-one supporting it.

Why would women need a special day ? Well, you may say, there are special days for about anything[^].
That is the same as the gender parity requirement in the coming council election in France : As a result, in my little town, the mayor had to kick out 5 men who had done a great job, and replace them on the list with 5 women who were barely interested in the job, just for the sake of parity. 
There are also pushing it here on the job : they want to reach a 50% female manager quote. This is sick: I promote people who are talented, not those from a specific gender.

Yes.
Agreed.
"You have been hired not because of your qualifications or experience, simply because you have a vagina. I hope you will be happy being the token women on the team, but quotas are quotas and of course all your new colleagues will be aware that old BOb should have got the job as he has worked here for years and is superbly experienced and has never missed a day of work by having children and has contributed to the company in many different ways, and I am sure they will not hesitate in reminding you of this"

Personally, I can't see any reason why a man wouldn't want all of those things. I am not saying a woman should have to but if you remove the gender bias and replaced it with "things a Stay at Home Partner should do" (ie, some men are homemakers too) then it really does describe what a home maker should do, quite well.
Though, if you are a two income family, maybe you should car pool and spend the extra car money on an au pair instead.
