[Woodworkers] A long, long time ago ..

[Greg]

True story, I had a relatively minor case of shingles in my early 30s. It
was on my back. I thought it was some really bad bug bites. By the time I
went to the doctor he confirmed what it was but it appeared to be stable/at
max.

I'm definitely still vulnerable to getting it again someday.
