As I recall, "The Tommy Knockers" was a television-adapted novel by Stephen King. Please reference it first if the reference eludes you. (Thanks )
Once upon a time I knew a guy who would be going along, very good-natured, easy to get along with and with a great, quirky sense of humor.
He enjoyed a variety of hobbies, playing w/ his children everyday-I felt priveledged and blessed to know him. Over the years (with increasing frequency throughout the year), this same individual would just, just-
stop being happy with everyday life. It was literally as though a magician had put one of those silken scarves over his face, pulled it off, and 'pouff'.
He was gone, and this dark, hopeless, angry, destructive, devisive invader
played out havoc across his life...invariably leaving him holding the bag.
Who can really determine and/or predict what lying vortex, what terminal corridor, this "Tommy Knocker" might pipe this human being down?
Where ever this guy is gagged and bound inside, the invader forbids him from taking a trip to his family doctor. With all the information we now have on the mind, the brain, the body...transcending what was merely theory in the past, well.
I sure do hope you can get out to your doctor asap-and leave what might be your 'knocker' gagged, bound...and in the dust!
Everyone questions the meaning of things from time to time-would a meteor, a tree or even a turtle?
A Chimpanzee is sure cute when it questions it's diaper tabs.
Get well soon
