“Apparently I am still indestructible”
"Lemmy, the grizzled perpetual badass who fronts metal icons Motörhead, has seen healthier days. His band was forced to cancel a few shows earlier this year when the nearly 70-year-old rocker was stricken with gastric distress and dehydration, and he now walks with a the aid of a stick because “my legs are fucked.” He also suffers from diabetes, but he’s found an interesting way to combat the illness; instead of his usual Jack Daniels and coke, Lemmy has switched to vodka and orange juice in order to stay healthy."

There's a very watchable biopic out there about Lemmy. I reviewed it here.
And there's the hilarious "men in shorts" clip from the film: link
This switch from JD&C to V&OJ is a wise health decision. Lemmy might discover tequila goes well with OJ. And if you dilute the orange juice you can have a lot more of them. Or throw in a bunch of ice with it into a blender possibly with rum instead for a very delicious frozen drink either way, tequila or rum, like a daiquiri or a rum-dinger.
Lemmy, take it from the pro, drink Wisconsin beer. There is the nutritional value of a pork chop in every beer.
And, don't take this personally, but who in the fuck are you? I've never heard of you before.

Germans call good beer flüssiges Brot: liquid bread.
Sorry "Lemmy" if you are diabetic and drinking any hard liquor you are committing suicide. Ask my brother, when you pass & chance upon him, he died at 55 with this silly idea. Allen S is more righteous, beer is far less damaging....drunk in reasonable volume....e.g., "two beers" does not equal "two six-packs." Vodka...please, just shoot yourself and save the expense of your long and painful end with hard booze.
"...if you are diabetic and drinking any hard liquor you are committing suicide."
The orange juice doesn't help either.
And Lemmy, never sit down and eat 24 pork chops one after another.
The whole metal thing passed right by without my ever being aware of its existence. I was sufficiently aware of disco to be critical of it, although, as the years have gone by, some of that shit turns out to be endurable, even pleasant to listen to.......He's not so much indestructible as delusional. He got old-old at a relatively young age. He's no Keith Richards or Ringo Starr.......Only now are rock stars passing into old age. I don't expect it to be pretty to watch.
AllenS:
I saw a clip of Lemmy once where he was talking to two guests from the music world and he says how about a drink and he goes and gets three BOTTLES of Jack Daniels and hands one each to his guests and keeps one for himself. It was hilaruious and that apparently is who Lemmy is.
AJ, you want to live the life, live the life.
So long, Lemmy.
ricpic ... ref: OJ. Correct. My brother used to keep a can of condensed frozen OJ handy for emergency low sugar bouts. It worked, but might not have been necessary if he'd not tried to calculate his insulin needs based upon careless consumption and OD on the stuff.
