No risk at all; you have no base to blame flu shots for that.

You are absolutely correct - I don't believe either the internal medicine specialist who told her that, nor either of the neurologist who told her that either. All three told her to NEVER get the flu shot again. But what do they know - I'm sure your take on it is far more educated than theirs. 
I, for one, like Roman Numerals.

Both my kids have the flu really bad. Doctor says it is real bad this year in the U.S. Kids out of school for the rest of the week.
Hoping I don't get it...

She mentioned to me that I sometimes snore at night, so I asked the doctor about it. He told me that if I lost some weight, my tongue would shrink and that would stop the snoring. I should lose some weight?  So I asked him: "What's the matter. Can't you operate?" All I got was a strange look.

That's along the lines of the first thing that also popped into my mind.

Actually, it's more likely your head's too small.
Furthermore, if you lose weight, the loss of fat will surely affect your head more than the rest of you . . .

Yes, and my brain is already very tiny!

Tongue, Snoring I was under the impression that due to air flow?
|
|
|
|
|
Recent study was published showing that a fat tongue obstructs the air way more, so the best way to improve air flow is to lose the tongue fat. There are some more details but that's the short version of it.
|
|
|
|
|
I suppose it's soft tissue (mostly muscle?) so it could be affected by fat cells, never really thought about it...
|
|

|

It should be but apparently there can be a lot of marbling in there. Maybe people who talk or use their tongue more snore less.

just buy some nose plugs ... then jam them in the wives ears. (better dampening than ear plugs)
after many otherwise intelligent sounding suggestions that achieved nothing the nice folks at Technet said the only solution was to low level format my hard disk then reinstall my signature. Sadly, this still didn't fix the issue!

Many years ago, my wife was complaining about my snoring.
Then the little girl protested: Your snoring is much louder, mom!
Are you surprised when I tell that I loved that girl?

Weight loss be damned, if what he's saying is correct, then it sounds like you only need some exercise that focuses on the tongue. Is there such a thing? No, wait, don't answer that, this is a kid sister-friendly forum...

I talk in my sleep and answer her questions. There's a movement-activated lamp on the hallway to prevent me from walking in my sleep. I have this memory of being in the street in my small-clothes shouting at the neighbours and even though they keep telling me it didn't happen, the memory is there.
Simply snoring loudly would be fine by me

Sounds a little scary. Not sure I would want to do that!

Not a qustion of wanting; are you sure you don't talk in your sleep? How would you know?
There's a sleep-noise recorder for Android.

I normally keep to myself and say very little. I only hope that my personality does not change much in my sleep!

I just get visual studio installed and then they want me to update. The updates take far too long, IMO.
I get frustrated because I can't code while it's updating but the only time i'm notified of updates is when I'm ready to sit down and code! otherwise i wouldn't open VS in the first place.
Since I'm driving my source repos from GitHub anyway I think I have a mid to long term fix.
This year I should be getting a new dev machine with at least 32GB of RAM. That way I should be able to run multiple VMs.
I can install on one VM while coding on the other and swap out of the image when its done.
It's silly that I'd have to do it this way, but at least it's a way forward.
Why visual studio? why?
