Today [8] part 3


Hopalong X

Bill

Testing the new laser!

Just a minor beam diffusion problem.
I'm sure they will have it working properly by the 16th.


A Guy

Yeah, he had a video of the old method...

A Guy,
I suppose you haven't noticed your 3rd medal with you bad vision in the one eye...
Donna and I both just had our eye's checked.
Through Kaiser Donna's laser surgery would cost $1900 for both eyes.
For me that charge would be free as long as I could get someone to take me to the Salvation Army for a white cane.
Best of luck Bill!

Hopalong X

This went perfect until the third try.

That is Bill/A Guys laser treatment being tested.

Just make sure your not third in line for treatment.

It might be Kim Jong's new BBQ method!

May do the mono vision thing (one eye for close up, one for far away). Anyway, never worn glasses, but would need to soon, especially for whenever have to take next driving test. They've just emailed me a new one for the last 12 years, good driving record don't ya know

Next thur. they do a "trial frame" exam, to see what's best choice for me, and then 9/16 I get zapped

I was told I was a good candidate for lasik surgery so I decided to give it a try. I reconsidered when I saw the patient in front of me come out of the procedure room.

Hi guys, I know I haven't been around for a while but currently had a lot on, Hannah's been off on her summer holidays for the past 6 weeks, I went away and fell ill on day two of my hols with food poisoning from rice and had to abandon the hol on day 5 as was getting gradually worse, now to top it off I've pulled my back out so currently look lobsided! LOL! You've gotta laugh although it hurts to do so. hope you are all well and hope to frequent the site more often once she returns to school. If anybody has any remedies on putting my back back in place then please share I'm very much open to options right now.

Hello there, Forum!

Today i'm a little nervous, I have a job interview in exactly 55min. Yesterday I sent my resume to an electronics store and today i got a call from Human Resources.

I'm opting for a Sales Consultant job (that's what the lady in human resources told me)

Wish me luck. *fingers crossed*

Cheers

Baroness von Shush

Other than a chiropractor (quack), you might see if some heating pads and John rubbing it for you may help.

I love the comment by Spoony about his gorgeous girlfriend.


"Love love love this! Took me a little while to get used to the strong smell but now I adore it, it's a lovely spicy smell. I suffer a lot with my neck and shoulders but luckily have an awesome (and gorgeous) girlfriend who gives me a lot of massages. The whole experience of this massage bar is wonderful, it smells great and really helps to warm and relax tense muscles. I have been known to nod off while receiving a massage! When I open the drawer it is kept in just the smell of it makes me instantly relax. Really good value for money as well because it lasts FOREVER!"

Glad to see you back Baroness, sorry to hear about the illness and that it spoilt your holiday as for the back, well, many years ago when I put my back out my GP just did a lot of pulling and twisting of my joints, then the silly man told me to rest for a couple of weeks. I mean how are you supposed to rest when you have a baby and toddler to look after

I know when I was having bad muscle spasms in my back a couple of years ago the chiropractor sorted that out very quickly and easily, well it was him that told me he thought I had Osteoporosis which started the ball rolling getting it diagnosed and the treatment started.

I hope yours isn't the start of anything serious so you try and get it sorted out before it gets worse, and it's nice to have you back with us.

[Droopy] Hello, all you happy people [/Droopy]

Well, yesterday was my interview... it extended for almost an hour and a half... even though i'm the most indicated one for the job and i was offered almost 1000$ a month for it (here, minimum wage is 360$/month, because of the change rates), their work schedules don't match with mine (because i'm still in college), of course, the manager told me that he was going to see what can be done to fit me in...

I won't sacrifice my education for 1000$ per month, at least not now...

Well, i have to see if i can find a part-time job instead of a full time

Baroness, long time no see hope you get well soon about the back issues.

Bill! didn't notice the 3rd badge! 'grats, Mate!

To all of you, enjoy your weekend

marsmimar

Punkster, you should be proud of yourself. Obviously others recognize your talents.

I once had a potential employer offer me $1000 to stay away and never fill out another application.

Well after almost 3 months of flooding around here the river has dropped over 6 foot enough where the water is off our levees which is a good feeling were going to start bringing our valuables home next week.

Here is what the Interstate Highway north of our city looks like after three months of Rushing water on it. They say it may take two years to repair it.

Here is what some of the farm fields look like those of you who are not familiar with center pivot irrigation those are at least 8 to 10 foot tall some may never farm again. That in the sand from the river.

No not at all, but some that live with in 1/2 mile of the levees have been pumping water out of their basements for 2 1/2 months and will be pumping for maybe another 2 months our flood stage is 29 feet we will get there in about two more weeks but it needs to drop another 4 feet for these people's basements and the groundwater to dry up a little.

That is Severe, will take a lot to clean it up.

Glad to hear your house is ok.

Its finally raining today, it's from the Gulf Storm...as it heads off to the northeast..
sure hope Georgia gets some of the nice easy rain.. they too need a soaking.

Hopalong X

It rained a bit here early this morning. Maybe 0.15 in.
The wind is blowing dust again already.

The ground looks like it never rained a drop.

marsmimar

Someone remind me ... what's rain?

marsmimar

It comes in little drops of water out of the sky and sometimes it comes down in sheets of water from big, black clouds. Sometimes, it even rains all day.

When was the last time you had any rain and more's to the point, how do you cope with these long, dry periods you've obviously been having?

Thanks for that reminder, Andrew. I kinda thought it was something like that.

There's a fairly wide disparity on when we've received the last rainfall in San Antonio. The official records are compiled at the San Antonio Int'l Airport. But I don't know a single person who actually lives there so individual neighborhoods have slightly different data. My specific neighborhood has received less than 3 inches of rain so far in 2011 as recorded by a local and official NOAA monitoring station. The Airport has recorded about twice that. Normal rainfall for the first 8 months of any given year averages about 25 inches with a yearly average of about 32 inches. I think the last rain I actually witnessed was in early June when we had a brief thunderstorm in late afternoon. It dumped about .03 inches. A real frog drowner. (Sarcasm intentional.)

I'm coping by conserving local water and using imported water. In other words, I'm drinking more Carling Black Label and Guinness Extra Stout.

Why thank you, Andrew! I had the good fortune to spend some time at RAF Lakenheath and RAF Mildenhall back in the '70s and some local chaps tried to educate and introduce this Yank barbarian (their words!) to some of the finer things in life. I'll certainly give Magners a go. Looks quite refreshing.

LADYPINKtomato1

Yank barbarian? How rude, but probably not too far from the truth!

I know Lakenheath & Mildenhall well, particularly from Air Show days.

Ten years ago today I woke and turned the TV on. The today show out of NYC was on a breaking new story of a plane crashing in to the World Trade Center north tower.. The pictures were frightening. Commentators were mulling over how this could have happened. Several minutes later their live picture showed a second plane crashing into the other WTC Tower. My thoughts said, "we are under attack".
Then a report of an "explosion" at the Pentagon. Then a plane missing over Pennsylvania. I had this day off work so I watched in horror as the truth behind all these events unfolded.
A reporter remarked that smoke had obscured the view of one tower. He didn't know at the time WTC2, the south tower, had collapsed. United flight 93 was reported down in PA. The Pentagon explosion was revealed to be yet another plane crashing.
Nineteen terrorists from theIslamist militant groupal-Qaedahijacked four passenger jets killing 2977 people on the ground and on the four aircraft.

It does not seem ten years have passed.

I was asleep until 12:30PM that day, having been out drinking the night before. Someone called my cell phone and woke me up and asked what I thought of what was happening, and I had no idea....quite a shock going downstairs and having my coffee while watching that awful footage.

Hopalong X

My sister called long distance. She asked me if I was watching TV, no I said.
"Turn on the TV I'll call you back later."

One tower was billowing smoke and everyone thought accident but how could that be?
Within five minutes the second plane hit and we all knew then......

I went in less than ten minutes a normal boring day in my life, to how tragic, to we are under attack!

ten years ago today ,i was ill . i had had a psychotic episode ( my first) and at that time my belief systems were all over the place ,i was a direct descendent of jesus and that i had special powers, i thought that i lived in a world where people communicated by telepathy ( those that had been switched on that is)
i also thought that because of my special godlike powers that every time i lost my temper that a major disaster would occur and that as i was the latest to be switched on that all the news events were cover stories about me.
needless to say that when the news broke about the towers here in the UK i believed it was my fault and that i was responsible.
that was some burden to carry for a period of a week or so.
Eventually the medication started to work (thankfully!) and my thought patterns regained some sanity.
Ten years on i had a repeat psychotic episode strangely enough with the same belief patterns and this time it was the japan earthquake and tsunami, again the meds kicked in and bent my head back into shape .
9/11 will always have a particular memory for me not just because it reminds me that i was ill at the time ,but i had such a profound feeling of the loss
my sincerest condolences to everyone who holds a connection to that time in life , hopefully one day terrorism and war will be a thing of the past,and that my children witness it.

I was home sick that day, and up feeling ick. At first there was speculation a small plane had crashed into the tower, like the military plane that hit the Empire State building. But then the 2nd jet screamed in to the second tower, and it hit everyone...this was intentional. I called my parents and told them turn on CNN. It was a horrific experience, and quite surreal. A Guy

The Howling Wolves

The Sunday before we were on our first cruise to Alaska.
I am an early riser so I went up and had breakfast and came back to the room and turn on the television.
Thought I was watching a new movie as I couldn't believe that a small plane could do that much damage. Then the 2nd plane came in and I shook my wife so she could confirm what I was seeing. Could not believe what happened nor will I forget.

LADYPINKtomato1

Those planes and what they did will forever be etched in my mind.. this mornig while watching some of it before going to church.. ( I missed Sunday School watching some of it ).. had to turn it off , make myself get ready for church services.. met my gf for lunch.

Thorsen

Thanks for the congrats to all. Hope all is well for everyone today. I have reflected on the anniversary a bit today. Given thanks to the men and women who serve or served and hope for more peaceful times to come.

In the interest of "quality control" you might suggest to her that you have to make sure all of the features are fully operational. And that will require a very prolonged time to test drive it.

Today I was at hospital,and the doctor schedules me operation for my eye lid on Wednesday,21st.

Punkster

Today, well... 5mins ago, i got a call from the electronics store that wanted me for the Sales Consultant job, they want to see me today @ 4:30pm

The manager told me to go there today and that they have an offer for me. They know my schedule in college, so i guess it's not going to interfere!

Boshko, is something wrong with your eye? hope everything goes just fine!

StalkeR

Yes,I have "barley" on my left eye. Exaclly I have 3 of them,and it must be operated.

The Howling Wolves

Are the "barley's" caused from checking out all the girls at school or from wood splinters from looking
through peep holes? hehehehe
I never got them as I wear glasses...

Punkster

OHHH! i had one of those like 12 years ago.

The doctor removed it in 20mins or less, can't remember, i was barely 10yrs old at that time. It's an ambulatory operation, so i guess you have nothing to worry about!

Tell the doctor to assign you a hot nurse at least you'll distract your other eye

Yes,I'm not worried about that. And for "that",I'll have it on my mind.

Sometimes the eye lash gets in grown or the eye lash folicle gets plugged.

I get one occasionally but they heal in a week or so.

Sometimes they just won't heal properly.

Good luck it shouldn't be a big deal.
Make sure to get your lollipop when they are done.

Liver is enlarged. All the liver panel blood tests check good.

So it is inflammed but functioning properly.

Might be left over from pneumonia and the antibiotics triggered it.

Considering the strain my liver is on from the other 10 medicines I take everyday.

Hemoglobin is maintaining so far this week. Recheck tomorrow morning.

Also the blood tests they did last Friday came back.
Almost all RBC's destroyed are smashed so it is my mechanical mitral valve.

The liver just adds to the problem or is a side effect on the RBC count.

Changing the mitral valve to a pig valve would help the RBC count to go normal if I survived the surgery.

Cardio docs still say that is a REALLY bad idea. Three different ones now.

They may have a point.

Punkster

Right now i'm laughing telling this..

But the day of the surgery.. i was extremely ashamed because i had a 23-ish years old, REALLY HOT nurse, touching, grabbing and cleaning the area being operated... You mess with a man's "tool" and you'll leave him broken...

My self esteem went all the way down to zero when the surgery ended!

And the worst thing is that the nurse was talking to me, messing around, joking.. (i could tell that she wanted me to feel uncomfortable xD)

Hopalong X

Punkster

I figured by now you would get a laugh about it.

Hopalong X

Doctor ordered another liver panel to go with CBC and Iron tomorrow.

If liver panel looks good and CBC is decent keep an eye on it and see if hemoglobin stays up.

A blood specialist isn't going to help.
I'm making more than enough RBC's for a normal person just not enough to out pace the valve destroying them.

Catch-22

The Howling Wolves

Mike,
Are some of those 10(+ or -) meds counter-productive with the valve/transfusions?
I am sure you are not the only person experiencing this problem so you might want to check websites for mitral valve forums where you can read what others are experiencing.
I do that for Donna and the type of infusion she is on.

Just a thought Mike! Just a thought.

Hopalong X

Under blood damage.> Artificial heart valve - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Quote:
Mechanical heart valves can also cause hemolytic anemia with hemolysis of the red blood cells as they pass through the valve.
Hemolytic anemia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The RBC's being destroyed has been occuring since the first valve installed in 1988.
I made more than enough RBC's to replace the destroyed ones.

As I have gotten older as everyone does production has decreased but still more than a normal person without a mechanical valve needs....

...but not enough for someone with a mechanical valve.

Tomorrow 9/16 I go under the laser myself. Having LASIK eye surgery, More precisely Bladeless Custom Wavefront LASIK. Doing only the left eye as the right is almost 20/20. Left eye been slacking for years, so going to make it do 1/2 the work from now on. Not worried so much as anxious, as I know exactly what the procedure entails. May not be on at all tomorrow, even though my right eye will be unchanged. Imagine, me not posting for a whole day

We've got major construction work going on opposite the Library at the moment, and I've just seen one of the workmen standing in one of the dumpers with a pneumatic drill trying to break up concrete/cement that has set solid in it. You should be able to see this in the image below:

Thorsen

So did you get the job Punkster?

Hope all goes well with the rest of you guys for the surgeries and Lasik and all

Murphy stuck again for me today. The trailer hitch I was gonna have put on our minivan finally came in.... and it was the wrong part. So I wont have that for our move this weekend. We will be driving up with the van and getting a friend to travel later this month with all the rest of our stuff.....

On Monday or Tuesday I should be posting from Boston (if I'm not to busy to hop on here)

Thorsen

Also as for the nurse part:

Good luck. I hear Boston drivers are known as the most courteous, careful drivers anywhere

Thorsen! good luck in boston, and cheers for getting the job. It deserves a toast

I need to go there today to polish some details about the job. I'm going to get paid more than minimum wage for only 24 hours/week, i'll be working 4 hours a day monday to saturday.

Yesterday's interview lasted 2:30 hours. We talk about their problems, how are they going to handle them, what they want me to do for them, some research and investigations, possible projects, it's a full list... Basically, they need me there. They're going to open a Marketing Department (because they don't have one) and i'll be the Marketing Manager. I got to choose my schedule, i can choose how i want to work, and my direct boss is CEO of the store.

So i guess i'll go there today, give him my final thoughts and if everything works out fine, i'll start on monday!

Nice you had a nice outing with your wife Actually, I was typing with one eye...went back to typing with my fingers I was typing with one eye closed however, as they suggest keeping it closed as much as possible. I slept most of the day off and on as it's easier to keep both eyes closed. I'm wearing a plastic shield, to prevent accidentally hitting the eye. But even through the shield, and the still healing eye, it's obvious how improved my sight is in that eye. Tomorrow I go back for the first after checkup, and by tomorrow night, I should have a good diea exactly how my sight will be. A worthwhile expense no doubt. Take care, A Guy

top tip for chopping wood ,
put three to four logs inside an old tyre then chop , the split logs stay within the tyre and you dont have to go round picking up the logs as they ping all over the place, you can raise the tyre up on something to save bending also .

Just .... five minutes ago, we experienced a severe earthquake . Generally we are not in earthquake prone region, but faced a few mild shakes before. This one is really exceptional. For the first time, I felt like I am drunk ... and just then realized that everything is shaking and rocking .

Everybody got out of their house .... but my mother didn't understand what happened why they are getting out like crazy .

Telephone network damaged at the same time .... cannot contact the near ones .... if they are safe, as I am .

Sorry to hear that. Keep safe Archie.

Stay safe, Archie. If the first was a 6.8 there could be more after shocks almost as strong.

Thanks, my beloved friends ! As per TV news, Telephone Service is totally damaged, electricity service is also damaged, but it is under control. No big news of mortality till now, thank god !!

And now fearing the after shock .

After that shake, it started raining devastatingly . What is happening ?

A superstitious statement : in the newspaper of 15th Sep, a group of astrologers forecasted that 18th is going to be an unholy day . Something evil will happen that day . We didn't pay any heed to them .... it is not to pay at all, but it happened

Archie, i just read the Tweet announcing the 6.8 earthquake in India, hopefully everything is fine... stay safe and don't worry about the lines, it always happens when an earthquake occurs, it's a matter of time before the lines go back up...

Stay safe, mate.

Arc

Thanks , my dear friends
Lines are back, everybody is OK, no harm in my area at least (other than cracks in a few old structures). But it spread the panic . We are not habituated with such stuff !!

Punkster

Yeah i know what you mean, last year we had a 6.4 earthquake with the epicentre "near" my house (probably 100km), i live in a 5th floor and i got scared as f....

I hadn't felt an earthquake in probably, 17 years. I got so scared i went down the stairs and realize downstairs that i went down wearing only Boxers

Dinesh

Here's the news about the earthquake, if anyone wants to read: Earthquake in Sikkim: 9 dead, strong tremors in North and East India

Arc, happy to know you and your family is fine.

Almost the same story It was a shorts for me .... and saw many people wearing peculiar dresses !!

Frankly speaking, nobody cared about nobody's dressings . Everybody was so scared.

Edit : Thanks a lot Dinesh Sikkim is my favorite place to pass a few idle days . It feels too bad for the Sikkimese people .

Everybody got out of their house .... but my mother didn't understand what happened why they are getting out like crazy .

Telephone network damaged at the same time .... cannot contact the near ones .... if they are safe, as I am .
Geez, hope you're relatives and friends are alright.

Been sick for the past few days which is why I've been unable to post much. I have either a bad case of gastro or food poisoning.

Lower right quad stomach pain?
If blood test come back with high white count could be appendicitis.

I also had a cold and felt like poo for a couple days, and I didn't want to mess with the ailing computer until I had a clear head.

Hi Randy,

Have you tried installing a new driver?
GEFORCE 280.26 DRIVER

Navigated from NVIDIA Driver Downloads

Uninstall the old driver first, then install the new one.

If that doesn't help, then re-seat the graphics card. Clean if needed, check the fan.

Check with another graphics card if you have or can borrow one.

Status report.....
OK, got the new driver installed just fine, and it made no difference. Pulled the case out, and the card is securely in place , and the fan is spinning freely. I've never removed a graphics card, and this is is securely enough in position that I did not try to remove it.

So, it looks like I will be without it for a while....in a week or so my father will be visiting my aunt and uncle, and bringing my sister's computer to my uncle, and now it appears he'll be bringing my computer too. I don't know if he'd be able to get both done in the couple of days that my dad will be there, so I guess this little computer will be my primary unit for a while.
Good thing I have it though....or I'd be using the ancient XP dinosaur that makes this netbook look awesome.

There was some dust, but not as much as I thought there might have been. If I have some free time this week, I'll bring the tower downstairs where I have more room to look at it and potentially clean it better, but at this point I've kind of resigned myself to the inevitability of sending it out.

Hello ladies and gentlemen.

I can sure say that I miss all of you a lot.

So what's going on these days, well, I just purchased the pre-buy of Star Wars: The Old Republic- which is the first fully voice acted MMORPG, quite awesome. In the near future I'll get a new build of my computer, a quite good one.

What's up with you guys?

Good News

Received a letter in the mail this morning regarding a job interview I attended last week offering me the head chefs job at a Gastro pub not to far from where I live. What's extra special is it's an increase in salary from the job I was made redundant from a month ago and less hours so I will still have lots of time to spend with the kids, which I have enjoyed immensely since been out of work.
Couldn't have come at a better time.
Made up

Would like to thank all those who offered a chin up when I was made redundant which helped spur me on to getting myself back out there.

The drinks are on me

What's extra special is it's an increase in salary from the job I was made redundant from a month ago and less hours so I will still have lots of time to spend with the kids, which I have enjoyed immensely since been out of work.
Couldn't have come at a better time.
Made up

Would like to thank all those who offered a chin up when I was made redundant which helped spur me on to getting myself back out there.

The drinks are on me

That is really great news, more money and less hours more time with the family could not get much better!

It's a bit unusual even for Typhoon season, A big strong typhoon (Hurricane) on Tuesday and a Super Typhoon today, 150 MPH winds, it's center is a couple hundred miles north, but were getting strong winds and rain now.

Just got cleaned up after Tuesdays storm, lot's of down trees and power outages, etc.
Here we go again....

Today, well... Tomorrow, i'll start a new rig sadly, since i don't have a lot of money to spend, i have to buy some parts tomorrow and then gather some money to buy the other parts. This will be the build:

- Core i3-2100 or Core i5-2300
- Corsair A70
- ASUS P8H61-M LE or Gigabyte GA-H61M-S2V-B3
- Corsair Vengeance DDR3-1600 (2 x 4GB)
- Thermaltake V3
- Thermaltake Thunderblade 120mm Fans
- Cooler Master eXtreme Power Plus 500w

For the HDDs/ODD and GFX i'll use my current ones, i'll probably buy a Crucial M4 SSD (64GB) over time, but i know i'll be capped at SATA II speeds. no big deal there.

Tomorrow i'll only buy the Case/PSU and probably 2 or 3 Fans, still don't know how many fans i'll use in this rig

Thanks to the EU prohibiting the good old light bulbs, a simple thing like purchasing a 60W light bulb has become a big nuisance.
Fortunately I managed to find a suitable light bulb this morning - there were hardly any remaining. They're going like hot buns.

If you dont have any in your planet.

If you never seen before and you dont know what they are.

They are Snails,escargot for the friends from France

Feed them with flour and lettuce,let them sh@t clean for 3-5 days,wash them,then barbecue.

And we eat them in oil-salt-vinegar sauce.

Today, while I was checking out my e-mails at uni, I was rather creeped out to see a guy who had kind of stalked me last term sitting just a computer or two away from me. I pretended that he was air and left the room with a bunch of other people, and I was fortunately not followed this time. Last time was different, because the corridor and stairs were completely empty, and he'd stop when I stopped, resume walking when I resumed my pace, and just hang around near me and stare at me...I would have liked throwing an escargot at him ;-) It was really creepy.

Well,thank goodness you weren't born, for instance, during the 17th century ;-) The French noblemen used to wear heels.

High heels shoes are helpful for short people,increase the "spirit".

Athene,
I did try them on but each time I took a step the heel fell out of place.
Should be modified with a sharper nail puncturing the heel.

That sounds extremely painful, Dennis! But maybe Panais (since those are his heels) can give you a foot rub with some pistachio foot cream!

Today, shod with the same high heels as yesterday, I discovered that my footwear is very good for accompanying the beat of a particularly rhythmic song - tap tap tap tap tap tap. Fortunately, everyone else in the computer room was wearing headphones and could not hear the clacking from my corner :-)

Lol!!! What are high heels for me are flat shoes for other people...seriously :-) The highest heel I'm willing to wear is 7.5 centimetres*. Anything above that is just asking for a twisted ankle, especially if you have to walk across cobbles and run for the bus nearly every day ;-D

Came across the same lizard in the computer room today...another girl and I tried to catch the little critter, but it was too fast. It is currently hiding between the floor and the wall, with only the tip of its head poking out. I am now equipped with a big plastic cup (borrowed from the students' bar just around the corner) in case it races around the room again - the poor thing must be very hungry (shut up in the room for two days and one night), and someone might stamp on it :-(

Also is good think to have a lizard or geko around.

No mosquitoes or flies.

Thanks giuys,I get it to a mechanic sooner as I can,so I'll see what would be..

Hubby has just had his car go through it's MOT this week, he had a couple of new tyres on the front last month so they were OK but this year the break pipes had to be changed and a suspension socket put back in place.

He's still waiting for a replacement fitting from the manufacturers so that the repair the AA man did on the gear lever can be fixed properly, but at least that's not part of the test so didn't matter, it's held up by wire and plastic ties at present.

The Stranger


A few years after I was born, my Dad met a stranger who was new to our small town. From the beginning, Dad was fascinated with this enchanting newcomer and soon invited him to live with our family. The stranger was quickly accepted and was around from then on.


As I grew up, I never questioned his place in my family. In my young mind, he had a special niche. My parents were complementary instructors: Mom taught me good from evil, and Dad taught me to obey.

But the stranger... he was our storyteller. He would keep us
spellbound for hours on end with adventures, mysteries and comedies.

If I wanted to know anything about politics, history or science, he always knew the answers
about the past, understood the present and even seemed able to predict the future! He took my family to the first major league ball game. He made me laugh, and he made me cry. The stranger never stopped talking, but Dad didn't seem to mind.


Sometimes, Mom would get up quietly while the rest of us were shushing each other to listen to what he had to say, and she would go to the kitchen for peace and quiet. (I wonder now, if she ever prayed for the stranger to leave.)


Dad ruled our household with certain moral convictions, but the stranger never felt obligated to
honor them. Profanity, for example, was not allowed in our home - not from us, our friends or
any visitors. Our long time visitor, however, got away with four-letter words that burned my ears and made my dad squirm and my mother blush.

My Dad didn't permit the liberal use of alcohol but the stranger encouraged us to try it on a regular basis. He made cigarettes look cool, cigars manly, and pipes distinguished. He talked freely (much
too freely!) about sex. His comments were sometimes blatant, sometimes suggestive, and generally embarrassing..


I now know that my early concepts about relationships were influenced strongly by the stranger. Time after time, he opposed the values of my parents, yet he was seldom rebuked... And NEVER asked to leave.


More than fifty years have passed since the stranger moved in with our family. He has blended right in and is not nearly as fascinating as he was at first. Still, if you could walk into my parents' den today, you would still find him sitting over in his corner, waiting for someone to listen to him talk and watch him draw his pictures.


His name?....


We just call him 'TV.'
(Note: This should be required reading for every household!)
He has a wife now....we call her 'Computer.'
Their first child is "Cell Phone".
Second child "I Pod "

Bongo

As you all know.. October is Breast Cancer awareness month..

" Mammogram Court " article .



While conducting some business at the Court House, I overheard a lady, who had been arrested for assaulting a Mammogram Technician, say, "Your Honor, I�m guilty but . . . there were extenuating circumstances."

The female judge said, sarcastically, "I'd certainly like to hear those extenuating circumstances. I did, too, so, I listened as the lady told her story.

"Your Honor, I had a mammogram appointment, which I actually kept. I was met by this perky little clipboard carrier smiling from ear to ear and she tilted her head to one side and crooned, "Hi! I'm Belinda! All I need you to do is step into this room right here, strip to the waist, then slip on this gown. Everything clear?"

I'm thinking, "Belinda, try decaf. This ain't rocket science." Belinda then skipped away to prepare the chamber of horrors.

With the right side finished, Belinda flipped me (literally) to the left and said, "Hmmmmm. Can you stand on your tippy toes and lean in a tad so we can get everything?" Fine, I answered.

I was freezing, bruised, and out of air, so why not use the remaining circulation in my legs and neck to finish me off? My body was in a holding pattern that defied gravity (with my other breast wedged between those two 4 inch pieces of square glass) when I heard and felt a zap!

Complete darkness, the power was off!

Belinda said, "Uh-oh, maintenance is working, bet they hit a snag" Then she headed for the door.

"Excuse me! You're not leaving me in this vise alone are you?" I shouted.

Belinda kept going and said, "Oh, you fussy puppy. . . the door's wide open so you'll have the emergency hall lights. I'll be right back."

Before I could shout NOOOO! She disappeared. And that's exactly how Bubba and Earl, "maintenance men Extraordinaire" found me . . half-naked with part of me dangling from the Jaws of Life and the other part smashed between glass.

After exchanging a polite Hi, how's it going type greeting, Bubba (or possibly Earl) asked, to my utter disbelief, if I knew the power was off.

Trying to disguise my hysteria, I replied with as much calmness as possible, "Uh, yes, I did but thanks anyway."

"Ok, you take care now," Bubba replied and waved good-bye as though I'd been standing in the line at the grocery store.

Two hours later, Belinda breezes in wearing a sheepish grin. Making no attempt to suppress her amusement, she said, "Oh I am sooo sorry! The power came back on and I totally forgot about you! And silly me, I went to lunch. Are we upset?"

And that, Your Honor, is exactly how her head ended up between the clamps . . "

The judge could hardly contain her laughter as she said "Case Dismissed!".

Came across a large ladybug in dire straits, lying on its back with twitching legs and one wing sticking out of its wing-case. After I carefully flipped it back onto its stomach, it proceeded to wander around the sill in a rather drunken manner, stopping every now and then to retract its trapped wing - without success. My hopes concerning its survival were rather low.
Fifteen minutes later, when I returned to my room, I found it sitting happily on the wall, with that wing finally fully retracted. Right on cue, it spread open its wing-cases and zoomed out of the window to the neighbour's tree. A determined little creature!

You're quite the animal savior, aren't you?

noobvious

First wall lizards, then ladybugs...I wonder what will be next ;-)) I don't like to see the little critters suffer or experience discomfort, and helping them is usually such a straightforward matter. Our neighbour, by the way, is sure he saw a fox recently. Lots of animals are losing their habitat thanks to the building lobby, and they're wandering into human settlements. I've noticed that if a new house sprouts up, many birds will lose their lives flying against the glass - it can take a good year or two until they have adjusted their geography.

I am sorry to say that the rubbish bins at uni are not changed/cleaned out regularly. They do not even have a bin liner. The result: CLOUDS of drosophila flies sitting in the bins and feasting on the garbage. Nudge a bin with your foot, and a whole swarm of flies rises in protest. Today, I was forced to eat my lunch in another room after five or six flies kept circling my sandwich...

That is why I don't like to sit outdoors and eat in the summer....the bugs!

Guest

At least the bugs occur naturally in outdoor surroundings ;-D But indoors, they're breeding and breeding clandestinely in the garbage bins. The uni microwave, too, is filthy, coated with crumbs and a kind of crust which I dare not describe further...
And the uni computers have not been updated for six months, I think. The Firefox version installed on them is 3.6, for example...Sigh.

I work at a small restaurant, and you'd be amazed at what a microwave can look like even in one day's time.....we have to clean them out twice a day. So I can imagine what that one might look like.

Arc

Well, it's admittedly easier to keep fit if you've got a bike...especially when you've got to cycle uphill, then you've got to get those pedals going :-D The Swiss adore bikes ;-)) They are even designed in such a manner that people have enough place to fasten baskets to the carrier :-D
Oh...and when there's a big construction site blocking the whole road, you can often slink past on your bike while cars have to give a turn and search for another route...
And a bike is considered more environmental-friendly ;-)

Keep fit???? sorry you've lost me there.

It may be more environmentally friendly but no fun when trying to run tree huggers overs.
