So my wife and I took a late nap yesterday afternoon. Got up around 7:00 pm, which of course meant I would be up pretty late. I think I actually got to sleep around 3:00 am. But anyway, when I did go back to bed, my PVCs (heart issue) were acting up pretty strongly. It’ll stop every 6 to 8 beats and then start back up with a powerful contraction. It’s uncomfortable, but it is what it is. However, after lying there feeling it for about 20 minutes, my heart stopped. Literally. My hands and feet began going numb. My vision/awareness began tunneling. I reached up to my throat to feel my carotid. Nothing. 45 seconds to a minute, maybe. Then it started beating faintly and rapidly. I lay there thinking, “so this it what it feels like?” I rolled over, hugged my wife tightly and thought about a lot of things.11 points

Meh, no big deal. Throw a pacemaker/debif in there and you're good to go. To many PVC's lumped together give you V tach, and you really don't want that. Not enough heart beats and.... Well you know what you get. Pretty easily sorted out with a pacer. Hell, I could probably do it myself for you. I have seen a lot of youtubes!6 points

The other day when spring was teasing us with a nice day, the motor cycles were out. I was passed by an old hippie riding an old school chopper. Looked like Dennis Hopper from Easy Rider. For just a minute or so I wanted to be him. chuck everything, forget how much everything hurts. Just climb on that hardtail, very uncomfortable, more or less uncontrollable, but really fuckin cool looking bike, and twist the throttle. Point it west and don't stop till I hit salt water.4 points

I just sent my defibrillator back to Pittsburgh. I told them I didn’t want to wear it anymore. I told them I didn’t want to die like my wife did. Getting weaker every day for two years. They told me if I didn’t wear the vest I could pass out and not wake up. I said that sounds like a pretty nice way to go.3 points

I figured it out with the help of Mr Google..... How to Create a Website Link on Your Home Screen Launch Safari on your iPhone or iPad. Navigate to the site that you want to create a Home screen shortcut to. Tap the Share icon (the square with an arrow pointing out of it) at the bottom of the screen. Scroll down to the list of actions and tap Add to Home Screen. whoo Hoo!3 points

I think this would be hard to quantify but from my own personal experience we profiled the bell out of the Hispanic community. Also because a vast majority of our calls were due to Hispanic offenders. Did we jam perfectly innocent Hispanics? Yeah, yeah we did. Did Hispanic citizens get tickets they may not have deserved? Yeah, yeah they did. But we also jammed white folks in Hispanic neighborhoods. Why? Because they were probably buying drugs. Did we pull over white people for questionable reasons? Yeah, yeah we did. Did affluent white people buy drugs in these neighborhoods, yeah, yeah they did. Did our efforts make a difference? Probably not... I’m 100% certain profiling occurs solely due to someone’s race but usually other factors are in place as well.3 points

The rule seems to be "Double the final r on a proper noun." Jsharr and Road Runnerr , but not roadsue or Razor's Edge. EDIT: @maddmaxx has his own variation on the rule. His name is more in line with the conventions of the OP.2 points

Just finished the morning workout. Going to install the propane tank in the new grill, leak test and burn in. Gotta go get some meat to throw on for dinner. Helping my step daughter build some raised garden boxes this afternoon. At least, I'm taking my circular saw and saw horses over and cut everything to size for her. I think she is handling the assembly. If it would just warm up a bit, I would run out of excuses for not going for a bike ride. I'm getting to be more of a wimp all the time when it comes to the cold.2 points
