  1. If I had two Yetis, I wouldn’t need the embryos in order to drive in the HOV lanes. Although we’d be unlike to be anywhere near Alabama at that point.
  2. And drive in the HOV lane in Alabama now?
  3. Because they’d go splat so nicely when thrown off a rooftop. And he’s have treats left over to feed the stupid pet trick animals. And the guy under the bleachers.
  4. Where are you, Sarasota or further north?
  5. It’s such a crap shoot at the airport anymore that we also try to schedule to arrive at the airport 2 hours ahead of our flights for domestic trips. Although I usually find myself gate side for 1:45. Have a good vacation. I hear Florida is warmer than Buffalo at this time of year.
  6. I think hockey is exciting just as it is.
  7. Do you have a source you can reference? The Wiki reference to the topic is poorly written and confusing. Gray was the more senior of the two, he was already a physician at the start of the project while Carter was not yet, and by all accounts I have read Gray was the originator of the book idea. The Wiki post is confusing, and seemingly contradictory. Carter was away in India at this point, so I assume the intention of the entry is to say that Gray took advantage of his absence to minimize his partner’s title credits? “The first version of Gray's Anatomy, published by Parker, presented Gray and Carter in equal-sized characters names, followed by a caption on a smaller scale with each's titles. Gray was strongly opposed, believing that it took advantage of the absence of his colleague to claim that the name of his illustrator was written in smaller letters with no titles that Carter had obtained.”
  8. Gotcha. I thought “blocked” meant something else! I guess it meant a nerve block!
  9. Is the Tylenol enough pain relief to allow you to sleep? If not, I’d take miralax and any constipation meds your doctor prescribed, then use the oxy if you need it for pain. But if Tylenol is enough, great!
  10. I don’t give panhandlers money. I’ll give them food. I acknowledge that my giving them food will free them up to buy drugs and/or alcohol with other pan-handled monies, but it increases their chances of getting some nourishment, too. I have had people refuse hot, store-bought food, only wanting money. While I appreciate their candor, I don’t give them the requested cash. I also rarely have paper money and almost never coins.
  11. Frustrating when you inadvertently retry the same letter in the wrong place.
  12. IV infiltration isn’t a third world issue. I know you’re stressed, but it seems like he’s getting good care, despite his decision not to carry medical insurance. “IV infiltration is when some of the fluid leaks out into the tissues under the skin where the tube has been put into your vein. This can occur if the tip of the catheter slips out of the vein. You may have swelling, pain, or burning in the IV area. This is a common problem.”
  13. That is totally bizarre for an adult to do. Especially on an international trip.
  14. When asked to deplane, take a moment to gather your passport, wallet and medications? No kidding, you take your personal belongings with you. And I don’t believe anyone owes anyone cab fare. It’s her responsibility to provide for herself while traveling abroad. Maybe if she were more cooperative with the staff, they would have been more sympathetic, but she was obviously more interested in arguing about her removal from the plane than addressing her travel issues in a constructive manner.
  15. What’s the patch, and what’s the pill?
  16. I see you gravitating more towards a Kaiser blade. Some folks call it a Sling blade.
  17. We both should have known better than to have tried the “S” in the final placement.
  18. Nashville Sunday 2/25 at 5 pm would be a fun game. Or Vancouver 3/3, or Dallas 3/8….
  19. In this photo, the Mon soon becomes the Ohio.
  20. Your homeowners insurance? Or your professional malpractice insurance? You can do (virtually) anything you want in your own home, but doing plumbing in someone else’s home without certification seems like a losing proposition if there is ANY problems. Seems to me it would be cheaper for your boss to pay a plumber to do the installs and have you do more dialysis treatments. Especially if there is a complaint or an insurance claim.
