    OT Vista

    Thank you, Shelley, for the link. I agree that Vista has some desirable features and that eventually it might be a good thing. But I also agree that it was rushed, and I don't see any reason for it. It isn't as though software manufacturers have new and/or upgraded Vista-ready products...

    OT Vista

    For those of you out there who are getting ready to purchase a new computer or upgrade to Vista, I would advise that you wait or, better yet, buy a MAC. I got a virus on my "old" computer and ended up purchasing a new one rather than pay to have the other one cleaned up (I had already sunk $$$...

    I don't want to be 43!!!

    Okay. Here's an idea. Just use a different numbering system. For example, I am 56, BUT in hexadecimal I am 38. Only in hexadecimal you are 2B, so that doesn't work so well for you right now. BUT you can make up your own. You could use a base 20 system--and then you would be 23! There you...

    Buddy having surgery

    My 4-year-old chocolate lab, Buddy, is having surgery today. He has a torn cruciate ligament, and they are doing what is called a TPLO. It is a two-hour surgery and very invasive. He is a healthy dog and I am taking him to a specialist, but I still am worried just b/c that's what I do best...

    Ok. I gotta ask. Do you iron your sheets?

    Are you kidding me? That just makes me hot under the collar!:P I'm sure the woman thought it was a pressing matter, but, really who cares? I hope she can smooth things over with the housekeeper and get past it. What a hangup!! :) :) ETA No, I don't iron sheets--or anything else.

    Has anyone ever had cortisteriod shots (long)

    Carrie, There was no specific event that caused my injury, so the doctor said it was probably "overuse." The MRI showed a bone spur on the underside of the collar bone. B/c I have a lot of inflammation in the rotator cuff, the bone spur cuts into it and causes a lot of pain. The PT was an...

    Girl Scout cookies

    I try to avoid those thin mints, too, but every year I cave. On the upside, the fact that they are now free of trans fats makes them health food, right?;) And, Bill, just two???? MissL

    Has anyone ever had cortisteriod shots (long)

    Hi Carrie, Like TeTe, I have had the shots in my shoulder. Yes, the shots were very painful. The first one worked. By the next day, the shoulder pain (which had been very intense) was gone completely. After a while (maybe two or three months) it wore off, and the pain returned. The...

    ((((((((((Brandi))))))))) I am so sorry. I know you are really hurting right now and will continue to grieve for your precious Rudy. I cannot say anything that will make you feel better. If I could, I would offer a shoulder to cry on and ask you to tell me all about Rudy. You will never...
