Is that Bedlam and Squalor?
Close enough!
Well, I would guess that it isn't Pheonix, AZ. Is it Cleveland having a cavalier attitude about it?
Here's your third-party candidate, dday...

w.t.f is going on in 61,805!
It looks like people are chimneying up some fluted wall.
It's a parking garage... In the early-'90s I lived in a 9th floor apartment almost right across the street. The "fluted wall" is there to vent auto exhaust gasses. They've squeezed through the vents and are straddling the gap between them to get a better view of the parade.Quote:

That's better than most celebrations of that type.
It's quiet around here.
...too quiet....
....they must be up to something!

Anybody who has read the book should also see the site. I just love it. The more you read, the more baffled you become. It's layered puzzles like an onion. Just consider who, what, especially when, how, and pretty soon you'll get to the big one: W. T. and most definitely :afrog:?
Not to change the subject...
I am back home now. This last Friday after lunch my vision went white.
Couldn't see much of anything. I also couldn't catch my breath sitting still.
I was driven fifty miles into Portland where the VA determined I was severely dehydrated due to stupidly high glucose levels.
They pumped me full of fluids and brought my glucose levels back down to normal with an insulin drip.
I am back at home/work now. Scary stuff.
Your vision went white? What's that like? Could you see light, just without being able to differentiate it, or was it kind of a bright blindness? Scary stuff, from the sound of it. So, are you ok now?
Hard to say. I guess light blindness. It was worse when the ambient light was bright.
I could dimly make out some things when it was darker.
The young man they found to drive me to the hospital was all fired up to get me there quickly.
(I think he was worried I would croak on him. :) )
As bad as my vision was I could tell he was speeding and right the bumper of those in front of us.
I had to calmly tell him it would do no good if we both ended up mangled on the road.
Trying to check my blood sugar hourly now and take insulin if needed.
(God I hate poking my fingers. Stings like an SOB.) Injecting insulin on the other hand doesn't hurt at all.
Do you have a good endocrinologist? I got one about a year ago when my boys pediatrician asked me if I'd had my thyroid checked lately! She is a master doctor - nearly saved my life.
Now I get two vials of blood drawn every month - I've got an eye specialist and just added a skin specialist - and I've got one of the worst obamacare plan for all this constant claim use.
If you don't mind me asking, what does your skin do and does your insurance cover it?Quote:

I didn't realize it also hated my thyroid until that doc pointed it out!
Well care visits and RX costs are nicely covered. Sick visits not so much. Monthly lab costs - all not covered (go to deductible).
I had heard that as long as you never found out you were sick ACA was great - now I know the details personally.
Maybe he figured that high blood pressure and adrenaline would fix you right up.Quote:

Did you look at the forum? There's a two page thread in there that has more gems than the crown jewels.
Amen!!Quote:
battle programming is not just programming it is something beyond
and U can see it in this thread
how a simple prog task becomes a puzzle
Celebrate the independence of your nation by blowing up a small part of it.
I blew my nose this morning. I'm a Brit, though, so this represents a celebration of dependence.
By the way, you Americans are welcome to come back now that we've got rid of those pesky Europeans.
A bit but i haven't yet come across the 2 pager thread, i will revisit and take another look as these pearls of wisdom need to gain wider proliferation.Quote:

We'll give you Trump, as a start.
There's some confusing stuff in there. Some of the text at the top of the page is actually a menu. One of the menu items takes you to some other forum that has Old attached to the name. That one is loaded with programming tips for various things, generally short. There's also a thread on how to make pickles, how to unclog a drain, how to start growing sprouts, and other such stuff. I believe it's under the Castle menu.Quote:

Welcome back, yes when all other threads have died a long death this thread will remain, even if just so BonkerGud can pop occasionally and pronounce something unintelligible.Quote:

The race goes not to the swift (some of the posts are none too swift, for sure), but to the enduring.
There are some threads we wish would die, but they just keep going on and on and on and on.... like a bad nightmare.
or a bad girlfriend
or a bad cold
or like this post....
Chit chat is pretty nearly the only chit that gets chatted, these days.
How many times has the "subject" been changed in this thread?Quote:
