    What do you do?

    I've almost had them all ask what pay scale I was expecting in a phone call. Normally I get calls from the owner but ocassionally a business might have a HR person that might screen 3 resumes and call to ask before they give them to the owner. I guess that's the benefit of small business...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Jimmies rustled at the entire healthcare profession again. Two months ago had a spinal tap scheduled at 6 am and the DR. didn't show up. Today another one at noon and the Dr. didn't show up and his office is in the same building attached to the hospital. I walked over and told him what I thought...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Everyone I know has a shop in addition to a garage or a carport. Carport are popular here because it doesn't get cold and you can boil crawfish or BBQ under them if it's raining. I personally don't know anyone without a shop and that includes my 69 year old mother and my 93 year old grandmother.

    Reading Rainbow Kickstarter

    Born in '71 and I had never heard of reading raindbow till this last week when it suddenly popped up everywhere. I guess by age 12 I was too old if that's when it started.

    I had chicken pox as a kid, got shingles as an adult. In response to the shingles I got ADEM which causes the brain to swell, produces lesions on the brain that short circuit paralyzing your (in my case both legs) as well as making the immune system attack the lining of your nerves. Basically...

    I live a very sheltered life and haven't seen another person on a bike while riding mine in probably 10+ years. What's the purpose of the fat tires?

    Health Problems

    43 and been a diabetic since age 5. It's never really kept me from doing anything I wanted. They eventually changed it where you could get a pilots license and that was about it. I've done all sorts of physical stuff including backpacking solo multiple times out west for up to 10 days at a time...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    We don't have parking garages here, but normally I just park out as far as I can past everyone else and walk. Even when I was walking with a cane it wasn't worth dicking around to find a closer spot. I'm a big get ni and get out type person. Todays jimmies rustled when I put on a pair of...

    Depression

    I'm curious if the anti depressant he prescribed is going to make a big change after all the newness of being "cured" wears off. Of course after 4 months of this it's almost like a complete life changing event.

    Depression

    Maybe, but right now my money is on the massive brain swelling that caused me to be dizzy, confused, and impaired my optic nerve. The infusion that reduced my swelling also reduced the brain lesions my impairment caused and likely they will disappear in short order. They got to the point they...

    Depression

    ?? afer these 5 days of mass infusion there's a 99.9% chance I'm cured for life and get a "back to normal prognosis" FOREVER. Just seem so high right now, it's amazing how well you feel after they finally stop your brain from being so swollen that you can't think, walk, see etc..for 3 months.

    Depression

    I guess I'll go against the grain. I'm so anti depressed I can't believe it. I didn't realise how bad my medical deal had become so that now that I'm "normal" it's like being on the biggest high. I'm a pretty low beat person but now I want to complete my life buket list in the next 3 days lol. I...

    Smartphones

    Can anyone recommend a small (if not the smallest) Android smart phone? I had a Samsung infuse and I hated it. I wound up ditching it to go back to a flip phone while my contract ran out. I need something very small. Don't care if it has a camera or anything like that or really any aps. I just...

    Handheld Molecular Scanner

    I didn't have anything to do with it. I'm not even sure of the brand we have since I never use it. Just pulled up a pic of something similar. I know they bought one from the rep that he had used a demo model for a while. This was several years ago when it wasn't all that common. We're not a lab...

    I owned a minority stake in a business since college, almost 20 years. A friend had the idea and another had the connections needed.

    I see the internal numbers for the 2nd largest refinery in the US (used to be single largest) and the numbers aren't down, consumption in the US may be down but we export a lot more gas than we used to.

    I did a tandem jump just over 20 year ago. I got it as a gift for my 21st birthday. It was OK I just didn't get a big thrill out of it so I never pursued it.
