Whatever.

Enjoy your sleep.

And your co-pays and deductibles and limits.

And rest easy knowing that millions of people went into bankruptcy due to medical bills in the USA!

If she's got mites don't use the stuff from the vet to clear them up. I've always used Vitamin E Oil. Clean her ears with it REAL WELL for a few days and it'll clear them up. The oil suffocates the mites and is non-toxic for your cat.

I think I have PTSD from listening to those snores early on in our relo!

It's not funny!

(on the other hand, that CPAP machine keeps us in the same bed--five star rating for that baby!)

OK, it's early am, 2000.. I just get home from work and my then g/f and I are watching TV at 6am.. A comersial for this new and AWESOME product comes on.. We watch and she wants to get it.. We go back and forth, me saying that I don't care, I don't shave my legs, she is indesisive.. THEN the timer starts.. We'll get a free gift, but ONLY if we call in the next 15 minutes.. Yes, she ended up calling and getting the stuff..

ummm.. When it came in, she tried it and is put to tears with the pain of every hair on her leg being ripped from the roots.. Of course, I've GOT to see what the big deal is.. Holy Mary and Jeebus.. I think I GREW nads from the pain!

Moral of the story? Don't get nadded..

What? I gotta wake up to Soon posting about pap smears? I need more coffee and my glasses are filthy.

Greyson · 08-16-2010, 01:05 PM

Okay, I have one. I'm not saying it does not work but ....

This weekend there was a minor accident and we needed to purchase a bottle of benadine solution. We left the dinner party and went to the drug store and purchased an 8 oz. bottle of this magical healing elexir. I was bowled over when I realized it was $17. When did povidone-iodine get so expensive?

Ok...this is where the original "rocking" shoe came from. I don't know how any of the cheaper versions by reebok, sketchers, curves, etc..work, but MBTs are really good! (expensive though) A friend told me to get them for work to help my feet and back...and they DO work!

One caution....don't buy a pair of these shoes (from wherever) and think you can wear them all day right away...you'll give yourself shin splints if you wear them for a prolonged period of time before allowing your body to get used to the balance shift....just an FYI.

This is hysterical!

That must mean I am a geezer too????

Oh and myyy slinky worked fine.

Converse · 08-16-2010, 02:50 PM

Discounted Ikea furniture. I bought a bunk bed, flat packed on sale (very cheap) from Ikea. Everything was so off that after 2 days- the use of a drill, a circular saw, 10 varieties of bolts and wood glue- to put it together, I still ended up with something that looked like playground equipment. The child asked if she could have a pool at the end of the bed – so she could just slide into it in the mornings.

I attempted to join an Ikea’s Anonymous support group but the door handle fell off when I tried to enter the room to the meeting.

None of their directioons seem to be written by a native English speaker of any kind. I suspect they are translated from the original Chinese by Swedes using an on line translating service.

All the stuff that I've purchased from IKEA is like that, Converse - even without being discounted. I purchased a wardrobe gizmo, had fits putting it together. Apparently, wrong instructions. So a straight cis male and his wife came over to help. The sucker's heavy. He and I grunted, sweated and swore. We did it ... when his wife instructed us!
