Only possible recourse, if you paid via credit card, is to lodge a complaint with the issuer.

TY Rose
2:16 am
grannyrose

just can't work it out, jack, they sent me 4 bottles of new med, plus 2 out of date ones. and i paid last march, can i still lodge a complaint with the credit card peeps?
2:17 am
ursh

ty rose - was looking for cemetary type words thinking funeral address would be a cemetary
2:17 am
grannyrose

lol, urshy....sorry, dear one, but that is too funny
2:19 am
brandyjack

Everything depends on the credit card company. The policies differ depending on the products and the company. They've acknowledged sending you outdated product. When you say last march, are you referring to 2011 or 2012? I presume 2012.
2:20 am
grannyrose

jack, just spoke to him who must be obeyed, he says to give the company the opportunity to respond to my last email( other side of the weekend).
2:20 am
brandyjack

whats funny is, I've never seen either of those words before, but from a meager description, I was able to get both of those words with all of those vowels without a false guess... Gotta love this game...
2:20 am
gapeach

Granny, brandyjack is right. I've had to complain to the credit card company several times.....once for $1,000 to a roofing company who didn't do the work and the cr. cd. people got it back for me.....give them a call...I believe they will get your money back.
2:20 am
grannyrose

yes, jack, 2012.
2:21 am
grannyrose

and it was a visa card
2:22 am
grannyrose

i'm not asking for all the money back...either send newer stock, or refund for the 2 bottles out of date.
2:23 am
grannyrose

i think the distributor has been fed a line, so to speak, and it really isn't their fault. they are acting in good faith on what they have been told.
2:26 am
brandyjack

retail stores here know enough not to try and sell stuff past its expiry date unless its on a clearance rack, 'all sales final'. And foodstuffs will be marked down drastically the day before expiry, but will never be sold after the expirty. Liability is far too high...

4:42 pm

they are never alone, often whole hillsides are covered in them - it's stunning when you see that. They are a woodland plant, so when you see them on a bare hillside, it is an indication that the hollside was wooded once

there is a lot of snow here still -- and occasionally a little more gets laid down. But last year was very dry.
4:46 pm

We hardly got any snow here at all. Especially compared to last winter.
4:46 pm
stidmama

water is so important to our agricultural regions.
4:46 pm
Glantarell

we didn't have snow this winter - other than a few flakes here and there - not that we often have more than an inch or two, which only stays for a few days
4:47 pm
stidmama

Unfortunately the aquifers in many places are depleted because of overpopulation... and the peculiar need Americans seem to have for green lawns everywhere.
4:47 pm
stidmama

isn't that because of the gulf stream waters, glantarell? I know Ireland stays warm because of that current.
4:47 pm
Glantarell

Here in the UK, they are starting to pump water form one area into another - but we are a much more compact country so it is possible to do that - only sending it 50 miles or so
4:47 pm

But we get lots of snow. This year we got a snowstorm in Oct. That knocked out the power for days as the leaves were still on the trees. Then hardly anything

the Colorado River doesn't even reach the sea any more, it's so sad -- and a good bit of California is maintained by "borrowed" water in the same way Las Vegas is.

here in Wales we are unlikely to even need a hosepipe ban - I live about 6 miles form the wettest town in Europe LOL - 27 inches a year

I think for some people it's a very real thing, and other people just jump on the bandwagon. Gluten free is trendy right now. Just like lactose intolerant used to be.

It's also very expensive to buy gluten free products. I have no idea why someone would opt for it if they didn't need to.

agreed molly... esepcially with the economy
5:07 pm

gluten free products mostly taste like cardboard in my opinion LOL
5:07 pm

It's really hard though when you go out to eat...things have wheat hidden in them in a variety of ways. You can eat healthy without going gluten free.

Herd immunity is incredibly important in preventing disease in babies too young to vaccinate, but it only works if the adults in contact with those babies are immunized.

7:43 pm
jesdraggon

no
7:43 pm
cosdem

because of the fun?
7:43 pm
cosdem

gun i mean
7:43 pm
jmcnrick

i bet all the turkey farmers were shaking in their boots that reagan was shot
7:44 pm
jmcnrick

actually it was because the assassination was just before thanksgiving and almost no one felt like celebrating
7:45 pm
jesdraggon

ah. that makes sense
7:45 pm
jmcnrick

but it is not a reason why turkey farmers should be especially nervous of presidential assassinations
7:46 pm
jmcnrick

so hows the rescue biz jes?

Hey jmc. Do you know a lovely man who may attend your meetings named David Mills?
8:48 pm
Bugsaw

sorry for the hiccup
8:49 pm
jmcnrick

hmmm let me check
8:50 pm
Bugsaw

apparently he works for Obama in the Dept of Commerce BIS Department. Our parents were old friends
8:51 pm
jmcnrick

hmmm he doesn't seem to be connected to my meeting but there are a handful of meetings around DC
8:51 pm
jmcnrick

cool bugs
8:51 pm
jmcnrick

langley hill is next door to the cia
8:51 pm

for sure they were of your faith and the career David has seems along the line of yours. he was such a sweet kid when I lived with them
8:52 pm
jmcnrick

alexandria is surrounded by an army base
8:52 pm
Bugsaw

I am only asking because someone else did and you never know how small the world is.
8:52 pm
jmcnrick

well he may be at bethesda or adelphi
8:53 pm
carleekat

bug am doing one of the ennegram tests online right now
8:54 pm
jmcnrick

true true there are only about 91,000 quakers in the US
8:54 pm
jmcnrick

he may attend and not be in the directory or have introduced himself
8:55 pm
Bugsaw

they are a good place to start carleekat. once you get a place to start, really examine it to see how true it is.
8:55 pm
jmcnrick

one enchanted evening. . . ..
8:55 pm
Bugsaw

for Pete's sake jmc, I thot you knew ALL the Quakers in the US ! ;)
8:55 pm
jmcnrick

haha!
8:56 pm
jmcnrick

no not all of them
8:56 pm
jmcnrick

but quite a cross-section

oh no surprise there..the helper... sheesh...

8:57 pm
jmcnrick

south pacific was a great musical
8:58 pm
jmcnrick

what tests should i take here carlee and bugs?
8:58 pm
Bugsaw

carle now look at the traits of the 2 and if they seem true, see how much 8 and 4 seem familiar to you
8:58 pm
jmcnrick

even numbers are nice but wimps
8:59 pm
jmcnrick

odds numbers are the bad boys
8:59 pm
Bugsaw

you don't have to take any jmc but she is looking into the enneagram, an interest of mine. a bit like Meyers Briggs.
8:59 pm
jmcnrick

sorry that was my childhood vision of numbers
8:59 pm
Bugsaw

I'm a 5 so I must be bad then.... :)
8:59 pm
LeslieAnn

oh i have a book on that. i think i am a 4? have to go check
8:59 pm
jmcnrick

okay i will find it . . . meyers briggs was entertaining
9:00 pm
jmcnrick

well the numbers all aspired to be 10
9:00 pm
jmcnrick

sometime when i am really really drunk i will explain the story of the numbers
9:00 pm
carleekat

funny when i answered the ?'s....i was only 1 more than others ( like 6 at 2, 5 at 3 5 at 4 and so on0 and yet 2 is me bang on
9:01 pm
carleekat

its true when i get upset i am an 8
9:01 pm
jmcnrick

hmmm i am guessing with no more information than the descriptions that i am an 8
9:02 pm
jmcnrick

brb
9:03 pm
jmcnrick

hmmm should i take the one with the instinctual variant?
9:03 pm
Bugsaw

if you go to 8 when you are upset, you could be right. Do you also like to save things for the memories? or have to answer the phone evenif it probably is a salesman carlee?
9:04 pm
Bugsaw

not sure what you are looking at jmc but 8 peolpe have a very strong intuition component
9:04 pm
carleekat

yeap and I used to be like that bug (ie the phone) but with teenagers and the fact that I have learned it is never for me i can completely ignore it
9:05 pm
carleekat

http://www.enneagraminstitute.com/begi
n.asp
9:05 pm
carleekat

i did the 10 min one there mind it took me about 3 mins
9:05 pm
Bugsaw

LOL carlee - You have used the enneagram in the way it was meant to be used! when you find out what you do when you are not at your best, then you can shift to your gift
9:06 pm
carleekat

what is my gift?
9:06 pm
carleekat

( bug JUST lost me)
9:06 pm

9:08 pm

you run your office long enough and you automatically answer the phone
9:08 pm
carleekat

ok doing jmc's version now..the long one 14 pages of questions
9:08 pm
jmcnrick

so should i do that one?
9:09 pm
carleekat

no idea....i wanted to do this one b/c the one i posted was like the shorter one on your site
9:11 pm
Bugsaw

the idea is that everyone was born with a gift but when llife happens we forget it. 2's have the gift of hope I think
9:11 pm
carleekat

i am answering most of these yes
9:12 pm
jmcnrick

oh look at that i am an 8
9:13 pm
jmcnrick

hahahaha i know myself
9:15 pm
jmcnrick

*puts on foil cap and cape*
9:15 pm
Bugsaw

you are a redeemed 8 jmc. I read somewhere they are the best kind
9:15 pm
stidmama

I seem to be a six *relurks*
9:15 pm
jmcnrick

haha how am i redeemed?
9:16 pm
jmcnrick

stidmama is loyal
9:16 pm
carleekat

hi stiddy {{hugs}}
9:16 pm
Bugsaw

Hi stid. If you identify with 6, was it hard to decide between 3, 6 and 9? they are all related so closely lots of people have to really work at it to see where they are truely at home
9:16 pm
Bugsaw

you could well be a 6
9:17 pm
stidmama

first time I tied 2,4,6 -- second time clearly 6.
9:17 pm
stidmama

But I think a longer test would be more clear, I am "of two minds" about a lot of things, and tend to switch how I act depending on situations. A lot.
9:18 pm
carleekat

hmmm this one says i am 1
9:18 pm
Bugsaw

jmc, 8's without faith can be pretty frightening because of their power. 8's want the best for everyone and sometimes barrel over others to get their way
9:18 pm
carleekat

1w2 or 2w1
9:19 pm
carleekat

hmmmi thin 2w1
9:19 pm
carleekat

think*
9:19 pm
jmcnrick

haha *swirls cape* that's me barrelling over people to save the world
9:19 pm
Bugsaw

don't worry any of you!!! I said I study it because it is complex and explained to me why I behave in one way under some circumstances and the opposite under different circumstances.
9:20 pm
jmcnrick

dear bugs i never worry over these things i use them to give me some insight
9:20 pm
carleekat

same as what JMC says
9:20 pm
Bugsaw

I had a boss that was an angry 8 jmc. when he was off balance we all had to do everything his way all the time even if it made no sense. We just waited till he left and forgave him because of his good days
9:21 pm
carleekat

also sees me as a 1w9
9:21 pm
Bugsaw

I am so glad you are enjoying it. Stidmama sounded confuesed there for a bit
9:22 pm
Bugsaw

it makes senses that you could be a 2 carlee because they also have strong tendencies towards the characteristic of the 1 and 3, the onels on either side
9:23 pm
carleekat

hmmm... well... but i can see 9 in me too..i tend to be a diff person for every person i relae with
9:23 pm
carleekat

( i am good at sales)
9:23 pm
carleekat

relate*
9:23 pm
stidmama

I am not confused... but having taken many assessments of this type I know that my flexible nature yields less accurate results with short versions. I operate in different ways at different times because I have had to in order to survive. So these forced choice instruments are somewhat unwieldy.
9:24 pm
stidmama

so I don't know. If I had money to spend, it would go to clothes, food or the garden, rather than a longer test.
9:24 pm
stidmama

how are you doing anyway, Bugs and carlee and jmc? I haven't seen you three at the same time for a while
9:24 pm
carleekat

heheeh...i am with you there stiddy..and i would get bored with the longer test
9:25 pm
Bugsaw

I was trained by someone who was trained by Helen Palmer. It is an oral tradition that wants you to tell stories on yourself about how you behaved what your motivations were to really get close to where you fall
9:25 pm
Bugsaw

I am feeling MUCH better stid. only 54 more work days until I get to retire !
9:26 pm
stidmama

that's pretty nifty, bugs! and so pleased you will get to retire soon. I know you will enjoy having the time to devote to your family and hobbies!
9:26 pm
carleekat

i am taking the rest of the night off stiddy... i have most of my philosophy essay done but....i need to let it percolate and i need to step away so i can see clearly what i need to change to sharpen my arguments
9:26 pm
jmcnrick

weeeeeelll my experience is that we are all different in different situations. . . even with meyers brigg i have a personal persona and a professional persona
9:26 pm
stidmama

good idea, carlee -- a trick that many younger students haven't figured out yet.
9:26 pm
jmcnrick

wt gcarlee
9:27 pm
jmcnrick

*wtg
9:27 pm
carleekat

i am arguing against plantinga ( he is an exclusivist) and i am using james, kierkegaard and socrates with a bit of david wilcox to argue against him
9:28 pm
jmcnrick

i do it differently. . .i let it all bubble until i have time to write it
9:28 pm
jmcnrick

whoo hooo carlee!
9:29 pm
carleekat

technically i am to argue Pro hicks but plantinga is anti hicks..so I am anti Plantinga
9:29 pm
stidmama

'zactly, jmc -- and you know I had to be one way at home when I was growing up and another way in public. I work hard now to be honest and clear with people without being rude. I don't like being completely different people!
9:29 pm
jmcnrick


i have no problem with it meself
9:30 pm
jmcnrick

i hate to hug people i don't know but am very touchy feely to those i love
9:30 pm
carleekat

in my professional life i have no problem being different to diff people b/c diff people have diff needs
9:30 pm
stidmama

resolves to not be huggy next time jmc visits.
9:30 pm
jmcnrick

there you go
9:31 pm
jmcnrick

haha i had such a good time with your dad
9:31 pm
jmcnrick

give him my love
9:31 pm
carleekat

as for huggy...it depends..i have no problem hugging people who really NEED a hug
9:31 pm
jmcnrick

(it will drive him crazy)
9:31 pm
jmcnrick

i only need a hub from someone i know
9:31 pm
stidmama

rofljmc!
9:32 pm
jmcnrick

*hug
9:32 pm
carleekat

not me needing a hug... but i have been in situations this year at school with classmates i have come to know...and there have been times they have felt like they are coming apart and i dont mind hugging them
9:33 pm
Bugsaw

and I stopped going to a church when too many people I didn't know wanted to hug me all the time...........
9:33 pm
stidmama

brb dinner
9:33 pm
carleekat

and my pathfinders ( teenagers) i hug them all the time i am their spare mommy..especially at camp
9:33 pm
jmcnrick

i don't mind hugging people who need it. . .i hate people who think they should hug me
9:34 pm
jmcnrick

i is with you bugs
9:34 pm
jmcnrick

wtg carlee
9:34 pm
carleekat

no...i never feel i SHOULD hug people
9:34 pm
carleekat

i hug when they convey a need to be hugged
9:34 pm
Bugsaw

exactly jmc. sometimes a hug is needed and sometimes it is invasive.
9:34 pm
jmcnrick

it is not that i object to hugs . . . i object to unsolicited hugs from people i do not know well
9:35 pm
carleekat

that would creep me out JMC
