1:37 am

jillibus

busy day, ruru?

1:37 am

rururocks

i see you have you own money in salt springs

1:37 am

rururocks

yes.. I'm working a lot right now

1:38 am

rururocks

I can tell this is going to be a toughy

1:39 am

Glantarell

it's absolutely easy so far (115 left) but no doubt you're right

1:40 am

rururocks

found a re9 though

1:40 am

jillibus

apparently, ruru, but I don't use it. And it's only one spring, btw.

1:40 am

Glantarell

thats the only 9 i have so far

1:40 am

rururocks

two re9's

1:41 am

Glantarell

but reading jilli's comment i think there must be 2 re9s

1:41 am

jillibus

there are indeed 2 re9s

1:42 am

Glantarell

and jilli's clue os meaningless to me LOL

1:42 am

rururocks

it sure is pretty money though jilli

1:42 am

Glantarell

the other re9 is something gardeners do all the time

1:42 am

jillibus

my comment has nothing to do with 9s

1:43 am

Glantarell

:-) which is why i didn;t get the clue then!

1:43 am

jillibus

How did you know about SS money, ruru?

1:43 am

rururocks

I read an article on it today

1:43 am

jillibus

where?

1:43 am

rururocks

I said to myself .. I know two lovely people that live there

1:44 am

jillibus

come and see, ruru -- there are vineyards too.

1:45 am

rururocks

2:14 am

Kazzer99

Before i go - hubby just told me that in the film Back to the Future - today is the day he travels to!!

2:15 am

Glantarell

we'll look out for him then LOL

2:16 am

rbud

well, I'm glad we're not really living today like they are in the future in the movie, lol

2:16 am

rbud

although a hoverboard would maybe be fun to have

2:17 am

Glantarell

I'd only fall off it

2:18 am

rbud

me, too, but our son would have a blast

2:24 am

asellus

no they travel to the year 2015

2:24 am

asellus

so we still have time

2:24 am

asellus

:P

2:29 am

rbud

2:38 am

Glantarell

2:48 am

asellus

2:48 am

crosshair

howdy aesllus

2:48 am

asellus

this game has helped me kick ass in scrabble

2:48 am

asellus

which i played yesterday

2:49 am

crosshair

they often go hand in hand

2:49 am

sprite

good, isn't it :) I often use babble words in scrabble as well.

2:50 am

crosshair

though i now keep wanting to do only 4 letters or more on the scrabble board as well

2:50 am

rbud

only 2:50 AM here, still up, too

2:51 am

crosshair

howdy rbud

2:51 am

sprite

hi rbud. I didn't sleep before 3 am this night either.

2:52 am

asellus

same here.. i have duel screens on my computer so i was playing this while watching stuff on netflix

2:52 am

asellus

lost track of time

2:52 am

sprite

I had to learn a lot of 2 and 3 letter words when I started with scrabble, lol.

2:53 am

rbud

oh, it's just the usual around here, I'm up most nights till at least now. Hoping to get to bed earlier, son's 21st birthday was Sunday, now he says he and a couple friends are going to move into a place of their own, yay!

2:53 am

rbud

might change my whole life schedule, heehee

2:54 am

sprite

oh nice, rbud!

2:54 am

asellus

thats great :)

2:54 am

asellus

i'm 28, but i know how it feels to be on your own

2:54 am

crosshair

this is the chance for you and the mrs to sell house,move clear across the country and get a nice 700 sq foot place on the ocean so he does not move back in with someone in tow

2:54 am

rbud

it's a party every night here, can't wait till he moves it somewhere else.

2:55 am

sprite

lol I can imagine. Too many parties!

2:55 am

rbud

heehee, good point, crossy, we've contempl6 running away from home many a night.

2:56 am

sprite

*giggles*

2:57 am

rbud

he has his own building out in the yard, fixed up with most everything he needs, so mostly the parties are there, but there's always the 3 or 4 AM kitchen raid, with door slamming involved, sigh

2:58 am

crosshair

my friend has 2 sons and a daughter,all over 20,everytime one left,sure enough they would move back in with a wife,or a husband or a baby untill all were back in with a mate each and a baby each.one day i was over having a beer with him and we came up with a awsome idea. he sold the house to the kids and MY FRIEND AND HIS WIFE LEFT! lol..worked quite well actually

2:58 am

sprite

lol wisdom!

2:59 am

crosshair

they had enough to buy a small place and everyone was happy

2:59 am

asellus

i had to move back home when i went back to school and to save money. It costs $1200 for a studio around here

2:59 am

asellus

didn't bring someone with me though :P

3:00 am

crosshair

lol

3:00 am

rbud

that's exactly what we think we may do, crossy, as our daughter has already moved back, with boyfriend, and right now his two boys are spending the summer with us!

3:00 am

sprite

oh good news! Apart from the rotten knees, nothing is wrong with my love :) Heart film is good, everything is good. Only the operation to go.

3:00 am

crosshair

yaaa!

3:00 am

rbud

yay, sprite, that *is* good news!

3:00 am

sprite

sounds like a plan, rbud :) Imagine how nice, to pick a new place and make it just the way you like it.

3:00 am

crosshair

i tell you rbud,it is def a consideration

3:01 am

sprite

:D Very happy sprite! I was worried. Real glad he is ok.

3:01 am

rbud

problem is, none of them can afford to pay the bills here. :(

3:01 am

crosshair

lol

3:01 am

sprite

at some point they will have to stand on their own feet, rbud.

3:02 am

crosshair

my friends wife was happy as a clam with it all.they left all the old bisted junk with the kids,packed some mementos and clothes and then she spent the nex 2 years antiquing and yard sailing and making the new empty nester place perfect

3:03 am

sprite

sounds so lovely

3:03 am

rbud

but hubby will be broken hearted to have to leave his big shop he built recently out in the yard (the kid inherited the old small one.)

3:04 am

crosshair

mmm:(( well it will not be all perfect

3:04 am

crosshair

but the peace! the serenity!

3:04 am

sprite

he can build a new one at the new place

3:05 am

sprite

living your life in your own rhythm

3:06 am

crosshair

rule of thumbs should be the new place must be one full tank of gas away from the old place,that way you do not become a afternoon trip for a built in babby sitter but close enough that you can go back once a month and spoil the grandbabbys

3:07 am

sprite

:D Listen to crossy - he has given this some thought!

3:07 am

crosshair

you see that i have been thinking on this!

3:07 am

sprite

*snap*

3:08 am

crosshair

well,my firend is happy now,he has lost weight,the wife smiles now lol

3:10 am

rbud

we went to Iowa a couple weekends ago for a family reunion, we checked out some places his cousin has for sale or rent - we are definitely considering it.

3:10 am

crosshair

and you sell it to just one of the kids for "one dollar,plus considerations" and get the little buggers to cough up cash,save the ten grand worth of broker and other fees

3:10 am

sprite

oh niceeeeee

3:11 am

sprite

jeezzz my connection is shitty! I keep getting red boxes of doom.

3:11 am

sheesh, been working the P words for, like, ever, and I am still 9 short

9:38 am

uusue2

well, the first half of this one went pretty easily for me - can't say that for yesterday's though!!

9:38 am

MollyL

It is hard (and boring) to plod your way through 54 P words.

9:39 am

Judi

Time for a break. The Supreme Court is justifiably insane. I need more coffee. *POOF*

9:42 am

uusue2

personally I am relieved - health insurance for all is something I have been actively concerned about at least since the early 1970s, when I saw what the lack of it did to my fellow graduate students. Whew!

9:43 am

crosshair

ahh what has happened suze? did they vote in normal health care down there??

9:44 am

crosshair

do they realize yet that everyone young,old,rich,poor,job,no jobs will need a dr?

9:44 am

uusue2

The Supreme Court upheld the individual mandate, which was a key part of health care reform (ironically, it was first proposed by Republicans as an alternative to a single payer plan)

9:45 am

crosshair

so what does that mean exactly? years more of votes and courts?

9:46 am

uusue2

no, it means the health care reform bill stands as it was passed - not a single payer system but it does mean that everyone can get insurance, and that the insurance will be reasonably affordable

9:46 am

crosshair

how far from state issued health cards for all is what i guess i am asking?

9:46 am

uusue2

nowhere near, unfortunately

9:46 am

crosshair

mmmm then it is all just noise

9:47 am

uusue2

but at least the insurance companies won't be able to turn anyone away due to pre-existing conditions, and won't be able to charge unreasonable fees

9:47 am

crosshair

but if they can make it all affordable,that is one step

9:48 am

crosshair

now,before i get jumped on,ours is far from perfect,but you get seen by the right doctors and in a reasonable time frame

9:49 am

crosshair

a ct scan is a week,blood tests are right away,mri,s are 2 weels,funny though a ultrasound takes a month

9:50 am

uusue2

takes me a week to schedule an MRI unless I am already in the hospital so that is not so different

9:50 am

Mr Bob

Morning folks

9:50 am

uusue2

hi mr bob!

9:50 am

crosshair

2 local bone specialists,one obgyn and we have more cancer docs than you can shake a stick at;)

9:50 am

crosshair

howdy bob

9:51 am

uusue2

I have a young friend on public assistance and Medicaid (medical assistance for the poor) who needs to be seen by a specialist - she has Crohn's disease with complications, and the first appointment she could get is at the end of August

9:52 am

crosshair

that is just nuts

9:52 am

crosshair

so,if you cannot afford the big insurance,then the wait becomes months?

9:53 am

uusue2

if you can get seen at all

9:54 am

crosshair

so,it is a civilzed way of shoving them aside and hope they die and save all us hard working folks some money..good lord

9:54 am

uusue2

except if you go to the emergency room they have to treat you, at least to the point where it isn't an emergency

9:54 am

crosshair

mmm,i can just envision how this plays out

9:55 am

crosshair

they have to wait untill the problem is so critical that they get seen at the free hospital and then its costs medical 20 times more than if the person had been seen in a timely manner..makes sense eh?

9:55 am

uusue2

right - emergency rooms are crowded, both with non-emergencies and with things that wouldn't have been emergencies if they'd been treated in time, and hospitals are going broke because people can't pay

9:56 am

uusue2

it is pretty crazy

9:56 am

crosshair

we have walk in clinic for non emergencies,takes load off hospital each of our local docs do 3 or 4 hours a week there

9:57 am

uusue2

we have those too but you have to pay for them and if you don't have insurance they are not cheap

9:57 am

crosshair

no appt,just walk in and take a number,open from 6 pm to 9 pm every night

9:58 am

crosshair

one day suze,one day,that and the metric system eh? lol

9:58 am

hootowl

Good morning everyone! I am now happy. Was hoping they'd do it right and they did. Small step but important in sooo many ways!

9:58 am

uusue2

apparently we are getting more sensible health care before we are getting the metric system, sigh

9:59 am

uusue2

morning hoot!

9:59 am

crosshair

and allowing people in love to marry irregardles of race,creed,colour..or sex

9:59 am

crosshair

howdy hoots!

9:59 am

hootowl

hihihihi!

9:59 am

crosshair

so how is the rate scale to be set then?

9:59 am

crosshair

geared to income?

10:00 am

crosshair

or all pay the same?

10:00 am

hootowl

We have a lot of vitriol on the comment boards about geys. They are too stupid to accept facts! It is NOT a lifestyle choice!

10:01 am

crosshair

we lookm south and shake our heads..sorry

10:01 am

hootowl

Have to wake up BF.

10:02 am

crosshair

though 20 years,even ten years we were same

10:02 am

uusue2

dunno, crossy, the insurance companies are all private and for-profit still, so presumably will all still set their own rates, but they can't turn anybody away and there will be restrictions on how much they can charge

10:02 am

crosshair

well we went metric in 77 or 78 i believe

10:03 am

crosshair

and same sex marriages for last 8 or ten years

10:03 am

uusue2

we were going to in the early 1960s - I remember studying it in school at the time - but somehow it got derailed

10:03 am

crosshair

will be interesting to see how,affordable it will actually be

10:03 am

uusue2

yes, I have friends who got married in Canada!

10:04 am

bfsog

hi all

10:05 am

uusue2

indeed - in the meanwhile I can still keep my 22-year-old son on my insurance until he is 26, so that is good!

10:05 am

uusue2

morning bfs!

10:05 am

bfsog

talking of which - i am getting married next year in Scotland (where I am from) to a Canadian. Turns out getting married does not entitle me to stay in Canada (currently in Canada on a work permit visa)

10:06 am

uusue2

well, congratulations, bfs! and I hope you get your living situation sorted out...

10:06 am

bfsog

thanks! not sure what the chat is about but i saw marriage and Canada so 2 + @

10:06 am

bfsog

2*

10:08 am

uusue2

mostly we were talking about the health care ruling by the US supreme court this morning, but that morphed into other ways that Canada is more sensible than the US, same-sex marriage being one of them

10:09 am

bfsog

yes, i read somewhere that some states went back on their ruling allowing same sex marriages, i mean what the

10:09 am

uusue2

more and more are allowing at least civil unions, though (which IMHO should be all the government does for anybody anyway)

10:10 am

bfsog

do those in civil unions have the same rights/benefits as those maried?

10:11 am

uusue2

depends on the state - here in IL I think they do

10:12 am

hootowl

Yes! The only reason 'marraige' is a problem is because the church pre-empted it!

10:12 am

hootowl

The church has an awful lot to answer for.

10:13 am

uusue2

I agree, hoot!

10:13 am

hootowl

ty - I'll get off my soapbox now.

10:14 am

uusue2

:-0

10:14 am

uusue2

or :-)

10:15 am

bfsog

does anyone remember the babble helper service i made ages ago? You would type in the first 2 letters and the points value such as en6,24 and it would output all words which matched that?

10:16 am

hootowl

I also remember when they tried to switch us to metric. I'm not sure if the government quit before we did. Just too many conversions and nobody wanted it anyway.

10:17 am

hootowl

sorry - first time I'm hearing about that bfsog

10:17 am

bfsog

it was years ago

10:17 am

uusue2

no, bfs, although I saw it in your profile just now and tried to go there but couldn't

10:17 am

bfsog

yeah my host is no more.

10:17 am

MollyL

And we still don't want it, which is why we don't have it.

10:18 am

hootowl

right! We like being unique!

10:18 am

gemini_J13

we have metric,,,, just try to buy a bolt for a tractor

10:19 am

hootowl

Some do some don't. My Toyota was metric (the first one) but this one isn't.

10:19 am

hootowl

Doesn't make any dif anyway since socket sets usually include both.

we're already at 91 and it isn't even noon yet!

10:34 am

stidmama

yikes, aeb! TOO hot. Today I have the windows and doors still open, because it's a little cooler outside than inside. It's about 18 in the house right now. If I can keep it there then when it warms up the house stays comfortable.

10:34 am

uusue2

we are about the same, aeb, supposed to get to 100 today

10:36 am

aebmusica

and clear blue skies....not a cloud in site and no RAIN for days.... i'm startting to see rooling tumbleweeds here>

10:36 am

uusue2

same here - the drought is becoming severe -

10:36 am

stidmama

our skies have that high haze, it's still moist here so we build our own cloud cover when it starts to warm up

10:37 am

aebmusica

we are definitely experiencing global warmal here!

10:37 am

uusue2

anyway time for me to get on with my day - bbl!

10:38 am

stidmama

I wish I could share a little of the wet weather with you-all. Our climate is changing and so unpredictable we don't know when to plant things anymore.

10:38 am

stidmama

later sue

10:38 am

aebmusica

i mean warming...can't type ...too hot!

10:39 am

supposed to be very hot here through the weekend

10:41 am

aebmusica

yeah ..gooey fingers and all

10:42 am

stidmama

wow dose -- that's pretty extreme, all right. We don't have an air conditioner. On the really hot days we put trays of ice in front of the box fans. If it gets to hot for that, we go to museums...

10:42 am

doseffing

... that's my trick ... when the kid complains too much ... I go to the library

10:43 am

Erda

periwinkle

se PA near Philadelphia

10:43 am

Erda

ah

10:44 am

stidmama

that's a choice, too -- actually hoping to spend some time in the college library this summer doing some research on a couple things. But first I am spending this week just at home doing what strikes my fancy. Which is mostly reading... and watching TV and hanging out with my kiddo.

10:44 am

doseffing

10:45 am

stidmama

11:59 am

12:37 pm

lilliann

12:37 pm

sammysmom

i have become convinced that it is usually best to go to the car dealer for service and maintenance

12:38 pm

periwinkle

and they are close by sammysmom. I can walk there. which is good

12:38 pm

Kazzer99

12:39 pm

Flask1

nobody is talking to us lillian!!

12:39 pm

lilliann

lilliann

12:41 pm

lilliann

i'm used to it hin, atleast we have eachother :)

12:41 pm

sammysmom

when i got home, my sone ( who used to work for juffy) checked out the car... they had neglected to grease two fittings and there was a screw missing from a skid plate... he took the car back and they told him some story and he then called the district manager.............. we received a check in the mail which gave us our money back and a coupon for a free oil change in the future

12:41 pm

Flask1

me too....and that, we have!!!

12:42 pm

sammysmom

COS is OKAY. He has been online periodically. There have been occasional warnings they might have to evacuate, but up until last night they hadn't been required to go. They have places to retreat to, if necessary. I haven't seen him online yet today.

1:07 pm

lilliann

i don't have an in9 though peri, do you have a clue please?

1:07 pm

1:11 pm

stidmama

yes, they should be okay. The authorities are really trying to do everything they can to get the people (and the animals) out of the way with enough time. It's going to be a really hard inflammatory season this year, I am afraid.

1:12 pm

stidmama

see you later peri

1:12 pm

lilliann

bfn peri

1:12 pm

stidmama

lilliann -- how is your dh? did I see that he is doing his weeks away days home thing again?

1:12 pm

my heart and prayers go to them.

1:14 pm

lilliann

hw was home for my birthday, that was the weekend of the 9th of june and we were going to go out for lunch for my birthday on the sunday but the guy he sub contracts to, his sister was very ill so he went back up to scotland early and we will see him again in 2 weeks

1:15 pm

stidmama

oh my, that is a long time ((hugs)) hope the man's sister will recover okay. Do you have anything fun planned for the summer with your child?

1:15 pm

uusue2

hi again all, was doing some online shopping in hopes of finding cheap cotton pants. Polyester is cheap but too hot.

1:15 pm

uusue2

Technically today is my last day although I am not actually in the office - we have a 4-day work week during the summer.

1:16 pm

Flask1

lillian who is hw???

1:17 pm

lilliann

his sister has cancer and it was looking bad but apparently they can remove some of her organs so it's looking better now and they sent her home...which is a good sign

1:17 pm

stidmama

hey sue -- are there online used clothes stores? maybe you could find a hemp or linen blend that would wear better than cotton?

1:17 pm

stidmama

home is definitely good.

1:17 pm

lilliann

i meant to say he was flask :)

1:17 pm

uusue2

thanks to peri for the in9 - I am just editing the chapter on waves so should have seen that!

1:17 pm

Flask1

oh rite...ok...

1:17 pm

uusue2

hi stid, there are all kinds of places, I've actually found one pair that looks ok but you need to buy 4 things for the free shipping, so I am still looking

1:18 pm

stidmama

LOL sue!

1:19 pm

Flask1

clue for the first pa6/24 please?

1:19 pm

It's strange how sometimes the things we actually know about escape us in the grids

1:19 pm

lilliann

just days out stid.hopefully we will have our family holiday at christmas again...i couldn't go away on holiday just with the bairn as we would probably kill eachother!!

1:20 pm

stidmama

yes, I know that feeling lilliann -- the kid who is still at home is doing the whole adolescent thing, alternating with heart-felt apologies... but I am adamant that the entire summer shall not consist of video games and movies!!

1:22 pm

2:30 pm

hurshy

so there was this farmer working his land in maine when a man in a suit approached him. "i'm here to tell you that we've rechecked how the state lines are drawn, and your farm is in new hampshire, not maine." the farmer said, "well that's a relief." the man says, "why, what difference does it make to you?" and the farmer says, "i couldn't stand another one o' them maine winters!"

2:30 pm

westford

does he talk to the passengers and give them information along the way?

2:30 pm

3:36 pm

stidmama

hey everyone else -- back from the garden, getting so very little done today, but busy; it's just one of those heavy, pre-rain days I guess.

3:36 pm

HarryHood

hi stid

3:37 pm

HarryHood

79 and I can't get anymore. bbl to list

3:37 pm

HarryHood

79 and I can't get anymore. bbl to list

3:37 pm

stidmama

how's today for you harry?

3:38 pm

HarryHood

ok stid - I'm also unable to get anything done.

3:38 pm

stidmama

at least I am not alone! LOL

3:38 pm

HarryHood

we're trying to rent a van for our vacation, and there are none to be had.

3:38 pm

HarryHood

and I just want to lie down and sleep, but I've got a mess of kids demanding attention

3:38 pm

stidmama

oh gee -- that's a shame. How far are you going?

3:39 pm

HarryHood

really only need a vehicle for part of it. I had started months ago, and then neglected to reserve anything, and now I got back to it to find everything taken

3:39 pm

stidmama

ah, I remember those days. Yesterday Grant had a friend over watching a movie and I just lost all steam -- but kids that old don't need constant supervision, so I stretched out on the sofa. Hoping my snoring didn't bother them too much!

3:40 pm

stidmama

I have done that, too.

3:40 pm

HarryHood

looks like I picked the wrong year to quit coffee

3:41 pm

stidmama

hm. have you tried tea? LOL

3:41 pm

HarryHood

for some reason, my soon-to-be-three-year-old is insisting that she is a horse whose name is Yellowhat

3:42 pm

stidmama

good name for a horse -- maybe she could pull an old-fashioned wagon for that leg of your trip?

Three was a wonderful age for my kids.

3:42 pm

HarryHood

aah! good idea - put her to work.

3:43 pm

HarryHood

her birthday is sunday! and she is the most headstrong of my kids.

3:43 pm

stidmama

It seems so unfair that they have unlimited energy and then sleep so well and we struggle to get going and don't sleep so well.

3:44 pm

stidmama

what fun -- anything nice planned? My grandmother was born on the 4th. She told me once that she thought all the banners and bunting and fireworks were for her!

3:46 pm

HarryHood

heh - we're having a party with another girl, but not for a couple weeks.

3:46 pm

HarryHood

we didn't do any parties for our kids until 3.

3:46 pm

HarryHood

but I got an ice cream cake for sunday

3:46 pm

stidmama

same here -- or four... waited until they had actual playmates. Before then just a nice dessert.

Hi all. Happy Bday to Yellow Hat Harry.

3:55 pm

stidmama

hey red! home early today -- did you get flooded where you are?

3:57 pm

redturtlehead

No flooding here because we actually have hills and Lakes....but yes, I got off work early, which is nice...since I stayed late a few days ago.

3:58 pm

stidmama

Is it nice having a "desk job" after all those years working on your feet?

3:58 pm

stidmama

I am so totally stuck at 63... *sigh*

3:59 pm

redturtlehead

It's alright, the hassles are a lot bigger...and there is still a lot of walking, but not nearly as much pushing or pulling...

3:59 pm

doseffing

... use the list ... it's still slow ... but they do appear

3:59 pm

redturtlehead

i have 183 left...

4:00 pm

redturtlehead

how are you all doing?

4:00 pm

stidmama

I am glad you didn't have the flooding -- I remember one time I was visiting a friend near Orlando and it rained -- the REALLY DEEP ditches were not enough and the water came all the way up to the front door. But luckily no further.

4:00 pm

stidmama

thanks doseffing

4:00 pm

redturtlehead

there have been a lo of problems, but we are now nice and blue skies again until the next event!

4:01 pm

stidmama

I am tired, red -- and not sure why other than I just have anxiety about getting a job (or not) for the coming school year. Anxiety makes me scattered and sleepy.

4:01 pm

redturtlehead

That would give me anxiety as well...

4:02 pm

stidmama

I know that I will have enough work as a sub to make my obligations, just wish I could land something regular so I could get to know the kids and actually "teach" instead of just putting out fires.

4:03 pm

4:34 pm

crosshair

sorry

4:35 pm

Jillyjill

Actually, with the $$ problems we have, we would do well to adopt Canada's position, if a couple lives together (for a year I believe) whether gay or straight, they are TAXED as a coujple...hell, we could make some major coin here!!

4:35 pm

Jillyjill

HEALTH CARE is a basic human right!

4:35 pm

cosdem

its called common sense jill. lacking in our Congess

4:36 pm

Jillyjill

In most of our legislative bodies....

4:36 pm

crosshair

and i will not even get into trying to decide who other people should marry.we decided it was not our place.same sex couples can get married here with all the duties and privilages that goes with it

4:36 pm

lynxxx

a couple gets taxed more than 2 singles?

4:37 pm

Jillyjill

That's my feeling here, legal marriage for whomever, then the churches can decide if they will marry couples or not...

4:37 pm

crosshair

a couple is a cpuple,we do not differentiate..period why should we?

4:38 pm

cosdem

the govt is obsessed with the sexual organs

4:38 pm

who and i so say ya or nay to who jilly marries,or lynxx or cosdem or whoever??

4:38 pm

4:39 pm

the issue now will be that since the health plan has been defined as a tax, will our care be supervised by the IRS?

4:42 pm

cosdem

shameful

4:43 pm

MollyL

*Sigh*..."we" do not define who is a couple, our legislators do. Many people in the US are very pro same sex marriage.

4:43 pm

crosshair

our health care is supervized by revenue canada.but it is that or insurance companies right?

4:43 pm

cosdem

not really -- its just a difference in tax rates

4:44 pm

crosshair

docs,bill rev canada instead of insurance companies

4:44 pm

crosshair

and we pay tax to the gov

4:44 pm

the sea bird is a FIVE letter word, jilly

11:07 pm

herinfernallady

Yep we have Hendra and it killed a vet here

11:08 pm

herinfernallady

ANd even trees that attack you.

11:08 pm

jesdraggon

heh. i'll stick with the rabies. at least i'm vaccinated for that.

11:09 pm

mab

one can be vaccinated for rabies?

11:09 pm

herinfernallady

But we don't have a vacine for the myxo here.

11:09 pm

herinfernallady

Hi Mab

11:10 pm

mab

hi herin. nice to see you.

11:10 pm

jesdraggon

indeed, mab. and if working with animals, or living in india or africa, one should be.

11:11 pm

mab

i suppose if cats and dogs can be vaccinated for rabies it only makes sense that people can be too.

11:11 pm

herinfernallady

Honestly I stager the vaccines for the cats. They don't go outside

11:13 pm

jesdraggon

the vaccine is what they give you if you get bitten, mab. I just got mine done before there was an issue.

11:15 pm

mab

so it's the same when you get it before - the painful, multi-stage procedure?

11:15 pm

jesdraggon

uhm. no. the whole stomach wall injection thing you're thinking of? not the deal anymore.

11:16 pm

mab

oh. good.

11:16 pm

jesdraggon

i got 3 subcutaneous injections about 12 ago. got my titers checked a couple years ago, still high.

11:16 pm

herinfernallady

We get tetnus injections for bites

11:16 pm

jesdraggon

if I get bitten by a bat or unvaccinated dog, i get one booster shot.

11:16 pm

jesdraggon

if you get bitten, you get a series of 5, i think, but they are either subcutaneous or intramuscular.

11:17 pm

jesdraggon

we get those too, lady

11:17 pm

mab

oh. obviously changed quite awhile ago.

11:17 pm

mab

i got all sorts of injections before going to africa

11:18 pm

jesdraggon

yeah, the main reason more people aren't vaccinated is that it's kind of spendy and not many insurance companies cover it.

11:18 pm

herinfernallady

But no rabies for us

11:18 pm

jesdraggon

given the rate of rabies in some parts of africa, i'd have wanted a rabies vaccine before i went if i was you :)

11:19 pm

jesdraggon

keep it that way, lady. rabies sucks.

11:19 pm

herinfernallady

I figured that.
