Did you notice that she used a butterfly needle? Like for pediatrics or someone who is dehydrated? LOL-- major trauma. Obviously some kind of psychological problem.
Thatvs what they use on me. No matter how much water I drink. I'm just a hard stick. Always have been, but the hospital burned all my veins with some kind of anti nausea thing in my iv.

Yep plus I made the mistake of watching a video of the complete surgery before hand so I knew what was coming. NOT advisable. You don't want to know.
You got that right. When they did my lung lobectomy they went in from the side. Screwed up a bunch of nerves and now I got this bag 'o fatty flesh that hangs kind of loose above the scar under my arm and gets smushed every time I put my right arm down to my side. Ends up hurting even more after a while.

@MikeE3 You don't have to "buy"... Just "borrow". Then, use cell data to download yihi software, and voila.

@MattB101 virtual machines have paid versions and free versions. Oracle makes a free one I think. Virtual box. All a virtual machine is - software that emulates a full range of hardware, allowing the use of a different operating system. Similar to emulation.

@cigatron they may have it grounded to the case, but a lot of the times, they use flimsy wire to connect the sled, 510, etc.

As for grounding, yes, they usually do ground with screws, not always, sometimes. Depending on the mod, you may or may not be able to gain access to that grounding setup without damaging the chasis.

Yep, that's why I said "a lot" of mods are grounded through the board mounting screws (chassis grounded). I'm not sure how the Reuleaux dna200 is grounded, haven't had to take mine apart yet. Wismec is bad about battery sleds and sled wiring though. The RX's break battery contact wires regularly so that may be the problem with his.

@MikeE3 well, borrow, find someone that has a legit copy, install it on VM, have 3 days to use for free, or you can phone in activation. Magic number is 1. With Windows 7 or Windows 8 / 8.1, you're still eligible for free 10 upgrade.

Well on the Saga of my wayward flavoring, It has now showed up in Federal Way, WA which is a big mail distribution point, I called the PO and he said he can't tell for sure but it looks like it's coming here. He said I could try to do a package intercept but my package was not eligible. So will wait and see. It made it all the way to Spokane 1 time and the sent it back to the East Coast. So we'll just wait and see it is in the correct state now.
If I ever do order anymore from them I'm going to have him use Deutche Post indstead of DHL. He could probably put the address on correctly. DHL is a German company and why they use it and I guess it works good over there.
He did say, the German, that it's like DHL wants the customer to pay 10 times to get air mail service. It's only a little over 3 weeks so far. Still not as bad as the Russian PO.

When I was still sculpting I received letters wanting to purchase my work form Germany via Deutche Post.....and I have received orders of products in the past from India, Turkey and a few other countries using DHL, which is used by countries around the world, not just Germany. There was no problem, with either carrier service, of the items getting here promptly, or being addressed incorrectly. The responsibility for correct addressing lies with the sender not the service carrier.

DHL isn't even the delivery agent. Legs said the sender uses DHL only for transport to Frankfort, within the country of origin. Shoot, DHL packages coming to the US from China are properly addressed, and as we know, the English alphabet and Chinese characters have just about nuttin in common.

All we're trying to do, Legs, is get you to abandon your pro bono defense of the sender. He might have great flavors but his knowledge of package addressing is lacking. Next he'll say that you'll appreciate it more having to wait so long. :thumbs:

News flash! I posted on the FP about TC today. Not once but 3 times! Woo-hoo!

I hate to say it but my heart is breaking. I have a little pup that is a 6-year old mix-breed Shih Tzu/Poodle female. Over the weekend I noticed she was having a problem with her sight. I got her to the vet yesterday and he ran a blood test. He ruled out Lime Disease and a couple others that I didn't understand. She didn't have a fever her temp was 102.8°. He gave me a 10 day supply of Prednisone to try to treat a possible infection. Her eyes are bloodshot suggesting an infection. He found no obvious reason for the loss of sight and suggested it might be a form of Macular Degeneration. I am keeping her comfortable. I have the yard sectioned off and now trying to figure out a way to mark the fence so she won't run into it and cause further harm.

Awww, that's so sad, but take heart. Dogs can make out quite well while blind. Cute story: When Mike's parents house sold the people moving in had 2 dogs, one of which was blind. The sighted dog would go over to it and grab it's ear and lead it to wherever they needed to go. So sweet! We also knew someone with a blind cocker spaniel. The only problem that dog had was when someone would reach down to touch her she'd snap at them because it startled her. She couldn't see it coming. She got around the house and yard just fine. I'm sure your pup will adapt, the question is, will you? Don't treat her with too much pity. She has a happy life with a very loving owner and just needs to get used to something new.

I came across a post whilest looking through.
This may explain my perspective and why I think people will find their way to whatever thread they choose.

ATTITUDE
by: Charles Swindoll
The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life.

Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home.

The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude... I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it.

And so it is with you... we are in charge of our attitudes.

Yes! I had this framed and hung in my office when I was still working.

Outside of vape mail I did get my new bowling ball...
