Good morning Reoville :) We got a light dusting of snow last night but I doubt it'll last through the day. I have a busy day ahead of me. I am going in for shoulder surgery tomorrow morning. Nothing too serious, I have some bone spurs in my right shoulder and they're going in with the medical Dremel to smooth everything out. I do have a bunch of stuff that needs to be done while I still have 2 relatively good hands. I'm not a lefty, so the next couple weeks should be challenging to say the least ;) The real test will be next week when The Evil One has to go to Philly for the week for work.


Master of Bassets...and not much else.

Dang Mike! Serious prayers they can get your pain under control so it is "nothing serious" :blink:

I hope you are planning on some serious down time with that shoulder until the bone has time to heal over! Bone pain SUCKS, the stitches suck too. You gonna be stinky boy with no shower/bath while the wife is gone. :)

I broke my Red Metallic Reo door tracks off on the bottom :(

I am so sad but the door got stuck and wouldn't slide up or down so i applied force with a screw driver trying to pry it up some then it broke but the door works ok now. It only broke about 1/4 inch off each of the side tracks evenly. I feel so dumb!


*sigh*

Never apply force to a Reo they don't appreciate it :p

Good night reoville

Hey, Val,

i have a blood test tomorrow for diabetes. i'll be fasting, but please, please, please tell me black coffee is ok.

i don't care if you stretch the truth or even lie a little...

:)

I won't stretch the truth but google will because according to the search results it is a tie between yes and no. specially for the diabetes testing.

If the doctor says "nothing" he means nothing.
If you have a medication that is important a doctor will sometimes tell you that you can take it with a SIP of WATER before the tests, but it is best to check with the doc as each test has different requirements and some tests requirements are not as strict. Nothing does NOT mean coffee. If you throw the test off it just hurts you, not the lab and not the doctor. The lab will still take the test, the doctor will still prescribe your medications based on those tests, and YOU will now have the wrong dose.

Sorry Den. But not the day for it. I haven't had solid food since Sunday morning because I have been ill, and dragged my ... in there today for tests and the damn lab was closed so I have to fast again tonight. :mad:

It is true, but it isn't a very good idea. It is only good for 10 miles and how many peeps live within 10 miles of a distribution center? And imagine if the little drone drops it on someone's head 8-o

I would think the liability issues will ground the poor drone idea, but it sure was great publicity.

I guess we shall have to wait a few years to see how it unfolds.

had many planes land on your head Val :lol: hows about Satellites ? you should see how many satellites are floating around up there. I'd bet Amazon will simply have many smaller distribution centres when the time comes yes many people won't have access but imagine all those people in the cities. Im sure Scott would let them land on his rooftop or his deck if he has one :)

Hey Den!!!! Look what I found!

‘Jurassic Park’ For Real? Dino-Chicken Experiment Underway | NextMovie
"Shortly after production wrapped on "Jurassic Park," Horner and some grad students tried extracting some DNA from a T-Rex specimen, which (thankfully) didn't go so well. Now, 20 years later, Horner believes the easiest way to bring dinosaurs back to life is to create a dino-chicken ... a chicken that's been retrofitted to look like a dinosaur, so to speak.
Horner's process, which involves genetically modifying chicken eggs, is an accelerated form of breeding that targets DNA instead of reproduction. Chickens, like all birds, are already equipped with dinosaur DNA, which makes them ideal subjects for the experiment which looks to resurrect dinosaur-era traits to a modern animal."
-------
They are gonna reverse engineer DNA from a chicken back to a dinosaur! Dino-chickens! I bet that helps you sleep at night ;)

And if you read it again in the morning, you won't need any stinkin' coffee to get your blood going!

Not only that...just imagine how many people would be taking pot shots at these for fun to see if they can take them out of the air? Easy pickens for theifs in my opinion. Honestly, I just don't think it is a good move. If I had an option, I would opt for UPS, FedEx or USPS to deliver my orders.

Good evening, everyone :)

Evening Lisa :) I'd wager most of the peeps taking potshots at them couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with a Scattergun :lol: Hows about the untrustworthy carriers ?? I'm certain some of my lost packages are due to theft from the carriers themselves
