Yikes!! LOOK what they DID to my poor Prius!!

wow! what are those, mini cookies?

i had to have my biceps tendon reattached. what did they do for yours?

 

Almost. For the first time ever, we have an inside look at Fred’s House of Mouse-sized Pancakes

 

Yeah put 1/4" galvanized steel mesh into the snorkel opening. Drill a few small holes around the perimeter, secure it with copper wire twist-ties or similar.

 

are we back to the free lunch thread?

 

I may faint...

 

I just came back to.

That’s why I never could be a doc.

 

So, sorry, but I am confused. What really is that stuff in your filter? I thought we were going to see mice poop or something.

 

wow, that is brutal. i'm amazed they haven't come up with plate material that won't be rejected.

i have a bunch of anchors and screws. not sure what they re made of, they don't set off the airport monitor.

 

Dog food.

 

So, are all the mice dead yet? Also are you using glue traps? Those seem to be the only ones that work for me.

 

WOW! Just, WOW! I remember the agony of getting a titanium plate in my wrist and those nine screws. That was excruciating. I can't imagine how much more your whole arm would hurt. Is your plate titanium? I don't think I ever heard of that being rejected.

BTW, I hope you saved pictures of the x-rays. Mine are really cool, so your's would be spectacular. Not fun now, but great for getting sympathy from friends and family.

 

Is saving X-rays like a thing?

lol I can see it for a gig, astronomer gets an X-ray on his pelvis, the doctor shows it to him and says, "I can see Uranus from here"

 

For me, it was a sliced nerve bundle controlling (among other things), two portions of the tricep, leaving me with just a working 'monocep'. It doesn't cover the full movement range of a whole tricep bundle, nor provide the full strength over any portion.

While the brain and remaining muscle have long since compensated enough for ordinary daily function, there are certain movements where that arm has essentially zero strength. If I have to defend myself in a street fight, any adversary who knows this weakness could own me in an instant.

I did, when the first biopsy by needle aspiration triggered a vasovagal response, before the doc knew the tumor was on a nerve bundle. It was the next biopsy that did the real damage.

Oh, you mean cyber's description? That wasn't much better.

I've since had the same type tumor on another nerve bundle. But this was treated far better, producing no loss of muscle control and only a very small patch of sensory loss. And neither treatment involved long or deep cuts or added hardware.

 

It's not wombat poop, or it would be cubical. Gotta stay with fecal angle here because these medical discussions make me cringe.

==
Get it? Only square poop has fecal angles

??

 

We watched a series, The Secret Life of Wombats, learned gems like that. Very calming show; they gave all the wombats names, sort of Winnie the Pooh.

 

Caught several nature programs where the animals were. The one about a lionness was depressing. Another pride killed her mate. Cape buffalo drove off/killed her cub. She had the leave to another one crying after a hyena broke its back.

Gee, thanks for the reminder.
