I found something called  Better Oats and really like them   but they were being discontinued at my local Stop & Shop

the good thing is that when they discontinue and items they greatly discount it so I stocked  my pantry with a 2 month supply at about a third the cost   :)

Good morning all.  I just wanted to ask for some of those famous vibes for my friend, Thelma.  Her husband, Bill, passed away last Thursday night.  I took today off so I can go to the funeral today.

I went to the viewing last night.  So sad but Thelma is a trooper and seems to be holding up.  I worry for her when this is all over and it sinks in.

Hope all is going well with all of you!

Good morning, all! I have absolutely no energy this morning. I'm suspecting it's the sleeping pills, so I think I will lay off for a few days and see if that perks me back up. The alarm went off at 6:45, and I stayed in bed until my patience wore thin, about twenty minutes ago. I'll make the bed, begin tallying my taxes, and accomplish some work here.

I have little else to report.

DR Jane, I suggest you make an appointment with your local social security office and go in to see them with your medicare questions. I still don't understand it, and when I signed with my insurance company I told them I wanted to be covered on everything beyond Medicare coverage. That was fifteen months ago. Now they're sending me notices that I am not completely covered and my feeling is, essentially, WTF? I believe it's an excuse to empty my pocket to line theirs.

Going out soon to see some laptops.  Oy!

If you're working with a Windows laptop you will most likely get Windows 8. If you find that you hate the new opening screen (which is made for a touch screen) you can look into downloading

Classic Shell (http://www.classicshell.net/)

which will allow you to modify the OS so that it opens the old way and contains a Start Button.

Most, if not all laptops sold in Best Buy, Staples or Office Depot now come with Windows 8. You can get Windows 7 if you buy on line from Dell (I don't know about the other computer manufacturers) but store-bought PCs are Windows 8

On the phone with Hewlett Packard.  Something has obviously gone awry - he thinks it's the print heads malfunctioning, so even though I had an extended warranty from Staples, that expired in August of last year.  So, new printer.  They gave me a much better deal than Staples would have, no tax, and comes with inks.  And free overnight shipping.  Pretty good.

BK, have you seen the new DVD release of the 1958 Norwegian horror film De dødes tjern (Lake of the Dead)? It is quite an enjoyable movie...very much like the B films coming out of Hollywood at that time.


Here is short clip of the film (minus the subtitels, which the dvd does have): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ePySdkSnVc




There are two DVDs avaible. One is from Sinister Cinema and is not anamorphic. The other is a region 2, which is anamorphic. I bought the Sinister Cinema DVD but will be upgrading as this is a film I will watch more than once.

New printer should be here tomorrow afternoon, with a three-year warranty.  Very nice fellow in the Philippines did the transaction and was very excited to be talking to the person who made The First Nudie Musical :)

You are WORLD FAMOUS!

DR TCB and others with back pain, this may be helpful in the future.

"Israeli researcher Sarit Sivan received the new Marie Curie Prize for developing technology that could cure a common cause of back pain: disc degeneration. Sivan and her team have developed an injectable gel that can do the job of the degenerated discs. http://bit.ly/10sTtLw"

DR TCB how is your PT going and are you continuing to improve?  I know with my PT there were times when I seemed to hit a wall and became frustrated.

DR George do you have any current photos of your key chain collection?  I seem to recall seeing some of them a long while ago.

Several years ago, I did take a picture of what I had up in my cubicle at work, but that was before I moved into my currect cubicle a couple of years ago.  I don't have as many up now as I did before.  Otherwise, I've taken pictures of individual ones, but not of the whole collection.  They're all in various boxes around my place.

I'm always seeing ads on the side of my computer about how to get a face lift without surgery.  Normally the person looks pretty good so one might be tempted to find out the secret.  This photo cracked me up.  I would say the woman looks downright scary.

Thank you all for the good wishes for Thelma.  She looks so tired but all of her family is with her.  I think once things calm down and everyone goes home she will be able to get some rest.   I told her I would be in touch in about 2 weeks so we could go out to lunch or dinner. 

It was a very nice service.  Pastor Larry came out of retirement (he had just retired in December) and did a wonderful job.

It was the first time I was in a funeral procession. I thought it was a bit scary.  I didn't like going though the red lights even though there was a police car in the intersection for us to go though.

Guess I should catch you all up.  The house still isn't done.  Nothing has happened so far. 

In the good news department, I am FINELY away from that bad supervisor at work.  I will be starting down on the 17th floor tomorrow.  Just getting away from her makes me feel like a giant stone has been taken off my chest. Just  hoping I didn't jump from the frying pan into the fire.

It is strange riding in a procession.  There must of been a lot of cars.  There were the only time I can remember doing that.

I came home early from watching my nieces because there is supposed to be freezing rain.

I spent 20 minutes listening to her read her homework. A french book with a detailed discussion of gravity. It felt way too complex for her (7). Thank goodness i had to go so her dad was able to listen to the rest.

IT was odd because the words were not hard (there were no words i did not know). But i felt like the topic was a bit too difficult for her to really grasp.

I was out of downloaded books to read except for Sherlock Holmes which I only read one at a time in-between my other books. 

I have a wish list on my Nook and it was a book I've been wanting to read so it was ok.  The books on my wish list aren't available through my library.  I'm also hoping the book through Nook, THE LIGHT BETWEEN OCEANS by ML Stedman which DR td raved about will make a good discussion book.  So far I'm enjoying it very much.

Going out soon to see some laptops.  Oy!

If you're working with a Windows laptop you will most likely get Windows 8. If you find that you hate the new opening screen (which is made for a touch screen) you can look into downloading

Classic Shell (http://www.classicshell.net/)

which will allow you to modify the OS so that it opens the old way and contains a Start Button.

Most, if not all laptops sold in Best Buy, Staples or Office Depot now come with Windows 8. You can get Windows 7 if you buy on line from Dell (I don't know about the other computer manufacturers) but store-bought PCs are Windows 8

Or you can get Retro UI http://retroui.com/ (http://retroui.com/) it was designed and released by DR Samantha's signficant other Don

Good morning all.  I just wanted to ask for some of those famous vibes for my friend, Thelma.  Her husband, Bill, passed away last Thursday night.  I took today off so I can go to the funeral today.

I went to the viewing last night.  So sad but Thelma is a trooper and seems to be holding up.  I worry for her when this is all over and it sinks in.

Hope all is going well with all of you!

Hugs.
