re: U-Cart Concrete

Posted by swm0105 on 2/27/17 at 12:29 pm

Just order a short load from a concrete supplier ($300), rent a georgia buggy ($150) and knock it out in an hour. Otherwise break your back with quickcrete. I spoke to the owner of U-cart not long ago and he indicated that he shut the business down. I don't recall his reasoning, but his pric...

re: Any adults ever have mono?

I had mono back in 2013, it wasn't too bad but the Guillain Barre that it transformed into was a real bitch. Good luck!...

I've updated to Firefox 44.0.2 and ever since then I keep getting a notification that Javascript must be enabled to view the content of the webpage. I've looked as far as I'm capable and can't seem to figure this issue out. Can anyone assist with this problem of mine?...

Outdoor Kitchen A/V

Posted by swm0105 on 3/31/15 at 8:44 am

I am in the process of building an outdoor kitchen at my house and would like to know the best way to connect an outdoor TV to an indoor receiver. The wire run will be approximately 40 feet. I've read a bit online that there could be some signal loss with that long of HDMI cabling - is this ...

I just walked out my back door and the course is drying out nicely. We got just a light sprinkle yesterday afternoon but they're calling for another slight chance of rain later today. All in all, the course is as good as it could be for this time of year. Try not to hit my house when you tee ...

Thanks for the replies! We won a trip there staying at either (or both) at the Fairmont Hamilton or Southampton. I'm planning on getting a little golf in, but outside of that, we're leaning on you. ...

re: Women who don't take the husbands last name?

Posted by swm0105 on 7/18/14 at 1:48 am

My wife kept her last name only as it reads on her medical license (md) to not confuse all of the credentialing requirements, etc. From a personal standpoint she took my last name as it reads on her drivers license. It really makes no difference whatsoever UNTIL I'm called "Mr. Insert her la...

You can Google it [link=(http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guillain–Barré_syndrome)]Guillian-Barre Syndrome[/link] I apparently had Mono for a few weeks leading up to the GBS starting. In my case as my immune system fought the Mono, it became confused and ultimately it attacked the insulation of my...

re: How would you deal with it if you woke up crippled tomorrow?

Posted by swm0105 on 7/18/14 at 1:11 am

Coping with the physical loses was one challenge, but the mental aspect was beyond words. By comparison I would equate it to being buried alive. Although I was paralyzed, I could still feel the pain of having every nerve attacked by my own immune system. My brain was unaffected so I could hear t...

Just over a year ago, July 13, 2013, I was admitted to the ICU with a severe case of guillain-barre syndrome. I went from being perfectly healthy on a Wednesday and by Saturday I was paralyzed from the knees down. By the middle of the following week I was on a ventilator. Ultimately I was paralyzed...
