re: Holy cow! After 5pm and I don’t think a single fuel price bitch thread was made today

Just paid $5.79/gal today in Kauai. Dang it! Thankfully only 2.5 gallons.

Seriously though, I could’ve videoed the flight from Midway Island to Honolulu two days ago.

I’m leaving Lihue now. I’ll video the flight and post in about six hours when we land in L.A.
I hope you're being sarcastic about your A1C.
If you can get a needle (18 gauge works great), touch it to the base of the nail over the middle of the hematoma (blood) and slowly spin it. It will slowly bore a hole to the site and release the blood, and therefore the pressure. As soon as the blood starts to come out, stop the spinning.

Yellow jackets. Nothing like having them evil bastards come out of the ground while you're bush hogging. An old tractor won't out run them.
Twice I've run over them with a push mower and the foot race commenced. They won.
One time hit a rotten downed tree while bush hogging right next to a creek with a high bank. My fight or flight was kicking in while realizing the tractor may go over the bank.
They won...13 times including 3 stings to my face.

re: 5-month old bird flew 8,425 miles from Alaska to Australia with zero stops over 11 days

Reminds me of the poem by D.H. Lawrence that is quoted at the end of G..I. Jane:
I never saw a wild thing sorry for itself.
A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough without ever having felt sorry for itself.
Animals are amazing creatures and they will endure whatever they have to in order to survive.

My family had a property for decades and then I bought it and had it for 13 years. It wasn't until year 8 or 9 of my ownership when I noticed some wild grapes.
I would have to race the deer that were eating them. I would check the vines every day and night when I came in from work. Never got more than about a gallon or two.
I've been talking about trying to grow some grapes on my new property, but the deer are even more active on it.
My mom has made muscadine jelly a few times and even won an award for it at the Tangipahoa Parish Fair.

I'll look into that.

Sling TV - anyone get it to work with a VPN?
Posted by Volt on 9/4/26 at 7:57 pm
I'm in a pickle.
I am working on Midway Island for three more weeks and need to watch the LSU games. I would get the one day package from Sling.
I have a ROKU stick and when I click the Sling app it states I can't use a VPN. The problem is that many streaming apps will then say I can't use their app because I'm traveling or out of the country.
Any ideas or suggestions?
I'm also considering updating to ESPN unlimited, but I may be in the same boat as far as connecting.

We know understand KemoSabe
He pulled the trigger with his middle finger.
His left hand was even gripping the gun.
Looks like he's never fired a gun before.
That's all I got.

I had a patient about three moths ago that came to me for eye irritation. I check her BP with a machine and it wouldn't pick it up. I then took it manually and realized something was wrong. Listened to her heart and realized she was in afib (atrial fibrillation).
When I told her that and that the rate was very high, she said "I got an apple watch and it says my heart rate is always good." She then said she thinks she needs to change the settings on the watch to make it detect it.
She tapped a few times on the watch and at first it said it was a normal heart rate. Then about 10 seconds later the phone buzzed, she checked it, and it told her she was in afib.
I put her on the monitor and she was running 90s-160s afib.
Long story short, an apple watch can/may detect afib.

Are we talking Walking Dead zombies or World War Z zombies?

Not to mention that for 1000s of years, humans all over the world lived most of their lives killing or being killed.
Can you imagine trying to sleep knowing that other humans all around you wanted what was yours and that meant they wanted to kill you?
The more I read about histories of cultures and countries it blows my mind how much fighting and killing took place.
I sleep good at night and I am very thankful of that.
