That’s the problem. We have printed them out before, then physically handed them to the PCP or ER doc to have them placed in their record. I wouldn’t be surprised if they basically shred the thing as soon as we’re out the door. It’s gotten to the point where I’ve basically lost faith in the system entirely. When your…

I have an interesting question. Do any of these federal statutes help you if you’re trying to transfer in existing records and your current provider won’t accept them?

When I first heard about the possible a few weeks ago, it was on a podcast of a radio show. An interesting position was floated. That while Egypt would get the ships if sold, it was Saudi Arabia and UAE who was doing the bankrolling. Not the Russians. Basically this would give the Arab League the beginnings of its own…

Serious question. One I have thought about for a long time. Instead of fighting over who should be allowed to get a marriage license, why not abolish the requirement for marriage licenses at the federal level?

Better idea. Kickstarter to give it to these guys. If I can’t have my jet pack, I’ll settle for a mech with a Saleen engine built in Texas.

So much for trying to be Fresh AND Easy....while I go before the pun firing squad, some entertainment...

Technically, no you don't need a move away order. My children were covered in CA under an order stating they couldn't be moved from one county to another without notice and agreement between both parents, with notification and approval of a court first. Mine were moved out of state in defiance of that - and the judge…

The people of Round Mountain, CA (pop 155) would disagree that your town counts as small.

No, you're right about Modesto. I've been through both cities a lot over the years, and had family there. Modesto seems to have only gotten worse every time I drive through it. Which certainly sucks - I have some good memories of the place as a teen. I kinda miss the way it used to be.

In theory yes. Reality, there have been several attempts to circumvent the policy over the decades. I've read of a few - imagine how many don't make it to any media outside China.

From the earlier article, technically the policy still remains in place. There was an exception to the One Child Policy, in that you could have two if both parents were only children. The resolution just changes that exception to only require one parent be an only child.

One of the docs I used to see in the service had an xray picture on his wall. Not at all out of place until you seriously looked at it. One day after already having been at that base for months I looked and had to ask. He was doing an ER rotation and one young man came in complaining of stomach cramps. Eventually an…

Slightly off topic - how hard is it to get started in Unity vice C++ or C#?

The 6 foot and change female linebacker at my second high school (I moved a lot) more than could. It was hilarious watching her nail running backs, receivers, and QBs. Then seeing their heads explode later when they realized they'd been sacked by a girl. Off the field she was one of the nicest people you could meet.…

If this was a matter of course on that ship...you really don't want to know.

I think I've seen this thing before as well. I just can't remember the name of the show.

My guess is you can't send him back. After disposing of their telephone sanitizers, the planet likely got wiped out via a disease contracted from a dirty handset.... /channeling Doug Adams

The genius should come to SoCal some time. Two words - hotel kids. In LA there's a restaurant called Brunos. Between openings they bus in hotel kids to make sure they get at least one good meal a day. They feed 750 kids a night now. From what I understand that doesn't even put a dent in the number - it's estimated…

The latest expansion came out on the 5th. So far the setting's good, but a lot doesn't make sense. I get that the last several novels - I haven't gotten my hands on them yet - were a reboot of the setting. But the redo of the magic system and other character related stuff doesn't work for me. It seems as though the…
