True. I don't like dating people who are hung up on other people. I think it's a recipe for disaster. But if he's happy, then he's happy. I'm just saying if I was him and found all this out later it would make me feel awful.

Ugh. Realizing that the person you love does not love you back is such a horrible feeling. And the moment your realize it - often before s/he has come out and said it - is such a horrible state of panic because you suddenly KNOW the breakup is coming. It's like a split second that you can feel it and then you are just…

I see what you're saying but it would seem that poor drug addicts wouldn't have $125 to spend all at once on drugs. More likely they'd have $20 to spend on something, hence why heroin and crack were so popular. That's all I'm saying. Cheap is relative to how much cash you have access to.

It's hard to know without having the audio in front of me, but considering they are on location and traveling on a boat it's not that bad or unexpected. Films have audio issues as well with much more controlled environments so like I said to another poster, I don't find the audio issues strange.

The only things about Brody being picked up on Kris' mic - I would expect a lot more background noise because they would likely have to boost the level whenever he was talking. However, his doesn't sound worse than hers - their levels sound about the same. It could be that the boat's motor is masking that a bit and…

If you read through my comments you will learn that I don't have an HR department because I'm a freelancer. Our health plan administrators have been no help and just keep telling me to talk to the online pharmacy since they administer our medication plan. The online pharmacy does not have a list of covered birth…

I realize that. That's what I meant by "they don't take the time" because it interrupts the action. Like I said, I can totally believe she has a lav on - I just didn't see it and because of the wind and her top I would have thought we would have heard the fabric rubbing against the mic. Anyway, the author just seemed…

Where's her mic though? I just didn't see it if it's there. But the dropout could totally be because her mic is the only mic. Since I didn't see a lav on Kris' clothes, I assumed they had to have a boom or a shotgun mic on the camera. Anyway, good sound guy will watch for reflections of himself and avoid them. When…

Not if they are on a boat and might go into the water. Also, attaching lavs and battery packs to bikinis is difficult. I'm just saying that listening to the audio it really just sounds like normal audio dropout from the reasons I listed. I work in post, ADR (dubbed audio) does not sound like that. They don't mix ADR…

The mic issue is not that weird considering the environment they are in. I didn't see lavs so they are likely using a boom mic which generally has to be quite close to those talking and if it's not, like it gets turned slightly away, it doesn't pick up the audio well. Also, it could be a battery pack going that caused…

Thank you for the info! Part of my problem originally was that they couldn't tell me whether or not our plan had become a part of the mandate since different plans start at different times. Another problem is that my health insurance is not who is providing my plan's drug coverage - the plan (administered by my…

That makes some sense. When I was younger heroin addicts used meth because meth was cheap and easily accessible while coke wasn't (addicts tend to dabble in a little bit of everything, I'm just talking about consistent usage). I live in NY and grew up in SF and coke has never been nor is it currently a cheap drug.…

OK, got it.

A lot of people who abuse prescription meds also don't believe that they are "using drugs" because they are using prescriptions. It's a failure to understand that they are getting high off of something related to the street drug. A lot of pill poppers don't think they can become addicted like you can with heroin or…

It could be but I doubt it. Cocaine has always been a pricier drug than crack - that's why there was such a horrific crack epidemic in the 80s. I guess it depends on your view of what is "cheap" - I would say it would have to cost no more than $10 to be a cheap high. Anyway, I looked up some DOJ stats and it looks…

The main drugs of choice are heroin and cocaine. They are easy to access, they are relatively cheap, and they ruin your life. On the recreational drug spectrum, they are not the posh ones.

My health coverage is through my union. Because we are freelancers we don't have an HR department. We have "Plan Administrators" - who I have spoken with repeatedly (who were clueless about the Obamacare BC mandate - actually said "I have never hear about that" to me just 4 months ago). We have one of the "cadillac"…

Right?! That's what I said to every person I spoke with (in total about 8 different people) and they all acted like I was fucking nuts to think my BC might be free! I'm hoping with he roll out that they will be better informed but it was horribly frustrating and disheartening. I have other friends who have had the…

Nope. Already did that and it's a no go. My health plan doesn't use my insurance company for medication benefits. My insurance company (which covers medical visits/procedures) has a very easy to find list. The health plan admins told me to ask the online pharmacy since the drug plan is through them - the online…

What about online pharmacies? My health plan requires me to use a major online pharmacy to refill ongoing prescriptions if I want any coverage (they cover one month of BC from a brick and mortar pharmacy each year). When I called to ask about my BC, the online pharmacy people wouldn't give me a list of which BC pills…
