OT September Chit Chat

[Howie]

I've got a little black cat that works for cheese, but I couldn't part with her.

I have food to last me until the 3rd. And I will get my bank statement too. I know the electric bill was high, but everyone's was. I seem to get ahead one penny, and something goes up a dollar.

I always make it, but it's getting harder. Last month, I ended up with 7 cents in my checking account. THAT'S close, but no overdraft!

[agate]

I often end up with $5 in the checking account. I'm afraid they'll close the account on me if it goes any lower. There's probably some little rule in the fine print somewhere about a minimum balance.

Nobody ever got rich having MS.

[Howie]

That's true. I'm even leaving a little sample of my brain tissue, and what do I get for it? ZILCH!

[agate]

Your brain tissue should be of great value. In fact the brain tissue of anyone with MS should be of great value.

After all, look how long it's taking them to figure anything out. They need all the MS brain tissue they can get, and maybe we just don't know our own worth, or the worth of our brain tissue.

:) I am listed as an eye and organ donor. I doubt the drug companies are going to find a cure because they are making too much money on symptom drugs and the injectables.

My Mother had willed the skin on her legs to an organization. She died at 1:30 PM and the hospital had to keep her until the doctors from that organization had to come from out of town to harvest it. It was fairly late the next day before her body went to the funeral home.

That made me think twice about organ donation. By the way I had a MRSA skin infection on my lower leg and none of the antibiotics helped. I used 100% honey and within a week it was healing over.

I slept Saturday until noon got up and ate and went back to bed at three o'clock and slept until 9 PM. I got up and got a soda and back to bed. I laid awake until 2:30 and got up to color in my coloring book. If I feel at all sleepy I will head back to bed. Jeanie:)

[Howie]

There must be a time limit on most organs left. They want the brain tissue within 4 hours of death. I guess everything begins to break down beyond that.

[agate]

It's a sad thing but often people have listed themselves as organ donors on their driver's license or some other ID card but when the person dies, nobody thinks to look at those cards until it's too late.

[Howie]

I carry my card in the clear spot in the billfold where most carry their drivers license. So if you open the billfold, that will be the first thing you see.

[SalpalSally]

Hello all. Nice to see y'all.

not typing very well today and puter slow

[Howie]

You want some extra brain tissue? I'm giving it away today, so hurry!

[Frog42]

So is she!

[Howie]

You've been missing, then show up with a BOOM!!!

[Frog42]

Been having computer problems and trying to finish setting up the new one. Still trying to run both until I'm fairly sure I have it all copied over. Long story

[Howie]

Yeah, I'm having computer trouble tonight too. Did you pass some nasty computer virus over to me? I'm sending BOTH cats to investigate.

[agate]

That sounds pretty ominous, Vicky. I'd double lock all my doors, batten down the hatches and just lie low.
