Oxy mapp, yup. Works well. The gas is a total ripoff though.

Good news compared to what it could have been. Be patient I know it's hard.
I followed Cheryl to the golf course to watch her play. I figured out a half swing didn't hurt...I know. :eek:
We played nine holes, and I shot one over...she was shaking her head. :D

I absolutely suck at not "pushing through the pain" and just sucking it up.... especially with strains and inflammation.... if it's going to be broke then it needs to be #@$₩ BROKE...

Hope you can find that Zen spot in your mind and let things heal

Finding Zen is like working with resistors...

Ohm... Ohm... Ohm.... :D

Strange, I get in trouble all the time too. Marie shakes her head as well. But then she would electrical tape a severed arm back on and still make me sit while she helps.

Your a smart guy, you think a muffler might get hotter then a propane torch? Then you cannot attach it using that method. Oxy /ace is needed. IMO.

Kind of what I was thinking. But I also have a habit of over thinking at times, which leads to stupid things
 
Well, my patio block lifter ias a fail. I think i know what it needs. Longer bars past the pivot and smaller tabs to grab the blocks.
I gave up, decided a heating pad was a better idea. That seems to be working.

Not really, you get to take home only $630 million. I guess it would wet the bottom of the tank…

Take home 6.3M with a 1B jackpot? that is a lot of taxes! and you are right, just a splash. Paid $133.50 to fill up to go to doc today

Actually , I hear it is less than that. After taxes, and if you take the full cash, it's only about 313 million. But that's ok. I can live with that..:lol:

Well no. if you read the fine print, the jackpot taken in lump sum accounts for X percentage of the money the lottery has on hand from ticket sales. In this case, roughly 630 million, you would pay taxes on that 630 million, not the 1 billion. Which is about 40-45 percent depending on your location. Some states also charge income taxes in addition to it. So move to Florida before you claim the prize

if you take the 10 year or whatever number of years it is annuity, you get the full 1 billion by the end of it. Minus yearly taxes. But the tax rate is actually less, so you’d save more from taxes. The pay out schedule is weird, it’s something like 30 percent the first year, than 50k a month until it’s paid out fully.

Yep. And I would never tell a f-ing soul except those who absolutely had to know. IE whatever law firm i claim it thru, lottery and tax officials. I wouldn’t even tell my kids.
