I probably shouldn't do it BUTTTTT I save most of those emails and every time I get a new one I copy and paste all of the other ones individually and reply to them. I send out 15 or 20 emails a week that way, only take about 10 minutes. I use that for my aggression therapy.

Lost my Son
Hummingbird replied to naturbar's topic in Inspirational, Motivational, Prayer Requests, Etc.
Our condolences - loosing a child is one thing we shouldn't have to face Dick & Linda -
Sure - it figures, I bought Mobile 1 and filter last week for my truck ( take's 6 quarts) I don't remember how much it was but I know when I left they didn't give a whole lot of change from a $100 dollar bill. I did buy a locking gas cap for the truck as well - to my knowledge I haven't lost any gas but at $4 buck a gallon it won't surprise me if someone tries

Thanks Ruffy - I guess the whole idea was just a rant but the end result was that there was a 'fixture' installed during surgery and left in her body and we didn't know about it. btw - how's your rehab coming ? remember - no pain - no gain it helps ( a LITTLE ) to take your oxy about an hour before therapy
-
either before or long after the meds have worn off. ie: Last Saturday Linda and I went to a benefit swiss steak dinner. Saturday evening she started having pains that were thought to be indigestion and by Sunday noon they were near unbearable. ER here we come. Gall bladder and chest/shoulder pain. After 6 hours of tests and waiting she was admitted to the hospital. After a couple scans of some sort it was decided to do a cat scan. The result of all the tests was inflamed gall bladder and a wire tube running from her chest area to her abdomen. Of course there's a lot more to it but the bottom line is that the pain dissipated after 2 days and we now wonder how she made it the the airports without an international incident. The Dr's office said the Intraperitoneal 'tube' was on her chart, however it seems that nobody told either one of us about it even being installed during her ovarian cancer surgery. Now we both have concerns about it because the port for her chemo caused blood clots because it was left in too long and as everybody knows, blood clots are no fun and can be deadly. Sorry about the long verbage -

Ruffy - staples are a piece of cake. I'm pretty sure they come out a LOT easier than stitches. I had 4 invasive surgeries on my rt knee before the tkr and I'm here to tell you, staples do not require meds. One thing SURE - it's an old cliche but with regard to rehab, NO PAIN really does mean NO GAIN Good luck and don't hate your instructors, they're just trying to help you.

All In One Good or Bad ?

Windows 7 is already ancient :bang head:been around for at least 6 months - w8 should be out next week -
dunno - I got 'em also, they're in the parts drawer now. Hopefully if I ever need them I'll remember where I put 'em

Just a WILD guess but perhaps the leak is in the THROTTLE cable

Yammer Dan said You should never have shown that!!Now all the 2nd Genners will want one!!! Totally acceptable from a Venture rider with a history of 1st gens Kic said Could that be what psychologists call an inferiority complex ? inferior to what ? a newbie with a 20 + year old bike, naw
-
I find it really interesting that with less than 3 months experience on a 1st gen and absolutely NO experience on a 2nd gen that such an attitude can be expressed with such authority. Could that be what psychologists call pack mentality ?

Give me a call when you get settled, I live in Malvern, just 20 minutes from Bowerston. I'd be happy to show you a couple roads. As a matter of fact, you can get from Bowerston to the Ohio river, about 2 hours away and only see ZERO traffic lights, not to mention one of the best kept secret restaurants around. Getting back is a little different, might have 3 traffic lights to contend with.

for $100,000 it can probably come in any color

Have you looked at renting a hospital bed ?? they can't be that expensive, besides you'll most likely only need it for a couple weeks.

The Importance of Merrying a Good Speller

That's OAK street !! :rotfl: -
I guess you're probably right, what with all the upkeep and parts searching - a 1st gen probably is more expensive

How to search the forum
Hummingbird replied to Freebird's topic in Computer help and tips for using this site.
Thanks Don, wish I had known about this several years ago -
I don't jump in too often but if a 1st gen is all a person can afford, then they SHOULD be proud of it. regardless of whether they think it goes faster -

In the same context and meaning - I have a Kuhmo on my Venture but it really doesn't matter what kind of tire is on the rear for my type of riding. First off - I will probably have dry rot in it before I wear it out @ 3 to 5k a year. Secondly - I gave up the flat out blind/too fast curve riding when I quit riding in the strip pits and moved to the highway. Thirdly - see secondly - highways scare me, especially in my area. We have so many hills and curves that it's impossible to predict which curve is clear of gravel and which ones aren't - a lot of natural wash out and run off make the curves as dangerous as major highways.
