    You can at least take solace in the fact that it had a good run… 14 years is an amazing length of time for a TV show!

    That’s way, way more than Firefly or Journeyman got. :(

    Well, I mean, this isn’t a file-sharing site, so… :shrug:

    Well I bailed at the end of season 9 I felt the show was going on too long even then
    Didn't even know you could share files with others here, only do attachments.

    Sometimes the package carrier doesn't mark a delivery as being delivered. I wonder how many people use that as an excuse to con the store and ask for a replacement order.

    Probably more then we'd like to think. But having said that, I have had parcels arrive on the doorstep yet a day after it still shows as "on the way" and not marked as being delivered. I think people suck and take advantage of that.

    Oh, they pushed it back, the woman who runs Wil Lands, Wild Horses just posted yesterday that we have four more days to get comments in, and she's also doing petition on Change.org.

    Well... I work in a hospital, & it finally happened. Some clueless dolt was ambiently playing Mantovani's "Charmaine" throughout the halls today, AKA the song that plays throughout One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest in the mental ward. Given the context, maybe NOT the best choice of background music imho guy. :guffaw:

    I just came home from visiting mum in hospital from her car accident. I don't know what the hell they did yesterday but I have questions.
    Is Ketamine ever prescribed for pain management? She has 6 fractured ribs and a fractured sternum.

    Anyway I don't know what they gave her but most of last night and today she's been very agitated and she wasn't like that before when I visited so I'm not sure what is going on and I couldn't handle it today and could only stay for a little while, it was just too upsetting

    So sorry to hear you both are having that experience.
    Recently, Ketamine Therapy has been used in the US for depression and PTSD, and also for pain maintenance. But, of course, I am no doctor. The behavior she is exhibiting could be Meds-related, or equally (?) likely, stress and pain related.

    Try to reach a balance and be there for her as best you can. I am sure you will. Continued healing and good wishes to you both!

    Know your limits and push when you need to. If shorter, more frequent visits are in order, so be it. I am sure it is incredibly stressful...

    We say 'puh-khan' around here, mainly because 'pee-can' sounds like a portable container for doing a number 1. :lol:
