Well I had a pretty big one. The original estimate was 7mm but after they got ahold of it and the pieces that used to be a part of it the new estimate was 9-11mm. That's right, we're talking about a centimeter here. That's big.

I think that may have been it. I didn't think he was going to yank the plug until 2:00 our time. Huh

Attention -- PF is moving to a new server!

Written by Lance Brown

Monday, 19 September 2005

Over the next day or few, we will be moving the site to a new web host. This will involve a few changes which may cause some temporary disruption of service.

Namely:

The DNS information-- the info telling the rest of the Internet where our new location is --takes soome time to spread its way throughout the 'Net. As a result, the address "peoplesforum.com" (including addresses with more things tacked on the end) may not work right for you for a period of time.

I will post a transition address here once it is available. This address should work during the move.

Images stored on our site (i.e., attachments) may not display correctly for a time.

There may be other problems, as we get situated at our new home. I will post updates and information about the move here as necessary/available.

Thanks, man. Now can you help me figure out why I can't get to Coolertimes? I get there for about 2 seconds, then my browser closes. Just wondered if you had any suggestions for me

What browser do you use?

I use Internet Explorer at work, and Firefox at home, and I never have any trouble.

Hes giving you shit Beksie. There is nothing wrong with your Comcast :smile:. He's just saying that because I'm a network analyst there.

I have checked it on Netscape/Firefox as well as IE from all over the place.

Not sure what the issue could be.

I don't think anyone else has had any issues. I will dig around a bit more though.

Maybe you can't get onto Coolertimes, becksie, because you're a dirty communist.

Becksie,

My guess it's in your options regarding java or whatever applets are running there. I don't have any problem getting there and I use IE almost all the time. Check that and check the level of security your browser is set at. Mine is set at Medium and then customized.

Hope that helps.

I use adblock with firefox, one of the best ad blockers out there IMHO. I've used it to block a few complete websites that I didn't want to see stuff from, nor be tracked visiting (I know a couple paranoid website owners, and would rather not be blamed for their bandwidth issues)

bad news again...

the removal of the stent was much more painful than expected. on top of that they needed to do it twice because the first time the grabber device didn't work. I'll just say I'm still in pain from that.

also the doctor is a bit baffled at my constant pain and is starting to worry it wasn't the stent causing the pain. I may have a problem in my uretor and I don't know what that means or entails. he said if the pain came back to give him a call. the kidney area pain came back on the way home, and even though I took 2 percoset I can still feel it. I'm gonna have them a call right now but at this point I am really depressed about the whole thing and actually pretty scared for the first time. thank you guys for the support I really appreciate it. :grin:

tim_the_hunter

just talked to the doc, I guess if the pain persists the next half day-day I have to have another stent put in. which means, another surgery and of course another removal. thanks for the support again. sorry for the gross details I'll try and be more obscure next time.
