I posted when you put the pic of the runner with those funky wheels on and some reason my post didnt make it. I have a bad habit of posting and then checking another thread and not seeing if my post actually made it. I really need to shoot my computer and put it out of its misery.

So the wounds is still refusing to heal?? I had to do a open wound to heal, quite similar to what it sounds like you are going thru. It had some kind of metal powder in the patch itself if I recall right. That healed me up quick.

When I was in Germany, my surgery got infected and they could not get it to heal, when I got to Walter Reed they did the wet to dry with the metal ( not sure which type ) and it removed the infection and healed fast.

That may have been what they used on my wound. It worked great for me. I am still dealing with the tooth issue. I am starting to gradually get used to it but it will be so nice to get it healed. I am starting to wonder.

I would maybe speak with them.... Just to see maybe something crazy happened to them...? I'm not saying what you should do... Maybe you've already talked to them or something I don't know. I just know that I have had a few situations where I just could not get it done because of other things going on. I guess if its a business, unlike mine was just to help somebody else...Meh, it would just depend for me I guess. You're not me so I totally understand you have a little more insight in this problem that you're having right now! Lol.

Dragon needs boom boom!

last night was bad foot would flash burning pain then stop it'd not do anything for awhile id just get on the edge of falling asleep an wham pain for just a moment or two an gone again i after laying there for hours started punching the foot in frustration an annoyance when it did it i almost took my pocket knife an stabbed the nerve doing it it was so bad

which i know all that dont help but then it has a valid reason for the stupid it was putting me through dont it

it didnt help, kept doing it till finally had to take pain meds plus the gabapenton (which can if you become addicted kill ya) and hour later more pain meds it still did it's stupid but the gabapenton made it fade into the background as exhaustion took hold woke up at 3pm foot hurting due to the punching an hitting

havent eaten more than a banana too tired an headached gotta get up an get more ibuprofen gona go lay down missed when i normally take my other meds F it...

its the nuropathy, nerve damage done by the diabetes before it was got under control nothing can be done just have to suffer with it..

got the radio today a 2 yr old coulda packed it better and i noted as such on the EBAY feedback , insufficient packing bent the hinge pins i fixed them radio is very good so not only did they get a hit on shipping speed they got it on packing as well i mean come on! 2 sheets of newspaper barely wadded with 4 inches of space on both sides of the radio... a bit too much flopping around space to say the least the box had holes popped in the sides all around from it being a pinball inside

so it got testing precedence, got the wiring harness adapter and the radios got that all connected and then shot a testing video its not even in the dash very well will fix that tomorrow

ANNNND my pc windows is screaming at me your hard drive is failing back up now an shut down till you replace the drive HUH? where the bleep did that come from?? gah great... and a 1T drive cost is about what i spent on the radio... F u fate makes rude gesture at the sky

in progress


harness all made


first powerup got my local 70's80's90's station on it


putting my Ipod video in with a bit of flash light help for the picture


AND heres the video

Let there be tunes! Wooot! Sorry the dude didn't care for YOUR radio! Grrrr! I try to do my best for that I'm a don't understand why people are rude... Just man up and say you can or can't do it or when it would be realistically I'm so forth.... Why do they have to deflect it back onto other people? Just ridiculous. Nice work duder!

Terry that's why I love my Pioneer! They are so simple. Even the remote is very straightforward, and being Wireless it's great to just be able to chill back by the tailgate and it the remote and change the music or story or whatever it is. there are always several steps setting up audio and such, especially when you have a sub. But its pretty simple on those compared to some. I do like the double din type stuff... I just feel like it's more to go wrong? Definitely think that they are cool though. what I really like are smart unit items that you can talk to and tell them everything they do. Its so funny , I was one of the coolest dudes around in the early 90's because I had a JVC waterproof cassette player.... Hahahahaha. Of course I had a 10 disc Alpine CD changer, 2 - 12 inch subs and a really nice Nakamichi amp... that system was insane... I pretty quickly ditched the sub box and just went for one 8 inch bazooka and an extra pair of 6 by 9's... But seriously, does anybody remember those bright yellow, pull out, waterproof JVC radios? they were made for boat applications... But they worked just fine in the car.

the display is rather simple compared to the newer models it has a remote as well the higher end of these radios even connects to your phone via blue tooth and you can accept calls the radio auto mutes as you talk then comes back when done also has voice dial if your phone has that option but i didnt need all that bling
