Sometimes the "different" thanksgivings are the most fun. One year we went to Denny's and I swear it was a blast.
Thanks for the help with the up and down pain. I have another pain doc apt with also an rsd specialist next Tue so please prey for me he is not like the others. I know pain at any age is horrible but I see my friends running around so active and carefree and I'm so frustrated. I wouldn't wish this on anyone but I just want to be involved in a young persons life.
Dahlek I agree about finding ways to lift our spirits. Its the plus for me being in ca as I love the outside. Thanks for reminding me
Now this won't be for me even before my pain a mall on the day after Thanksgiving was not happening. Anyone do or able to go for the Friday shopping?I just saw on tv Kohls opens at 4
Have a good day

Default Well

Bob is off doing some tests,so Ryan has a pager around his neck,so Bob
told us all to leave last night,big nurse while eating candy,picked up the
big bowl of candy threw us out..Bob talked first to Dr. Amy ( daughter-
in-law} she came out and said let's go. Now it was time to,go to my brother Steve the oldest and close to hospital,well sorta.

So Msry can cook,married to brother1, so can Son and wife, Both brothers and I eat. My mom and bio Dad came to parting of ways before I was born.
Steve was born to bio Dad's 1st wife,he went back to her. So we take out
pictures and gab. gab well alot. Now i get very little sleep,never could..
My Steve and Mary put me in there big bed,fear of falling,kindness,bathroom,so on. She has a blue box NightWave, it projects a blue light on your darkened bedroom ceiling to encourage sleep. My brothers can't sleep...Anywho,the glow expands and shrinks more and more slowly,your breathing slows too,which makes you sleepy.. Well why not,
it works for me went right out woke up watched out I went...It's a 3 foot circle of blue light you watch it appear and slowly fade over and over the ceiling..Me in a bed,amazing. Now it's called Nighrwave that's all I know so far.

My friend George who loves Superman,once said,Mulling over a problem at night makes you less likely to solve it than sleeping on it..Now never worded for me. .J sound familar.

Mrs D my son's and friends collect rocks ,only one we brought home on a flatback of truck.. Most of the smaller ones have been polished,with means layers of dirt removed,but some left alone,some have been cracked open,
they sparkle,shine,they would greet you coming up my front stair's and
porch. Bob collects flat marble rocks,by the river front,he want's to do the front of fire place,too many bricks...I collect bricks,old one;s they are
believe are not a hot item...They must be covered and hidden..Copper out of
ouses has for years been choice of Drug money.

Well St Louis became the 2nd leading murder capital,so here I am,1st Detroit
there I was...Well on way to hospital to sit with Bob,he out ,hope Drs. are
not..Ryan and Amy willl take me we will,listen and yes it's still scary...

If your going out of town take care,see ya's in awhile,,Thanks for caring,
Hugs to all..Sue

Sue:

I love this Nightwave thing that shines a blue thing on the ceiling. I have never been able to sleep my entire life (through the night I mean).

I take something at bed time and I sleep for 8 hours. It's like a gift.

But if I could stop taking that, well, that would be preferable.

I'm going to google Nightwave.

Happy Turkey Day.

Melody

Default You have never seen this before in your life!!

This has to be a first. I accidentally happened upon this while watching an old 'YOU ASKED FOR IT". It seems that in 1919 a man invented a musical instrument that no one touches. It actually is a machine that has two antennaes. It uses magnetic electric polarity (or some such stuff). But no one touches it and it uses the magnetic resistance to make the sound. It's a rare art form and a very very rare musical instrument.

The gentlemen in this video is actually using his hands (and not touching anything) and the various positioning of his hands, makes the two antennaes react and that's what produces the sound. You can google it on youtube. But here....for your listening pleasure. is an instrument known as THE THEREMIN.

Now tell me you've seen THIS ONE BEFORE???

Here you go.....................

You have just seen an instrument from the early 1900's (way before technology), and this instrument, well no one touches it, and it makes beautiful music, and you think of Callouses??

Now that is funny.

If you youtube it, you'll find various artists take this very seriously. I had never heard of this in my entire life?? I wonder what other lost treasures from the past, are floating around on youtube??

Default I've actually--

--read a lot about this in the past, and heard a number of radio reports on it as well.

It seems this instrument was used quite extensively in horror and science fiction movies of the 1950's and 1960's to produce that eerie "woo-ing" sound in background music.

So THAT'S how they got the background noises (eeerilly done), in all those 1950's serials??

Last night I saw an old time black and white vintage thing. It was 12 chapters. I've only seen chapter one, but it's fascinating. It's called the Lost City. And it seems they played these serials when you went to the movies and had to wait for the movie to begin, they would play these.

This Lost City was made in 1935. That's 73 or so years ago, right?? Well, it's science fiction, taking place in Africa, where some Atlantis type of ruler is making giants out of the natives, using an enlarging machine. And the special effects are right out of TESLA, believe me.

If you want to have a laugh, take a walk back in time 73 years ago and just look at all the cheesy special effect. But the electricity Tesla thing was amazing for 73 years ago.

Here's the link.

and by the way, I am learning how to do the google video and youtube thing. Unfortunately, I can't upload to Youtube. I have no idea why, I'm discussing this over at the Computer forums.

But if you want to have a good laugh, I found a video that I made over the summer and I'm wearing a simple black top, and I was about to go out to the store, when Alan said "where do you think you are going wearing that thing?" Well, I never got out of the house. I made this video to show his sister. She laughed her head off. Videos don't come that great on the upload, I am still learning how to do this. It is not that simple. Young people today know all about bits and bytes, and resolution, and changing this. I am still learning. Let me know if this comes out at your end.
