    I didn't say I've been using it the longest, just the most. As Bill Maher says, "I can't prove it, I just know that it's true."

    I'll take that bet. I've been using the Peristeen since 2011 having first purchased it from a supplier in Australia, which is pre-FDA approval. And I...

    Thanks healthman, I really appreciate that. There are a lot of nice wall stickers on that site.

    Hey Juke here are the flower wall stickers you were asking about. I think they will look good on your room walls.

    Juke, besides the minutes I added to your phone on Tue, I had also added 20 bucks on 1/8/2010. If it didn't take, I can email you the receipt I got from tracfone and you can go yell at them.

    Dan, I don't seem to have had and change in my acct. status since the end of Sept. so I don't know what happened there. Was kind of hoping you'd take the hint, cheapskate that I am.
    Thanks.

    I met a youngster in my neighborhood living in a house on the next block who's paying the same rent I am and just lost a roommate. I still need to talk to the owner/manager and see what kind of deposit she wants (it's the biggest bedroom that's empty); how much my 1/3rd of the utilities works out to; etc.; etc.. But I might have to curtail my laptop purchase if the new rental works out. Decisions, decisions,.....decisions.

    Hi Juke I just wanted to let you know that I've missed your craziness while I've been on the down low. Hope everything is ducky in your world.

    Okay Juke....don't be a butt!!! I know you are good at it but.....

    I honestly don't remember wishing you to be banned but I may have.

    I try not to hold grudges. Sometimes you do piss me off but I try not to remember every time you have when I log in to CCC.

    I hope you are doing well.
