Medical Visit to California This week I took my wife to La Jolla California for Stem Cell treatment for her Multiple Sclerosis. It is kind of an experimental treatment but we hope it works. Before the "visit" began we spoke to the nurses a few times there on the phone and they were so nice I...

Thanks guys. Altohombre, that drug Ocrevus was approved while we were in California. We have been waiting for it for a couple of years as we were following it's progress and wanted to get my wife on it as soon as it became available. Now we can't try it because it may damage the stem cells...

We just got back from Southern California a few minutes ago. I took my wife there for experimental stem cell treatment for her MS. We won't know if the treatment works for maybe 9 months but she feels great. We are very hopeful for the outcome of this as we heard some great stories from other...

Here is the porch as it is today. I have a planter over the broken steps until the cement dries. I also built that big rock in the foreground, it is hollow. When that Japanese red maple has leaves on it you can only see a portion of it.

Today my wife went to the drug store and as she went down the porch stairs I saw that a few of the bricks on the top step were loose. Great, now I need to fix that so my wife of the mail "Lady" don't break their neck. I put those bricks on there about 20 years ago and I didn't do a real great...

This new project is about half finished. It still needs the upper structure which will hold the "pull chain" that is coming from a hole in the bottle. That is not the correct bulb which will be a long thin one and it needs paint and antiquing. I think it will come out "interesting" if nothing...

I took a new video just now. I'm on a roll

And I appreciate your concerns Altohombre. :D Thank you for posting and you are correct. If one of these lamps caught fire, I would be in trouble, :eek: This is the light I built that is over my 6' long tank. The LEDs are mounted on copper tubing and it is a water cooled fixture with a...

I have been an A Rated, Master, Commercial/Industrial Electrician in Manhattan for 40 years, now retired. There is no higher credentials for electrician than I have. I lit up the top of the Empire State building, re built all the machine rooms in the Chrysler Building, installed the lightning...

I am almost finished with another SteamPunk lamp. I know I keep saying this, but this new one is my favorite so far. It seems they are all my favorite as I am building them. I found out that the art show they will be in is a month long. During the show people can bid on the items and buy...

For about six bucks in Staples I bought a box of 4 ink refills. It comes with a hypodermic needle and instructions on how to fill your cartridges. I really now only refill the black as I found the other colors were not exactly what they are supposed to look like but great for normal color...

I just took this video which came out pretty good. The mandarins won't let me take closeups so they are not in it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r7dKzh6ZOYs&feature=youtu.be

For a few days I couldn't find any of my anemone crabs, and I have 5 of them. I searched behind rocks with a flashlight, crawled under and to the back of the tank with a mirror, called out their name etc. Not one. But this morning before the lights came on I see four of them on the same...

I am sure it is. He probably deserved it by sueing the wrong guy :rolleyes:

Queen anthius eating clams, worms and Mysis. Lousy video and colors are washed out so I will also add a better video just eating baby brine shrimp. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxQaV01x_M8&feature=youtu.be https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=frNlgC3GN3c

Even if I wanted to sue the gym, I wouldn't drink water from a urinal. I would rather the lawyer did :D Especially those lawyers on that commercial that say "If you have ever been injured anywhere, doing anything you can sue someone and make big bucks for doing nothing. If you fall on the ice...

Today after breakfast at a diner my wife and I went to the gym. Our regular gym is closed this week because they are doing a water change in the pool. I think they got algae, cyano or flatworms, I really don't know but the town lets us go to another gym if ours is closed. This other gym is...

I just thought of this and figured it may be interesting. When we were first married my tank was a 40 gallon which was considered pretty big then. I had the tank before we were married so naturally the tank came along with me when my wife and I got our first apartment. That apartment was on the...

Very nice picture. :biggrin:

I just finished a new one which I really like. The glass is two liquor bottles cut in half and the necks also cut off. I am not crazy about those bottles so am drinking heavily to get two more, nice looking bottles. I hope my liver holds out. The part where the antique radio switch is in is a...
