Take what ever your doctor or “health care” provider says with a solid dose skepticism. If you hear “new drug or product” flags should go up, most any run of the mill illness can be treated by a generic at pennies on the dollar compared to new Many times deadly or side effect laden drugs. Most illness’ are virus and will not be treated with abx, most salves or creams are a sham, you can make your own out of natural ingredients like Vaseline for ointments or mineral oils for susp. Or what have you. Check your bills, I know first hand thay doctors will out right lie about what was done to you in order to bill for a higher reimbursement. Biggest Tip – common sense – most people are out to get every dime they can with most of the work on your part !!!?!
Hey Sue. thanks for this. Handy information/.
Being the daughter of a USMC father, we had to move alot and I learned well. People tell me I’m very good at packing their gift items.

In Germany there are two prices for food in a eating place.
One price if you sit at a table and the other if you stand at a counter. I found that weird to say the least.
Susan, I wonder if that has anything to do with whether one is using a waiter/waitress while sitting at a table as opposed to ordering for oneself at a counter?

99% of the time when a stereo stops putting out sound but otherwise looks normal, check for a “TAPE” or “TAPE MONITOR” switch/button. I see it every week.
I took Henry’s advice and unplugged my battery on my laptop and then hold down the start button for 5 seconds. Plugged it back in afterwards and it worked as good as any “clean up” tool I’ve ever used.
Hey Millard. when you pull the battery is your puter on or off?
It was off. Better get yourself a set of very small screw drivers to work with. Be careful though, my battery slid out the side so look it over good before you get the hammer and chisel out! 😆
Are you talking about a desk top or lap top?
Mine is a laptop. With a desktop without a battery, I don’t suppose it would hurt if you turned it off, unplug it from any power source, and “accidently” hold the start button down for 5 seconds.
cool ive got a laptop and the battery snaps out so so no need for a screw driver right?
Take the battery out, hold your finger on the start button for 5 seconds, while you take a sip of coffee with your other hand, reinstall the battery and see if does the same for you.
Yeah that drains the capacitors that hold a charge. That allows the IC chip sets to DE-energize all the way. Sometimes ‘the little switches’ in them get stuck.
I have an amplifier here that if you unplug it it continues to play music for nearly a minuet at volume. That’s because I use good ‘over-sized’ caps. Caps might be the most unreliable part in all electronics.
Thanks for the input Nottoobitter.
