A fellow makes himself conspicuous when he throws soft-boiled eggs at the electric fan.
Attention Expectant Buffistas!
Do any of you glowing moms-to-be want an electric breast pump?
I have a 3-year-old Purely Yours pump that I want to give to someone who needs one. I used it for about six months; then I started working from home and did not need to pump so often.
The FDA has said that breast pumps are personal medical devices and should not be swapped -- however, the Purely Yours has a closed mechanism (unlike the Medela Pump In Style, where milk CAN get into the pump mechanism).
I can also send two sets of bottles/tubing; adapters for Avent bottles, and flexishield inserts, all of which can be boiled for sterilization. You can buy more parts online pretty easily. Also comes with free been-there-done-that nursing mom help if you want. :-)
Breast-pumping isn't fun but (like breastfeeding in general) it is really worthwhile. I did a lot of obsessive research before I chose this pump, and it was easy to use. It has a nice, unobtrusive black carrying case (not one with little teddy bears all over it, in other words), and the case has a cooler compartment, too. The Purely Yours will also run on regular batteries, which means you don't need a hugely expensive power converter.
Profile addy good. First cranky, swollen-ankled, nervous and overly planny mom-to-be to ask for it gets it.

Attention All Buffistas: We have a Proposal Up For Discussion in Lightbulbs:
"That major casting spoilers (to the main cast only, not recurring or guest), which are being advertised by Fox, the WB or ME in press advertising or their official website, are no longer spoilers, and should be discussed in the show threads. This includes cast additions or departures. The Main Cast are those characters who appear in the opening credits."
Come weigh in, starting Here!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
After Caroma posted what many found to be an inflammatory post in Natter this morning, a request was posted in bureaucracy for an official action. The required ten seconds were obtained, and an official stompy warning has been issued. The discussion begins here: Wolfram "Bureaucracy 2: Like Sartre, Only Longer" Jul 25, 2003 6:47:35 am PDT
