'Get It Done'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I like SQL a lot, but my boss is better at it than I am. So he does most of the SQL stuff and I mostly do interface stuff (HTML or MS Access).
I've been fascinated by databases since '91, when I used a flat-file database and was amazed that I could search a 30 MB database (on an indexed field) in a fraction of a second on an old Zeos 286.
So they're harrassing the retiree who sheltered some children during the shootings.
Dear lord, some people just really suck.
Yep, vision should keep getting better. Might not make it to 20/20 in the bad eye, but should get close. Since surgery was less than 24 hours ago, it's pretty awesome!
Yay meara! You need to rewrite the theme song to The Six Million Dollar Man and sing it every morning.
We can rebuild her. We have the technology.
My mom had the same procedure done a couple of years ago to remove cataracts, and she was amazed at how good her vision was afterward.
folks,
how do I know if I have the flu or not?
(in other words, I am not feeling great, but I'm not sure if this is a bad cold or the flu!)
meara, medicine is amazing.
My dad has been having eye surgery recently, but I'm convinced that everything he's doing is to prep for debilitation and I don't want to ask questions.
I am at a power user level with SQL, as opposed to developer, at least here. The number of tables and schemas they need to string together to get any decent answer for anything is kinda scary, and puts me in my place.
how do I know if I have the flu or not?
I think by level of fever -- at least, the one time I'm sure I had the flu, the doctor said no, because my fever wasn't high enough. (Although who can tell what my fever ever would have been, since I was downing advil like it was my job.)
I don't have a fever though. At least I haven't had one the last 2 days I checked it. I suppose I could have had one before.
I think something is wrong with my body temperature because I have literally never had a fever as an adult. I swear I FEEL like I have a fever when my temp is 99 degrees, and when I take my temp at normal (non-sick days) it is about 96 degrees, but my doctor just tells me that 99 degrees is not a fever.
