Re: [TMIC] I have great news
I received a new wheelchair today I assume you mean a powered wheelchair. Is it center wheel drive with casters front and back or drive only at front and/or back? Alton

[TMIC] From a firend of mine- watch out for bogus gas pumps
found this to be amazing , since only a few weeks ago I filled my little ford Taurus. After I had filled it , which I shrugged it off, I told my son and the store clerk that I just pumped more gas into my car than it holds, also the store clerk ignored my comment. This is true. It happened to them three weeks ago somewhere in Pomona on their way to Pechanga. The pump should have totaled @ $68.00 (and change). When the receipt was printed, and she checked it was $ 77.00 (and change). She got mad, went inside the store, asked for a calculator and let them do the math. They refunded her. She told them that if they cheat, they had better make it right. Normally, her husband would skip printing the receipt. Not her... We saw on the news the other night that this is happening everywhere. Brian pumped exactly one gallon of gas. The price did not match the cost of one gallon. It was higher. He went inside and complained, got a refund. There is also a number on each pump that you can call and complain. This is a true story, so read it carefully. On April 24, 2008, I stopped at a BP gas station in GA. My truck's gas gauge was on 1/4 of a tank. I use the mid-grade, which was priced at $3.71 per gallon. When my tank is at this point, it takes somewhere around 14 gallons to fill it up. When the pump showed 14 gallons had been pumped, I began to slow it down. Then, to my surprise, it went to 15, then 16. I even looked under my truck to see if it was being spilled. It was not. Then it showed 17 gallons on the pump. It stopped at 18 gallons. This was very strange to me, since my truck has only an 18 gallon tank. I went on my way a little confused, then on the evening news I heard a report that 1 out of 4 gas stations had calibrated their pumps to show more gas had been pumped than a person actually got. Here is how to check a pump to see if you are getting the right amount: Whichever grade you are using, put EXACTLY 10 GALLONS in your tank, and then look at the dollar amount. If the dollar amount is not EXACTLY 10 times the price of the fuel you have chosen, then the pumps are rigged. In my case, as I said, the mid-grade was $3.71 9/10 per gallon; my dollar amount for 10 gallons should have been $37.19. I wish I had checked the pump. It doesn't matter where you pump gas...please check the 10 gallon price. If you do find a station that is cheating, contact the state Agriculture Department, and direct your comments to the Commissioner...the info is on the gas pumps. **Looking for simple solutions to your real-life financial challenges?

[TMIC] Re: FLU SEASON APPROACHING... VITAMIN D....
Rita ~ I would highly recommend that children take additional vitamin D. I have five grandchildren... they all take D.and they're all healthy. My daughter-in-law runs a day care in her home three of my grandchildren live there and they don't get sick like the other kids. ~ Lynn Thanks Lynn, Worth trying as i don't get the flu shot. Does anyone know if it is safe for kids to take additional vitamin D? Rita On 9/15/2008 1:19 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Everyone ~ When I was writing to Linda this morning about her sinuses it reminded me of something that I want to let you all know.. Most people think they get sick with colds and flu in the winter because of the cold weather. Nothing could be further from the truth. The reason people get sick more often in the winter is because they don't get the usual 15-30 minutes of sunshine a day, (without sunscreen...!), that our bodies need to produce the Vitamin D we need to avoid getting sick. The solution..take a vitamin D3 tablet every day from Fall into late Spring everyone around you will be dropping down sick and you should be just fine. At the very least, if you do get sick , you won't be as sick as everyone else. The reason I said to skip that vaccine is quite simple. It DOESN'T WORK. The formula they have made this year for the flu vaccine was made from the flu strain that went around last year. Flu germs mutate every year. So... since this years flu strain has mutated.what good does it do to get a vaccine to protect you from last years flu strain?? Doesn't make sense when you think about it now does it...? Okay.take your Vitamin D3 and call me in the morning. :-) Hugs, Lynn **Looking for simple solutions to your real-life financial challenges?
