Ha! Looks like my alarm cat #1

I think they’re claw covers, to protect furniture without the rather unpleasant declawing.

Wut? Didn’t even know those things existed. They look like they may keep the claws extended at all times though. I wonder if it is safe in the long run.

I wish it were smart enough to maintain radar lock on a designated contact, such as AG, so I could always see how far back she is. And yes, I'd like it projected to a HUD on my visor.

Don’t know about radar lock, but if it had a radar activated camera when contact gets within threshold distance, it would be a mean device.

Kudos, but telemedicine counts too.

How common was that in those days? Did you then commute to the city?

I paid 25 years of dues in the clinic, but now the patients are safe from me for the most part.

Ugh.

Similarly, I paid 30 years of dues in the lab, and now the lab is safe from me. I have minions to do my bidding these days.

Also have a Shimano BB coming so I can move the 6800 crank to the Lynskey. I may just die from fun.

I did not ride today. I was getting worn down, I guess from upping my distance too quickly. Nasty sore throat last night and this morning. That olde adage, Feed a cold; Starve a fever is so true. I ate continually throughout the day, as I always do when I have a cold. Thing is, I didn't know I had a cold

So do I, but they're cognitive neuroscience postdocs and students and we do real things to real humans, so I still have to be fairly nearby.

This is why I prefer to stand at the top of the pipeline and drop things in. It's up to other people to figure out whether they're safe.

Why? I don't feel like eating much when sick. [though I haven't been regular sick in years]

I just do. When I'm sick with no fever, I am famished.

Very wise. Early in my career, I was involved in causing five seizures in healthy volunteers. We are still using the same technique today, but more carefully.

Not so much wisdom as that my mind is bent that way, but yeah.

Yikes!

I usually have to remind myself to eat, or after a while when my blood sugar drops from lack of food, I feel REALLY sick. Then I eat, and half of that goes away.

I owned a Serotta Colorado. The thing beat the ever-loving heck out of me.

I've heard that before from Colorado owners. My Seven is pretty harsh, too. Not the worst I've had but sometimes I want to try something else.
