RE: Microsoft Store - Breaks Out into Song
Give me a break. Idiocy in motion.
I wonder how many prospective customers just walked on by after seeing this Dance Fever contest?
I wonder what the 50 new Apple stores will have as attractions, employees in dancing Apple costumes?
:B Apple's grand opening is at the end of the month. They remodeled and enlarged their store.

RE: Video, Could you do this job?
I showed this to my husband and he said it's part of the job you do on transmission lines. My son was offered training on transmission lines and he decided to stay on the distribution side. I'm kind of happy he didn't take it. I do worry about him.

RE: Blood Test Mania!!!
Today I took Charlie to the Vet. for an ear infection.
OMG ......The cost .... $295.33
Office visit $63.00
1 ear Swab & Microscopic Exam $60.00
1 ear cleaning $ 18.40
1 junior Early Detection Plan includes blood test $65.00 which I opt for because the blood test was $40.00 This didn't have anything to do with the ears, but needed it.
Mometomax Ointment 30 gm $72.19
Triz-Edta Ear Drops $16.74
Tomorrow our puppy Katie goes in for shots and a checkup. What an expensive week.
Hi Happytraveler,
Here is a link to Otomax. I don't know if it is the same or similar to the Mometomax Ointment 30gm that you mentioned above, but this is the product that I use on my Cocker Spaniel's. Cocker's are notorious for ear infections due to their droopy long ears.
This web site also sells a generic version of Otomax and I purchased some recently. I have not tried it out as yet because I still have the remaining Otomax on hand.
Sure seems to me that you should track right back into that Vet's office, with a copy of this web page, and ask for a refund (or at least a discount from their price). Good Luck...
http://www.discountpetdrugs.com/ot30gmsoin.html
Regards,
Dawn
PS: You will have to ask your Vet to give you a prescription, of course. My Vet was reluctant at first, but after a few years they do so very willingly...:B
The thing is if you need the medication right away, you have no choice and If it was a on going medication I probably would try to get it cheaper. I know Charlie wasn't feeling very well and as always he tries to put on a good front. He has a yeast infection. Do you need prescription for Otomax and does it cover yeast infections, but then you really don't know what kind of infection unless it's tested.

RE: Digital Video Camcorder??
Get a DVD camcorder. Records directly to DVD. Just pop it into your DVD player.
I don't know too much about camcorders. Do you pop in a new DVD every time you record something new.

RE: Santa's Sleigh Cocktail
Resurrected for the Holidays:
Posted: 12/16/07 04:19pm
I made these for the last 2 years. They are great.
Santa's Sleigh Cocktail
White sugar crystals, preferably coarse
2 cups store-bought eggnog, chilled
1/2 cup brandy
1/2 cup amaretto liqueur
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 scoops vanilla ice cream
4 cinnamon sticks
Dampen the rims of 4 martini glasses and then line the rims with sugar crystals.
Combine eggnog, brandy, amaretto, nutmeg, and ice cream in a blender; process until smooth.
Pour mixture into martini glasses and garnish each glass with a whole cinnamon stick.
Enjoy!
Sounds great. I'll have to march myself down to Costco and buy those cinnamon sticks in the big container.

Digital Video Camcorder??
I don't know much about camcorders......What's a good digital video camera that's not too expensive. My son has a video camera right now, but it's like one of the first one's that came out. For some reason they have to take it to Costco to get it converted to a DVD and it does get expensive. I guess right now their looking at a Sony for about $300.00.

RE: anal glands
The glands naturally express during bowel functions, but some dogs create a build-up and require "help".
I haven't yet encountered a groomer who expresses the glands fully. Most groomers express externally by pinching and pulling the glands - not a fully process if the dog isn't emptying naturally. A vet does an internal probing and cleaning. Adding extra fiber to the diet can help, but it isn't enough for some dogs.
Excess licking of the area indicate it's time. Eventually, you'll know your dogs requirements.
That's exactly what a groomer told me. They don't go the full process as what a vet. would do.
