Stevens- Johnson Syndrome -rare drug reaction in which the entire body would break out in severe blisters,similar to having 2nd degree burns over entire body.
My daughter had this when she was four years old from getting a cut on her hand at recess, and then had the reaction to intravenous Benadryl in the emergency room at Children’s Hospital. It was awful and the doctors had no idea what was going on for about 3 days. we had med students in our room having a House MD show discussion about what was happening. Her Whole body puffed,
up blisters everywhere was a very, very stressful time. Full recovery about a week later. Thank God

I Wish. But, Not always. We flew business class international to Scotland/Paris and back to the States. Same price… Virgin Atlantic going there was amazing- private pods, food outstanding, stewardesses were gorgeous and friendly.
Flight back was an old delta plane, shitty first class “full recline” seats and the crew sucked.

They really had some good craft beer; jungle juice was incredible.

Texting and driving is by far a more dangerous problem these days; and it is total B/S that you can get arrested for drunk driving (and life-long implications) for having a glass of wine or two.

Whatever you do, do not avoid filing your taxes by 4/15 or file an extension by tomorrow.

Every real video of any proposed "flying car" that I have ever seen shows the thing barely hovering over the ground. I have never seen one video with a person inside of one of these things that are flying over 50 feet, or above buildings. Pipe dream.

Agreed. You can easily sell your DVC points if you no longer want them. It’s a fantastic deal if you go to Disney multiple times a year

re: Future Mardi Gras Dates for the next 6 years.
Posted by Joehat on 3/5/25 at 10:34 pm
Early Mardi Gras SUCKS!!!:
1) too cold
2) too quick after Christmas
3) people are still broke from Christmas
4) not enough time for locals to reap economic benefits (bakeries, restaurants, parties, etc.)
I know it’s based on the catholic calendar, but later in February or early March is 100x better for everyone

Madhatters was fantastic last night, the crowds were huge. Excalibur Friday night was good, but The crowds were light because it was freezing. JP Mardi Gras is fine.

I did this once when I was looking to buy a new car. I filled out a form on one of the local dealers’s websites with my contact number, and email.
I got about 20 to 30 calls in the next 2 to 3 days and about 30 emails. I was so pissed I ignored everything and ended up not getting a car for a while.

Capital One for my business. They clear all of my deposits, small or large, overnight. I've never had a problem with them so it's tough for me to leave.
