I think I'm partial to #5 and will let a gallon or two of my pricey urine sit for year so as to make munitions for bullets. <br /><br />(It's too bad the Mac people had to choose the apple and not the tomato. Then Vanderpoolred could be "Roma". Fits fer some reason, not sure why... I'll write Mr. Jobs a letter. I'm sure he still has a say here and there.)rabidrunnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02348612727159450417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6876706998822123927.post-72316003046595131352009-07-08T18:03:10.762-07:002009-07-08T18:03:10.762-07:00thanks for the clarification. i need to pick a doc...thanks for the clarification. i need to pick a doc with our new insurance so any help i can get is much needed. thanks again!Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09010348098934844983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6876706998822123927.post-65123654002931115202009-07-08T11:51:25.812-07:002009-07-08T11:51:25.812-07:00This is an awfully lay differentiaton, but as best...This is an awfully lay differentiaton, but as best I can explain it, an FP (sometimes called a GP, though they are a little different and are an outdated specialty) is a doctor for the whole family, including kids and pregnant ladies (they can deliver babies), and an Internist is a doctor with additional specialized training pertaining to only adults. They tend to refer out more; for example they won't deliver your baby--they'll send you to an OB/GYN. I choose an internist because I like specialized care. She is my primary doc, so I can see her when I'm sick, but when it comes to serious issues, she will send me to another specialist, whereas an FP is often more inclined to try to take care of issues themselves.<br /><br />P.S. Everyone: Vanderpoolred is my husband. We can't just let him hide out under a pseudonym stolen from some obscure apple variety. (Apple--get it? We are such Apple freaks that he chose to name his online identity after an apple variety in honor of his love for the Mac fruit.)Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17993427346019681523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6876706998822123927.post-31423670000290091232009-07-08T10:03:40.959-07:002009-07-08T10:03:40.959-07:00um, this is probably a silly question, but what...um, this is probably a silly question, but what's the difference between an internist and just a regular general practitioner? is it the same thing?

It forces you to note what you consume and make sure you're balanced. It makes you conscious of your diet rather than just shoving in crap.repliderium.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01451646126768211862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6876706998822123927.post-33278642826139970592009-07-08T09:51:47.400-07:002009-07-08T09:51:47.400-07:00Rabid, don’t knock the value of highly supplemente...Rabid, don’t knock the value of highly supplemented urine. Perhaps there’s a business opportunity in selling the stuff. Here are just a few of the practical uses for the golden stream: <br /><br />http://purpleslinky.com/trivia/science/eight-brilliant-uses-for-urine/<br /><br />Perhaps you could even package it as a specialty ORGANIC product. Just think of the shelf space you could command at Whole Foods with your exclusive Splash of Rabid.<br /><br />It seems so wasteful to flush such a valuable natural resource-- “what with the economy and all” (www.remarksfromsparks.com/2009/03/nature-of-economics.html).Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03391064843092528282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6876706998822123927.post-47017663728083533902009-07-08T09:23:26.443-07:002009-07-08T09:23:26.443-07:00Congrats on the healthy blood.
