This thread updates frequently. Since I have nothing to really say, no time to read all of the posts, and no desire to use this as a great post farming exercise I just click it and then go to a different part of the forum to clear the notification. When anyone needs anything from me yall can PM me and I will respond as quickly as I can.

Til then, I'll be in my bat cave.... *dramatic cape twirl, exit.*

*peeks back inside*

And/or the BST and New Posts area.

For some reason I'm not getting updates on my subscriptions. Including this one.

If you're talking about your emails, you aren't supposed to get an email for every post. Quote from email:

There may also be other replies, but you will not receive any more notifications until you visit the forum again.

Interesting. I guess this will be my post of the day, just to make sure I'm not missing something I should see.

I get no updates EVER. This forum has it's flaws and some are impossible to correct. I visit almost everyday and this forum "still" has my last visit as 10-18-2010!!!. I always take things at face value

Yea. I've been getting them most of the time. And if you want to see the last time you were here you have to log out when you're done at the end of the day. Otherwise, it looks like you've been on constantly for as long as the last time you logged out. Try it. You'll see that it will show the last time you were here as the next time you log in.

I'm getting at least one email a day, if not five or six it seems. Maybe they're sending them all to me:)

Had another killer night last night. Something is definitely in the air. This is usually our slowest time of the year for inpatient admissions and we've already surpassed the first two weeks of January in number of admits...in April! I'm glad I'm not on tonight with the whole blood moon thing! It's a scientific fact that ER's are more busy on full moons than they are on non full moon nights. But I diverge.....anyways, no sleep at all last night and I'm barely awake enough to write this now. I'm gonna try to go to bed now and wake up sometimes around noon and then finish packing the box. I should get it off today but there is a slight chance I could hit snooze until 5pm. Doubtful, but it's happened before. In that case it will go out Tuesday at the latest. I've put some stuff in small zip locks, enough for everyone to have one. That's not everything in the box, just a few things I wanted everyone to have that's participating. It's a small part of things. So, when you get the box I would ask that you just take one of these small ziplock bags and pass the rest down the line. If you leave one write on the list you didn't take one and that way someone else could take two if they wanted to. Not gonna say what's inside, you'll have to wait. I think most of what's in each bag will be appreciated. I hope so at least, well see.

I'm also sending some stuff for Livingloud to remove so he will have some space for his stuff as well.

Lastly, I'm putting in a nice piece of paper about 22x17", folded. My hopes are that everyone participating will autograph it, put their "mark" on it one way or another with a saying, picture, or just their signature. When I get it back I am going to copy it onto another large poster sized paper with the muted LPM logo in the background and the title "LPM Wandering box 2014" or something similar. Kinda corny I know but it should turn out pretty cool and I will mail a copy to everyone who wants one once the box returns to me in a couple months or so. I'll pick up the cost on this, all you have to do is put your "mark" somewhere on the paper (with your screen name) and put it back in the box. When it's done and ready to be mailed to everyone I will post it here and everyone wanting one can PM me with their mailing address and I will mail them out. Personally it makes participating a little more fun and rewarding I think. If you think this is too goofy then tell me. It seemed like there was interest in signing the box earlier but the box may not survive 17 posts so this is an alternative.

Any last requests for box contents, say it now! Soon to be sealed shut and mailed....

Hi JM,

Will there be a small notebook in the box, for people to indicate what they put in and what they take out? I think you mentioned this before, but wasn't sure.

Yeah, that's the idea. Will see how it works, not critical but thought it might be interesting. I could see where some may want to remain anonymous. But yes, I'm putting a small notebook inside.

Everything sounds good Jeff :yh:

Jeff dont get stressed out. Get some rest. Another day or two is not a problem.

Took your advice. Box will go out tomorrow. Problem wasn't finding enough stuff, it was deciding what to put in that might be unique enough for all you vets to have an interest in.

I'm dogged still. Went back to sleep for another four hours after fiddling with the box for an hour. Although I'm exhaughsted mentally my body is wired out. Weird I couldn't sleep anymore today. Now I'll be up most of the night unless I can find some samples of The drug with the purple butterfly in the ad. Think I have some stashed somewhere. I'm on the fence about taking any. I really want to get up and see the blood moon tonight. I'm going to try to make some cool laser pictures with the blood moon in the background. They say this will be one of the best and most complete eclipses we've had in 30 years or something like that. I've seen them before but they say this one will be epic. Not only will it be epic in a visual sense, it is also epic in the fact it is the first of a tetrad of blood moons that happen to fall on the exact dates of four Jewish holidays. Passover then Tabernacles then again next year it will fall on these two again. They say the last three times this happened something really important occured with the Jewish people or nation. 1492-1493 was the Edict of Expulsion from Spain where Isabella decreed all Jews must leave Spain in like 14 days or convert to Roman Catholicism. Then in 1948-1949 the nation of Israel was established by the UN, the only time in history a nation was born in a single day. Then again in 1967-1968 was the 6 Day War where Israel took back Jerusalem. Not sure what this tetrad holds for Israel but I can't imagine it would spell much for peace in the region given the track record of the last three tetrads. I'm not Jewish but I can't help but find itinteresting. Lots of media attention on this these days.

Anyways, as long as the world doesn't end tonight at 2:06 am in the totality phase of this eclipse, I will get this box out tomorrow for certain. It's pretty much ready to go.

Oh yeah, Adam....your decals arrived today. They are really cool. Better than I expected. Exactly like the pictures too. Was there any particular one that was specially made for someone? I wouldn't want to take that one. I haven't decided yet but I am certainly leaning towards the "recovering laser addict" one. Problem is it would be a lie to display that in public. I am in now way in recovery from this addiction. More like the final throws of a death grip on me, full blown relapse.....

Cheers everyone!
JM

JM, you must be talking about Lunesta. I prefer the older cheaper ones, like temazepam. I wish I could see the full lunar eclipse from where I'm at, but it is too cloudy and it is western Washington, so I will miss out. The last one I saw was about 1966. Stayed up all night to watch it. Found the eclipse very impressive, but the waiting for it was not worth the effort. Hope you get some awesome laser pictures.
