- Fred Stiening said Brian called me on the phone and we chatted about life and future plans
- haiti222 said Prayers to both of you. I would echo that a skilled nursing facility is to control costs, not that you will be there forever. A cynic would say they will keep you there as long as they can get approva...
- Parrott said Yeah don’t give up Fred. Chairman is correct , skilled care, to help get you back on your feet again. Sweet potatoes, Fish ( Salmon, trout & Catfish) and salads. Mrs Parrott doesn̵...
- TheChairman said Often, they send people to short term care for cost efficiency and to free up hospital beds. Those conditions are all treatable, but will require ‘lifestyle’ changes (dietary)… which...
- Fred Stiening said I have had no contact with Brian in a long time – he may also be doing little
- TheChairman said Frankly, I don’t know if they followed up, as I never heard back. Upon reflection, I’d contact the EMS/Fire Dept first.
- TheChairman said So apparently, it can be a challenge to get their switchboard to answer if calling from outside the area… saw some complaints about this in reviews of the hospital. Yelp reviews are not very go...
- TheChairman said Wow! I guess the welfare check needed to be done at that hospital… unreal.
- Fred Stiening said I just got the food restriction lifted. I also succeeded in getting an ubereats order delivered to my room.
- Fred Stiening said I really seriously need everyone’s help. I am staying at the Carolina Medical Center Mercy hospital on Vail Avenue in Charlotte, in room 4108. Their stupidity is killing me – literally. My total cal...
- Parrott said Cool , so glad you did, Chairman. Great Idea. Best parrott
- TheChairman said Amen Parrott.
- TheChairman said Fred: I had contacted the CMPD this afternoon to request a ‘welfare check’, and if you weren’t home, assume you were at the hospital either visiting Countess or had also been admitte...
- Parrott said Oh thank you for letting us know, Fred. Ignore my email messages, we just wanted to know you were okay. Even though you aren’t okay. You are somewhere where someone is helping you and Countes...
- Fred Stiening said So I am in the hospital too We caught the same flu and both of us are in atrial defibrillation that is not tesolvong
- Parrott said Okay maybe Briand75 can help help us if he happens to look at the blog here. I be back in a short parrott
- TheChairman said To follow up: I called a land-line listed for Fred, but the line is disconnected.
- TheChairman said Nothing. We could ask police to do a ‘welfare check’, probably best if someone nearby made the call/request. Anyone close to North Carolina? I’m in Arizona.
- Parrott said Chairman : Have you heard from Fred ? CC: Have you heard anything ? anyone? I hope they are okay. Parrott
- CC1s121LrBGT said http://www.ktvu.com/news/e-scooters-being-dumped-into-oakland-s-lake-merritt “He’s concerned that that the damage is coming from the batteries in scooters… ” also earlier in the arti...
- Parrott said Holy Cow. Fred, you and Countess are in our prayers. keep us posted best Parrott
- TheChairman said Anyone home? Are you okay Fred?
- CC1s121LrBGT said Are HIV drugs still expensive? Getting the government to pay for HIV related health care costs would be a second reason.
- TheChairman said If they agreed to also arrest Hillary, Obama, Holder, Comey, Podesta, Feinstein (among others) and convict some of treason… I might understand.
- TheChairman said Sorry to hear about Countess and you. I’ll pass the news to my wife for prayer. Perhaps advise a neighbor of your situation so they can check-in occasionally.
- Fred Stiening said About the only reason that comes to mind why an HIV infected transgender person would want to join the military would be to pay for the gender reassignment surgery
- CC1s121LrBGT said Tom Petty on a Donald Trump policy http://ultimateclassicrock.com/tom-petty-american-girl-transgender/
- Fred Stiening said So the Democrats want to arrest President Trump. President Trump side stepped the attempt to appoint Pence’s chief of staff as Trump’s chief of staff. There is no provision in the Constitution for a...
- Fred Stiening said He is a character right out of Atlas Shrugged, the guy from Colorado. He acquired huge tracts of land, only to be told it was sacred Indian Land. He eventually gave up trying drill exploratory Wells...
- Parrott said On the other hand, was it bad that I watched the funeral train today ? I like trains. President Bush liked trains. I guess he knows now if there are trains in heaven. I always check that poll of t...
- Parrott said Interesting. I recognized that name, Philip Anschutz. He was that guy that bought Rio Grande Railroad in 84, then somehow parlayed his cash and Rio Grande to take over Southern Pacific in 1988. I ha...
- CC1s121LrBGT said The real problems will start when the spent batteries start showing up in landfills. The landfills will make “Love Canal” near Buffalo look quaint in comparison. With Harry Ried gone, ma...
- Fred Stiening said Now that more than a handful of subsidized electric cars are on the road, some issues are going to surface. While Tesla’s cars get around 130 mpg of electric gasoline equivalents, they are not...
- CC1s121LrBGT said I believe Tesla has been getting those checks now, from federal taxpayers like you and me. 😉
- CC1s121LrBGT said I’ll put in a plug for US Women’s Olympic basketball. I don’t even like the sport of basketball, but the US Women’s team is so far ahead of the other teams that is amazing to w...
- Parrott said I remember years ago, maybe in the 90’s, Westwood one, use to broadcast NFL football games. It wasn’t bad. Sunday and evening drives back home after a visit some or going somewhere fo...
- TheChairman said Many years ago I read that GM gets a ‘royalty’ (for lack of a better word) from every barrel of oil sold in the U.S. Not sure if it was imported, domestic, or all oil… or if the arr...
- Fred Stiening said My contacts with GM – I did contract work for Oldsmobile (Lansing Michigan) in 1982-83, Buick (Flint) 84/5 and a brief time at the GM Parts division in Schwartz Creek Michigan. I also did consu...
- Fred Stiening said A local Charlotte website reports that Famous “Wally” Amos is currently living in a one bedroom apartment in Fort Mill, just over the South Carolina state line http://www.charlottemagazine...
- Parrott said Two things tonight. First, General Motors: I listened to Rush today. he said that GM CEO mary Barra didn’t expect President Trump to tweet that GM sucks for closing plants in North America. Wh...
- Parrott said I use KIVA for the stream, for Ark midnight, its good. Stan Deyo , weather guy, inventor and geologist, will be on the second hour at 11pm eastern saturday night. He doesn’t believe in glo...
- Parrott said Ark midnight is not on during the live time of the ark, on WIQO. They had something else on. That would be a good pickup for WIQO. parrott
- Parrott said I will check tomorrow night., if they do carry John B Wells ‘Ark’. I’m starting to like the Ark pretty good. Its a pretty good substitution for ‘Spaceman’ on Saturdays....
- Fred Stiening said WIQO is the station that carries (carried?) Ark Midnight by John B Wells. The website has no useful information and the stream does not play on an Android tablet, so there is not much to do. Happy Th...
- Fred Stiening said GCN is offering its own Hour by hour feed so you don’t have to wait until the end of the fourth hour to hear the first hour http://rss.gcnlive.com/alexJones/feed.xml
- Parrott said Chris plante just said he has been picked up on WIQO in Lynchburg VA. Laura Ingraham use to have that 9am to noon slot on there. Guess they made the switch already. I listen to them sometimes, th...
- Parrott said well, Last week, WEBY Milton FL was not streaming. They are good on Sundays. They also played their home-made commercials over the stream. I looked at their website, and it was classic. Kinda 19...
