    my wife had "water on the knees" from a bad landing...she got them x-rayed to ensure no bone breakage. Water went away after a few weeks. She swears by a homeopathic medicine called Arnica Montana. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arnica_montana it comes in a tablet form, dissolved under the tounge. good luck

    Totally agree. What ever happened to getting a parti time night job, like delivering pizzas to pay the bills. My wife teaches Yoga part time...brings in 250 a month...plenty to cover health insurance. ________________________________ Where is Darwin when you need him?

    now here is something to think about. For that usual $200 and up monthly cost to get insurance, why not invest in a rental porperty. As long as the rent plus the montly medical insurace rate comes close to the mortage, you come out ahead, being that the money you are spending actually increases with equity growth. Have a bad accident, sell a house. Instead of pissing away money, invest. This was my answer for years...I prefered to invest in myself, not insurace companies. When I got married, we started buying medical insurance. Women typically have more medical expenses...due to the increased plumbing. I personally still have a super high deductable, because I have taken the savings and invested them, to cover my ass. ________________________________ Where is Darwin when you need him?

    I am a self employed independent contractor(general contractor). We (wife and me) pay $173 a month for health insurance. We get a low monthly rate by choosing a high deductable, 5K for me, lower for her. I figure 5K on a credit card to handle a broken leg or worse is nothing. I just watch my ultralight instructor have an accident, and the helicopter ride alone was 14K. Before there was medical insurance, medical visits were far less expensive. My mother had 5 of her 8 kids with no insurance...it was low cost enough just to pay cash. We all know that the insurance industry has forced the increase in medical costs. After all, insurance companys are like lawyers, a unecessary 3rd wheel, with no direct reason to be present in the picture, just there to profit from the situation. ________________________________ Where is Darwin when you need him?

    you may have to use a bigger container as not to spill, but you could throw a small pump in the bottom, just to move the water. local big hardware store should have one, look in the tile cutter area for a replacement pump...i paid 7.99 for mine. ________________________________ Where is Darwin when you need him?

    This statement makes absolutely no sense. Zippy. Nadda. Zilch. Yup. He can obviously buy them with his charming personality and good looks. uh, yes, i have friends due to my charming personallity, but not becasue of my looks. i do believe you have to pay to join a frat, right? anyway, frats are lame, plain and simple. ________________________________ Where is Darwin when you need him?

    maybe they are trying to limit your forward speed, therefore getting less water up your nose when you hit the water. not quite sure if this helps the water up the butt problem though. you did say..."humor me..." ________________________________ Where is Darwin when you need him?

    Jeremy O has some good advice. I also agree with knowing how a tank works, and it the biological cycle. Get some good books, make friends and a small knowledgeble fish store...people at the big chains tend not to be true hobiest at heart. Start with strong fish, like damsels. Read, read, read....learn learn learn. ________________________________ Where is Darwin when you need him?

    I worked in a tropical fish store for 5 years or so, with over 250 tanks, salt and fresh. Salt is not any "harder" just more money. Salt water fish, except for a few, are caught live, from the ocean, are more colorful, so, cost more money. Now, being that these fish are taken from the ocean, and essetially put in a closet, some get stressed, and die sooner than they should. Also, although illegal, some catchers use cianide to stun the fish. This damages the digestive tract, and although the fish will eat, it will starve to death. If you can afford it, go with a "wet/dry" filter system. Basically the water trickles over filter media where bacteria breakdown waste in the water, and amonia gets passed off as a gas. And, on the tank, bigger is always better. And, as with skydiving, maintance is the key to survival. Schedule a day to do it weekly or monthly, depending on tank load and size. ________________________________ Where is Darwin when you need him?
