No? Let me shed some light. Trying to save some money (right) I ordered ink cartridges from this company. 1st, they charged my credit card twice but I didn't get the order. According to their call sorter, this happens frequently as it has it's own extension. Took roughly 2 wks to get the refund (I had to call them again) and almost that much longer to get the order. The order was for a Dell and a Lexmark printer. The Dell cartridges "worked" but the Lexmark didn't. I called again. They gave me all these instructions on how to make them work. I tried them all with no success. I called again. They told me to send the Lexmark cartridges back and they would give me a refund. Roughly another 2 wks or so I got a partial refund. They charged me a 20% restocking charge. I called again. They said they had no record of my calls and I had not been authorized to return the cartridges. Overall 6-7 wks, multiple calls and 1/2 full (Dell) cartridges. FYI--SAVE YOURSELF THE GRIEF! Call someone else.

My brother, sister and I have hypertension which is being controlled by medication. Our Mother and Father both died from strokes. His was ischemic and hers was a bleed. Our eldest brother had a stroke (ischemic) and bilateral carotid endartorectomys before he died of pancreatic cancer. My sister has had one fairly severe stroke (a bleed) which left substantial residual. Overall, not a good familial history. My brother has recently been prescribed Lisinopril in addition to Adican. His pharmacist didn't think this was appropriate. Can anyone shed some light on the efficacy of this?

My problems all revolve around internet exployer. If I log on to yahoo only, I'm fine. With IE I get dozens of popups and popunders and then it shuts down due to buffer overload. You know, I can run the programs, but the "stuff" behind the programs has me clueless. Please help!!!

Whoever said life begins at 40 was smoking crack. It began ok - to fall apart. I realize that's a negative statement for a Christian, but I'm now 54 and I hate getting old. To make it worse, I've gained a lot of weight. I can't do the things I used to be able to do. Even silly things like jumping on the trampoline with the grandkids or teaching my grandsons to stand on their heads like I taught my sons and granddaughters. Things hurt more. Places hurt more. I was once described as a formidable woman. I fear that woman is gone. My transition through Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs is not progressing well. Self actualization seems completely out of reach. With regard to death, I know to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. That's good. It's the time from now till then. Any words of wisdom out there?
