    I presume that is shorthand for "deposit", and that can be handled with copious amounts of tp.

     

    Eventually....:)

    Just curious. What did you use to "roll" the dice?

     

    Was it your hands? Or was it a cup or something like they use at a Casino?

     

    There's a reason they don't let you "roll" the dice from your hand. Some people (like myself) apparently hold or throw the dice a certain way (this can be a very natural thing - unpracticed). I am one of those people.

     

    A long time ago my best friend said I couldn't roll doubles more than 2x in a row. I promptly proved him wrong, and did it way more then 2x. Also, I seem to have a knack for doing the same thing with my heart meds. When taking them out of the container and "drop" them on the counter very frequently they land/stand on edge. Kind of pisses me off actually. Because then they tend to roll away & I have to catch them before they hit the floor so my dog doesn't get them. OTOH, IF I deliberately tried to drop them on edge it seems to never work. LOL Go figure.

    It was our hands.

  2. Well, I signed up for one of those Dual plans (United Healthcare taking over for Medicare). So far it looks like they have coverage than just Medicare by itself.  Medicare was telling me the only way they will cover my insulin is if I get and insulin pump. I told them No Way! I had a neighbor friend that was elderly and had a pump. The pump malfunctioned and it put all of it's reservoir into her and killed her.

     

    With the United plan, I can do the same regiment as before AND with better insulin.

    What spoils it for me is that it says audio-technica instead Technics.

     

    I'd rather it be done to an AT that to do it to a Technics. Save the Technics to play more vinyl.

    I could be wrong, so consider it worth the money you paid me.  

     

    If a provider accepts Medicaid, I don't think you can be billed for a copay.  So, the best thing would be to find a provider who accepts Medicaid and ask what they can supply. 

     

    It should be that easy.  Good luck!

     

    I've been going to the same doctor using Medicaid just fine. And I'm happy with her. The last time I saw her (every 3-months) I asked if she takes Medicare too. The answer was "yes".

  5. O.K., first off I'm really frustrated!!

     

    I have had Type I Diabetes for 27-years (thanks mom and dad). I inject myself 4X per day. I REFUSE to use an insulin pump (why? A neighbor lady of mine had one and it malfunctioned resulting in her death).

    Because of the Diabetes (IDDM), neuropathy and occasional glucose drops I am on Social Security Disability for 5-years. I've almost died 3X because of it in the last 6-years, but my girlfriend/wife saved my life each time. I've been on Medicaid for (going on) 5-years now and I am now being forced to go on Medicare (Parts A & B). Part D was not  1.) not financially possible since SS is all I get for an income, and 2.) the plans cost more than the other prescription pills I take. From what I've read on AARP (not a member) a person can have both Medicaid AND Medicare at the same time till they're 65-years old.

     

    Medicare will only pay for my insulin and the delivery method IF I get an insulin pump. Where Medicaid paid for everything (vials, syringes, etc.). SO if I refuse to get the insulin pump can I just continue to get the vials and inject myself as I'm doing now? And it gets billed to Medicaid instead of doing it Medicare's way? I'm told in the Medicare hand book I received to today that Medicaid is a secondary payer for what Medicare won't pay.

     

    I've tried calling both Medicare and Medicaid but I either get conflicting answers OR just flat out WRONG answers. It seems like both are like the IRS where they are not required to give correct answers. Or should I just blindly trust both organizations NOT to kill me?

     

    I need to talk to someone that is not connected to either organization (i.e.- trying to sell me their services)

    BTW - I live in Ohio

    these 2   horns are  early castings of the k-600 horn  , most likely from the  late 60's  .

    Yea, I'd want to know if these are aluminum (early) or composite. But the composites were/are probably K601's.
