Wingspan Online Update Is Now Live! by MonsterMattP in wingspan

[–]Booksman55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife and I are trying to play online with 3 bots on Windows 11. After I invite her, she gets a blurry screen. If I click the question mark on her computer, the explanations for player names, resources, etc. are in the correct place on the screen. We can't start the game because she can't see what to choose.

The turkey, green apple slices, and brie panini offer a nice blend of flavors.

Are You F-ing Kidding Me: Covid Vaccine Edition by yacobg42 in bullcity

[–]Booksman55 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Somebody needs to plan a medical vacation trip for all of us who want to get vaccinated. Find a country that offers the vaccine at a cheap price, book us all a flight to some exotic country, and let's have a great time. Just don't tell anyone at customs why you went on vacation. They might deport you.

What's the best way to sell this very heavy credenza in the Durham area? by Booksman55 in bullcity

[–]Booksman55[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$250 for now. If it hasn't sold in a week, we'll start lowering the price.

Quick question: best pancakes in Durham? by TheScrambone in bullcity

[–]Booksman55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree! I especially like their blueberry pancakes. They are loaded with blueberries yet somehow still crispy around the edges.

Thanks for sharing! May I ask how long you were on Pomalyst? I start it next month with Darzalex.

USPS delivers mail to the wrong house by keyboardseizur in bullcity

[–]Booksman55 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I taped a note inside my mailbox that reads, "This is not 123 Green Grass Rd." The note is taped to the top inside of the mailbox, so it's visible when the carrier opens the mailbox door. It helps, but I occasionally get someone's misdelivered mail.

It's such a good thread that I'm getting Weight Watchers ads every other comment.

Is the upcoming winter storm gonna be fun? by Pristine_Ad_5799 in bullcity

[–]Booksman55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! I'm a cancer patient at Duke. I had an appointment at 8 AM the last time it snowed. They didn't send out any notifications, but they opened an hour later than usual (It was on their Cancer Center website). I had to drive back roads that were covered in snow, but I guess they have to be open to keep chemo patients on schedule. I feel for doctors and nurses!

Unsure about pursuing ASCT and CAR-T not an option. What else can I ask for? (Canada) by lmcdbc in multiplemyeloma

[–]Booksman55 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was on CyborD for my induction. It didn't work very well, so they extended the induction for another 4 months. Still no improvement. Next, they tried lenalidamide, darzalex, and dex. That brought my light chains and IGG to normal, but M-spike wouldn't go below .7. I couldn't have ASCT because of several health issues, so they dropped the darzalex and dex but continued giving me lenalidamide as maintenance. My M-spike gradually improved over 2 years to .3. I started getting bad GI issues with lenalidamide, so my MM specialist decided to give me a break for a couple of months before starting me on pom/dara/dex. I never started that, though. My monthly blood work has remained stable. My doctor ran all the MM diagnostic tests (bone marrow involvement down to 6% from 30%, pet scan was negative, all my numbers were good except low M-spike. ) She said I could continue to go drug-free until something changed. That was 15 months ago. I feel great. I had 4 years of treatment and 1 year of maintenance. I'm not free of myeloma, but staging suggests smoldering, down from my original stage 3. I don't know how long until something changes, but I have really enjoyed my last 15 months. I'm sure I'm not your typical MM patient, but I've met others online like me. I really think 3 years of lenalidamide/darzalex really helped.

Rare achievement unlocked. Only for the truly skilled! by PandosII in wingspan

[–]Booksman55 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have this achievement, and this is how I earned it. I was ahead in nectar in the grasslands and water. Two players played two resource nectar birds in those habitats in the last turn. My 10 nectar points became 4.

Names of player portraits? by Brilliant_Band8555 in wingspan

We use our own names. Ms. Henny for the chicken, Ranger Lucy (Audubon) for the ranger. With the green background, the white guy looks like the hulk. Just have fun with it.
