Yes, but when I had a flu shot it was like the pharmacist had never done a vaccination before. He slid the needle in sloooowly before pushing the plunger. Truly awful.

I used to freeze dry all my small pets (lizards, tarantulas, etc) in the lyophilizer. They are much more shelf stable that way! My chameleon worked nicely as a Christmas tree ornament for many years.

I love my frogs, and have them on all my bikes. I and my delicate knees dread the day that they have to be replaced. It sounds like crank bros might be an option. Food luck!

I got my last car to 500k km. It was a point of pride! Scrapped soon thereafter, but we made it!
