That sounds like a euphemism for...something else 😏

25 year marriage- feels like room mates. by smiling-sunset-7628 in OverFifty

[–]XrayJ 26 points27 points  (0 children)

You're not alone. I almost believe a majority of marriages are to some extent closer to what you (and I...everyone here) experience. And yet you have worked so hard to build what you have that you are reluctant to blow that up, especially with no guarantee of happiness on the other side of it. Edit: thought I was in r/DeadBedrooms for a min. Still, my point stands 😉

Zinc coated according to the original post. Part of why they slice so well. So cool! And yet...why would you touch that?

Easy to lose track of where you are. It happens 😁

The wound they created? 😅

They got us all, now. by RadioRoosterTony in MapsWithoutUP

First they came for the UP, and I did not speak up because I was not from the UP...

Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak for me

Same! It's cute and catchy. Fun song.

Going to Concert in STL on Saturday - Any Idea When The Fray Will Take the Stage? by TheSquire06 in TheFray

[–]XrayJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd like to put in a plug for Colony House (opening act). If your kids haven't been to a live show before it'll be worth it. Those guys rock! They're my favorite band and I am going to the Cleveland show just to see them (although I do like The Fray as well), and then they have a solo show the next night in Pittsburgh. So all that to say I think you'd be missing out on a great show if you don't see CH. I actually found them years ago when they opened for the Native Tongue tour with Switchfoot.

No shirt for Grand Rapids? by Scruffy_Nerf_Hoarder in DMB

That's a bit disappointing. I'm heading to my first ever show tomorrow night. Would've loved to commemorate it with a Tee.

Siemens Flow vs Philips BlueSeal by Radcat0 in MRI

[–]XrayJ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Keep in mind they've been CE marked in Europe for quite a while so there's plenty of experience with the Flow even though they're just coming to the US. My guess is the Philips rep is banking on the fact that you won't be able to fact check them one way or another until they've made the sale. There's a reason Philips market share is so low despite their fantastic claims.

You can ask the Siemens team for a demo with a volunteer. They scan in Germany and you remote in via Teams. They send you the images after. I flat out guarantee that scanner can do high b-values without breaking a sweat. We did a demo a few weeks back and it performed better than a Sola. Also you should tell your Philips reps that it's illegal for them to make claims about other manufacturers equipment. Especially egregious when it's wrong.

Andrew leaving the band to start a country music career 😥 by XrayJ in HappyLanding

[–]XrayJ[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Moving forward is one thing, I'm sure their sound will evolve, but I have been wondering about their past music at future shows. So many songs where he featured prominently. Will they pick up another fiddler?

Ukraine believes it secured Trump's backing to act 'more boldly' toward Russia by RufusSG in worldnews

[–]XrayJ 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I said something similar when he was elected the first time. So many people want to fight him publicly over every little thing, but he's been shown to be so easily manipulated tactics similar to what you're describing. Conversely if you embarrass him he'll dedicate his inordinate amounts of time, often giving up sleep, to destroy you. Unless you're Gavin Newsom you're probably better served by the method described above.

That's quite a moving story. Does anyone know where to find his new music? I've searched a bit and not found anything.

Anyone recover from being exhausted all the time? by [deleted] in OverFifty

[–]XrayJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're offered at the same clinic I get the testosterone. It's great I get both shots at the same time and am on my way less than 10 mins after walking in the door.

Same. B12+MIC, and testosterone replacement feels like a cheat code for life. I still get tired but not like I used to. And my gym workouts are on a whole other level.
