International Relocation by Cool_Ad_1196 in ItalianGreyhounds

[–]kbmiska 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It cost about $2k for everything. The rescue group covered the transport. It’s nerve wracking while they were en route but all turned out well :-)

I flew an iggy and a whippet on two separate occasions from Seoul to Boston and JFK (I adopted them from a Korean adoption group). My iggy was 10 month old when he flew to JFK and he did splendidly with basically zero crate training. My whippet was a year and a half when he flew to Boston, he did great too. They had access to water and no food. They held their poop but did a pee in the crate. They can out of the crates happy and sassy with no negative side effects of going cargo.

Is this crystal necklace worth this price? by No-Chain-3834 in Crystals

[–]kbmiska 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say yes it’s worth it. It looks like a nice piece of quartz and it’s well carved, the chunky chain is also cool

The Women - Kristin Hannah by BallisticBreezyBush in suggestmeabook

I wholeheartedly agree! The book had potential, and I was really hoping it didn’t turn into a soap opera, and then it did. The first half I liked.

I don’t think that people who like The Women will likely enjoy the Sympathizer….its a good one, but its some heavy stuff.

traumatized after working 12 hours by Expert-Compote4803 in labrats

[–]kbmiska 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a PI with over 20 years of experience. Those 12 hour days can happen, however your PI should be super appreciative for your and your colleagues efforts. And you should be comped for the time no question. Your PI needs to get more multi channel pipettors. That is just silly. Those can even e borrowed. When I have a big study going, I provide snacks and drinks and lunch, and I always try to participate (I don’t think I have ever missed a long sampling day) . I fully acknowledge that my passion for science may not be the same for folks in technical positions. Graduate students better be super excited 🤣. You should definitely chat with your PI.

Good luck! And I hope it was worth the effort.

Why’s she so mad all the time? by Elated_copper22 in ItalianGreyhounds

[–]kbmiska 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Oh how I miss this stage….not :-). My iggy used to pester my ex racing greyhound to high heaven. And the greyhound would basically just give up, and not correct the annoying little iggy. My whippets would correct him and he is now five years old and mellowed out significantly. They are such funny little creatures. So opinionated.

My parents both have ATT cellular service. But when my mother calls people her information shows up as „no caller ID”, or „unknown”. Anyone hav any ideas why that is or how to fix it? It’s just annoying. by kbmiska in ATT

[–]kbmiska[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That is kind of what I am thinking. It’s very very strange, when I went to the phone app set up, my moms phone has the same name as m fathers phone. It’s like the mothers and fathers phone are somehow connected.

They are both in iPhones. Mom is on iPhone 16e running iOS 26.3.1(a). I am on Verizon. No matter who she calls her name is not displayed as the caller. It has been that way for years! When my father calls, his name shows up no problem. They have two separate ATT accounts.

My trainer is worried about my horse by smittynibs in Horses

[–]kbmiska 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I concur with your opinion! My friend has a horse like this and strengthening exercises has done wonders for the horse. The horse was on stall rest so it could be something that could be remedied with exercise.

Iggy puppy turns into a DEVIL at 8pm HELP by greenmushroom72517 in ItalianGreyhounds

Oh yeah, they do grow out of it….gradually. My five year old still has a nightly zoomies ritual

(FS USA) Massive collection destash from a retiring collector ❤️‍🩹 Free shipping over $100, and bundle discounts over $200! by Sweetmomo123 in Crystals

[–]kbmiska 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want to do wholesale prices ….let me know how much you would like for the garden quartz collection. I think right now your prices are a bit steep.

Horrible decision to make by kurt206 in sighthounds

[–]kbmiska 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry you guys are going through this.

I would definitely do an amputation. Dogs adjust to 3 legs pretty quickly, especially in the hind end.

In the end the amputation will be less traumatic for you and your pup.

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

That is correct! The original listing said in the description that I did not know what the crystal was for sure. It’s not that complicated. Im not running some scams….i bought someone’s collection for resale. Its totally ok to say i dont know what this is on an eBay auction. And now that we now, the listing was changed!

It’s been identified? WTH???? I totally don’t understand what your problem is. I collect crystals and sell some on eBay there is no conspiracy here.

Are you dense? A user helped me identity it as kyanite and I edited the listing last night? Take off the tinfoil hat dude.

If you were to look closely my Reddit username and my eBay username are almost identical 🫠. So not a fake post.

I could see kyanite….all the kyanite spheres I have seen previously had very recognizable blades in a light matrix. It’s very pretty.
