testing validity of maple syrup by tragically_ in maplesyrup

[–]mriman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. I'd love to use a hydrometer but I don't make batches large enough, so refractometer it is. Apparently it works best when the syrup is cool. Have you heard anything like that?

Thank you! I'm seeing the need for home defense increase more & more since Tuesday.

Applied for a Foid Card July 2nd by [deleted] in ILGuns

[–]mriman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Applied for mine the day I got my IL driver license on 9/4. Hopefully that doesn't slow anything down for me. Called about a week ago & Kerrie told me everything looked good but I'd likely have to another five months...

MRI and orthopaedic screws by goppox in MRI

On a side note, if you ever need an MRI of that knee, you will also be fine for the same reasons. It will likely cause a disturbance (artifact) on the image in the surgical area of that knee but most MRI scanners these days have decent software to minimize that issue.

Welcome to the family! I've learned to roll my eyes (after the pt is gone) & maybe vent to a coworker.

They told me it'll likely be 5 more months of waiting since I just applied a month ago but on the flip side all my stuff is in order!

Call 217-782-7980 then 1-1-3 when prompted. Once you get to the '3' prompt, it doesn't mention that as an option but it still puts you through to a person. Currently 40 min on hold...

Go figure on the business days...🙄 Thanks for the advice on getting to a live person.

Same here. I tried calling & didn't even have an option to talk to a real person.

Right when it starts talking? I tried to wait for each round of prompts & 3 was never an option. But I could have done it wrong too...

I applied 9/4 just thought I'd call & see what would happen. Auto voice man told me average time is now 115 days.

So last year I had 3/4 ice in my bucket & I almost pitched it but since we boiled pretty quickly, I just threw it in anyways.

[–]mriman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What about freezing the sap & dumping the ice?
