    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Actually, that is not true. Hospitals cannot give out information regarding patients. HIPAA rules are enforced by the Department of Health & Human Services, and can (in some cases) result in criminal charges.

You mean when we call and ask if someone was hospitalized (searching for them for example) they can't tell us?

They also can't tell us that the person was discharged and the date?
 
I dont know if its the same everywhere...But when my cousin ran away a couple years back,the hospital told my aunt they would have notified them if she was there for an emergency...But since she was just "looking" for her,they would need to go to the police department and file a missing persons report,and bring a copy of that back to them before they would tell them any info...

Yes they cannot and will not tell you ANYTHING unless you have a power of attorney for the patient who was admitted even if it's family.

And if you don't have power of attorney you have to prove relation usually before they will tell you anything or release any information. Yes it's the HIPPA laws.

My BAD then. I have walked into hospitals and asked which room was so-and-so located and gotten the information without hassle.


Glad to be corrected.

No worries. ;) I know hospitals still give out information even though it's against the law so to speak. They get tattled on though and it's bad bad bad. I know because I've seen it. :eek:
 
I have to admit, when I first read this thread I thought $25 was the cost of shipping alone, and was a little surprised you sent $25 total for the frogs + shipping. But then I figured the seller would have said something if that was incorrect...? I've just never heard of an overnight shipment for less than $20!

Wonder what happened to those frogs if they really were shipped somewhere? :(

I just want to add this PM that i got today.



1. Did you get the 2nd one?

2. You said in the PM on 11-09-2009, 05:33 PM. Maybe you meant "to ship all 3 with heat and stuff will be $25. Truth be told if you would have told me you got the 1st money order after the 2nd was sent. I was going to tell you to keep it for the trouble it caused by sending it to the wrong address.

3. Please do I would like to hear what she has to say.

I think for the most part thats just for patient info...They dont wanna give out info to a hitman thats trying to get your address and such..Around here visiting someone dosnt require all that..

I have had the same expirience when visiting someone..Around here they dont stop you from seeing anyone,but will not give out their info.But if you dont know someone is there and ask,they will not telll you.The only time they get iffy is when you visit someone on the newborn floor..They usually stop you and ask who you are seeing,and then go to the room and make sure the person is ok with you being there...But yeah,I dont think they can stop you from seeing a dying relative and such while they do a backround check on you and stuff..
 
This was the 1st time i even heard that the frogs were sent. I don't belive that they were shipped.

I sent you the frogs months ago before I got sick.

you sent me $25 when the purchase was more then that? If you sent me more money I dont know but I can ask me g/f if I got any mail like that.

If $25 was not payment in full, why would you send the frogs?

I got contact from Philip Brubaker and everything is fine between Philip and I.

I knew Philip is a very nice guy, so I didn't make any fast judgment on him.He does come through with his sales and trades with everyone :)

I would like to know more about this trade. Why didn't he send your snake? How did he make it right?

Glassy answered these questions in a PM today.

All those questions that you seek is none of your business. Your thread is utterly ridiculous and am not getting involved.

He kept my money and didn't send your snake's and this bad guy thread is "utterly ridiculous"? :shrug01:

Dusty Jones
 
Then you sent me $25 when the purchase was more then that?

Philip here is a screen shot of a reply PM you sent to me after I told you i was send the $25. If $25 was not the price for the frogs shipped. Then why didn't you say something on 11/09/09?

That is very strong proof that Philip is a cheat and stole my money!

So Philip what do you have to say for yourself now!!
