LeKanaw, can't you just "Forward" the email to "C"? Make sure that "B" is not listed in the "To", "CC" or "BC" fields in the header. Only "C" should be shown on the "To" field. Just make sure you do not use "Reply".

I'm not familiar with GMail but most e-mail services have similar formats.When you open the e-mail from *B* that same page should have an option to forward that same e-mail,when you click on forward it will open a compose page with the e-mail from *B* in the subject line.You enter *C*'s addy. and send it to *C*.There's no reason you should have to send it to *C* going through *B*.
Or do you mean you do not want *B*'s addy. to show when you send it to *C*?Posted 16 years ago # -

MemberLeK....Traitor??? What'd I do, what'd I do?????
Seriously for just a moment....yes LeK I CAN be serious......just not for very long.
Ok....you forward it. If you don't want C to see any of B's info just delete that part AFTER you hit forward. Got it?

MemberYou are Lovely ppl indeed, Thank You!!!! :D :D
You may have noticed that I've been up here On & Off since yesterday afternoon.
Yeah, so I'm over the 30hr mark. After 20hr, the brain starts to go...
After 30hr, I don't know my name!! I know that I knew this!! It's just I caught myself starring at the page w a blank stare, not even remembering what "reply" meant.
Ohhhh old age!!
Of course, as soon as I saw the word "Forward" it hit me. Let me go find a soft wall, so I can go bang my head there!

MemberLeKanaw, oh dear, you must get some sleep. One cannot continue to function properly without it. You need your strength for tools and the pond and the garage and the lovely landscaped lawn and scuba! I guess I relinquished it all to you. :)

MemberThank You Maizey for making me laugh!!
Some days I need it more than others!! It really isn't easy, you know, I'm so tired!Yes, I would gladly get some sleep... if I could. Insomnia is not a friend :(
Tried at 20h, again at 24h, 28h, 30h. Will try next hour.
No matter, I can't *do* anything, but at least I'm laughing :-D=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=

MemberLeK....hey, at least you have a reason for not remembering your name or what simple words mean. I come up blank all the time and I sleep pretty well. For me it's just plain old age, Alzheimers, whatever.
Yeh, I read your proposal, and I'm pretty sure everyone else did, why do you ask?

MemberI can't remember which thread it was in or who it was but someone asked about Whiterabbit cause we haven't seen him in a few days and others expressed concern as well so here's a message from the bunny ....
"Let everyone over on the forums know that I'm okay and will be back shortly. I've been occupied with the kids over Easter and have been busy with hydrotherapy and seeing spinal specialists."

Freebird31 - Didn't mean to ingnore your post,must have missed it originally,so in reply, ooohhh!! Yee have little faith!! It would be to much trouble to move the comp. just to take a pic. but yes the cords are all bundled and even labeled.I learned the hard way,one day had to install a new internal HD so I went about unpluging all wires,cables,and cords. When I was ready to put it all back together, had no idea of what belonged to what.The space behind the desk is so tight you can't see where they all went.So used one of those lable machines to tag them all,it has come in handy many times since.

How on earth did a bona fide tool fanatic like me happen to miss this thread?! I inherited my Grandpa's handmade wooden tool chests filled with his machinists tools (although I did share a couple with my brother). I inherited my family's business, working as a mechanic and electrician. I have some of the first Stanley tools made, more tools than most guys have ever seen and this is my wallpaper. How did I miss a thread on tools?
sigh .. where DID I put that Geritol ...?

MemberHi Bobby, I don't know how you missed it! Both my grandfather and father were machinists. My dad then got his engineering degree, while still working, and went on to become a mechanical engineer. I took machine shop training classes, and was immediately hired as a supervisor for the secondary machine shop at the company who provided the training. I only did that for a few years then moved to a powdered metals component manufacturing plant to work in the quality field. My mother's brother was a machinist too. I have many of my uncles tools and my dad gave me some of his. Dad still has most of his tools, including his old wooden tool chest full, but he has given several to both my brothers too. One brother is a secondary machinist/programmer and the other is a maintenance mechanic for secondary machining department. My sister is the only one who never got into machining, but she does work in quality for the same PM company where I started in quality. I suppose my siblings and I were born into this tool thing!

MemberIn my previous post I made mention of a Whale Shark here.

Was able to find this video which gives you an idea of thier size and how docile this magnificent creature is!

MemberThe whale shark is a great fish! I've seen them on television before. When I do watch TV it's usually nature, cultural, history or how-to programs. Impressive video but I bet it does not compare to being there.
It's funny that cat would even let him put that suit on, let alone enjoy it! Neat! :)

MemberI don't really know where I should post this. But since most of the folks that visit this thread are on medications, this is where I'm putting it. I knew about this years ago because my ex brother-in-law is a biochemist and used to work for a major pharmaceutical company.

Memberwow, scuba, you are right. magnificent is the perfect word to describe that whale shark. i get that she is docile and safe for humans, but i was surprised to see her so comfortable while being surrounded by several people. thanks for sharing that video.
love the scuba pets!
maizey- thank you for the meds tip.

MemberGee whiz maizey.. we just got through dumping a whole shelf of misc. pharmacy type things from the kitchen cabinet last week because they were all expired!!!!!! All that $ down the drain? Then again, some of them were dated around '95, '96, 2001, etc. Still have 2 more shelves to go! Now, should I or shouldn't I??
Posted 16 years ago # -
Copmom .. don't dump them down the drain! Medications are not tested for or treated by most wastewater recycling plants. They could end up in your neighborhood's drinking water! 'Tis a better idea to crush them, and then mix them with kitty litter or coffee grounds (or something equally unpalatable) and then add to the trash.

Membercopmom, as far as tossing your expired drugs, I would use the guidelines talked about in the original link above. I won't throw away pain meds because they are a decade old. If they are weak, just take another one. But antibiotics and drugs that are used to control a condition, like heart, thyroid, blood pressure, etc., I'd be skeptical about keeping more that a couple of years. Also, liquid meds don't keep well. I get rid of them when they're expired.
Bobby is right about them getting into the water supply. This has had a lot of news coverage in he last few months.

MemberScuba....love the video of the scuba kitty/puppy. Awesome! I can't believe a cat would do that. It must be a real trip being so close to sharks and other underwater creatures. I got to touch a dolphin once and it was fantastic just to do that.
Copmom......I never throw prescription meds away. If you think about it why should they "expire" anyway? What, do they get stale or something???
Maizey......mind if I ask what Pharm. company? Hubby worked for one of the biggest for 20+ years. It's had several names, I think the current one is Aventis, but that could have cahnged by now too.

MemberYou are all right about dumping them down the drain.. and I will clear that one up.. I used that as a phrase, they went in the trash. So, not to worry, not in any water supply. Plus anything I do dump doesn't go into the public water system, we have a septic tank. I'd been hearing about the water supplies containing meds on the news myself lately. Sure am glad we're on a well, and on a hill near the top so there's nothing above us that could/would leach into our water supply. (I HOPE). And yes, I do keep certain ones, like pain pills. Never know when those are needed. I never could take a full pain pill anyway, used to take just a 1/2 with 2 tylenol, and that's always worked for me.

Memberi think that this thread is the appropriate place for this:
Common Tools Explained
To the unitiated, the workshop can be an intimidating place, full of tools you may not know what to do with. To help, here's a helpful explanation of common tools and their uses.
DRILL PRESS: A tall upright machine useful for suddenly snatching flat metal bar stock out of your hands so that it smacks you in the chest and flings your beer across the room, denting the freshly-painted vertical stabilizer which you had carefully set in the corner where nothing could get to it.
WIRE WHEEL: Cleans paint off bolts and then throws them somewhere under the workbench with the speed of light . Also removes fingerprints and hard-earned cleco calluses from fingers in about the time it takes you to say, "Oh rats!"
ELECTRIC HAND DRILL: Normally used for spinning pop rivets in their holes until you die of old age.
SKILL SAW: A portable cutting tool used to make studs too short.
PLIERS: Used to round off bolt heads. Sometimes used in the creation of blood-blisters.
BELT SANDER: An electric sanding tool commonly used to convert minor touch-up jobs into major refinishing jobs.
HACKSAW: One of a family of cutting tools built on the Ouija board principle. It transforms human energy into a crooked, unpredictable motion, and the more you attempt to influence its course, the more dismal your future becomes.
AVIATION METAL SNIPS: See hacksaw.
VISE-GRIPS: Generally used after pliers to completely round off bolt heads. If nothing else is available, they can also be used to transfer intense welding heat to the palm of your hand.
WELDING GLOVES: Heavy duty leather gloves used to prolong the conduction of intense welding heat to the palm of your hand.
OXYACETYLENE TORCH: Used almost entirely for lighting various flammable objects in your shop on fire. Also handy for igniting the grease inside the wheel hub you want the bearing race out of.
TABLE SAW: A large stationary power tool commonly used to launch wood projectiles for testing wall integrity.
HYDRAULIC FLOOR JACK: Used for lowering an automobile to the ground after you have installed your new brake shoes, trapping the jack handle firmly under the bumper.
EIGHT-FOOT LONG YELLOW PINE 2X4: Used for levering an automobile upward off of a trapped hydraulic jack handle.

Funky, loved those descriptions! Especially the wire wheel (auuugh! incoming!), the skill saw (yep..no matter how many times I cut 'em, they'e still too short!) and the vice grips (transferring intense welding heat directly to the palm of my hand while protecting the weld joint at all costs).
Apparently the guys that engineered this expanding table had no such fun .. ahhhh...difficulties.
Ditto this walking table . Too cool.Oh .. the links take you to my Photobucket site .. they're in the 'Tool Stuff' album.

MemberHad this in the wrong forum!
OH, here's something about tools since y'all are always talking about tools.. just got this in an email:More Common Tools Explained
To the unitiated, the workshop can be an intimidating place, full of tools you may not know what to do with. To help, here's a helpful explanation of more common tools and their uses.E-Z OUT BOLT AND STUD EXTRACTOR: A tool ten times harder than any known drill bit that snaps neatly off in bolt holes thereby ending any possible future use.
BAND SAW: A large stationary power saw primarily used by most shops to cut good aluminium sheet into smaller pieces that more easily fit into the trash can after you cut on the inside of the line instead of the outside edge.
TWO-TON ENGINE HOIST: A tool for testing the maximum tensile strength of everything you forgot to disconnect.
CRAFTSMAN 1/2 x 24-INCH SCREWDRIVER: A very large pry bar that inexplicably has an accurately machined screwdriver tip on the end opposite the handle.
PHILLIPS SCREWDRIVER: Normally used to stab the vacuum seals under lids and for opening old-style paper-and-tin oil cans and splashing oil on your shirt; but can also be used, as the name implies, to strip out Phillips screw heads.
STRAIGHT SCREWDRIVER: A tool for opening paint cans. Sometimes used to convert common slotted screws into non-removable screws.
PRY BAR: A tool used to crumple the metal surrounding that clip or bracket you needed to remove in order to replace a 50 cent part.
HOSE CUTTER: A tool used to make hoses too short.
HAMMER: Originally employed as a weapon of war, the hammer nowadays is used as a kind of divining rod to locate the most expensive parts adjacent the object we are trying to hit.
MECHANIC'S KNIFE: Used to open and slice through the contents of cardboard cartons delivered to your front door; works particularly well on contents such as seats, vinyl records, liquids in plastic bottles, collector magazines, refund checks, and rubber or plastic parts. Especially useful for slicing work clothes, but only while in use.
DARNIT TOOL: Any handy tool that you grab and throw across the garage while yelling "DARNIT" at the top of your lungs. It is also, most often, the next tool that you will need.
