I hope everything turns out OK for you. Did the nurse even realize why you were there, or was she just someone that was casually passing by?

The nurse was taking a blood sample from my wife's arm, when we had this conversation. Can you believe it?! Went to family Dr. and all tests show that the clot was from the surgery and after the next 6 months of weekly blood tests and taking a blood thinner she should be 100% healthy. Just goes to show that any surgery shouldn't be taken lightly, no matter if it is plastic syrgery or otherwise. I can't wait for her to heal because can't go off-road with her because of the bumps hurt her chest. Thanks for asking.

Not to minimize the horrible after affects, but would you like a moment of silence for the reduction? My girlfriend wants to get one. I can see her point knowing how it kills her back and shoulders. At the same time, I'm really going to miss those DDDs.

Again, not trying to make light of your wife's situation. Hopefully everything with her will work out fine.

They took off 8.8 pounds!!!! She is still a D cup but much smaller than what she was. I'll miss them as well, but they were killing her back and shoulders. Side note: you don't get to keep them like you can on stones, teeth, etc. Laughter is the best medicine....she'll be fine once the bllod clot disolves.

HUMMER needs to advertise to people who are looking for a different vehicle. Personally I don't get the ads running right now. Just cause someone cut in front of you at the playground shouldn't make you go buy an H3...the kid still didn't get to go down the slide and now she has some monthly payments to make.

The commercials do not make sense to me, of course my hubby and I are just having fun, the 2 of us. So we are not really thinking about child safety locks etc....with all respect to those who are.
During our recent vacation to Las Vegas we had a rental car, it was a pontiac grand prix and was fun to drive for the 10 days we were there. I gave the 'thumbs up' to every hummer driver I saw on the road.

Of course I know that GM studied,read and researched before many test markets and for some reason those silly commercials won the 'on air' demographic for the advertising spots.

My wife wants to rent a car also if we take another road trip. We took one last year from Chicago, to Yellowstone, to Vegas, San Diego, then back, and we were in my Scion xB that was dropped. I wish I had a H3 at that time to go through all of the off-roading trails we came across. We round a state park that was literally on top and in between two 4000 foot mountains.

We supposedly bought the H3 for road trips. I am going to make sure we use it for that ;-)

Periodically I will have people give the classic phrase when referring to a guy in a sports car or upscale SUV: "must be making up for his shortcoming(s)"
No, I just want a nice, functional, safe, stable, new, classy, tough vehicle which is different than the 1000's of generic, boiler-plated SUV's out there.

Dennis - I would have thought your Land Rover insurance was VERY cheap because they spent so much time in the shop and not being driven.
