- I'm not saying he has one, but you have to wonder why he hasn't addressed the issue head on to date. -- nm - pmb Aug 30, 14:05

- Do they do repeat prescriptions in the US? They do here. -- nm - Loyola Aug 30, 13:57 10
  - The Dr. will specify a number of 'refills' allowed, but I don't think we have 'repeat' or like, 'standing' prescriptions. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Aug 30, 13:59 8
    - we have it that way too, but if you have a recurring condition, they usually give you enough that you don't have to come in too often. -- nm - Andie Aug 30, 14:01 7
      - but would they do that for antibiotics? I'm not so sure -- nm - Beryllium Aug 30, 14:01 6

        I've never seen refills on an antibiotic prescription that I've gotten. -- nm - Kim Pine Aug 30, 14:08 3

        (My wife's had the same level of annoyance for recurring things in the past, as well) -- nm - Beryllium Aug 30, 14:03

*headdesk* -- nm - David Aug 30, 13:53 36
- did Kelly pick by the pretty colors again? -- nm - Remlik Aug 30, 14:01 14

    - she probably still beats you. -- nm - Remlik Aug 30, 14:12 2
      - speaking of a beating, a message was left for you on B2 -- nm - crash davis Aug 30, 14:13 1

      - bam -- nm - milky Aug 30, 14:08

      - i have nipples that are less sensitive. -- nm - TFox Aug 30, 14:08 1
        
        heh. - kelly Aug 30, 14:14
    - Pass along her draft.....ya know since she's unable to get to the net at work. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 30, 14:05

    - What happened? -- nm - Inigo Aug 30, 13:58 12
      - Redmond picked a guy who might be dead, I'm not sure. -- nm - Kim Pine Aug 30, 14:01 9
        
        I'd be fine with letting him take that pick back and select someone else. -- nm - Krusty Aug 30, 14:10 5
        
        me too, fwiw. -- nm - TFox Aug 30, 14:11 4
        
        That's definitely what will happen, but he has to notice first. -- nm - Saying What You're All Thinking Aug 30, 14:13 3
        
        ...much like Peggy Olson naked -- nm - budice Aug 30, 14:15 2
        
        that was some subtle acting she did in that scene. I bet she's stared someone down naked before. -- nm - Reagen Aug 30, 14:20 1
        
        "You try to improve the Obama impersonation, *now*?" -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 30, 14:22

        Dead like a fox! -- nm - David Aug 30, 14:01
      - Redmond selected at 2-1...sidney rice. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 30, 13:59 1

  - actually kosher issues are serious business, the fam could be shamed out of the temple, the hotel could loose biz if the rabbis ban the place - zeitgeist Aug 30, 13:55
