Here is another idea for anyone who does not like the risks and issues of lasik, but still has saved a bit of money around here. =-) There is a newer procedure called ACR Active Cornea Reshaping. It basically work that you wear custom hard contacts at night. These contacts will reshape your...

There are more CEG'er out there than you think... I tried the rhinoramps at a friends house but the approach was still too steep, so my solution was to use the $7 kmart special ramps, and then a few pieces of 2x8 cut into 30" sections. These boards are also helpful for when you are working on...

Wow, nice pics, and props on the chia-keyboard.
