Strabismus.

I watched my wife have eye surgery on a monitor.. wasn't going to look but it was to fascinating not to!

You will do anything to keep us awake and Woot-ing, won't you?

I'm actually completely blind in one eye and red, green color blind. Doctors say there is no surgery to repair it. My friends love to creep up on me from my blind side and scare the crap out of me though.

Holy crap that first one was too big

Tough job, keeping that slightly demented weltanschauung for the descriptions.

Did I say "slightly"? Anyway kudos to the writers.

I always wondered what Wooters did in the middle of the night

Alcohol helps.

anyone know when the woot offs end? I need sleep!

ThunderThighs wrote:Nah. You try writing 400+ write-ups for a woot-off.

Aren't many of them re-used? I love the write-ups but it seems strange to have to write up new ones every woot-off. I mean, honestly you could cut that number in half if you just reused the same tablet write up for all of them.

i'm surprised nobody mentioned the absence of the scary one

Still want to know how Bigbadram knows there are 813 of these..

Is our salvation on the horizon?

Hmmm. You might have had a brilliant, although short, career as a wide receiver.

ThunderThighs wrote:Fun to have friends like that.

The eye treatment involving the injection deadened the eye muscles in the one eye for about 6 weeks to let the other eye muscles strengthen. So the one eye went wall-eyed, far out to the left (left eye). I could see things coming behind me. It was like chameleon eye.

Do you by any chance remember the name of the surgery? I'd like to ask my doctor about it next time I visit him.

In geometry, an object such as a line or vector is called a normal to another object if they are perpendicular to each other. For example, in the two-dimensional case, the normal line to a curve at a given point is the line perpendicular to the tangent line to the curve at the point.

This is now a 2 day affair, though at this rate I doubt it will be 3 days...

All you need is a little of this:

crypto1701 wrote:Still want to know how Bigbadram knows there are 813 of these..

Statistics. Percent left based on the number sold. Which can be determined by the percent sold in each area/woot-age/etc. (or just threw out a random number)

So it's good to be a perpendicular person?

I got one of these. The sound quality is not bad and it's nice to have a volume control on the cable. It's ok from about 25 minutes of use anything more and it starts getting too heavy and hurt my ear. For casual short use not bad at all.

YEAH !!!!! SOLD OUT!

Sorry for the confusion.

Thank You.

I think this item is one of its kind. And I will get some for my house hold.

ThunderThighs wrote:No, that one was about 20+ years ago. Basically, it was an injection of Botox (or similar) into the eye muscles of the strong eye to make the weak eye work and get stronger. Then when the strong eye came into focus, it would track better with the weak eye.

Worked. Lasted about 20 years and then things started going wonky again. Had traditional eye muscle surgery about 6 years ago. First surgery was at 5yrs old.

Oh that probably wouldnt help my case anyway. I have nerve damage in my eye.

I missed it as well, I had to trade for it. Bought someone Hungry Hungry Games just to get this shirt. One of my favorites

Bought because thought it fit my cell phone (wrong write-up). SO thought would see if could still use if with PC, turns out it cannot get a quality signal.
