    New front Case Fan for my large desktop. For some strange reason the misery continues even tho I did finally get it running good yesterday, mid morning the case fan went down. Since it is 200mm I thought better to go ahead and not wait to replace it., especially with all the parts just installed. I hope the new one has a better life span, I know there could not be more than 50 hours on the computer. Next I purchased a large USB stick because I lost 3 before discovering the computer was hosing everything I plugged in on the USB 2 ports. Took me a while to find the problem for that one, one complete row of pins on the old CPU was bent. I never had the CPU out do to buying on eBay used. It did run off and on for two years but once again very little time on. I noticed it was black screening when I first used it but after reading a lot it was said that win10 was over writing the graphics and I turned that off and it did run alright for a while. It sat there months and never was turned on. Now it is refreshed nothing over looked and it runs really fast even in default mode. It is capable of 4.7Mhz but I see no reason to run it that fast. The extra memory really helps and I plan on upgrading the other 2 AMD machines with the same ram and the Ryzen 5 5600X before they become hard to get.

    CAUTION: "Hairy Legged Spiders Live Here" That would probably work as well.

    Geez, I once worked at the little chevy dealer there in TomBall, lived in Conroe. That was in 1982, I rented a new trailer from the Barber there in Conroe because he bought it for his daughter and she never moved into the trailer. So when I got it the thing was NEW. This was when the Corvettes all got the new look and we would see how fast we could make a right or left turn without crashing. They were pretty solid and could turn without crashing :D

    Does anyone here wear low compression socks? Have you ever bought them from Amazon? I've been having trouble with the ones that I do on so it's going to order some off of Amazon but I'm not sure how the sizes run especially on those multicolored ones anybody have any suggestions?

    My hubby wears compression sock but they are far from low, unless you mean not a lot of compression instead of anklets.

    I wear the knee high ones sometimes, when I have to travel and sit for long hours. My legs feel so much better for it. I read somewhere that a person should wear over the calf compression socks when traveling on a plane or long rides. I also buy a size larger than recommended. I didn’t want to have to struggle and fight putting the damn things on.:mad::D I bought a size large in this style and I thought they were comfortable.

    Hubby gets some with zippers from lemon.com, I think. Probably not cheap.
    OOPs just looked and that is not the domain name.
    Just search compression socks with zippers and there are many.

    My wife uses them and is very happy with the ones she gets from Amazon, but I cannot give you the name at the moment.
