   I’d say it’s cruel to the people at Wal-mart.

   If you have access to Adobe Acrobat (not the Reader), scan the form to a PDF and open it in the software. Use Tools/Prepare Forms to have it populate the entry fields. Then tweak as needed. There may be other PDF programs with comparable capabilities.

   Acrobat generally does a good job. Whether the effort is worth it will depend on the circumstances. And whether you’re allowed to submit the form that way.

   I think the idea is that something that large is going to be a strain to move, regardless of the weight. Which probably still isn’t trivial.

   Never noticed an odd taste with the two types I use. And silicone should be fairly inert. So, they shouldn’t impart any flavor. But perhaps I’m not as sensitive.

   Anyway, just a thought.

   Try the ones made of silicone.

   Hey, it made her happy and it’s probably mostly true.

   Looking at it from the other side, I think it’s one of the finer professions. Not quite surgeon perhaps, but then again you reach more people. And isn’t laughter the best medicine? With a bit of human warmth thrown in for good measure.

   Personally, I think you do all right. Sorry to harsh your self-deprecation :)

   From what I recall of the very first Iron Man story (read as a reprint many years ago), he was definitely affected by seeing thr results. Marvel was big on that type of angst in the 60s, how they differentiated thenselves. Acnowledged that it’s fluctuated over the years but that’s the core of the character.

   I dudn’t mention Green Arrow, because he did start out just trying to do good in the 40s. It wasn’t until they retconned his origin in the 60s that the trauma factored in. Although officially now, that Green Arrow is a different person from an althernate universe.

    Actually, Iron Man does it out of guilt after seeing firsthand the results of the use of the weapons his company made. Not that he isn’t also portrayed as getting a kick out of it.
