No, I was just saying why I had it. I have boxes from all the companies. ---

I believe you. Don’t know if anyone else is buying it… 😁 I’m kidding!! You know I’m kidding. 😁 ---

So dirty it looked sitting there like that… and ominous. 😁 ---

Would you like to add an authentic medtronic waterproof Sportcase, from 1990s? It had a funky way of allowing the tubing to go thru the side. I think I used it once and it leaked! I’m sure you could identify the flaw and improve on it. ---

It freaked out his movers when they saw his collection of stuff to be moved. He used to design hospital beds and got to keep the prototypes. And he’s a hunter. They thought he was WEIRD and he heard them talking about him, “What’s up with this guy? He has hospital beds and lots of weapons? Knives? This is creepy.” I bet your diabetes lab is pretty interesting. ---

But it is pretty easy to get the veterinary grade dextrose. It is the same thing, and is also sterile. It works the same. So I incorporated as an animal research facility and got veterinary grade. They use it for cows that are nursing because their blood sugar drops a lot. ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/fudiabetes/original/2X/a/acde015ca98b7772f9bad4d9e753260e2f3de580.jpeg) Since rats and mice get cured a lot, I actually bought some of the stuff they use for animal research in some of my pump customization’s. The rodents have all the good stuff. Here is a catalogue I have bought from. ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/fudiabetes/original/2X/3/3ec05f504d570cf7a7e59ac4ba44edf26cf09ed6.jpeg) My lab reminded my son of Walter White’s meth lab from Breaking Bad, so he bought me this bobble-head as a lab mascot. 😃 ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/fudiabetes/original/2X/0/067d8abf8ba68eb3dbe5c58279193c1f651d65f4.jpeg) Anyway, that’s the lab. ---

Where _are we_??? And how are both of you responding to this so quick?? 🤣🤣 I _was_ talking about your lab pics, @Eric… I don’t know how I missed them, but I did. But now I’m more interested in this behavior here… 🤔 In particular, what @T1Allison is hoping she’s stumbled upon… 🤣🤣 ---

I can tell you one thing about the way that lab looks… I have seen _one too many_ horror flicks with those exact items. I’m not sure if any outsiders have ever seen it, @Eric, but if they have, they’re telling stories about you to this day. 😁 ---
