Yes, it does. There are varying degrees of compression per pair of hose,
and the compression varies from foot to top. If you plan to wear them on a
regular basis, you should have your doctor recommend what degree of
compression you should wear.

Well, what do you watch on TV, the Cartoon channel, Nickelodeon,
American Idol... Tim Russert has appeared on every news channel and
has been interviewed by every major every talk show, many times.
?Tim Russert is as recognizable as Bill Clinton, moreso.

Sweetheart, there are other stations than NBC. ?Have you heard of
them? CNN? ?FOX? ?ABC? ?CBS? ?Sorry, I haven't watched NBC. ?I
actually usually watch my local news channel, BayNews9 and when I
was on Maui I watched another local channel, KITV - an ABC station.

Sorry, I'm not aware of who he is.

Tim Russert has appeared often on all networks, including local ones,
as the interviewee and interviewer... you must watch all those
networks on mind altering drugs. And even if you're unaware who he
is, and even if you do and don't like him, the man died, then say
nothing... you showed no respect.... but then a slut tramp who's proud
of shacking up with a useless parasitic dirtbag has no self respect.

Once again, thanks, Sheldon. Can you be any more harsh? Perhaps I've
lived on a rock in the middle of the Pacific for many years and haven't
had access to "modern" news.

Most of the time I've been here in FL, I haven't even had cable TV -
it's only been in the past couple of years. And, honey, I really wish
you wouldn't cut my husband down. He takes me to every doctor's appt.
and, huh, and knowing of your judging a woman by her boobs - since I
only have one left - my husband's still here. Would you be?

Then I would highly recommend them for that. Degree of compression would
not be as critical for occasional use. I bought the compression level just
below the really heavy duty ones. The worst part is just getting them on.

I always thought he was younger- not enough gray hairs for all the
years. He truly loved his job- that was evident, so maybe that's why I
think he looked younger.

You should be extremely appologetic to be the first to rush forth to
blurt out that you never heard of Tim Russert... why didn't you just
stfu... a normal human would have at the very least taken a few
moments to look him up on the net and waited for some other folks to
post first so you'd get a clue... it's no wonder you shacked up with
the very first totally useless slut stalker came along... you earned
everything you deserve. You're an utter embarrassment to humanity.
It's difficult to feel any empathy for someone so utterly self
absorbed as you... you don't even express sympathy for another
unfortunate human being, makes one wonder if anything you claim is
true The parasitic florida duet, you deserve each other. Preying on
good folks sympathies makes you a fraud and a scammer.

And of the hundred he was probably up there in the top ten. From

Let's hope not, Shelly.
