Oh no.... Disney had it's chance with Sentai. They had Power Rangers for 5+ years and did SHIT with it.

Seconding the pillminder option.
Alternately, you might consider keeping your medication rolled up in an ACE bandage, which you then keep in a jar (for maximum crush resistance) much like a Rolykit. For smaller quantities you could keep them rolled in a kid's sock in a standard pill bottle.
FYI, if you need a quick-n-dirty way to pillo-pack some crushables, try the following (which I am not going to illustrate because it's late and I don't want to waste time making diagrams). Take a Ziploc bag and fill it with just enough air to keep your entire palm off the table if you were to lay it flat and place your hand on top of it. Place your protected package on top of the bag about 1/4 of the way down from the seal, then fold it at the halfway point so that the bottom edge meets the top edge and your cargo is pillowed in right in the center (some experimenting will determine the proper amount of air depending on the volume of crushables). A couple pieces of tape or a rubber band can then be used to keep the bag folded around your stuff.

Damn right! It's like they said " We failed at Power Ranger huh? WELL WE'LL MAKE OUR OWN FUCKING RANGERS!"
They failed because they never really tried (except for two seasons, Jungle Fury and RPM, which are among my favs). It was all about getting the previous 13 or so years for Disney XD, which they wanted to run as filler for the network. The problem is that their deal didn't give them ownership of those seasons, only a few of them. If they wanted the rest, they had to pay Saban a hefty fee. This meant they basically had to try and keep the show running to make filler for Disney XD back in a time when they didn't have a lot of modern shows to run. Unfortunately, most stations put the ABC version on at terrible times (5-6 AM or 12:00, where it'd get preempted by sports) so no one really watched the Disney seasons.
After awhile they just stopped caring and sold it back to Saban. Nick likes the show, but they only want 26 episodes a year, so most of the shows are going to get 2-year seasons from now on, skipping over the weirder ones or taking elements of them and combining the two seasons. Should be back to airing the final ones of Samurai this week, starting with the Halloween one.
I had a near 2 hour IM converstaion with Pez yesterday, without him being online. I felt kind of bad for him when he did log on...lot of back log messages to read.
I am proud of myself that my crazy didn't spill onto the forums....
Yeah, it was a weird day yesterday.

Honestly I'd love to read your crazy. It's very therapeutic to vent.
Heh, I'll try to remember to save my next one-sided IM conversation. It was mostly me rambling about nonsensical things.
Imagining him reading it made me laugh though.
2 year seasons? Huh...well that'll give them time to make the Pirate ranger show make sense to American viewers! Especially since most American audiences haven't seen even half of the whole Super Sentai franchise.
No, we're not getting Gokaiger. Megaforce (Goseiger) is going to be the 20th anniversary season in the US (because they are ether counting Alien Rangers or the MMPR Remix as a season), so it would be pointless to celebrate it a year later using the Gokaiger footage. However, we ARE getting some of the elements from Gokaiger, including a US variation of the 199 Ranger battle featuring the rangers from the US seasons. Saban had Toei film special footage just for the US version in order to avoid the confusion of "Hey, who are THOSE guys?".
The next season (2015) we're getting after Megaforce is probably going to be the Kyoryugar, unless they can make Go-Busters not ridiculous. It's not going to be the pirate themed Gokaiger because we're getting plot elements from it for Megaforce.

Oh yeah, the one with all the interchangeable heads! Kids will fucking LOVE that.

Parting fools from their money really is that easy huh?

And I thought people asking $1,000+ for Gary Gygax's Book of Names was bad...

Some of the reviews!
"it was not 65.6' it was really 65.1' i had to remove my wall and move it 4" closer to my xbox, why didnt they just say 70' ft and it might come out 65.6' next time ill just go to the flea market they sell better brands.."
"I checked on amazon for a similar product but could only find a fifty foot one for fifteen dollars. That would have worked but I mean who knows when I could use the extra 15ft. Anyways, I figured that "the more you spend the better the product is", and boy was I right! Downing a grand on a cable that reaches from my living room to my bed room was the best decision I've ever made, i'll never have to move my playstation again! I could have bought a small car for this price, but come on you don't have to pay insurance for this!"
I feel like a lion today - my hair is so..fluffy and unruly. I seriously didn't even try to tame it. It's just...poof.
You're kind of the greatest. Just so you know.
Apparently my hair came to visit you. I keep mine in a ponytail because there is just no point anymore.
Damn right. When I look at my avatar and think Helena's hair looks better than mine does on a regular basis, you know it's time to throw in the towel.
Who's got two thumbs and got 3 hours of sleep because he worked on a project that it turns out he didn't have to turn in today? I am sleeping like fuck tomorrow.
Shape of...a paper bag?
I may have had the strangest medical appointment ever today. I've had a lot too, so that's saying something.
It was a follow up from emergency abdominal surgery so I did want to go over what had happened. I got there and she got out the report from my surgery along with pictures. Yup pictures.

There should be a "feedback sampler" achievement or something for getting every type of feedback on one post.
Today is definitely a soup day. All cloudy and shit.
