  1. The storage thingy with all of my photos in it dating from the time I met my husband. Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  2. Why do you think we named him Stu? Thought the whole concept of Rabbit Stu was funny. Of course, we have guinea pigs named Bacon and Pork Chop, so we are a little sick when it comes to naming pets. Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  3. I've had rabbits all my life, and know how to sex them. I also know that they detest being flipped over, so never bothered repeating the torture if the humane league already did it. Moral of the story, never believe humane league rabbit sexing. I can understand mistaking a boy for a girl, but how the hell can you screw up calling a rabbit a boy if it isn't? Yes, he is getting fixed. Ball whacking day is the Monday after Thanksgiving. I can't wait. I have eaten rabbit, good stuff. But these are definitely pet bunnies. My dogs also chase rabbits in our yard, but they groom and play with my house rabbits. The rabbits love it, they like chasing the rottweiler around the house, really funny to watch. Both are litter trained.\ Mom is a dutch, dad is a chinchilla. I have no idea what babies will look like, it'll be interesting. I've had a New Zealand who should have been meat instead of pet, a couple albinos, a couple checkered giants, and a holland lop over the years. All lived to old age and spoiled rotten.

  4. I have a 90 lb rottie/black lab mix that is terrified of our rabbits. I have a 40 lb cattle dog that will sit and groom one of the rabbits and tends to ignore the other. The cats just sit and watch them, one will groom them. So if a rottie can deal with a rabbit, a yorkie can too
  5. Here's the story. I have this rabbit, named Stu. Stu was adopted from the humane league. I wanted a male rabbit, they told me he was a male rabbit, I never bothered double checking since rabbits are not fond of being flipped on their backs. Enter rabbit number 2, a cute little guy at the pet store who was abandoned by his previous owners. We brought the boy home and threw them both in the bathtub to get acquainted on neutral ground. We came back a couple hours later. They were doing things that typically boy rabbits don't do. Quick double check of our first rabbit to find out that we have a girl named Stu. Second rabbit was thus dubbed Casanova. We now have a knocked up bunny who is going to hatch within the next two days. Which means I will have from one to nine baby rabbits to find homes for. So, any of you wonderful people like a rabbit to call your very own? Very friendly, easy to litter train, and all those warm and fuzzy things that make them the ideal low maintanance pet. Jen PS Casanova (Casey) gets his balls chopped off next Monday Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  6. I'm a 15 jump wonder, so don't take my word for crap, okay? The way I see it, there's no reason to rush to a smaller canopy, I have lots of life left in me, many years ahead, so plenty of time to go to a smaller canopy size if I want to. There's so much to flying a canopy, and as I'm reading Brian Germain's book, it was plain scary just how much I didn't know that I didn't know. I jumped my own rig for the first time yesterday and was delighted with it. The smallest I've jumped yet, but forgiving of the fact that I didn't flare completely yesterday and am still learning to fly it. I'm 165 out the door and bought a sabre 170. It was a blast to fly and it will be a LOT of jumps before I'm ready to move to something new. Jen Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  7. Our local gas stations, Turkey Hill, has signs posted in all their windows for white ribbons for cars that are anti porn, saying it should be illegal. My husband and I want to get ribbons that are pro-porn in response. It is stupid, it isn't like porn is smeared on the billboards or on TV or anything. I guess I'm just breaking some kind of moral law since we hit the 'toy' store last night. Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  8. My aunt is CEO of Remax, and a few years ago (while she was not CEO, but still high up in the company), she had breast cancer, mastectomy, the works. It actually worked in her favor for increasing breast cancer awareness, Remax sponsors a huge research fund for it, good for Remax image, good for breast cancer research. She has even been on the Today Show in recognition for all she has done. It's really a double edged sword. I don't think that it needs to be smeared all over the news, it isn't the business of the general public, but at least in-company knowledge can be a good thing. Jen Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  9. There's a local doc pair here. He was John Smith. She was Mary Jones. They are now John Jones-Smith and Mary Jones-Smith. I kept my first husband's last name because it was a pain in the ass to change it, and I knew I'd be married again eventually. Turned out to be about 8 months later. I took my new husband's name too. He takes care of me and protects me, we love and trust each other, it is what felt right for us. Each couple should do what's right for them. A rose is a rose by any other name and all that. Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  10. Apparently you've never seen how I eat my steak. Luke warm, as in body temperature. Nothing truly cooked about it
  11. I don't understand this. You start slow, with little bits of information and then add to it as time passes, instead of throwing everything at once at a kid. If you start young they get used to it and feel far more comfortable discussing questions with you. I have a 10 year old neighbor who is always telling me what she heard from her friends. The kind of warped definitions and ideas that come out of a 10 year old are incredible. I don't want my kids full of misinformation because they are afraid to talk with me about sex. You don't have to dive right into blow jobs. You don't start your 5 year old with calculus, he can't wrap his brain around it. You start with addition and build from there as they mature. There's no reason sex should be different. Jen Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  12. Considering that a lot of 12 year olds are having sex, my kids are going to have it just part of life, normal conversation, not some taboo secret thing. They need to be aware of what is going on so they can make good choices for themselves. Talk about a thread hijack though. Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  13. Naaah, not your misinterpretation. When I read that I took it the same way as you did. Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  14. The wall street journal apparently can't read direct documentation from the FDA. Below is the letter from the FDA to Pfeizer... http://www.fda.gov/cder/warn/2004/12726.pdf The letter states only that the ads 'suggest' things that the drug does not do. Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  15. This is not remotely true. The FDA has nothing to do with how suggestive things are, for one thing, that is the FCC. The FDA is trying to have the ads pulled because they promise things that the drug does not do (increase sex drive) and does not mention the potential side effects of the drug. Jen Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  16. http://www.cnn.com/2004/US/11/17/nude.newswoman.ap/index.html Here's another one the FCC will have a blast with. Naked ancorwoman. Got lots of ratings though
  17. This would kill me. I drive 200 miles per day for my commute to work. 1000 per week, 52000 per year. Even at $0.01 a mile, that's a lot of extra cash I'd have to be shellling out. Jen Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  18. There is a gorgeous sky overhead, minimal wind, my new rig is ready, I have a 2 hour break right now (slow day) AND THERE IS NO FREAKING PILOT!!! How's that for a bummer? Plus, the only 2 days I'll have free, Sun and Wed, it is supposed to rain/snow. *sigh* Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  19. Well, there were pics of the loony who decided to convert the lions to Christianity, can't see that it is any different with the Peta-ites trying to convince them to be vegetarians. Now we know that lions are spiritual vegetarians though.
  20. Fish probably do feel pain, just may not have as much self awareness as people do. Fish may be smart, pigs are smarter. And I still eat bacon. That won't change any time soon. Their whole arguement is just plain silly. People are omnivores, it is that whole circle of life thing. If they are against eating meat, maybe they should try convincing lions that a vegetarian diet is more ethical too. Jen Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  21. Ummmm, so why the hell are you typing? Shouldn't your hands be doing other things? Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  22. I've been in the Remax balloon. I have very very very very very high up connections with Remax, so hoping that once I'm waaaaay farther along in skydiving I can pull a few strings and swing the balloon for a jump Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  23. The person asking the question has 26 jumps in 2 years. That's a very far cry from 400 jumps a year with travel involved. There is a big difference between a weekend local jumper and one who travels all over the place frequently to jump, who competes, etc. It's a basic question of priorities. Where does jumping fall, where does the SO fall, and can the two coexist. There is no one answer, each person is different and has to decide this for themselves. The person asking this question needs to soul search for himself. All of our answers are basically irrelavent. Jen Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  24. For the record, I wasn't scared, just concerned. But I also supported Chad's jumping habit and NEVER asked him to quit. I also expressed an interest in jumping from the start. I still am a little uneasy when he jumps, but love my own. Such a double standard. To Chad's credit, I didn't jump regularly until after we had been together almost 2 years. He always made it very clear that no matter what, I came first. Jen Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
  25. Sexy is the dinner already finished when I walk in the door from the two hour commute home. It is the hug that greets me every night and starts each day. It's the way he moves and smiles. It is the certainty of knowing that his heart is completely mine forever, that I am his angel, and that my desires come before his own. It is every 'what do you want for dinner' conversation that never really ends since we both care more about each other than ourselves. It is feeling safe and taken care of. It is the memory of one of our first dates when he touched my chest with one finger and told me that the outside is nice, but he wants to know everything in my heart, that is what matters most to him. I could go on forever about everything I find sexy in a man. Perhaps what is sexiest is that every other man looks like a shadow in comparison to the light in my husband's eyes. Jen Do or do not, there is no try -Yoda
