Of the people I meet that apparantly have ADHD I estimate that figure to be correct

I think you can buy the goldmember via Bonehead Composites website. EDIT: www.boneheadcomposites.com/goldmember.htm Scroll down and click for list of dealers

I read them yet all anyone seems to want to tell me is how it is real. I know that. But 75% of diagnosis are bullshit. My annoyance doesn't lie with genuine sufferers but with shitbags who get a doctor to diagnose them as having it so they've got that wonderful label which they believe will absolve them of all responsibility. Thats the approach the parents take too. Got an unruly child, get them diagnosed then its no longer your fault! You arent a bad parent, instead elevating to the respectful position of carer. BULLSHIT! Maybe its different in the UK but our GPs are so busy AND scared of getting sued that when under pressure from parents etc they will write out pretty much anything that sounds about reasonable to get rid of them. I recall seeing the main doctor behind the 'discovery' and treatment of ADHD on the TV and his utter dissapointment at how its being used today. He tried to help genuine sufferers who, as LawRocket stated, can really unlock their potential with such medication. What would be interesting is to see a map with all the diagnosed people highlighted on it. I guarantee it will highlight our troubled council estates as a high proportion. Whereas being a condition you'd expect it to be more random.

I hate paperwork. Luckily I have a jumbo sized cross shredder in my office. All unreasonable enquiries get 'filed' in there before anyone else gets to see them

Just hope you dont get the IRS person who can't be fucked and files it in the bin

They probably still serve them out the trolley and take the cash out their wallets Bodies make an awful mess, if I was an airline company manager or whatever I wouldn't want corpses on my plush 1st class seats. They ooze all sorts of crap... literally!

You're right. It is real. I realise that. Your other observations are correct too however many nuisance children are diagnosed with ADHD. There is pressure from some 'parents' (I say parents, they were just present at conception) to have their children labelled, prescribed a course of drugs to calm them down and allow them to claim the benefits they can receive of the governement. I'm going to sound old fashioned now but I bet if half the children with ADHD (supposedly) had a well balanced diet, regular exercise, decent parental control and role models they would be fine. Funny how its seems to disproportionately be the bad families that have affected children. The ones that feed their kids junk food and kick them on the streets unsupervised only to return home when its time for bed. My point is ADHD is often used as an excuse for bad behaviour where really there is no problem other than the child is a little shit and needs a good smack

It's funny how if you pray or fart or sneeze you get jumped on and they divert the aircraft yet if someone dies they carry on regardless

That looks nice, I was playing on PDs website and made some similar designs. When the time comes I'll consider it. My current canopy is black and red in alternate cells. Although nothing in the air or on the ground is red I appreciate its not the easiest canopy to spot.

Apparantly thats frowned upon or something

Funnily enough they just started work on my rug. I was excited to see that it had been received. I too hunted my own. It makes it more special

Thats interesting, thanks. I was thinking of traditional bright yellow (lemon) or orange as per high viz clothing. Damn handy if you land off and hurt yourself too, should be easily visible from the air.

I think you've been ripped off. It looks like someones grafted on a dogs head

Good point

I can't believe the amount of canopy collisions that have happened recently. My next canopy is going to be so bright you'll be able to see it from any orientation and no matter what it is silhouetted by, be it clouds, blue sky, the sun or the ground. I'm beginning to think bright is better than chic when it comes to canopy design.

Done and dusted.... Breakfast made, Box of chocolates, Old skool CD of shite she likes, Beautiful card. What more can she want!? You may have noticed I'm not very imaginitve

Stumbled across this poem and it touched me *Hands back man card* I have been where you fear to go, I have seen what you fear to see, I have done what you fear to do, All these things I’ve done for you. I am the one you lean upon, The one you cast your scorn upon, The one you bring your troubles to, All these people I’ve been for you. The one you ask to stand apart, The one you feel should have no heart, The one you call the man in blue, But I am human just like you. And through the years I’ve come to see, That I’m not what you ask of me, So take this badge and take this gun, Will you take it? Will anyone? And when you watch a person die, And hear a battered baby cry, Then so you think that you can be, All those things you ask of me? ... that is all

I think its great that they are making this level of investment into medical research for 2 reasons. Firstly it will help those that may genuinly benefit from medicinal products derived from cannabis and make them free to obtain such items without fear of legal repurcussions through the correct medical channels. Secondly, people found in posession of 'street cannabis' as opposed to cannabis derived products will have no excuse.

In that other thread it looked like you were exaggerating YOUR 'mannerisms'

Crime figures will plummet too

That wasn't me , I was in the cupboard. That cheating cow!

This is really handy if you want to find out where someone is, just tap in their mobile phone number and it'll send message to the satellite and then show you on the map where it is... http://www.sat-gps-locate.com

Why are most the DZ girls I have seen munters?

Funnily enough what is apparantly the worlds largest legal cannabis factory is right on my doorstep. I don't know where but have seen pics (its a government thing) No idea what they use it for though as I don't believe cannabis is used for any medicinal purpose in the UK. Quick search revealed some info to substantiate what I was told: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/110704.stm

*sigh* When you leaving again?
