I'm very sorry for your loss, but your young cousin probably caught the flu from another young child, not a healthy adult like me. And chances are, when your cousin got sick, the vaccine was not even available in her community. For the record, as of right now, neither vaccine is widely available in my area and the priority is for the people who really need it. Again- that's not me.

I'd prefer B cup over any larger! Wow- all you guys who are saying you prefer small breasts are doing HORRIBLE things to my self esteem! I guess I need to look into a breast reduction now! I feel so unfeminine!

I knew a DZO who made a point of watching tandem and student videos every week- maybe not all of them, but he made sure had had access to all of them and watched a pretty decent sampling. If he saw something he didn't like, he addressed it with the instructor directly. If he saw something he really didn't like, that TI was pulled from the rotation. Bottom line though, if you don't like something at the DZ where you work, and the DZO isn't willing to change it, you can either deal with it or go work somewhere else. Pretty much the same where ever you work or whatever you do, right?

Wow! Where is the eye roll icon when you really need it? This is the FLU, not small pox or polio. There are new and different strains of flu every year and no vaccine protects you from all of them. The good news is, for most people, the flu is more of an inconvenience than anything else. If you're in a high risk group, get the vaccine (if it is available, anyway.....), if you work with the public, specifically people in those high risk groups, it is also probably a good idea to get the vaccine. If you are a healthy adult who rarely gets sick and doesn't fall into those categories, why not save the vaccine for someone who really needs it? The best way to avoid spreading the flu is to stay home when you are sick.

Well the small guy can make me a sammich when I am done with BOB Fixed it for you!

Also true but I'm basing this on volume. What are the odds that ALL of them are lying?

Hers are real.

One possibility is that he's simply a scoundrel who compulsively ignored his marriage vows. Another is that she cheats, too. Another is that he only began to cheat after the marriage had degraded to nothingness at best, or a nightmare at worst. I sure as hell don't know. I don't think most people do. Just based on the number of skanks coming out of the woodwork to claim they banged Tiger Woods, I would say he's been cheating all along, the marriage was about something besides love, the wife knew all about the cheating and didn't mind until it became public knowledge. One affair might take a wife by surprise- this many? No freaking way she didn't know. What I find really hard to believe is that everyone is all over the cheating but most people seem to think its OK if she attacked him with golf clubs and nearly killed him.

I'm not sure I buy these poll results. I'm wondering about all those "never touch the stuff" votes........... Most "fast food" places offer some healthy/ healthier options. But of course, those healthier options like salads tend to cost more than the cheeseburgers and fries. Most restaurants tend to serve portions that are too large, and loaded with fat and sodium. Just because you are sitting down to eat it and it is being freshly prepared doesn't make it any better for you. At least you can get detailed nutritional information from the fast food chains. Anyway, it isn't about where you eat. What you eat and how much you eat are way more important in the long run.

I didn't know peanut butter came in a can ...........

We had a BC at our DZ. For a long time, he was convinced that it stood for "Before Cessna". The truth came out one evening when a sensitive individual noticed he was sitting near the cooler and said, "Hey Butt Crack, get me a beer!" (He's a heavy set guy who used to pack in sweat pants- that's how he earned the nickname....)

Geez! One naked deck dive (and a tee shirt to commemorate it) and this poor guy is labeled for life............

I thought it was code for Skid Marks .............

Didn't she get enough revenge by pounding on him with his own golf clubs? He ought to divorce her and and get a restraining order - instead he's going to pay her to stay with him because he's too proud to admit his wife beat him up.

I had tears in my eyes reading that myself. I've been there more than once and it is never easy letting go and saying goodby, even when you know you are doing the right thing.

sigh.......... he posed a "what if?" question when he had no idea what was even wrong with the cat. He pulled that $4,000.00 number out of his butt and never said that he didn't have the money or that spending that kind of money would have a serious impact on his finances. I don't think anyone should let their children go hungry or miss a mortgage payment in favor of vet bills. But, when you decide to have a pet, you need to realize that you are making a long term commitment to that animal and that caring for a dog or cat can be very expensive. If the OP can't afford to take care of this cat, he shouldn't get another kitten or any other pet. The first year you have a kitten can easily cost $1,000.00 between the initial vet visits, vaccines and getting him or her fixed. That's for a healthy animal whether you get it for free from a neighbor, adopt it from a shelter or buy it from a pet store or breeder.

I had a cat with a heart murmur- he had cardiomyopathy (sp?). The initial testing and annual cardiologist visits (yes, there ARE cardiologists for cats!) were not cheap, but the medicine they put him on that kept him happy, healthy and active for several years was really cheap and I got it at the regular drug store. I think those extra years I had with him were worth it- he was a great cat. (Also a "mutt" adopted from the local animal hospital for free ...... )
-
I think the poll/ question is flawed because you really don't know what is wrong with the cat, the cost of the treatment or long term prognosis. I wouldn't make a decision like that without knowing all those things first. Start with taking the cat to the vet and make decisions from there. (as far as I know there isn't any surgical treatment for arthritis in a cat and not much they can do for pain- there are more options for dogs ......)

I'm surprised your employer help out for as long as they did. Welcome to this century! Seriously, I have a hard time remembering when this stuff wasn't done on line. You'll get used to it and like it eventually! Of course, no one likes the "log on now or lose your benefits" ultimatum!

Too many to list, past and present. There are a lot of amazing female vocalists out there. Its just mind boggling that with all that talent out there, people still pay money to see no talent pop tarts like Britney Spears and Ashlee Simpson.

OK, seriously- if you feel the need to ask then maybe you ought to re-think the whole "hook up" thing anyway. Hook ups and one night stands can be risky - if you are voluntarily participating then who are you to pass judgement on your partner?
-
Who said? Go back to the very first post in this thread. He was specifically asking about "hook ups" which makes it a stupid, unreasonable question and as such, ANY answer is fair game.
-
Seriously?? Is that ever even a question these days? We're not talking about committed exclusive relationships here.
-
I didn't say YOU were a "write off" but you did write the guy off after just one date even though you say you had a really good time. You even said you didn't think it was worth your time to be friends with him. Sorry, but that's a pretty big sign that you aren't open to a new relationship right now, IMO. "Chemistry" has a way of finding you when you are open and ready for it, but it doesn't always happen on the first date. Just something to think about ..........
-
You know, I think there is a difference between not settling and not giving something a chance. Writing off a guy after just one date- especially a "good" date - falls under the 2nd category. I also think its a sign that you aren't open to or ready for a relationship right now, and there is nothing wrong with that. Still, I think its wrong to blame the guy or pull the "no chemistry" card.
