    a good cry

    (warning..... woman's view) Honestly I think more men should recognize that emotions should be expressed. Keeping feelings inside can just cause problems (mentally and physically) Crying can be a good thing.... But I hope for you that warmth and sleep will be a better thing soon. Karen
  5. Necessity is whatever it takes to make your life meaningful and happy. It is a selfish word because life is selfish. I live. It's my life. I am. Those are all selfish concepts but so vital to the experience of life. individuals have an inalienable right to pursue their own happiness based on their own values and they must be free to pursue their own self-interest as they choose. Under this code, people have no obligations to each other beyond that to respect the freedom and rights of other self-interested people. IF part of someones happiness includes helping the less fortunate, then they are invited to contribute as appropiate.... but it should not be a demand nor should they be coerced into charity with guilt. I truly resent the pictures that were displayed on several levels. 1. I did not concieve those poor children.... in fact, I have not concieved any children. Why should I be held to cover the choices that their parents have made? I would not expect others to pay for the children that I might someday concieve. 2. Additionally I feel that taking the pictures of them for the sake of guilting people is wrong too. Do these souls know that you are using their image for generating pity? 3. Contrasting human suffering to any type of luxury item is wrong... as stated above, look at your rig or eating at McDonalds or whatever you choose to spend your money on. Just because you don't value whatever vehicle that is doesn't mean that someone else shouldn't. And even what you value isn't worth the cost of pain any more that those rims are. I am saddened by the lives that those children have in front of them... but my hand did not in anyway force their existance. I will assist as I can (and do... how many others have donated 8 gallons- yes, gallons- of blood, donated hair on 4 seperate occasions -that's 8yrs of growth-, gone on two medical missions at my expense taking meds to give from part of my financing, sponsored and raised children that aren't by their blood) But to self-rightously post those two images as if you are so much better than those who might own that vehicle is just wrong. I have to ask ... what have you done for the smallest one on the right? "I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine." Ayn Rand '57 Karen
  6. Christian by belief, not by religion. Open and accepting in my spirituality. I enjoy nature and love to celebrate the change of seasons, believe that there is more to the story than we know in this existance, and understand that there is much that I do not understand.... So basically yes and no.
  7. You're entitled to your opinion, but this is not the right thread... not the right place. You boys over there have my support. F16 driver... carry on carrying on.
  8. Yeah, what she said. I'll third that. "ME TOO" from London! Stay safe. I'll 4th or 5th that... That'a really friggin cool. What number are we up to? Cuz I'll concur. 16's are so hot! I got to fly in the backseat of one when I was in college (ROTC) a few years back, and it was so much fun!! (but I do have to agree with who ever said the A10's were cuter) Be safe up there. And try not to get that jump in your log book... you wouldn't really be able to steer it well, and swooping.... rather unlikely. Karen
  9. I don't know if I would have a better chance with it being random or not. . . Still waiting, but soon I will know the answer. (Hopefully VERY soon)
  10. I will be flying into Ontario on Friday at 10:30am and getting a rental car. If anyone else is coming in near that time, let me know and we can arrange to drive to Elsinore together. Rosa, looks like it will be fun!!
  11. It's actually for a maternal fetal medicine fellowship... but if that doesn't work, then I get to look for a real job.
  12. "Do not try and kill the cat. That's impossible. Instead ... only try to realize the truth." "What truth?" "There is no cat." "There is no cat?" "Then you'll see that it is not the cat that dies, it is only yourself."
  13. Bump..... I hope to be flying in on Friday and spending the weekend in Sunny CA!!!! Probably looking at getting a hotel room or something.... no firm plans yet, but it always seems to work. Karen
  14. They are all wonderful and I think she is so lucky to have a friend like you!! But I think I like Karma #2 better... (just so cute!) and caption #1 Karen
  15. Be carefull with your statements... Some peopel got all offended on here a couple years ago with the bonsai kitten url.... Your felinicide arguments may stir the same controversy. ohhh.... so it's ok to kill kittens, but not a cat?
  16. OK.... I interviewed for a position in TX last week. I haven't heard back yet... probably not for another week or so. But it got me to thinking. Are you the type that HAS to know the answer (even if it will kill the cat), or can you live in the limbo of uncertainty?
  17. But remember the Rules of the RV There are grey water pipes and black water pipes.....
  18. I like annoying my GPS and hearing hal say "off route.... recalculating ..... off route...." and then I turn left just to piss her off again k.
  19. My score varied between 41 and 23 with 1 fireball depending on which questions I got. Questions on willingness vs. actual "hands on" experience was the difference.... Meaning, there's isn't much I wouldn't do.... just a bit selective with whom.
  20. mmmm..... mead..... good honey, gone bad almost as good as rum..... good sugar , gone bad
  21. I know you were asking Tauthler, but.... I think it's person dependant... not so much male/female. My older sister had a HARD time accepting that she had it and refused to treat it for a while (a bit of stubbornness).... whereas my younger sister took the news in stride, is trying to loose weight, watches her diet, and is trying to use oral meds to control it. It's how you deal with the diagnosis of a chronic lifelong disease that we don't yet have a good "cure" for that is the key. But until the cure... less traumatic treatments would be nice.
  22. Inhalable insulin would be an amazing forward step! For general information: There are two main types of Diabetes Mellitis (DM) -Type 1 is thought to be due to an infection or some problem making the pancreas incapable of producing enough insulin. You need to take insulin. NEED. Your body does not make it. -Type 2 is a form of insulin resistance. It is generally genetically predisposed, but whether and when you get it depends on the stress you put on your pancreas (weight stresses it a lot). You can try to decrease the insulin resistance by adjusting your diet, using oral meds or you might need insulin. Inhalable insulin is going to help lots of people. Many people with progressive DM-Type 2 don't manage it well because of the difficulty with the injections. My dad hated it, my older sister is only willing to do it now because she's pregnant (and as sister, I can "influence" her ways to do what she needs to better than her doctor.... read in "good family guilt.") But giving yourself a shot with every meal (short acting insulins) or even once a day (newer long acting insulins) can be a frustrating life. It impacts your start of the day, your family, your friends.... Then the kidneys start getting sick, and the eyes, and the extremities (toes, feet)... And as they get sicker, they get more frustrated. Hopefully this will help keep people in better control.
  23. Your results: You are Supergirl-- 93% Wonder Woman -- 83% Spider-Man -- 75% Robin -- 75% The Flash -- 75% Green Lantern -- 75% Iron Man -- 70% Superman -- 65% Catwoman -- 60% Lean, muscular and feminine. Honest and a defender of the innocent But.... I wanted to be the Tick!!! (or Kitty Pryde)
  24. Happy B-day.... but don't spit when you blow out the candles. Cuz then they could look at the DNA (kidding) Karen
