I still haven't. I have very little control with "the look." AND I was even raised as a good lil catholic girl on a full dosing of guilt and the look each day (ok... maybe not a full dosing... and maybe not EVERY day....) But I got the look and the "I'm so disappointed in you" many times... I love my mom dearly and she did a great job. I REALLY hated the look.

Feels that way! This weekend dz.com has been way too much grade school drama. ("what's your excuse?" "Quit pickin on me.") and not as much of the relaxed camaraderie and support. Don't know if people just didn't have enough fireworks or what... but all ya'all BE NICE. and - futuredivot.... sorry about your arm Injuries suck. I hope your body heals fast.

Good pic! I'm glad that you got a chance to jump and I hope that you enjoyed the holiday weekend! -I don't think Squeak was trying to offend anyone. I understood his answer as a screen name of one of the other dz.commers... not as a judgment of your current (or past) weight. (there is getting to be quite a bit of drama lately. people insulting others and twisting insults.... why can't we all just play nice and go jump?!)

It's only $10 in Kansas City.

& where did you see me mention ANYTHING about trauma to infants, besides in your head? or were you merely being self critical, in feeling thatany infant you deliver is automatically traumatized & assumed we would all think the same? I simply made reference to ways that the delivery process is sped-up or 'helped' along & an old fashioned method of getting the newly born infant to begin breathing on their own, by getting them cry. get glasses Alice, get glasses. nowhere did I say anything about trauma to infants. & I didn't expect you to apologize. you never can expect a side-blinder-wearing, hypocrit to do so. Do you always address debates by using insult and distraction? This is my understanding of the conversation above (and I'll use your quotes to make it easier for you) Spence: Diesel fuel jumped 14 cents here today. I want to kick someone in the nuts. Your comment back: I believe the address you'll need is 1900 Pennsylvania Ave. kick em once for me too. [To me, that comes across as "This sucks in my life - it's this persons fault. I want to hurt him"] Max's comment to you: Yeah, because the folks at the intersection of the IMF, the World Bank and George Washington University are the real evil speculators. Your reply back to him: I had a stroke several years ago that left me with a significant memory loss. what's your excuse? [Crazy] [My inference: "My memory sucks. It's the strokes fault." Totally ignoring that it's not a memory problem in the above post; it's a research issue. You wanted to put something cute and sassy down on the internet and didn't bother to research the info that you were typing. Not a memory issue at all... no one assumed that you had lived there or that you should have it in your long term memory. But to research and correctly post the address of the person whose balls you would like to kick... that is kind of expected if you want to discuss that sort of thing. And yes... you did use the cute little icon, so we should all lighten up cuz you weren't really attacking Max - and I shouldn't have defended someone whom I highly respected by countering your snide comments directed to him.... AND you did then start that NOBLE thread in the bonfire thanking all who had served and sacrificed, so that makes up for your callous remarks to him.] Long discussion between Amazon and Mike about: 1. The role of the President [when we all should know that the Presidents job is not to hold power, but to draw attention away from the real source of it. (and although President Bush might be good at that Zaphod Beeblebrox really is the best)] 2. Price fixing the price of gasoline [My thoughts on that part of the debate: By setting prices below market levels, the government of the 70's made it unprofitable for oil companies to respond to high prices as they normally would -- by increasing production. This led to inadequate supplies and fuel shortages. Then, rather than lifting the price controls, government tried to fix the problem by imposing allocation controls. Soon, we had centrally planned programs determining how much of various fuel types to produce, how much to send each state and how much various categories of purchasers were allowed to buy. And that all to similar to conditions in Atlas Shrugged where Reardon Metal is sale and distribution is controlled by the government.... and it kills the industry. Government control is NOT the answer to this problem. Personal responsibility and working within the system of capitalism. Not changing it to a system of communism. If you can't afford the gasoline - try to adjust your life to better fit within your mean. Carpool, bike, walk. Control your driving habits. Do something REAL. Whining about how it's Bush's fault isn't going to change your life.] You jump back in to this debate with a comment directly meant for me: bad day at the office? did you deliver a baby today with an attitude problem I comment that it's tacky to discuss birth trauma. I take my responsibility to my patients and their children VERY seriously and to see someone even mockingly slander my ability does annoy me. And to claim that the reason that I defended Max was because I had a bad day at the office. Again... it seems that you're crying "It's not my fault that I posted an inflammatory and insulting comment.... it MUST be yours." And your post above (I'll even re-paste it here):I didn't expect you to apologize. you never can expect a side-blinder-wearing, hypocrit[sic] to do so [My inference: I can't logically discuss this topic with you, so I will just personally attack you by saying you wear blinders and that you're a hypocrite.] What's your take on this discussion? I'm really curious.

um let's see I was only off by one digit (9 in place of a 6) referring to an address I have only visited twice in my life to the best of my recollection. after having a had a near fatal stroke (in fact should have been fatal, according to the shocked attending MDs & surgeons) that left me unable to retrieve a great deal of lost memory. including; an entire block of years, mid 90's thru 2000, from which I can recall almost nothing. including, without reference to documents I may have from that time, my own address from that period. I find it immensely ironic, that I'm attacked regarding this, by the one person here that is a medical doctor, as if it were an excuse & not a legit, reason for memory difficulty bad day at the office? did you deliver a baby today with an attitude problem that tugged on your head, with giant medical salad tongs & slapped you back, on your ass in act of rebelion & defiance? it wasn't me dr. rim shot. & re: 'he had his leg amputated......' so can he still wiggle his toes that used to be 'stored' on the amputated limb? as you openly mock the fact that I have difficultly recalling memory that used to be stored in the brain region 'cut-off' & damaged from my stroke. or would you instead rather concede, we are talking apples & oranges here. & your comment as such was uncalled for? DR. I concede nothing and apologize for nothing. I found your comments to him "uncalled for" and your comments to me insulting. You can hide behind any excuses you want, but my opinion of you isn't changed by this paragraph. And to further comment: YOU were the one that asked Max what his excuse was. And now you are trying to pin that onto me. I was not trying to justify or qualify your "excuse." I was simply stating that he does not hide behind them. Your confusingly insulting comments about him wiggling his toes in the above comment?! I don't know - should I include that callous comment in your memory loss "reason." Likewise, referring, even jokingly, to birth trauma to infants is rather disgusting.

Max doesn't use excuses. He suffered a significant trauma in the war, lost his leg, did the whole long rehab thing.... still jumps and even did a run with the President.... the one that lives at 1600 Pennsylvania that you wish to kick in the nuts. No excuses.

Biologically, she's still XX - female Functionally, she still has uterus/ovaries - female Structurally (externally at least), he has male pattern hair growth, minimal breast tissue and not looking in the knickers, could pass for a "he" - male? Mentally, he thinks of himself as a he, he has a wife... better male than some. Legally, He had a judge determine that he is a HE.

I wish the couple VERY well. It sounds like they REALLY wanted to hold and raise this young life. - I just find it amazing what major surgery can do - "He" used to be in the Miss Hawaii Teen USA pageant

I'm more of a lover than a fighter - after all sex is central to my job.... but I probably know a bit more about the war side of business than most. I don't want to hurt you... but if you insist, I can dust off the riding crop.

Think of the fights over who gets "that" seat if it's a Skyvan!!! ME!

When I saw the title I thought GA Precision laws?! I know George was a cop, but he didn't MAKE laws.

What a clever bunny.... cute but quite naughty. What lengths would -you- go to if you were that hungry? ltdiver I say again "cute, but quite naughty"

What a clever bunny.... cute but quite naughty.

There was an open "we're making too much garbage with shit from 'B&L' type mega stores". . . but don't worry, we can just make robots and in ..... 700 years, it will all be fixed again.

So... you just trying to start a new club? or start a new fight? or, with this appeal to skydivers, a new flight club?

I was also amused by the underlying statement about obesity and laziness in the population. WALL-E was cute.

1. Kinda bad bike accident while wearing a tube top. I guess I have a bad habit of not wearing appropriate protective attire. Close head injury, broken arm, and road rash that was NOT fun!!!!!! 2. Kickball is dangerous - broke my arm in 7th grade. Totally annoyed the principal - Sister Luicille Marie - by interrupting her day of torturing small harmless catholic students.

I'm on call... so no rum for me. - but you can have my serving. btw, how did your ortho visit go today?

Happy Birthday!!!! May the year bring you much happiness!

Happy Birthday!!! May it be filled with choas and kitties... but ... now I'm confused here... do I tell you to "kill kitties" or not?

Happy Birthday!!! OK... so you don't really know me... I can still wish you a Happy Birfday!

Happy Birthday!!! I hope you get EVERYTHING that a "good" birthday boy deserves.

So is it prostitution or slavery that seems to be legal in Florida? And isn't prostitution generally considered "renting" not "owning"? My other question is why didn't she just go to the dropzone to find her next ex-husband? There are a few to choose from down there (dropzones AND ex-husbands)
