from the article: "According to data collected by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 3,213 couples were hospitalized for such problems across the country in 2015 and 3,789 in 2016." really wtf? I suspect we've all had a vagina around our neck at one point or another. Further, I suspect there was an associated hospital visit in most of those cases. Define "we've all." lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

Done! lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

This is good advice; always look where you want to be. It works on so many levels. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

Well, hello. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

ratipede That's almost as bad as a Rat King! lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

So far, it's winning. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

I do live on what is basically a tree-covered canyon. lol I haven't caught it, yet. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

Mouse. Four days ago, a little rodent decided to make itself known. It's the first one in seventeen years. There were a few,( initially, due to construction,of the house), but I deaded them (yes, that's what I did--it's a technical term) but none since. But the darn thing is elusive . My cats are super vigilant (not really sure why but ...). Not sure how it got in or what it's going to eat, but it should be fun .... Just stay away from my cars...... lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

Googly eyes! lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

It's snow now (assuming because it's dark) but the sound is still intact. I wonder if the flag (or pole) will be there in the morning? Anybody know if this is still manned (since it is now a B&B)? I hope not, because it can't possibly worth anybody's life. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

That flag looked new this morning. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

I am now getting email notification. Thanks! lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

Why don't you just post it in SC where it belongs? Strange and ridiculous connection, anyway. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

This post is too vague to even contemplate. Actually I can guess-- a couple fingers on the wrong keys during the title? Although where you are and what octane you are buying is anybody's guess. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

Thanks for the giggle; sometimes I wonder about all that, as well. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

Just, wow. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

Glad no one died. I have a special place in my heart for DC-3/C-47. I made my first jump out of one, and hundreds more out of one. My first jump was also my first airplane ride. I think I had five or six take-offs before I ever landed in a plane. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

I train my cats. It just takes a lot of time, patience, repetition.... and a LOT of treats. My first one was only with me a couple of years, but behaved much like a dog. My current one (seal-point Siamese) has been with me 14 years. I started his training the day I brought him home when he was 8 weeks old. Jack knows: -sit -lay down -play dead -high 5 -get up/down -"kiss on the nose" (he touches his nose to mine) He also comes when I call him (or at least answers me so I can find him if he doesn't want to get up), and if he's awake, greets me at the door when I come home. He also knows how to show me what he's asking for (and usually asks politely). If I'm not looking at him, he will gently reach out with his paw and tap my arm or cheek. If he's more desperate for my attention, he talks to me. I ask him to show me what he wants, and he either uses the expression of a couple of regular requests (asking to play, asking to be fed), or he starts to walk away and turns to make sure I'm following him, then looks back at me when he reaches the thing (sometimes the door) that he wants. Cats are smart. They just need to know you "really mean it" when you're trying to get them to do something. (or, yours were really smart, and totally had you trained! ) I completely forgot about the ones that knew about sitting. I'd make them sit before I gave them what they wanted (which was usually to be let inside) until I told them to sit along with a finger pointing down (I have glass doors). Those cats would sit with just a finger gesture. I don't have the patience to train cats any more. I'm getting too old for this. I do have a relatively new cat that is the hall monitor of cats. She gets along with all the cats when outside, but if one of the outside cats manages to get in, she will harass that poor thing until she drives it outside, or corners it so I can toss it out. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

Yep. They do whatever the fuck they want. You can train them not to do certain things, but when you're not home, they don't care. You just hope you don't come home to a mess, or your place burned down, or something. I've had cats that were leash trained, and one who would fetch. You have to start them on the leash when they are small kittens and do it frequently, or they will refuse when they get older. The one who fetched would only fetch a certain kind of mouse toy; it had to be made with real rabbit fur and rattled, but she would bring it back and drop it just like a dog and wait for you you to throw it again. I usually got tired of the game before she did. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

As far as I can tell, her new pic is two years newer than the old one (and her last post). lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

Funny! My first though is that is how someone in West Virginia would drive, not Virginia; then I realized it was the other Norfolk. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

Yes, but her avatar pic is different than the last time she posted. She hasn't abandoned us entirely, evidently. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

Very glad to hear this good news! Sad about the SEAL, but rest assured, his sacrifice wasn't in vain. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

Yeah, but some people jump at very small dropzones where there is no place to camp.Has there ever been a DZ in the history of DZs that ever gave grief to someone who pitched a pup tent and slept due to intoxication? They may have woken them up early the next morning and told them to pack it up. That may qualify as grief however. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9

I hope this is true (hopefully the word recover is a translation issue), and this is also (in my ignorance) what I said would be the most likely way that any good outcome may happen given the constraints. I pray this is what is happening. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9
