I absolutely LOVE Stargate and Stargate Atlantis....can't live without watching them. Besides those, Lost and Monk. That's about it for now, although I know someone who wants me to watch The Green Wing because it's quite funny I guess (hi sweetie)

Your favourite place....
by diamondblue1974 indo you have a favourite place in the world...if so where is it, why and do you have photos?.
mine has to be nisyros (a very small greek island near kos); i last visited there some years ago and ever since i was captivated by its beauty and tranquility.
in short its a volcanic island but unspoiled by tourism; the people are amazing and so down to earth.. take a look.

Right now I have to be content just talking to my TIGER, but hopefully in the near future, my favorite place will be by his side forever, wherever that may be

What song best epitomizes what keeps you going
by Lady Lee ini know a lot of song threads have been posted but i am interested in what and why a particular song moves you to keep going when you have lost so much.. if possible find the lyrics to the song and post them along with your what song and why it was so important.
as a kid i had an old 78 record player that i had to wind up to play (i did say old.
) there was one old record that had a song by ed ames 'the impossible dream" i was in foster care and had no contact with my family.

my cat died today... i need consoling...
by theinfamousone inthis is the guy that sat on my razor blades the one time i was thinking of cutting myself... this is the guy that everytime my dad beat me, would come to my room and lay with me... this is the guy that one time jumped into the bathtub with me while i was crying after a brutal beating, the cat hated water... this is a cat that was more family to me than my own father and mother combined... this was my best friend... .
today i had to do the hardest thing i ever did, i had to choose to have him put down... and as he fought the vet, and tried to bite her, i put my hand on his head, and he stopped struggling... and as they put the last needle into his leg, he purred until he died... the vet says she has never seen that before... this was my best friend and i had to kill him... fuck, im a baby, but i miss him soooo much.
the infamous one.

I am so sorry about the loss of your best friend. I know what you mean. They are family, they are friends, they are everything. They are always there for us when we need them and they are precious. I feel for you so much. I feel the same thing is going to happen to me some day soon with my 17 year old baby who has kidney failure now. She's still such a kitten in so many ways. She comforts me when I'm depressed and she knows when I don't feel well. What would we do without our furry family members? Have a hug and my sympathies infamousone!!!!

How do you feel about Tatoos?
by Fisherman ini feel very offended and distrurbed when i see people covered with tatoos.
some people have tatoos all over their bodies, even on their faces.
there are also tatoo programs on the tlc channel that children can watch without a forewarning before the show comes on.

Tonsillectomies?
by BlackSwan of Memphis inmy oldest is having her tonsils and adenoids out on monday.
the doctor will also be maybe putting tubes in her ears if sees that theres a problem, as he will be doing some work in her ears during the same surgery.. i've read all the information they've given us, doesn't seem like a huge deal.. i'm wondering though how many have either had their tonsils out as children and remember the experience or how many have had children who have the surgery.. i would just like to know from others what i might be able to expect.. any input?.

Black swan, I've heard that if you have them removed when you are younger it is better than if you were say in your 20's or older. So having them removed young is the better way to go I think. It's not too difficult to take care for one who had that done....I remember sleeping a lot and watching cartoons. I didn't want to eat too much either because of the sore throat afterwards. I think the worst thing for me was the sore throat and the medicine I had to take afterwards made me quite ill, so I vomited a lot. I now put that on my list of medicine's to stay away from

I had my tonsils removed when I was in the 4th grade. It hurt for awhile afterwards, but that is obvious. The actual surgery went well though, it's a fairly easy procedure I believe. I remember eating a lot of ice cream, jello and other soft cool foods. And everyone waited on me hand and foot. Oh, and for once in my lifetime, my sister was unconditionally nice to me. All in all, it was fine and I'm better off without them. I had strep throat for a year straight, so I don't have that problem anymore.
Hope everything goes well during the surgery. I'm sure it will

I can't wait to get my tat personally. I have wanted one for so long and now I will get one, when someone special goes with me to hold my hand
I agree fully with whoever it was that said "if you don't like tatoo's....don't look at them" That's it completely!!!! If I don't like seeing homosexuals kissing, I look away!!!! if it bothers you so much to see something, you pretend it isn't there. Obviously you won't be getting one yourself, but don't judge those of us who want one or already have one or more! It's not like people that have tat's are evil or that it will HURT you personally if someone else has them...quit being so judgemental! Many tatoo's are very beautiful and have meaning to those who wear them.
I can't stand people that say that something bothers them like this because it's so insignificant and it has no bearing on what you do in your life...does it?

Have you heard of this yet?
by Calico Ethel ini just talked to my mom (dub) yesterday, which was poorly timed (after there meeting).
she tells me that the speaker said in his talk that there are two sides in this world - jehovah's side and satan's side.
if you are not on jehovah's side, then you are on satan's side.

Thanks kerj...I think it's a good start too. But instead of telling her over the phone I may just write to her...what do you think? We both get really emotional and I don't want to argue with her either. Also, I think if I send her a letter then her and my dad can read it together, that way if she passes out, he'll be there to help her. I'm seriously not joking about that either. I think something bad will happen when I tell her about it because I'm her favored child out of the 3 and I think this will just kill her when I tell her how I feel. I know I'm just saying that because I've been putting it off for awhile now, but I'm dreading telling her it. I thought I could just go on and let her continue to talk all she wanted to about stuff, but I can't stand to hear it anymore and that's the only reason why I'm deciding to tell her now.

OH I also forgot to say how lucky I am that my mom is going to send me the new special tract they are out placing because I live in a secured apartment building....YEAH (note the sarcasm!!!) She also sent me the last book that they published and released at the D.C., but of course I haven't read it and must say that I won't. I think it's time to tell my mom that I don't plan on going back to meetings and that I don't want to hear anymore of this stuff she talks about because it's so unloving.
Any suggestions on how I should go about doing that without giving my mom a heart attack? I still love her, but this nonsense she talks about has to stop, it's too depressing.
