i know this is a stupid question because the answer is obvious, but if a person was born a male and gets transgender surgery to turn into female will that person go to heaven as a male or female if they died saved?

i think they will go to heaven with the gender they were born with.

GrreatTeacher

Nope. There's neither male nor female in heaven, at least that was the story years ago.

Who knows? They might've changed that along with everything else recently, though.

last month i got caught by my wife after a late night out with her (and some drinks).

i guess i am evil.. just wondering if anyone else has had this misfortune.. rub a dub.

Yes, tiki, watch out for poison ivy and always face uphill.

When I was very little, I often made midnight bathroom trips. One night I mistook the laundry hamper for the toilet, lifted the lid, and peed in it.

Boy, I was in trouble in the morning. Sleepwalking and peeing don't mix

Aw, that's so sad. I've actually never watched a horse race, either.

But, one time we had an assembly at a race track in Delaware, and they would exercise the horses before the program began in the morning which was kind of nice.

Some of my inlaws like to go to the Preakness mostly because it's a large party in the infield. You can't even see the race because you're in the middle of the track!

The Kentucky Derby?

Up here in Maryland, we're getting ready for the Preakness.

Anybody up farther getting ready for the Belmont Stakes?

it's not really a funny subject, our getting old and our bodies falling apart.

sure, as the saying goes, hard work won't kill you, but it can wear out your body.

Yes, I'm in the US. I've looked online and it appears that I can get CLR at home improvement stores like Home Depot and Lowe's. Funny they don't sell it at the grocery store where I buy all the other cleaners in my life. I might pick some up when I go to get some annuals to plant next weekend.

As far as Shower Power is concerned, it must be good stuff because it's currently out of stock! I'll keep my eye on this site for when it comes back in stock.

I'll open up the window, turn on the ventilation fan, and don a hazmat suit. It will be epic, if only because of the "my crazy mom" pictures my son will post on the internet!

I've never heard of CLR, either the yellow spray bottle or the little gray jug variety.

It does not appear on the local grocery store shelves. Where does one find some? I'm willing to try anything!

Oh, and about your tub being so clean you could sleep in it: just because you can...

;)

Well, yes, Coco, the metaphorical is derived from the literal!

My dad had them as well when he was a child, but true to the name, his went away as an adult.

The doctors haven't dismissed me, but the only treatment available is NSAID pain relievers. Ibuprofen usually works well, but, of course, it isn't preventive, and I continue to have further episodes.

Ibuprofen was a prescription drug when I was a child. Thank god it's been over-the-counter for years now. It truly does help me get through daily life.

Oh, and if you (or Snowbird) have any advice on scrubbing tubs, I would love to hear it. We put in a new oversized tub that holds more water, but also more soap-scum, and the scrubbing is getting tedious. Surely there's a professional hack? Oven cleaner? Sponges strapped to the feet? A maid? It gets dirty quicker than the old one, too. Maybe because it's acrylic rather than fiberglass?

I'm putting way too much mental effort into this!

Maybe I should just close the shower curtain!

Happy Saturday!
