  i'm watching this show on vh1.

  the hosts are adrianna and christopher from the sopranos!

  they declared the end to certain things from 2002. my personal favorite was that people using cell phones will no longer be allowed to use the phrase "can you hear me now" amen brother.

  Clearly, these jeans are not for all body types. Where the low riders if you must ladies, but watch out for the tingle. Got Hiphuggers? Beware Of Tingly Thighs Doctor: Wearing Loose Clothing Alleviates Symptom

  POSTED: 4:45 p.m. EST January 8, 2003

  Hiphuggers might be "in" in women's fashion, but they might leave you with tingly thighs.

  Ontario Dr. Malvinder Parmar treated three "mildly obese" women between the ages of 22 and 35 who complained of tingly thighs, he said in a letter in the January issue of the Canadian Medical Association Journal.

  The women had all worn tight low-rise trousers -- also called hiphuggers -- the previous six to eight months. Parmar said the jeans were pinching a nerve, and all three women recovered after four to six weeks of avoiding hiphuggers and wearing loose-fitting clothing.

  The tingling feeling, known as meralgia paresthetica, has been associated with wearing various garments and accessories, such as wallets and tight jeans, that compress a nerve.

  Parmar warned physicians that now that hiphuggers are back in fashion, they should expect to see more of this type of condition. He said that simple observation of patients' dressing habits might provide a clue to the diagnosis

  I have discovered the greatest thing about shopping online. Everything is available. I live in Kansas, and we don't have the largest selection at our shops here, but you can shop online, and see everything that's availabe. i also have become a total addict of Yahoo games. I start classes again next week, and I hope I can pull myself away from the online dominoes. I better or I'm not gonna be in school for long.Come on guys, I know you have to have a wealth of knowledge out there of some great sites. Share some. Bump

  Posting reunion photo soon with my granddaughter

  by Nancy K in

  dear friends, i am relatively 'new' on this website, but i have been posting about not being allowed to see my granddaughter and the 'shunning' thing..i was just going to start a court proceding(my husband is an attorney)to try and get visitation, then my dad passed away..many of you wrote to me and showered me with much needed support.

  thru my dad's 'passing', i had to contact my daughter and we had a long 'talk' and she wasn't 'shunning' me after all..my sister, who is a "double-life" witness told my daughter some terrible lies about me which were ridiculous, and my daughter at that time was being treated for depression, so she didn't know what to think(as my sister is a witness, and she naturally assumed she was being truthful)..i have a damaged neurological system from 8 months of very high-dose chemo, at times i use a cane, i have chronic pain, etc.,but it is all from my illness..my sister was telling my daughter i was on drugs, and yes i am on medication, but not medication that gets one 'high', this is medication i must be on for life.

  so, thru my dad's passing, a miracle has happened, after 2 years of missing my granddaughter, in a few weeks i will be spending an entire weekend with her and my grandson whom i haven't seen, so my daughter and her husband can have some 'alone' time!!

  Could you trust someone who has been sexually abus

  abused to babysit for your children???

  i was thinking about this today, in light of my son's well being, being questioned.

  stats show that people who have been sexually abused go on to later abuse someone else.

  I think that most parents look for any kinda red flag in their mind. I don't have any children yet, but I would have to say honestly, that if I didn't know the person, I might be concerned. My best male friend was sexually abused as a child and my best girlfriend was physically abused, and I would trust either one of them completely with my child. I think the bottom line is when you aren't familiar with someone, basically everything about them is suspect.

  Ban Bread Not Guns

  by ThiChi in

  2. friends

  a very outrageous example of how one can use statistics for their own agenda: .

  1. more than 98 percent of convicted felons are bread users.

  2. fully half of all children who grow up in bread-consuming households score below average on standardized tests.

  How great that you guys are that much in love, even after a year together. I agree with everyone else, I think we can keep you busy here. Also, you know I checked out that yahoo collapse game. I can't remember who, but somebody started a thread about it a awhile back. It's addictive. Get on it, and time will fly. Before you know it, your sweetie will be home,and you will have a new hobbie.

  Breaks my heart

  the other day a foster mom asked if she could talk to me for a moment.

  it seems a little boy i become more than close to here at the school will be up for adoption very soon, as his parents will not be allowed to have contact with him after years worth of thier case being reviewed due to child abuse and neglect.

  she asked me if i would like to raise him and adopt him as my own.

  Mr. Moe, I think I can understand your sadness. Some people just have a real heart for kids, especially ones that are abused and neglected. You want to take them all in, and love them. You did the responsible thing though by realizing that you couldn't really provide for him. I have really been contemplated getting involved in foster care. It makes me so sad to see so many children with so much turmoil in their young lives. I have always wanted to help in some way, if even for a short time. I know that you are not a believer, but I will be praying for this little boy, that he will be placed in a wonderful home with loving parents. He is lucky even now to have you in his life, if even only as an adult figure who has been able to show him love. You are such a kind person with a big heart. People like that always end up feeling more pain, cause they take on the weight of so much besides themselves.
