  If Santa Claus really showed up... then I would be thrilled and I would want to sit on his lap and have a very long conversation about all the 35 years of Christmas's I missed and how sad I was as a little girl about all that. he'd be my chubby Santa therapist.

  What would you say if your Mom (whom you really loved) finally decided to come over to your house for a visit after not talking to you for 11 years because you were disfellowshipped and says the J.W.'s got it all wrong.

  Technology - Reuters 'Thinking Cap' Controls Computer in New Experiment Mon Dec 6,10:36 PM ET Technology - Reuters WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Four people were able to control a computer using their thoughts and an electrode-studded "thinking cap," U.S. researchers reported on Monday. ........................ Well, this would be kind of a cool now wouldn't it. I can think of a lot of people that would like an electrode-studded "thinking cap". LOL I did read most of the article Seatle Nice Guy, and it will be really useful for artificial arms, legs etc. Special K

  Here goes the story:

  When some things are meant to be..they're really meant to be!

  Not even "Law and Order"(the T.V. Show) would attempt to capture this mess. This is an unbelievable twist of fate!!!

  At the 1994 annual awards dinner given for Forensic Science, AAFS, President Dr. Don Harper Mills astounded his audience with the legal complications of a bizarre death. Here is the story"

  On March 23, 1994 the medical examiner viewed the body of Ronald Opus, and concluded that he died from a gunshot wound to the head. Mr. Opus had jumped from the top of a ten-story building intending to commit suicide. He left a note to this effect indicating his despondency. As he fell past the ninth floor, his life was interrupted by a shotgun blast passing through a window, which killed him instantly.

  Neither the shooter nor the deceased was aware that a safety net had been installed just below the eigth floor level to protect some building workers, and that Ronald Opus would not have been able to complete his suicide the way he had planned.

  "Ordinarily," Dr.. Mills continued, "Someone who sets out to commit suicide and ultimately succeeds, even though the mechanism might not be what he intended, is still defined as committing suicide. "That Mr. Opus was shot on the way to certain death, but probably would not have been successful because of the safety net, caused the medical examiner to feel that he had a homicide on his hands

  The room on the ninth floor, where the shotgun blast emanated, was occupied by an elderly man and his wife. They were arguing vigoursly, and he was threatening her with a shotgun. The man was so upset that when he pulled the trigger, he completely missed his wife, and the pellets went through the window, striking Mr Opus.

  When one intends to kill subject "A" but kills subject "B" in the attempt, one is guilty of the murder of subject "B". When confronted with the murder charge, the old man and his wife were both adamant, and both said that they thought the shotgun was not loaded. The old man said it was a long-standing habit to threaten his wife with the unloaded shotgun. He had no intention to murder her. Therefore, the killing of Mr. Opus appeared to be an accident; that is assuming the gun had been accidentally loaded.

  The continuing investigation turned up a witness who saw the old couple's son loading the shotgun about six weeks prior to the fatal accident. It transpired that the old lady had cut off her son's financial support and the son, knowing the propensity of his father to use the shotgun threateningly, loaded the gun with the expectation that his father would shoot this mother.

  Since the loader of the gun was aware of this, he was guilty of the murder even though he didn't actually pull the trigger. The case now becomes one of murder on the part of the son for the death of Ronald Opus.

  Now comes the exquisite twist...

  Further investigation revealed that the son was, in fact, Ronald Opus. He had become increasingly despondent over the failure of his attempt to engineer his mother's murder. This led him to jump off the ten-story building on March 23rd, only to be killed by a shotgun blast through a ninth story window. The son Ronald Opus, had actually murdered himself. So the medical examiner closed the case as a suicide.

  A true story from the associated Press, (Reported by Kurt Westervelt)

  ....

  Certainly sounds like an episode of CSI (Crime scene Investigation) T.V. show to me. I cannot verify its authenticity but wow..what a twist of fate.

  Hi Min

  Good job in deflecting his probes.

  Figureitout summed it up,

  There are a lot of good people in the orginization that care for your well being, they are doing what in their hearts is best for you and that should be well recieved in my opinion. How can you fault anyone who is caring enough to try to look out for you. On the flip side there are a lot of mean-spirited people who just want you to confess everything so they can finally get you DF'ed.. Sad but true.

  Hi Bem

  I'm off line for a few days and look what happens.

  broken ribs are painful along with all the other pains that an accident can invoke.

  I remember an accident where I didn't seem hurt at all until... the next day. Then I thought I was gonna die. Everything hurt!.

  Lay back, take care of yourself.

  and bummer about your car. You never get the true value to you from an Insurance Company.

  I have a new car picked out for you I'll try to get a close friend of mine to put it up on here for you.

  love and hugs
