Hey Ron. You just have to get right back on that horse again. Start fresh right now by eating the right foods in the right amounts, and exercise, exercise, exercise!! You can do this, man!!

Well.....of course I'm going to have to check the powder room. Does any powdering ever go on in there?

That's right baby. I'm bringing the crude!! I specialize in crude innuendo, puns, fake farting noises, and all other form of "simpleton" humor. No thanks necessary....it's what I do *cue Superman music*

"moider" = Curly's (from the 3 stooges) accent for the word "murder", am I right? On the topic of muscular women with veiny arms: Ew!

I didn't really see old fecal stains, but I did like it when she said "most people would give their eyeteeth to look like me", or something like that. Just the arrogance of it. DS'ers are too easy to bait. They swallow it every time.....It's like kicking an anthill....they swarm out all chaotic touting some study that supposedly states how the DS is so superior to every other surgery available. In the end, I'm happy with my band. I'm not going to try and persuade anybody which WLS surgery they should have, that's up to them.

Women of LBT unite!! You can't let this example of sexism go unprotested!! Doff your tops and let the world know that "the man" can't hold you down!! PS- somebody take pictures. Thnx.

Yeah, rub it in his face...Well, metaphorically speaking, of course.

Tapshoes, you rule. Plain and simple. Let's say hypothetically that I work in an allied health profession where one needs to licensed by the state before they can be employed. Hypothetically, I might have been stunned to learn that a new graduate had neglected to get a state license because he "didn't know I needed one". People always / never fail to amaze me.

Wow! I had not heard this!! That's sad. But.......the cynical respiratory therapist in me (not in that way, ya sickos, I'm referring to myself) is muttering that there is probably more to the story than is being released to the public.

Damn! And I would have gotten away with it if it hadn't been for you meddling kids!!

It crackes me up the most when the DS'ers say in one post "I hate it when they [lapbanders] say their surgery is the best, when we're just spreading information".....but then they turn around and compare the lapband with being in a building that's on fire?!? That's too funny. Also, I love the exchange between the 2 DS'ers and the lady that was trying to say "why not live and let live". She'd post a point and be all reasonable, and they would come back with "Damn, I'ma fixing to stuff my face with gravy". That whole exchange made me laugh soooooooooo hard I had tears rolling. But I think that perfectly symbolizes how the DS'ers are (at least on OH). Can you picture it? A roundtable discussion on WLS: Lapbander - Well, there are some rules with the band RnY'er - We've made some dietary changes as well DS'er - Gravy!! Ima eat ice cream with syrup!! Lapbander - Uh......ok, but anyway, about the band DS'er - I eat fried mayonaise and lose weight! Gah! Porkchops!! and so on for the entire length of the debate

I'm fully public!! I have nothing to hide (except for some bodies in the backyard).

That's what I'm talking about!! Me and Gweniper vs. LBT in the event of Olympic-watching......We're gonna get the gold, Gweniper!!

Posting to say: Hatas go home...the Olympics rock!!! *lifts shirts to reveal life-sized mural of American flag painted on prodigious belly* "U-S-A! U-S-A!"

I couldn't see what they were protesting, but I totally support their right to dissent while topless.

Just shows that you can never take genetics completely out of the question. Just like when somebody turns 100 years old. Inevitably, some reporter asks "What's the secret to your longevity".....then the oldster says "blah blah blah", when the more honest answer would be "Look at the average life expectancy graph. Can you read a bell curve? That's the secret to my longevity. By the way, I pooped my pants".

I think I went to school with that guy!!

Wait for it.....wait for it.......Happy Bday Froggi and Mac!!

You mean there's more to the band than what the commercials say? I always assumed it was powered by devil's magic...

Di, living well is the best revenge.

And just so nobody here will be too lonely, I'm appointing "SickNTired" to be my stand in for a couple of weeks. Her official duties will be to be a smartass, be the voice of political reason (that means be a moderate conservative, Sick.....none of this liberal BS), to make unwanted sexual innuendos, and to just be creepy in general..... I shall return! Hopefully when I do it will be more tanned and less fat!

Why thanks RSG.

BJean, I wasn't popping off. You can't possibly know that "McCain's intellect is lacking" or "Obama is brilliant" or "Obama has an awesome value system" unless you personally know them. You might suspect these things, or they might be your opinion, but you cannot factually know these things. I suspect you also "know" that voting for McCain will be like voting for Bush's 3rd term too.......right? Hey I got a new one for ya: "Don't vote for McCain - He's old!!" and the republicans are the ones that won't debate the issues? Sheesh.

Jack, Obama's movement from the left towards the middle was totally expected. On one of these forums, I even asked BJean how she would feel when it inevitably happened. The majority of the American public don't want what the uber-liberals want. Ergo, to be elected, a liberal candidate must move to the middle. This was fated to happen ever since Obama clinched the nomination.

Well I'm glad that's cleared up! I wouldn't want to be a premature birthday wisher!!
