  1. What a good wife! I did not vote for Obama. However, even though I might have some policy disagreements, I will support our leader. To do anything else would be, IMO, un-patriotic. Kicking ass! Hello! That's no small victory!!
  2. Well at least you're not bitter, or anything.
  3. Why yes. Yes it does. Do I need to call your boss for you, Slim?
  4. What's the metric conversion to a "fiddler's damn"?
  5. *hangs head in silent shame*
  6. Call your doc if you can't keep anything down.
  7. Wow.......Ok, I know I'm small-minded, but who whips out the camera and photographs their poop? Besides Susan, I mean:biggrin:
  8. Do NOT click on the above link!!! I cannot stress that enough.
  9. Hahahaha.......Were you giving him the "evil eye" again? What a chickensh!t....You'll SOON be meeting a better class of dudes.
  10. Sorry to interrupt this thread with the following message: Best. Thread. Ever. That is all.
  11. I think maybe something was lost in the translation?
  12. Ciao_Bella, sounds like you are doing great! Welcome to the boards. RE: your UCSD question, you might get more answers if you post the question in the geographical forums.
  13. Hi mamame. How exciting that you'll soon be banded! The pre-op diet is pretty important.....it helped me to know that the whole reason they put us on the pre-op diet is to shrink our livers, ultimately making it a safer surgery for us. It is a pain to get through, but you can do it! How do I know? Because I did it......and if I did it, anybody can.
  14. Hi there benajchase. There is a section here that is divided into geographical areas. You might get more answers if you post your question there. Welcome aboard!
  15. Her's the backstory: http://www.lapbandtalk.com/f80/lapband-deceit-bullsh-t-74824/index4.html You might have to read a couple of pages to get to where Dr.Stan calls me........Fluoride Dope. Maybe I'm a little cynical, but even if there were a global religion, I think there would still be wars. Human nature, and all that. Also, as a Christian, I understand what Patty was trying to say at the start of the thread. I don't agree with her presentation....I think Steve Goad's insights there were particularly astute.....but I see her point (debateable as it may be).
  16. Dammit!! I think I's been insulted!!
  17. Quit being so mean!!
  18. Beth, I think we both know you liked it. I think most cheat some, but that double-double thread appalled me. Really, I wonder if different MRI's hold different capacities? Ours will go to 325. I wonder if they'll take my personal check? Wow....Leslie is a vagina nazi. A world where ladies don't feel free to show off their vaginas, well, that's a cruel world indeed. Perhaps she just had her pubic hair professionally coiffed and wanted some compliments? Although you'd think the high humidity of a sauna would not be kind.....unless she used an extremely competant hair spray. Ooops, and here I was talking about pubic hairspray. Sorry Granny. I think she'll be the life of the party. They're businesslike, tolerable people over there. Not like the hooligans we have. Several posts have explained this, but "Bless your heart" can be heartfelt. More often, the theory is that you can say anything if "bless your heart" is included in the phrase, and the person can't get angry. Example: "Now that is the ugliest baby I have ever seen, bless his heart" It's the same thing by inserting LOL in an online conversation. "Man, you are an idiot and your breath smells like my septic tank. LOL" I don't see it. Texas is so big that the culture varies by region. From central to northeast Texas, the culture (and the speech patterns) is very "deep south" Georgia. Central Texas is very unique in that it is german and mexican cultures, all blended together. West Texas is waaaaaay more "western" like New Mexico, Arizona, etc. From central to South Texas, Mexican culture dominates. Just my experiences from travels over the state, so take it w/ a grain o' salt.
  19. Fanny, I've decided that I'm going to take my "mo skin" photos at my one year bandiversary. That's Feb. 22nd.....so give me until then. I'm thinking that I might PM or Email whoever wants to see. That way, I'm hitting a happy medium between full disclosure and foisting unwanted pics on innocent bystanders, LOL.....I don't expect them to be pretty. I'm still unsure about posting anything "in public" on here.
  20. Ok, I've said it before, but I'll say it again: God Bless all you wonderful ladies, LOL.
  21. I can only dream of being Obi Wan......or his master Qui-Gon Jinn. Yep, I'm a Star Wars geek.
  22. Your IP Address is: 24.119.244.85 Our database shows the following information for this IP: Country: US State: TX City: TEXARKANA Zip: 75501 Although not where I actually live, this info is correct for my work, where I post 95% of the time.
  23. Basically, I'm kind of an idiot. And my brethren and I have lots of time on our collective hands to come up with stuff like this.* *Ok, so my wife is actually a pretty good photographer, and she took a series of pics kinda like this around a campfire, playing around with different parts of my face shadowed by my hoodie and the fire. Artsy stuff. I liked some of the poses, so I just snapped a replication on my cheapy-o webcam, because she hadn't uploaded her pics from her camera.
  24. Agreed. Let's find the OP and stone her. And by that, I mean I'll invite her to my parents' basement, put on some Portishead, and let the magic begin.
  25. It comes and goes for me. Man, do I feel your pain there! Allright! Broadcasting from the L&D! *Fingers crossed* Hello. My name is Trey and I'm a meat eater. Assuming you are 1) Not eating too fast 2) chewing very thoroughly 3) not eating too much, then yes, sounds like maybe you need a bit of an unfill. Heehee....Slim said "petulant". I love that word. LOL........What's a "Nazi" face? This is blasphemy! BLASPHEMY, I say! I'm afraid I'd have an unknown birthmark in an awkward shape.....that'd be my luck Sorry. I just got carried away.
