Whenever you choose to do a quote, such as I have just done, you will find a bunch of these little creatures at the foot of the page. If you do not see them then just move the scroll bar down. Then move your cursor down to the appropriate smiley, hit enter once, and this will appear wherever you had last left off while working on your message.

When you are writing a new message, one without a quote, you will not have access to the smileys until you hit the preview post button. Once you do that you will be able to not only proof read and edit your message before posting it, you will also be able to load it up with the appropriate smiley guys. :) You can get rid of them in the usual fashion; you simply centre your cursor on top of the item and then hit delete.

I hope my explanation makes sense to you. I do come from analog land, which is the land before all things digital. :phanvan Everything is complicated for me. :rolleyes:

I'm trying this again....just testing...sorry to bug you...:omg::P:cry:whoo:

I'll see if it worked now...

What one finds humorous, another may find offensive. Such is the upredictable nature of humor. Fat jokes come to mind about now for some unknown reason...:doh:

Whether Derick's added comment is deemed funny or not, I have to say I got to chuckling when the point was made that Catholics aren't persecuted like Muslims. Are you sure that we're all living on the same planet or have some folks ventured off into a parallel universe? Check out these links if you need a brief history lesson on the persecution of Catholics and other Christians around the globe:

Catholic Culture : Library : A Roman Holiday: Global Persecution of the Catholic Church

America: Christians in the Middle East face persecution, pushed to the periphery - Catholic Online

Persecution of Christians - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Anti-Catholicism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Catholic Educator's Resource: Current Issues/Persecution of Christians

Persecution of the Catholic Church

Bolshevik Persecution of the Catholic Church

Persecution of people of all religions occurs throughout the world--it's not a practice specially reserved for those of the Muslim faith unfortunately. Everyone in the world needs to learn to be tolerant of the religious beliefs of others. On the other hand, no one should be running around persecuting (or murdering) others just because they think their religion is "better" than another or that it is the only "right" belief system to have. That type of behavior is rather psychotic--you'd think studying religion would make someone act better, not worse! :faint:

Doesn't anyone learn how to get along in kindergarten any more? :)

Derrick, You forgot to mention automatic pilot for driving around town in your burqa. That would be a very nice safety feature since it scares the crap out of me when I have to share the road. Of course I guess that would be a none issue in some countries since women probably are not allowed to drive.

You know. If this was RL and someone said something to someone which may not have been intended for you and you overheard it. I bet there are some of you who would say your piece about being offended even though you were not being spoke to. Same applies here. If you didn't like the joke, ignore it and go on. Why add to your anxiety? I thought it was funny. But I am not easily offended.:faint:

My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
