Soxy

I hope the army rejects her plea--she shouldn't get any years taken off for pleading something we all know.....

QUOTE(kapkomet @ May 3, 2005 -> 07:49 AM) Oh, it's an apples and oranges comparison, no doubt about it. But there were a lot of people out there saying that no one recovers from injuries like these. Terri and this guy are completely different. Nonetheless, it's a great story. True, it is a great story. I know people recover, but a coma is waaaaay different than Schiavo's situation, as you mentioned. And I just wanted to point that out before someone goes on about how Terri might have woken up. And warm thoughts to this guy! He's got an uphill battle, but I hope he makes it--I can't even imagine how atrophied his muscles are. I wish him all the luck in the world.

QUOTE(YASNY @ May 3, 2005 -> 07:45 AM) True. You can look at it as double the risk, or as a greater than 90% chance there be no problems of any kind. It's all how you want to spin it. True, it is a better than 90% chance. But if for some reason I wanted to marry my cousin (which, sounds about as appealing as marrying Rush Limbaugh or Micheal Moore) I would still adopt. No point in taking risks with someone else's life and health.

QUOTE(Steff @ May 3, 2005 -> 07:42 AM) I wonder the extent of his damage. Well, I can tell you for one thing, I bet his brain wasn't liquified to the point of having ventricles be the size of at least half the brain.

QUOTE(YASNY @ May 3, 2005 -> 06:04 AM) The statistics showed only a slight increase of that possibility. So that doesn't carry much weight. Double the risk from non-related couples, if the articles cited in this thread are right.

Horrible and mean thought (not wishing injury on Wood), but the inevitable question with all his problems: who wants in on a Tommy John pool for him?

QUOTE(TheDybber @ May 2, 2005 -> 12:56 PM) Now, if we were talking about gay cousins that want to marry...then Jerry Springer will have a show!!!! Actually, I think I've seen that show....

QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ May 2, 2005 -> 11:52 AM) People from Pennsylvania think they're so cosmopolitan, but I like to remind them everytime I hear a Texas joke that the keystone state is the gap-toothed older brother of Texas. (and indiana is our cousin) My friend from West Virginia never tires of saying that there is more incest in PA than in WV. Although, PA has a larger population--but I'm not sure if she's talking proportion or straight up numberwise....

I saw a commercial for the movie--and it sounded to me like she was doing a really bad PeeWee Herman impression.....

Okay, you're an ambulance.... Sorry, couldn't resist.

Happy Easter!

Hey! That phone number doesn't work!

Whew, that's good news. I was expecting to read about some poor oil covered animal somewhere....

QUOTE(Calderon's Crew @ Apr 29, 2005 -> 11:50 AM) Chisoxygirl... How many years has the PA been around? They dropped the ball. I wonder if Jessie Jackson is on his way to Minny When the PA first came out Nadine Strossen (then in charge of the ACLU) came to my college to denounce it and talk about the way they were going about challenging it. Just because there hasn't been a change doesn't mean they aren't trying...

QUOTE(Calderon's Crew @ Apr 29, 2005 -> 11:17 AM) The ALCU is a joke. They spend more time on b.s. like this and nothing about real issues, Patriot Act etc. Nope, nothing about the PA....

QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ Apr 29, 2005 -> 07:49 AM) I'm sure the school would love t-shirts like "I love my ball sack" "I love my anal sphincter" "I love my asshole" If they were in correct anatomical terminology why not?

It's not graphic, no pictures, it's a simple statement, with body part on it. I really don't see the problem.

QUOTE(sec159row2 @ Apr 28, 2005 -> 11:08 AM) I probably shouldn't go out of the house either No, I mean, why read a forum that is devoted to other teams, when you said you only care about the White Sox?

QUOTE(sec159row2 @ Apr 28, 2005 -> 07:45 AM) I don't know who they are... if they're not white sox who gives a crap... I could listen to gammons if I want updates on these chumps.... why waste time throwing dirt on zambrano... why waste time watching mags go down the drain... why stand in line to blow arod... ????? Then why even read this forum?

Ewwwww. What is she thinking?
