Queen Prawn

Where's my little violin when I need one.

Take it easy Jugg. No need to start stuff like that regardless of whether she isn't or is.

QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Mar 22, 2005 -> 11:30 AM) Do you know how they met? Was it on-line or by regular mail? Did he travel to the Ukraine to meet her in person or did she travel to meet him? Are they living in America or the Ukraine? From what I understand, I think it was a online (but I am not 100% sure). She traveled to meet him. They live here.

QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Mar 22, 2005 -> 11:20 AM) Wow! You have to explain to us all the details. You hear about these things but never from any one you know or in your circle of life. This is definitely rare. I've met her a few times and she seems really nice. She is from the Ukraine and is going to school (for English as well as a few other classes I believe). Don't really know too many other details other than that.

QUOTE(Steff @ Mar 22, 2005 -> 09:10 AM) I completely agree with you Soxy. Makes three of us.

QUOTE(silver and black @ Mar 21, 2005 -> 11:14 PM) im a loser...thats why Don't say that. You remind me of my baby brother. He is convinced he is the worst looking thing under the sun and he isn't. He recently lost a bunch of weight and he looks good for himself and better than that he is a great guy. I am not saying that just cuz he is my brother, but because I know he treats people right. As for mail order brides, one of Brian's buddies did that about 2 years ago and they are still happily married. (My only point to this is that people do actually do this and every now in then it actually works out.)

I understand that as guardian he has the right to decide (I already told Brian that if he doesn't carry out my wishes when I pass, I will make sure to haunt his ass 'til he does). I just can't believe that whatever this lady said she wanted isn't being carried out. I am prepared to carry out my parents' wishes even if I don't agree/like them. Why take that away from someone?

Happy Bday!

What was her request? My parents want cremation, but my mom's family isn't happy about it. People keep talking about what he wants and what her mom and dad wants. What did she say she wanted? Brian and I have already talked about this and know what the other wants (he wants a funeral and I want my body donated to science and then have a memorial with lots of Queen music and laughter). To be honest, my parents knew this as well going back some time. Someone has to know what she wanted.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Mar 21, 2005 -> 04:17 PM) After reading this thread, I have come to the conclusion that I am so uncool.........why does that not bother me? I, too, am uncool and I am cool with that lol.

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Mar 21, 2005 -> 04:37 PM) My 5-year old boy has simultaneously entered his superhero phase and his penis phase, and it's made for some fine entertainment. He and his older sister were playing superheroes the other day and he just out of the blue blurts out "The power of the universe is in my penis!" Needless to say, my wife assumes this is all my fault somehow... LMAO!

I get the dry heaves when I take vitamins with out food.

QUOTE(SAVVY18 @ Mar 21, 2005 -> 11:59 AM) I'm glad I'm not the only one who doesn't understand that. I don't get it either.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Mar 20, 2005 -> 08:18 PM) This is a great time to clarify what life support means. Some consider a ventilator "life support" this is a feeding tube. I would not disagree with anyone who calls this "life support" but I could see some people not necessarily meaning a feeding tube as life support. This came up 2 years ago with my gramma. My parents consider both if they are what is primarily sustaining life for them.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Mar 21, 2005 -> 10:31 AM) f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** What he said... :banghead

Paul Konerko

My parents have made each other and the three of us promise to not leave them on life supports if there is no chance for any improvement. To be honest, they don't want it at all for any reason. For my mom, it had to do with what happened with her parents.

QUOTE(Jabroni @ Mar 18, 2005 -> 04:08 PM) Garland gives up a deep double to CF to Henry Blanco. Brian Anderson play the ball horribly. 2 runs score. Garland sucks. 8-7 Sox. Then Garland gives up a deep double to the wall in LF. 8-8, Tie game. Once again, Garland sucks. I guess Garland wants to get his big inning out of the way. Nomar grounds out. Inning over. 8-8 Tie game. Some things never change I guess.

Honestly, for me it would be Brian. Nothing against my family, but that's what I feel.

QUOTE(KevHead0881 @ Mar 18, 2005 -> 02:22 PM) Iguchi singles. Double for Everett...Sox up 1-0. Anybody want updates? Otherwise I won't bother. I do. Puleeze?!

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Mar 18, 2005 -> 01:16 PM) I'm no expert, but I see the kind of workout the trainers at my gym make women do. It's mostly weights, with enough resistance to able to do 4 sets of like 12-15 reps. Supposedly, this makes you more cut and defined and doesn't add muscle bulk. I'm sure they do cardio too. I do more cardio than weights, but I work on arms one visit and then legs the next on the weights. I am pleased with my progress on my legs, but my arms and middle need a little more work (mid section is coming along nicely, but I am having a really tough time on the arms though).

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Mar 18, 2005 -> 01:05 PM) Like you said, don't worry so much about the weight. Are you getting toned? My legs are much better than they were. Not much looseness anywhere on 'em. Now if I can get my arms to comply, I'd be happy. My midsection is slowly coming along, but I have to do the pilates a little more regularly.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Mar 18, 2005 -> 12:32 PM) I'm not bragging here, cuz I'm just plain lucky genetically. I'm the guy everyone hates. Eat whatever I want, thin as a rail. 6'1", 180 lbs, 32 inch waist. Brian - is that you?! lol Brian is just like that. Drives me up a damned wall. I started working out about 4 months ago and watch what I eat. It wasn't that I was getting fat, I just wanted to tone up. It is driving me nuts that I work out 4 days a week (at 1 - 1.25 hrs a time) and while I have toned up, I'v only lost about 6 lbs.

Could this be an April Fools joke? In any sense, that episode was hysterical!

QUOTE(CrimsonWeltall @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 11:03 PM) For those that watch Mythbusters... LMAO!!!!
