You know Sands, and welcome back by the way, you survived, if we let those yuppies and Q-Tips loose on snow, and tell them it is really PC Alien Life forms, they will speed up. They will believe each white life form they run over is bringing the world to the ultimate and-um. You see, if it was snow, like you and I know, they would slow down and drive with some sanity. They believe, with their short hair, PC Ashley Bancroft true bohemian glasses, and other things, we owe them the right of way. We should encourage their activity and watch the alien life forms throw poles, trees, bridges at them while they freeze at the wheel, foot flat to the floor, running down working stiffs like you and the rest of us, getting ready to sue another auto manufacturer for allowing their auto to skid when they were driving irresponsibly. We just had an 88yr old Q-Tip back her Lincoln over two foreign tourists last week, run over one of them, and drag the other 1 mile before she was stopped. She is sueing the state as they yelled at her to stop her and she is offended. I love people, rocks though do not lie. Oh yeah, she broadsided two other vehicles before she hit the pedestrians who were on the sidewalk.

Yeah, you know the ones. Tuft of whit hair above the headrest, car drives itself, bounces off things, runs people over in their power chair yelling Out of My Way! Cannot You See I am Handicapped! Backing up without looking, changing lanes without indication, cutting across four lanes of traffic waving their Key West Salute. Those are the ones.

Hey Sandsman, SO glad you got back home safely in the snow with all the bad drivers on the road! But, what's up with this severe nerve damage in both legs? Is this a new diagnosis, or something that existed before? What's the doc gonna do about it? Are you doing OK?

I used to hold white hairs in high reverence. I have had such an instrumental effect laid upon me in a way I could understand that changed my life. These are not those people. There are a few white hairs here. They stand out like a beacon in the dark. There is a glimmer in their eyes. They come over to me and tell me what they have learned, and take time to help me if I want to try it. There is this one retired jeweler who is 84. He looks 68, stands tall, moves aside for others, asks Me for ideas. He makes me feel like an equal and he can do things I cannot. I actually saw a pair of Q-Tips try to get a waitress fired because she brought them extra coffee without them asking for it! I do not blame you for sending them down here, but did you have to send so many?

hi BE this has been there for three years and the insurance co still says im not hurt there taking me to court on 2/7 to try and take my disabilty from me ,, they dont care they got a doc to say that he thinks its an old injury but i have never had a back prob in my life ---the doc who did the test told me what he seen and he said its what happens when you have disc's out of place and they touch the nerves in your spine it can give you back and leg pain---i was supossed to get that test done 2 years ago and they refused to pay for it --i guess they didnt want to prove i was hurt with there money -- the doc i seen today said i need to see a Nora surgeon but he said theres never a guarantee that an operation will help it could be the same or worse after,, so i dont think im gonna let them experiment on me hahaha,, i can get up and go to the bathroom myself right now and i wanna keep it that way

Sands, I know the insurance deal. I used to be a tree climber back when. I pruned residential trees. All day in the rope and saddle. We had a new climber and he cut my climbing rope. I fell 45ft., hit the ground, broke my back, and my leg. The final court ruling was I went to work with a bone sticking out of my leg, and my fractured spine was a prior injury. I fell out of the tree at 3:00 pm after working for six hours in heavy labour. With a bone sticking out of my leg, and hemorraging. They appealed untill I ran out of attorneys. They won. I am a cripple and they drive SUV's.

John, I don't know what to say. I'm so sorry that you're having to live with these physical problems and also having to go throught these stupid insurance problems. I hope you won't mind if I include you in my prayers.

How sickening is it that a stupid woman can put a styrofoam cup of hot coffee between her legs, get burned, then get a million +++ dollar settlement/reward for her stupidity. And people that are REALLY hurt get nothing but trouble and crap from the insurance companies.
I'm just gonna leave it at that because I could get on a real rant on the subject of stupidity and jury rewards!
BTW, Doc, when BE and I went to the rock show Saturday, the first thing in the door was a fella doing some faceting. He ask me if I wanted to try and I was so there! It was really neat!

Kewl beans. I am glad you got the chance to see what the noise is about. I posted plans for a faceter that is as good as the Ultratec I am getting. Might want to give it a try. Insurance is social control. Makes Sands and I and others like us what we are today. Hurts a little but all and all, not too bad. Look what we make. If I hadn't gone through what I did, I might have grown up and become a Q-Tip.

Oh, it's way more than social control! I bet if you and Sands were minorities, you'd get taken care of in a NY minute, no or few questions asked. It's a combination of social control and redistribution of wealth. You get a have not with a sleazy socialistic laywer and a stupid jury vs. a multimillion dollar company and you can bet that jury is gonna see that that wealth is moved from the have to the have not. The socialists are bound and determined to make this a third world country and we are well on our way. You should read some of the speeches and remarks made by these criminal politians in the Congressional Reports! If just a small percentage of folks really knew what the politicians were attempting to do, there would be a revolution. But, the public fool system had done it's job well by their brainwashing and dumbing down of people, few even question what the nanny state says to do. I am so glad I don't have children because in another 20-25 years, this country will be a third world country - if it takes that long! Thank goodness I will be dead and gone by then.

Llana, I have a thirty year old son. He cannot speak to me as get this one, he left his wife and newborn son as it infringes on his freedom. The state automatically makes him go to state counseling. Every divorce in the state he did this in has to take voluntary counseling or forfeit parental "rights". It has been three years now, and he is convinced I am not the right parent, nor will I be the right grandparent. We haven't spoken in a long time. Aldux Huxley was correct. It is a brave new world. Few see it, or are willing to give up their chains for living. We own our house, we have no bills, and that makes people uncomfortable. We live humbly. We like that. Our Bengals, our jewelery tools, or shop. We get by. The borrower is the slave to the lender. That is how we are enslaved, even if we have no outstand loans. We are dragged in by the rest of them.
