I once took my daughter's friends bowling for her birthday and one of the girl was going really good for a first time bowler . I found she was counting the pins still standing and not the one she knocked down . She was only knocking down about 3 pins at a time. :roll:

Hi Reba, regarding the prosthetics topic...
so what will he do with the other devices<not the blade, the others>
will he keep them for spares?

I'm glad things are working out well with him:)

is she still reacting to the new leg?

He's going to keep all the legs for spares, and for special purposes.

Didn't get a new report on the doggy today. :)

Too much anger and investment into one mentally ill member.

The term "whipping boy" comes to mind. I did not like first seeing it as a small child and have seen no redeeming qualities for this activity in all the years since.

Mean streaks have all kinds of different ways of manifesting themselves.
 
whipping boys, doggies with false legs, cinnimum rolls and mental problems got lost...I think it time for bed:)

I learned that sinkholes can happen here in Maryland.

I don't think it's a sinkhole. It's more like a mudslide because this occurred next to railroad track. there's nothing to hold the hill back.

Maybe, or it might be the whirring noise that the robot leg makes when it moves. She's a young playful dog, so she might think it's a squeaky toy. :giggle:

That's what I was thinking.

I think I read there was a 100+ year old retaining wall, but, yeah, mud slide, not sink hole.

Who knows what the heck that was...it was very unusual for Maryland or in the city of Baltimore. Crazy!!!!

I've been feeling really exhausted and sick at times the last few weeks. I thought it was stress. I went to the doctor this morning and found out I'm five weeks pregnant. :shocked: I was on birth control and never really thought about that possibility. I know it's possible to get pregnant but the doctor was saying sometimes women don't know they're pregnant until around eight weeks!

My mom was there with me when I found out and she is super excited. :D She started to name names in Japanese and English. :giggle: On other hand, I'm really nervous and scared haha. I also excited but I was not prepared for this kind of news. I don't even know where to begin.

My mom has told me they're going to help support me but we're both afraid of how my father will react. He's very immersed in holding up Japanese traditions and that includes me being married and so forth...so let's hope when we break the news he gets excited. I also will have to tell my boyfriend and see his reaction...

However, despite all the nervousness I'm feeling without my mom's support I don't know what I'd do. :D

I would love to have another baby in my family but it do not look it will happen for a long time. That is very exciting news and it's great your mom is so happy too.
 
I learned that there will be a Breaking Bad spin off TV show this fall. The name of show is "Better Call Saul!".
 
I also just learned that Bob Hoskins who is well known for the movie "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?" died on April 29th. :(

Once in a while is fine, but post after post in one night is excessive.

It would be different if he didn't come in here posting incorrect information night after night. I started out when he first joined being nice to him. Then, kindly correcting him once and a while. Then I moved to being firm every now and again... Then he started going on and on spewing incorrect information constantly and lying. ( saying he once saved a woman's life and when called out on it by Scott and I saying he did it incorrectly, all of the sudden it wasn't him it was a licensed medical professional ) and various other astronomical lies like that. Not little ones, but WHOPPERS... Yes, I get angry when people lie a lot... and I get angry when people have to one up members that come in here to say something about their day innocently like Reba or Angel and then he has to burst in and one up them and take away from something they may have really needed to vent about or just get out there by one upping it like he has to everything else. So yes, I call him out... if he would practice being truthful and not being an attention grabber I would practice being nicer to him. Anyone else notice I am typically rather supportive and encouraging to others? I don't enjoy being lied to or others being lied to... Too many times I've seen crap happen and people taken advantage of by people like this... I refuse to sit by and let him fill peoples heads with crap.. So yes, I will call him out. If he'd just be honest, admit when he doesn't know something about something and practice being a real person who doesn't have to one up everyone and be HIMSELF, I would more than gladly support that and be kind. Until then, he can deal with the repercussions of his actions. Any member who has PM'd me or spoken with me one on one knows I am incredibly kind. You're seeing me lashing into someone who is putting all this junk out here, and that is all. He's the one doing it to himself, he can make the steps to improve. I'm a very direct person, if someone does something to make me angry ( lying, over-exaggerating, creating drama constantly, one upping everyone in existence, having a story for EVERYTHING and giving minute to minute updates on every tiny thing they do ) I'm going to say something... He posts SO much of course there is going to be a lot of replies...

I need a hobby? I don't have 8k posts since late November....
 
I learned a good lesson today-- don't ever rely on the desktop version of Chase Banking. My mobile app and the Desktop version are showing a nearly $111 difference in my account.
