  1. They are only here around May (and now sometimes in Sept). They are the genetic fabrication of USF, made originally to get rid of mosquitos (they didn't). An experiment gone bad. Would make a good movie for Sci-fi channel... The Attack of the Love Bug

  2. Shellon-

    You dont want your fish to taste like fish? should fish taste like something else?

    Shouldn't it taste like chicken? Everything else does! :)

  3. I wish that I could have known my mother-in-law better than I did. Last night, Emma Legg, Ted's mother died at 5:30. We had admitted her to hospice care on Thursday morning, and after a couple of weeks in a nursing home for rehab, we were planning to bring her home this week. Hospice was going to continue to help us with her care. We visited her yesterday afternoon around 1:00. Ted and I had gone to church and went out for lunch before going to see her. She was conscious and able to talk. She told Ted that she was tired. Ted told her that we would be taking her home with us this week and she told him that she wasn't going to leave. She then held out her hand to me. After I covered her up, she told us that she wanted to go. She wanted to sleep. She died peacefully in her sleep. Emma died on her own terms. She didn't suffer or show any signs (that I've been so familiar with since working in the hospice house) that she was going to pass that quick.

    My husband is doing well, considering everything we've been through lately. He had been his mother's primary caregiver for the last six years.

  4. Thank you everybody for their blessings and congrats on our marriage. (Sorry we haven't come on sooner, but we have been kind of occupied :knuddel: ). Thank you John for posting your website for us. Last of all, thank you Paw for GreaseSpot, without which, we might never had met.

    For those of you that haven't seen our wedding pics, here they are: Our Wedding

    I guess now we can reveal where we spent our wedding night, since none of you would be able to "interupt" us. :nono5:

  5. As many of you know, I've worked worked for hospice for several years. I've found that it is so much more rewarding than working in a regular hospital (or corporate) setting. I wouldn't trade being involved with hospice care for anything. Unlike some settings, that puts the emphasis on agressive cure, hospice says there has to be as much quality of life as possible for both the patient and family. I would recommend hopsice to anybody that is looking for a career with meaning.

    Last year, I had the wonderful experience of hearing Ira Byock speak when he was invited to hold a seminar at our facility. I'm sure that you will enjoy him too.

  6. "Apparently the new family class the Coulters are teaching spends some time explaining that bestiality is wrong."

    Geeze, does this mean that all the single folks who are still PFAL fans will be taking a vow of celibacy?

    This IS really groundbreaking stuff, huh?

    Why do you think I got married! :dance:

  7. Actually, it is a real person that is typing the responses and not a computer generated program. I happen to know this because one of my daughters works in customer service for Overstock.com. She started out with the live on-line service chat and was promoted to the phone lines.
