We were told by our pilot in Las Vegas that "rain in the desert messes everything up", but no one could tell us why. I am curious now if it has to do with thermals, or what the exact problems caused are. I want to understand what rain does that can cause huge delays even when it's been stopped raining for 4 hours? Was it just a fluke, or does rain cause changes in the air which aren't conducive for flight (remember the rain was stopped for hours before actual takeoff time). Was the amount of rain on Saturday the deciding factor? I can't find any science to answer my questions. Thanks!

a lot of times (lately) I find myself daydreaming about the kind of appartment I'd like to have; something simple but stylish along with my fave pet - an American fuzzy lop bunny, :))

the problem, as always, is financial, :)) i know i may never have what I desire but I just can't stop thinking about it.

how do I deal with this little escapist fantasy

(in order to make this happen I'd have to write a bestseller or something, :))

thanks

I do use the creams and whatnot my doctor (dermatologist) prescribes me, she will not send me in for phototherapy even though thats what helps the most. It covers a good percentage of my body. The creams only work for so long and then they stop working. Am looking for people that suffer from it and have suggestions of things that have helped them. It gets so bad that it looks like I have been burned sometimes and gets really sore.

My newly adopted greyhound is wonderful with people, but if he sees another dog or cat he wants to chase it. Has anyone tried a quick spray with water, or will it cause additional anxiety?
