If it is too political, you can pass this question by. I checked yesterday in the News/media section but didn't see any topics on it. What do you think about privitizing health insurance? I hear people are having problems with their long-term insurance claims.

If I am reincarnated, I want to live my next life backwards!

You start out dead and get that out of the way right off the bat.

Then, you wake up in a nursing home feeling better every day.

When you are kicked out of the home for being too healthy, you spend several years enjoying your retirement and collecting benefit checks.

When you start work, you get a gold watch on your first day.

You work 40 years or so, getting younger every day until pretty soon you're too young to work.

So then, you go to high school: play sports, date, drink, and party.

As you get even younger, you become a kid again.

You go to elementary school, play, and have no responsibilities.

In a few years, you become a baby and everyone runs themselves ragged keeping you happy.

You spend your last 9 months floating peacefully in luxury, spa-like conditions: central heating, room service on tap.

Until finally...You finish off as an orgasm.

I rest my case

I'm still surprised that I have to pay $1.00 to buy a bottle of water. Who'd have ever thought that bottling drinking water would have been profitable?

And cell phones! They are a pain in the rear but we have to have them now or our relatives fuss and fume because they can't get in touch with us instantly.

I'm not talking about world politics or anything heavy-duty here. Just the everyday life changes.

A man, realising that his life was missing something, decided to buy a parrot.
He took it home, and as he took the cover off of the cage, the parrot began to insult him, "you have brought me to a dump here, I bet you have never had a girlfriend, do you even know how to use a duster?" The man was shocked and put the cover back on the cage, this did not stop the continual abuse however, and after 20 minutes the man grabbed the parrot and said " I'll teach you some respect".He opened the freezer door and threw the parrot in. The parrot continued swearing and cursing inside the freezer for 15 minutes, then went quiet. The man, feeling guilty that he had killed the parrot, rushed to the freezer and opened the door, "I do apologise for my behaviour sir," the parrot said, "I trust that I did not offend you in any way?" The man rather confused, said "That's OK, would you like to go back in your cage now?" The parrot replied "That's up to you sir, but may I enquire; what did the chicken do?"

I got to see him live, when he was young. What was your favorite song?
Mine was "Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom, going shoot ya right down, take you in my arms, I am in love with you, love that is true, boom boom boom boom." I actually liked them all except San Francisco Nights.

When I returned from my recent break I found Mr. Eyes had turned the old stately pile into an hotel! What a shock.
Gone the hen hoose - that is now a gym for the guests.


There are a couple of chaps (American) in room 4. They are partners in something. And I think very religious. For the best part of last night I heard the young fair haired one shouting out the name of the Lord in quite a fervant manner.

Knowing the couple of retirees arriving in the morning are from what they told me was the bible belt of the states - I thought it might be a good idea to put them in room 5 next door to the young fellers.

They should have a lot in common I feel.

Do you think that would be a good plan?

There are no eggs on the menu for the morning and I see no sign of any of the girls as yet - I'll have to ensure they are not in the gym using the sauna. There is the aroma of chicken chasseur although not coming from the kitchen!

I liked his song "I want to walk you home." And also the song with the words "Whatcha going to do when the well runs dry, whatcha going do just sit and cry, I am walking, yes indeed, I am ? ugh!

I think in New Jersey. Freddie "Boom Boom" Cannon had a hit record out with the same name. "We ate and ate at the hotdog stand, we danced around to a rocking band, and when ______, I gave that girl a hug, in the tunnel of love...."

Would you ever shave your head to be a good buddy to a friend who has cancer and lost all her hair? I did and it feels soooooooo good! I don't have to primp in the morning and there's a feeling of freedom and confidence that I never had before. Not to mention all the laughs and hugs from my friend who's mighty sick. But what about you? Could you do it?

If you registered to keep telemarketers from calling, you'll need to re-register. Despite what a lot of people said before, I personally saw a difference in the number of telemarketing calls.

I've heard before that people who are married a long time end up looking somewhat alike. The link to an interesting article follows. So, to those of you who were/are married a really long time, do you think you've begun to look alike?

I have been called Makeitright for well over three to four months. I changed because there was so much confusion over daisyduker. It is no longer on my profile or in my avatar at all. Yet, I noted this morning, they have listed me as daisyduker instead of my makeitright name.
Any suggestions? What is going on?

I also posted this on Yahoo for help as well, but I trust this site more.

I am on the elderly person's side. I want them to be well. Most of you are going way out of your way to convince them they are sick. If you are doing that here you are doing it there. The elderly person is smarter than you think. Of course you can see old age on an xray. But you can't bill Medicare for it.
