I espouse to the modern incarnation of the Flat Earth Society ... We maintain that what is called 'Science' today and 'scientists' consist of the same old gang of witch doctors, sorcerers, tellers of tales, the 'Priest-Entertainers' for the common people. 'Science' consists of a weird, way-out occult concoction of gibberish theory-theology...unrelated to the real world of facts, technology and inventions, tall buildings and fast cars, airplanes and other Real and Good things in life; technology is not in any way related to the web of idiotic scientific theory. ALL inventors have been anti-science. The Wright brothers said: "Science theory held us up for years. When we threw out all science, started from experiment and experience, then we invented the airplane." By the way, airplanes all fly level on this Plane earth.

Was looking at pics of terra this am - soooooo cute. I didn't know you'd posted babblets in your profile, so I went searching!
4:38 am
sprite
ah nice :)
4:38 am
puglet
at least you are making some head way through all thats been going on
4:38 am
o-o
Do each of you have treatment plans? If so, did each of you participate in the formulation of the plan?
4:39 am
sprite
hi o-o, good to see you. Yes, and yes.
4:39 am
Lizlin
Ok time for dinner. Just popped in quickly to say hi. Hugs to all.
4:40 am
puglet
hugs Liz and enjoy
4:40 am
sprite
it was nice to see you, however shortly, Liz :) Enjoy your dinner.
4:41 am
puglet
we turn our time back tomorrow :(
4:42 am
sprite
I never mind turning time back. The other way around, in Spring, is what drives me nuts.
4:42 am
o-o
yes, fall back ... and hope someone is there to catch you.
4:42 am
sprite
*holds out arms wide and braces herself*
4:43 am
puglet
thats how I always remember it OO--fall back and spring up
4:44 am
sprite
we have a similar remembrance thing in dutch, but the english one is better
4:44 am
puglet
so I take it you guys turn your time too then
4:44 am
sprite
we did it last weekend, pug
4:45 am
o-o
In my time zone, the time between sunup and sundown is about an hour and twenty-five minutes at its maximum.
4:45 am
puglet
OO are you in the state, if you dont mind me asking
4:46 am
sprite
arrgh, that makes for severe winter depressions. Do you have a daylight lamp?
4:46 am
o-o
I am in North Dakota ... but my mind often is in other places.
4:47 am
puglet
yeah Sprite, how is your lamp doing for you
4:47 am
o-o
the lamp did not help me.
4:47 am
sprite
am sorry to hear that, o-o
4:48 am
puglet
Iam sorry too OO. Depression is not a nice friend to have
4:48 am
sprite
pug, it works good so far. I have programmed it to wake me up every morning, and I give it the full hour and up to full strength. I use it every day, even when I don't have to be up early. But it is early days, will have to wait for a month or more to know if it really helps against the extra depression.
4:49 am
o-o
sort of a juxtapose ... the darkness inside is coincidental to the darkness outside ..
4:49 am
sprite
I wish I knew of a way to bring some light in your darkness, o-o. It is a tough battle for you all the way.
4:51 am
puglet
and you as well Sprite
4:52 am
sprite
yes, but for me, my medication and now the lamp work. Makes a lot of difference.
4:52 am
o-o
Oh, I often get told I have to accept I may never get better. I tell the purveyor of the news to pass me on if you do not thing you may help me .... I have seen many ...
4:53 am
puglet
I will have to look up juxtapose cause I dont know what that means but it dont sound pleasent
4:53 am
sprite
am glad you don't give up, o-o. Indeed, if they feel they can't help you, they should say that and not lay the blame on you.
4:54 am
puglet
How long have you suffered with this OO
4:54 am
o-o
One told me I was too stupid to change and too stubborn to die.
4:54 am
sprite
*grin* I looked it up too, pug. Juxtapose is the placement of two objects close together or side by side for comparison or contrast.
4:55 am
puglet
thanks sprite--lol
4:55 am
sprite
what? omg o-o. What an ass.
4:55 am
puglet
how awful OO
4:56 am
puglet
you seem far far far stupid to me!
4:56 am
o-o
I laugh ... they are the experts ... where is the expertise?
4:56 am
sprite
that is bad enough to warrant lodging a complaint. You are so obviously not stupid, but highly intelligent. And stubborn, well maybe, but that is a good thing. For one, it makes you keep on trying.
4:56 am
puglet
that didnt come out right--I meant far far far from stupid to me--so sorry OO
4:57 am
sprite
yeah. Exactly. They think they know all about it and haven't suffered from it every.
4:58 am
o-o
the context of being too stubborn to die suggests taking my life ... oh, I had some words with the purvayor
4:58 am
puglet
I cant beleive that a doctor would even think on saying something like that in the first place
4:59 am
sprite
very good. It is a criminal thing to say. And not at all helpful.
4:59 am
sprite
probably frustration... at not being able to help, and the feeling they don't get through to you and blaming that on you. In stead of admitting they are in way over their heads.
5:03 am
o-o
Ultimately, I am responsible for my own well-being ...
5:04 am
puglet
as we all are to a certain point, I think
5:04 am
o-o
The level that I function at is my choice
5:04 am
sprite
yes, and you accept that responsibility and use it to try and find adequate help. And when they accept you as a patient, they also accept a part of the responsibility for the treatment.
5:04 am
o-o
I am not someone who is easy to work with.
5:05 am
puglet
I know Ive been to the point of doing myself in and it was myself that stopped me
5:05 am
sprite
and no, I don't think living with severe depression is a choice. It is a condition. If you could choose, you'd shake it off right here, right now.
5:06 am
o-o
It is not a choice but there are coping skills that can ameliorate downside
5:07 am
o-o
I am so much better than I was ...
5:07 am
puglet
did something real bad happen to bring the depression on OO or is it a chemical inbalance
5:07 am
sprite
so? So you are a challenge. Not a crime, that. Intelligent people are always a bit of a challenge in therapy. And your depression is very severe, so that is a challenge too. It should incite them to find out more, stretch themselves and try and find something that will benefit you.
5:08 am
o-o
chemical imbalance is a term of art that is losing favor ..
5:08 am
sprite
that is great, o-o. And that progress is all your own. I know I have said it before, but I will say it again: I admire you. For keeping on trying, for holding on and for reaching out to others and offer them support.
5:08 am
puglet
so true Sprite and those awful things said wouldnt help anyone
5:09 am
puglet
and look at the ones you help just being here
5:10 am
o-o
the medical model promoted by big pharma has been discredited ... a more holistic approach seems to work better
5:10 am

5:10 am
puglet
Hi Ruby and yes--my computer pooped out on me
5:11 am
sprite
now that, I believe in, o-o. It isn't 'just' chemicals. There is a lot that influences our chemical state. Glad science is finally getting the point.
5:11 am
sprite
hiya ruby, good morning. Yeah, smallish. But with a bit of venom in the tail.
5:12 am
o-o
dualism as a model I hope disappears too ... instead of having separate treatment for physical and mental ... a treatment team should formulate a plan that address both mental and physical
5:13 am
sprite
my psychiatrist says openly that for every thing she knows about how the brain functions, there are a thousand things she has not learned and a million things science doesn't know. And she says that everything interacts... body, mind, emotions, outside influences, everything.
5:13 am
o-o
chronic illnesses may lead to mental disorders and mental disorders may lead to physical conditions ... treat the whole problem slate
5:14 am
sprite
YES! Exactly. Like the chicken and the egg, the whole discussion about what comes first is useless. It is a complex of issues and should be treated like that.
5:17 am
puglet
I think each person is complex so how can one doctor think they got all the answers
5:17 am
o-o
Now we know neurons (axons) projected across synapses are not the only way the brain works ... the glia has a prominent role too
5:18 am
puglet
when they themselfs are as complex as the rest of us
5:19 am
sprite
that is interesting. I thought the glia had a supporting function for the neurons.
5:20 am
sprite
indeed, pug, lol. So true. But a lot of psychiatrists and therapists don't realise that.
5:20 am
puglet
How are things with you Miz Ruby?
5:21 am
o-o
the glia has its own functions too
5:21 am
sprite
wow. Fascinating. Will read up on that after babble, o-o.
5:22 am
o-o
Now the good old boys are finally realizing the brains of men and women differ .... the best treatment may differ ... more studies on women are needed
5:22 am
rubyfoo
as poopy as the grid, pugs
5:23 am
sprite
jeez that took them long enough. I have so enjoyed reading the books of the Pease couple. So clear how male and female brains differ.
5:23 am
o-o
It is appropriate to ask your treater if there a separate studies for women that guide the treatment.
5:24 am
puglet
aw Ruby, hugs--you need to talk about it?
5:24 am
sprite
*gives ruby a big hug*
Am enjoying the grid... love you poopy or otherwise.
5:24 am
sprite
good idea, o-o. She is always eager to learn of new discoveries and studies.
5:25 am
rubyfoo
it is so bad, I'll have to write to you seperately, pugs
5:25 am
puglet

5:26 am
rubyfoo

5:26 am
puglet

5:27 am
rubyfoo
yes, at least that is OK, so I don't have to worry about that
5:28 am
puglet
thats so good! Iam so glad for you on that matter
5:29 am

This new technique fueled a flurry of research around the world using this new imaging method to study how nerve cells work, but very soon scientists were confronted with something completely unexpected and entirely beyond the neuron doctrine. Notably in the laboratory of Stephen Smith, now at Stanford University, but in many other laboratories as well, information was seen flowing freely not only through neurons, but through non-neuronal cells as well--glia.
How do glia communicate? What does this glial communication mean? What can glia, "the other brain" do beyond what the neuronal brain can accomplish?
5:30 am
puglet
I went to the store yesterday and here they had halloween, thanksgiving and xmas stuff all out at the same time
5:30 am

5:31 am

5:31 am

5:33 am

5:52 am

5:54 am

thanks for being so nice
5:54 am

am not, lol. Just saying it as it is.
5:54 am
puglet
what big plans do you have for the week end
5:54 am
puglet
how is hubbys vacation going
5:56 am
sprite
writing a couple of letters, getting our finances ready to process for if the loan gets approved, laundry, cuddling with my love. And if the weather opens up a little bit, cleaning out my veggie garden boxes.
5:57 am
puglet
you still having alot of rainy weather
5:57 am
sprite
hubby's vacation is already over, sigh. Two whole weeks gone. He is off to help at the canoe club. They have their periodical day of club chores.
5:58 am
puglet
gosh that was a fast two weeks
5:58 am
sprite
but vacation was good for him. He is more relaxed now, and we had a talk about how he always ends up overburdened, at work and at home. He says I opened his eyes and he is going to say no more often.
5:58 am
sprite
yeah. The first week wasn't fun, with Tim and all. Second week was a lot better.
5:59 am
puglet
knowing how to say no is a good thing
6:00 am
sprite
very. Rob always feels responsible and takes on more than his share. And it eats him up on the inside. Am glad he is going to take better care of himself.
6:01 am
puglet
I know for myself Ive took on more then I should by not saying no, you feel like you are going to hurt someones feelings or let them down
6:03 am
sprite
exactly. And the worst thing is, people don't appreciate it when you do that. So you end up in a triple bind... angry at yourself for taking on more than you should, angry at the people who should do their share, and angry and hurt because you are not even appreciated for taking on too much.
6:04 am
puglet
You hit that right on the nailhead! We dont usually learn that until later in life-lol
6:04 am
sprite
*grin* Ain't that the honest truth!
6:05 am
puglet
If only we could go back in time and take all the knowledge we've gathered--lol
6:06 am
sprite
ah well, you know what they say... 'never repeat a mistake, there are so many new ones to make'
6:07 am
puglet
thats a good one! You think when we are taken up above that in our life there we do get to remember what weve learnt here
6:07 am
sprite
if not, that would negate the whole point of living for me.
6:09 am

8:09 am
hurshy
well she seemed nice i guess but you know she'd been signing autographs and taking pics for like 3 hours already so, i mean, it's not like running into someone randomly, she was probably real tired. but, yeah, impressive to still be nice enough at that point.
8:10 am
zoozzoom
Tr7 someone still learning the ropes in a job?
8:11 am
Volta
Certainly. I'm not sure if I could manage to still be nice!
And yes, Zoozzoom, she certainly gives off a good vibe - although I haven't seen her on TV much. The original Star Trek was a bit before my time!
8:11 am
Volta
About 25 years before my time ;)

!! just when i thought that we as a species could not become any more cruel to animals,i find this.it is not pretty,it is not a funny tidbit but one we should be aware of.i have verified this through many services including snopes and it is the real deal nothing gross but just the sad things we as humans do... http://tinyurl.com/kvhh4oj

zoozzoom
Not sure if i want to see it, Crossy...hope you don't mind if i pass this one up.

Srabs, you are one I watch--I have a camp in Vermont and used to go on the Long Trail regularly, but I've gotten too old for the climb, alas--and only shorter trail walks. So I relish your taking off on hikes and bikes. I swim fine though. I suggested my camp to Minveryork last summer but not enough babblers could make it to Burlington

9:57 am
MimiCat
It's difficult for people to imagine not being "attached" to their bodies, however, I had a near-death experience and, trust me, when your spirit is free from the body, it's wonderful and you no longer do feel part of it anymore...after all, YOU are not there at that point.
9:58 am
o-o
I never trust those who say trust me
9:58 am
MimiCat
...rain...just a memory for me...sigh.
9:58 am
crosshair
well,we are not bodies,we are souls and the vessel in which it resides is just bags of meat eh?

I had a profound experience early in my nursing days. Was an aide in a nursing home. Became very attached to a lady resident. When she began to die, I was frantic...as the aide I would have to prepare her body. When she died I came in the room and realized our body's are just a shell. I was 19...very life changing
10:00 am
crosshair
carefull,do not use up all the big words at once.i save a few for the afternoon,myself
10:00 am

Crossy, being a believer in the soul, that is sort of how I explained things to my kids and grandkids re: death. I likened the body to a house where the soul lives and when it gets too old and collapses, the soul moves to a better home.
10:00 am
crosshair
i am sure it was life changing for you,jilly
10:01 am
o-o
you have such a bright outlook, mimi .... no wonder your children cozy up to you
10:01 am

3:17 pm
crosshair
Now i want fish and chips...
3:19 pm
Soodle
Yup. I have the house to myself. I'm thinking of treating self to a takeout. Just can't decide between fish n chips, Chinese, Indian or pizza. Oh decisions, decisions! :-)
3:19 pm
crosshair
Either the fish and chips orchinese as far as i am concerned
3:23 pm
crosshair
Do you have malt vinegar in the house? If so then some nice halibut in a thick crunchy beer batter with crispy chips covered in sea salt and malt vinegar

3:27 pm
Soodle
Oh, the traditional chippers supply malt vinegar by the bucketful. Think I'm veering towards a nice cod n chips.
3:28 pm
crosshair
Our fish and chip places do a terrible job,so i do my own more often than not
3:28 pm
joso
and deep frying at home scares the crap out of me
3:29 pm
crosshair
It can be tricky
3:31 pm
crosshair
I have one of those deep frying pans for battered fish and i oven fry the chips
3:31 pm
joso
what oil do you use?
3:32 pm
crosshair
Iuse a nice peanut oil as it hasahigh smoke point and does not transfer flavours
3:33 pm
joso
I had chips done with olive oil in greece, a very good result.
3:33 pm
crosshair
You can reuse it many times
3:34 pm
crosshair
Yes,anice virgin oil works well also
3:34 pm
crosshair
A different flavor though,but very nice
3:35 pm
crosshair
When i bakemy chips icoat the soetimes with a olive oil herb andspice blend
3:36 pm
crosshair
Only need 2 tbs of oil for a whole tray of chips
3:38 pm
joso
I suppose my fear of deep frying has made me extra careful the few times I've done it, but farming it out is even safer still. but of course you loose control of quality.
3:39 pm
crosshair
I never deep fry with a lot of oil.scares me a bit as well.an inch or 2 in a deep fry pan is as far as i will go
3:42 pm
crosshair
I shudder when people tell me of how they deep fry entire turkeys
3:46 pm
joso
yea, there is a video of a guy dropping a turkey into a full pot of hot oil, not considering the displacement factor. fortunately he was doing it on his driveway, lost his car and garage in any case
3:47 pm
72 Temple Owl
fried turkey is succulent. juicy moist and flavorful. proper tecnique and the right oil makes frying healthier than one miht think.
3:48 pm
72 Temple Owl
frying got a bad name from restuarant using lard and solid shortening over and over again to save $.
3:48 pm
kje
I've had it, it is good, still prefer roasted
3:49 pm
joso
I don't doubt that it is delicious, just too much of a chicken to try it myself.
3:49 pm

3:50 pm
kje
it was so common in dallas that the news did public service announcements re turkey frying safety
3:50 pm
72 Temple Owl
