I totally see Pjjjjjjj's point: those who insist that doctors mustn't "play God" in deciding to allow someone to die, when their body has clearly had enough, are the same folks who demand that doctors intervene to save their loved ones under the same scenario. We need to pick one: either doctors...

Hey Critter - I left Texas yesterday, & Susie left today - don't know if anyone else is still there....

Ribs for me too - picked some up at Rudy's on my way out of Texas - really good! :)

Toured Fallingwater 2 years ago - pretty cool!

The number of wills that get contested offer a pretty good indication of how many families behave under stress - just sayin.

Just like FLW - but Fallingwater was a whole lot better than the gas station!

Fookin brilliant! :D

On that we can agree. OMG - did I just say that? Really?:D

Maybe just a wee bit - but that's alright, I do my share around here. :D ......Highway Star: I heard that!! [even before you said it, lol]

OK, it's the September thread, not the "Location only" one - I get confused, now that there are 2 or 3 on the subject, ok?

One: several of our esteemed members are deliberately screwing around with the 'experimental' thread - must be pretty freakin bored, is my guess. Two: many of us don't care to point out that certain members have a tendency to hold personal conversations way too often, because that's all we'd...

I read the article, 3 times, in fact. As the patient isn't speaking, it's just his daughter's [AKA the plaintiff] word, so far. I have been privy to [though not involved in] a lot of end of life discussions and decisions, and I know for a fact that family members can be completely irrational...

The thread for August has over 700 posts - and I don't read anything very fast, ever. Plus, I'm remembering when I had to use my cell for internet - jeez, did it take forever to scroll through some VERY large [footprint-wise] posts, lots and lots and LOTS of them, sigh. Why is it a problem...

You're not being fair - the reason cited is one used only for this experiment, and not otherwise. Though I'm not one who asked for a 'location only' thread, I too get tired of wading through hundreds of inane conversations to see if anyone is close by - I don't see the problem with attempting to...

Pjjjjjjj [not for the first time] beat me to the punch: we haven't any idea whether a single charge made by the plaintiff in this lawsuit is even remotely true. Aside from her claims, the only statements in the article are from 'experts' [I think that just means they replied to the reporter's...

If you believe there are, can you document it?

That's my favorite thing about the Blue Ant bluetooth: it speaks directly into my ear, announcing calls, asking for commands, etc. Works great as an alarm backup, if you ask a friend to call you, as it's comfortable enough to sleep with it in place.

Thank you, Leo - the location thread does tend to get way off track, and it gets tedious to wade through all the comments to see where others are. I'm making my way from Texas to Indy, for a Tuesday delivery.

I'd say that the Soapbox provides far more evidence of intelligence, creativity, and original observations than any other forum, slamming notwithstanding. We are all [presumably] grownups, willing to challenge the words of others - but if we aren't willing to be challenged in turn, then we...

To complain of "abuse, vulgarity, and just plain meanness" after having contributed this [among others, especially post #20] example of style & substance is the zenith of hypocrisy. And you just can't stand having it pointed out, so you take your ball & go home. Bye.
