But 275-pound footbal players are taller than 5 feet, therefore not so wide. nm

Question about i-Pod vs MP3 players

My daughter wants an i-pod for x-mas.  I do not understand these things.  Do you have to buy the downloads of music on top of the very costly equipment.  Whats the difference between i-Pods and MP3 players?  Any help for old santa here would be appreciated!!


 


Thanks


Was thinking he is just one of the office players. do not take it seriously.

The little dogs are named after WWII players...

Winston (the Churchill), Patton (the general), and Sherman (the tank).  All are little yappy dogs with severe "little man" syndromes.  My husband picked those names.  All the other names I picked...garden-variety simple girly girl names for my female farmyard animals.



Years ago, when I had a dog, I got her from the pound - sm
at 2-1/2 years of age, and she never even needed ANY training... she was so smart, I swear she already knew English. I could take her absolutely anywhere, too - hiking, driving, horseback-riding in the hills, to art shows downtown, in high-rise building elevators, to the beach, etc.

I can see why some people want papered animals, if they're looking for specific characteristics in a breed. But then, if you're going to bother to spend money for a pedigree, it might as well be a good one from a reputable breeder, where you're less likely to end up with a sick animal, genetic defects, etc. What I really DON'T get is the atrocious prices some people are charging for 'labradoodles', 'puggles', 'chi-weenies', etc. ??? That is SO strange.

I also don't get people who give up a pet just because they're 'moving' or 'having a baby'. What lame excuses to dump an animal they've grown tired of.

My cats are both rescues, too. As much as I dearly love kittens, since I spend so much time working, and it's impossible to properly kitten-proof my cluttered apartment, and especially since adult cats have a harder time getting adopted, that's the best choice for me. I even recently had success adopting a second, older adult cat after I'd had my younger one for almost a year. After a day or two of hissing, they now like each other, and even play a bit. Most importantly, they have company in each other when I'm not home.

Another thing I find apalling is the way dogs & cats are treated in Asia, but that's a whole 'nother story! With their horrible treatment of animals, over-fishing of the ocean, finning of sharks, whaling, killing endangered species for their 'medicines', exporting poisonous pet food, and rampant overpopulation, there doesn't seem to be much good to say about that part of the world these days....
Bet it had a pound of butter too;-)
I actually love the lady.  What a hoot.  Have to take my break from the ole computer during her show. 
And, I do not believe that 200 pound story
She is 5ƌ" and I think she has gained and weighs more than 200 she says she weighs.
All 3 of our cats and our 120-pound dog sleep with us in the bed
I couldn't imagine having it any other way. Our 3 cats and dog our like our kids. In fact, one of my cats is sleeping in my lap right now.
350 degrees - 25 minutes per pound SM
Put a rack in the bottom of the pan so the meat is not touching the liquid.  Put about a cup or so of water in the bottom of the pain with some cut up onions and a little salt and pepper.  Place the roast on the rack, fat side up.  No need to cover the roast if you want a good crusty layer of fat on the meat.  This also keeps the meat moist.

I buy the Walmart roast, I think it's 2.98 a pound. sm
I believe it said round roast on the sticker-the hunks I buy are around 10.00 apiece with absolutely no fat. My husband loves them. I put it in the oven frozen and cooked it all afternoon on low. Threw two small cans of V8 juice, a whole onion, some garlic and pepper. I thickened the juice with flour a little Gravy Master to darken the juice so it wouldn't be red and put in my potatoes, turned the oven up to 350 and everything was done and piping hot for hubby at 4:30. I had 1 slice, he ate the rest. Now, is that fair? LOL.
The "rag man" paid by the pound sm
My mom used to threaten to "sell us" to the rag man and when she was really mad, she would tell us she was "putting us in a 'home'." Yes, there were a lot of "homes" for unwanted kids then and there was also a "poor house." Oh gosh, I feel so old! And kids today think they have it bad when they can't play video games for the day!
Having community wide yard sale and
had it not been for this post I probably would not have checked my bracelets out. This was posted last week but I thought some that replied might be interested to know it was exactly like they thought, more expensive than just the average and collectable.
Me too - more of a road block really, flat and wide. :) Also known as ,

An unfortunate trait inherited from my mother's side of the family.
Last week, bananas were on sale for 39 cents per pound.

Aww! I loved that movie. Worst yet was Eyes Wide
Don't worry about it being too sexy. You won't be awake for those parts. The movie will put you to sleep in no time.
Doesn't she still live in that trailer? Or has she graduated to a double wide? lol

single wide are only kind to depreciate; hard to get loan

But this is not a school-wide accepted teaching practice, it is individual (nm)

Just checked my receipt from Sunday...0.69/pound. I didn't even notice.
I honestly don't know what is normal for bananas here (FL). I keep track of other items, but not bananas. You've got me curious now, though.
depends on if you are 4 feet 11 inches or 5 feet 9 inches...
don't you think?
Despise that wide-open mouth yawn right in front of my face w/o a hand or arm up to cover it.

What's on your feet?
I am curious if other transcriptionists have the same problem I have.  I can't seem to use the foot pedal with shoes on.  I am either barefoot, or wear socks or slippers.  I can't manipulate the foot pedal with shoes on.  Am I the only one?  If you wear shoes when you work, what kind?  Please don't tell me I'm the only one with this problem. 
I WISH those were my feet!! :-)
Those are my daughter's feet. Aren't they pretty?

The dog is a mutt. She's an incredible animal. She actually belongs to my ex. She's one of 3 dogs from the same litter that I raised, BUT everytime my ex came over, she went nuts. Like she was attached to him in some way. When I moved, I told him he had to take her because I could only take 2 dogs and he did. That dog is incredibly loyal to him in a very strong and almost psychic way. I know that sounds strange, but I've never seen anything like it.

Anyhow, I could tell you many stories about Clara (the dog). She has figured out how to get into child-proof cabinet locks (ex had to install them because when he left for work, she got into mischief -- she's 10 years old).

The rats.... we have 3. They normally stay in their cages because, yes, they will chew things up. But they are SO sweet!! My 2 other dogs aren't as gentle with the rats as Clara is (Clara actually plays with the rats), so they don't get out much.

I also have 3 mice. It is really interesting to observe the social and nesting skills of rodents. It's very obvious why they are such a nuissance in the wild! LOL.

My dogs are my sweeties, though, Clara's sister Izzi, and her half-brother, Fluffer. I'll try and post some pictures of them later.

BTW, love your doggie pics and your stories. I couldn't imagine a life without my animals. :-)

How could you know they were a kid's feet just

LOL !...Not only her feet.......nm

Down booties or something for the feet?

For someone who is on her feet all day long
how about a gift cert for a pedicure. She would get a foot massage, pedicure, and a back massage if they have those magic finger chairs.
That is 5 feet 4 inches. nm

My daughters just got done watching it. They loved it. From what I saw in between working it was a cute movie. But you're right, isn't it great to not have to pay for a rental, especially if the movie ends up being a dud? Better than paying the $8.75 at the theaters too.
I have a cat that does that!!!!! Jumps up to 6 feet

All I know is of course they have to wash their feet
because they sure "stepped in ****" when they came to this country! :)
I am 5 feet 2-1/2 inches. nm

Stinky feet!

Help, hubbie's feet stink and not just normal sweaty stink, but really bad! He woke up this morning with feet very red on the bottom and when he stepped on the wood floor he said they felt like they were sticking, not like sweat but like something oozing from them. Sorry for the graphic description, but we can't figure out what it might be. Anyone with any thoughts or suggestions on what he should do would be appreciated. I, of course told him he should go to the doctor, but he is a man and is very stubborn about this unless he is dying! I should note he has a cyst on one foot that he refuses to seek treatment for because he does not want to take the time off of work as he will ultimately have to have it removed surgically, but could this be part of the problem and why both feet now?


TIA


should be 5 feet 8 inches

I am having problems with my feet- sm
On 1 foot I have certain toes that will hurt. This past week it was the 1 right next to the big toe- really painful and I knew if I put weight on it it would hurt. That got a little better and yesterday on the same foot it was the little toe and the 1 right next to it plus along the sole, painful for about 2 days, does not again feel good to bare weight on it. I have been checked for neuropathy, nope, diabetes, nope, fasciitis, nope, Morton's neuroma, nope but my symptoms go on. Has anyone had anything similar? Anything you have done that helped yours? I am willing to try anything within reason to help this pain. Thanks!
Just put everything up about 3 feet from floor.

Move all plants up to counters and maybe a gate for the kitchen so you don't have to worry about babe getting into cupboards.  Also for any stairs.  They have those socket covers that are very cheap and I would put them in outlets and always make sure the toilet seat is down. Other than that, enjoy.   


Have you tried switching feet?
I switch back and forth between left and right foot on the pedal to alleviate discomfort and have found it makes a big difference.
She looks like she has clown feet...nm

My cat does that too! I thought maybe her feet

cold hands/feet

Any ideas for cold feet and frozen hands (fingers) when working?


Happy Feet movie

What was all the hipe about?  The kids and I were bored, bored and more bored.  Couldn't wait for the darn thing to finally be over.   Glad it was a free rental.  Not worth the $$$$ in my opinion. 


Found out why my feet were freezing sm
I even bought a pair of wool socks yesterday and tried them out last night. No go under the desk. Anywhere else they felt fine. Checked for a draft under the desk and found none. Figured out today that all I had to do was lower my foot pedal (I have it up on a stool and blanket, was more comfortable that way about 4 months ago). I took the blanket off and pushed the pedal back about 6 inches so I have to stretch for it and voila!  No more cold feet. I must have been pushing neuropathy symptoms with my pedal in the other position. Feet have felt fine for the last 3 hours! 
and I could paint with my feet if I had no arms
the question is if I had a choice, I think I would choose to have arms.
5 feet 11 inches tall that is, why you cannot put - sm
quotation marks for inches on this is annoying.
What happened? was supposed to say 5 feet, 1 inch.

Isn't that what they use in swimming pools? Very rough on the feet.

Yeah, plus, they were nice feet, I thought.
I used to have bunions, but I had one taken off. What a relief! The surgery wasn't bad at all, and I'm glad I had it when I was in my 30s and working at home, but oh the back pain from not being able to walk. That's why I never had the 2nd foot done, but it only hurts now and then since my other foot can bear a load now, unlike before the surgery.
Wouldnt wear them even if my feet DIDNT
