I'm guessing because a crag (hence Craig) is a cliff

It took me a minute too, and I'm just guessing.

I am guessing
that your rib pain is soft tissue and not the bones, but I think taking Vitamin D is not a bad idea (make sure you take calcium too). I'm not sure on the amount, but I'm sure you can Google to find it.
I am guessing by
That you are professional victim. I predict that your life will be full of endless confrontations, enemies, and drama.
Troops in Iraq throw a puppy off of a cliff.
Marine Corps Base Hawaii is investigating a shocking video of a smiling Marine throwing a puppy off the top of a steep hillside in Iraq into a gully below.
The video today gained widespread attention and condemnation on the Internet.
"The video is shocking and deplorable and is contrary to the high standards we expect of every Marine," the Kane'ohe Bay base said in a release.
Base officials said the video came to their attention this morning. An investigation has been initiated. Maj. Chris Perrine, a Marine spokesman here, said "it's looking like" the Marine is based out of Hawai'i.
"We do not tolerate this type of behavior and will take appropriate action," the base said.
Two Marines are seen in combat gear smiling as one holds a white-and-black puppy by the scruff of its neck. The dog seems to be about 8 weeks old and is motionless as it is held.
"Cute little puppy, huh?" says one Marine as he smiles broadly.
"Oh so cute, so cute, little puppy," says another in a child-like voice.
The Marine holding the puppy is then seen throwing the animal overhand into a desert-like gully below. The animal yelps until it thuds to the ground at the bottom of the gully.
"That's mean," one Marine says afterward.
The 2nd Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment of about 1,000 Hawai'i Marines recently replaced a sister unit in Iraq, the 3rd Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment.
Marine Corps Base Hawai'i said the vast majority of Marines "conduct their duties in an honorable manner that brings great credit upon the Marine Corps and the United States."
There have been numerous stories of Marines adopting pets and bringing them home from Iraq or helping to arrange life-saving medical care for Iraqi children. Those are the stories that exemplify what we stand for and how most Marines behave."
======================================

(Safe for work because it's blurry, but still very disturbing)
Some people have claimed it's possible the video is fake, but it doesn't seem likely.
Really, really sick.
This kind of twisted lack of humanity seems to stem partially from the brutal brainwashing soldiers go through in bootcamp, combined with the severe emotional stress of the field.
Whoever those guys are, I hope they're both discharged immediately, but I also hope they receive serious emotional help.
I'm guessing that's another word for ...sm
what my husband calls a sidewinder. Ewwww. All the males in his family do it.
I'm terrible at guessing sizes, myself...sm
I know it seems impersonal to a lot of people, but if you can't figure out her size, how about a gift certificate? I always ended up taking clothes back whenever I got them for Xmas...and I learned to appreciate the gift certificates, that way I could pick out what I really wanted myself....just a thought, though.....
I am also guessing that it is a hormonal thing..nm

I second that. Daniel Craig too!...
They are both my free pass...my DH's free pass is Sandra Bullock....
Try Craig's List.

I tried Jenny Craig...sm
but after the first week I gained 3 pounds. They were dumbfounded. They asked if I followed the diet to the letter and I did but I am not surprised that I gained weight. I cannot eat carbohydrates at all. If I do, I get a terrible sugar low where I practically have to crawl to the refrigerator to get food. So, I went on my own diet. I ate scrambled eggs and coffee with regular half-n-half. Lunch was always tuna in a packet with chopped pickles or tomatoes or both and a green apple and a cup of coffee and dinner was always chicken and caesar salad or fish and vegetables, cup of diet soda, and then a cup of coffee afterwards. I did occasionally cheat, i.e. couple of Tollhouse cookies but not very often or I would go out to dinner and eat something fattening. I also exercised at least four times a week for about 1 1/2 to 2 hours at the gym. I actually started this in about November but started walking 4 miles a day two months before in September but walking never really did help me to lose weight. It was the gym. Walking just toned my legs. I would walk 4 miles a day and then go to the gym for about 2 hours. From November to June I went from a size 24 to a size 12. I LOOKED FABULOUS AND FELT LITERALLY REBORN!! By the way, I thought the food at Jenny Craig but very, very good. My favorite was the french toast with the berries. There was a veggie burger that I did not like so I just did not choose that for my meals. But everything else, I felt, was delicious. It just didn't work for me. Good luck to you. Get that weight off and you WILL feel reborn!!!!!!
Has anyone posted pic on Craig's and
if so is it hard to do? I have some rugs that I want to take pictures of and sell but just recenty acquired a digital camera and just not sure how hard it would be for me to do that. I know how to send in email to others but can you give me an idea of how that goes?
Craig's List also has pets.
Sometimes even people trying to rehome adorable tiny dogs like a Yorkie.
Just a thought. Hope you get just the right family member for you, but there can be a lot of heartbreak from getting a dog from a breeder who only cares about the money instead of one who is trying to improve the breed and doesn't breed their dogs to death.
I hate to be all depressing when you just want a puppy. Sorry.
Anyone have success with Jenny Craig?
I would be interested in hearing your experiences. Is the food as good as they say? Val looks great!!!
Jenny Craig worked for me - no cooking.
Can be expensive, around 70 a week a few years ago, but I lost around 15 lbs in a few months.
That is NOT Craig Morgan signing. It sounds like
bad karaoke to me.
You could try Craig's list. Are you including pictures with your ads?
That always gets people too. Pictures of sweet little puppies.... AWWWW.
Right title, wrong singer - its Craig Morgan!!

Craig Morgan....Great voice and passion! ..sm

Song: Almost Home
 Cat
Album: I Love It
(Craig Morgan/Kerry Curt Phillips)
He had plastic bags wrapped 'round his shoes
He was covered with the evening news
Had a pair of old wool socks on his hands
The bank sign was flashing "5 below
It was freezing rain an' spittin' snow
He was curled up behind some garbage cans
I was afraid that he was dead
I gave him a gentle shake
When he opened up his eyes
I said,"Old man are you ok?"
He said,"I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree
I was runnin' from some honey bees
Drip dryin' in the summer breeze
After jumpin' into Calico creek
I was walkin' down an old dirt road
Past a field of hay that had just been mowed
Man I wish you'd just left me alone
'Cause I was almost home..."
Then he said,"I was just comin' round the barn"
'Bout the time you grabbed my arm
When I heard Momma holler son hurry up
I was close enough for my old nose
To smell fresh cobbler on the stove
And I saw daddy loadin' up the truck
Cane poles on the tailgate
Bobbers blowin' in the wind
Since July of ཱི
That's as close as I've been
"Yeah, I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree
I was runin' from some honey bees
Drip dryin' in the summer breeze
After jumpin' into Calico creek
I was walkin' down an old dirt road
Past a field of hay that had just been mowed
Man I wish you'd just left me alone
I was almost home"
I said,"old man you're gonna freeze to death"
Let me drive you to the mission
He said,"Boy if you'd left me alone
Right now I'd be fishin'"
"I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree
I was runnin' from some honey bees
Drip dryin' in the summer breeze
After jumpin' into Calico creek
I was walkin' down an old dirt road
Past a field of hay that had just been mowed
Man I wish you'd just left me alone
'Cause I was almost home"
"Man I wish you'd just left me alone
I was almost home..."

Look in the local freebies section of the paper or Craig's list
Sometimes a stove is free or really cheap. Look to see if anyone has one listed under appliances. Next, get a CAT! I have one who loves to mouse. He started when he was just a couple months old. He would rather catch mice than anything else in the world. I have never had a mice problem and I live in the country. Now the only thing is they're very proud of themselves when they do catch one and like to share it with those they love!

Such a great interviewer and SO handsome!
