Woman falls into freezer & dies

How can you do that? Wouldn't it have to be an awfully big freezer? Regardless, what a horrible way to die.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — Police say a woman accidentally fell into her freezer and died before a friend found her and called authorities.

Colorado Springs Sgt. Tim Hogan says a woman called police Saturday morning to report her friend was dead in the freezer. Hogan says that an initial investigation makes it appear the woman fell into the freezer, then got trapped and suffocated before she could get out.

Foul play is not suspected. The woman was not immediately identified, and police didn't say how long the woman had been dead in the freezer before her friend found her.

I like Great Falls because I grew up here and have a lot of friends and family, but the Kalispell area is so beautiful in the Flathead Valley.  Flathead Lake is huge, and the scenery is breathtaking.  The town of Big Fork on Flathead is my favorite, but that area is much more expensive than Great Falls.

I also lived in Portland for 1 year and thought it was great there, but I missed my family and friends and all the mountains too much.  I loved how green everything was there.  The "green season" here is pretty short.

I'm not trying to jinx you, but in the event you make too much money to qualify for insurance, you can start making payments now to the hospital and an OB for care and labor/delivery. I am due May 8 and even though we have insurance (kind of crappy insurance) it is still a butt load of money for an uncomplicated birth. We started making monthly payments from the start to the hospital and the OB so it wouldn't be so bad all at once.

Also, if you do qualify for Medicaid and WIC (and this is your first baby like me), take advantage of any covered birthing classes and educational classes. I have taken classes and learned so much! It takes the stress off a little bit when you know what to expect.  Good luck!

If you do not know who he is good his name and watch the video on  the Last Lecture.   I have his book on order.  Had such a great outlook on Live .   RIP.

Like an idio t, i thought it was my imagination that stuff wasn't getting cold enough or frozen hard enough in my fridge/freezer so i haven't said anything to the manager of our townhous complex.  around Wedesday I noticed my cool whip wasn't frozen. Now my "frozen" fish sticks are softer and easy to break.  Are they safe to eat? what happens if a "keep frozen" food gets thawed out? Is it still safe to eat?? The office isn't open until Monday and he probably won't get here until Monday afternoon at the earliest so what do I do with all my food in the meantime??

This has nothing to do with being a christian, it has more to do with group dynamics. I have to deal with it all the time with 6 women in an in-law situation. They are narrow-minded Bible-thumping bigots.I happen to be of another "denomination" and I do attend every function of theirs, weddings, funerals, all of it, receive their communion. I have had my parents die, lost my younger sister and many things happen where they could have reciprocated, yet they will not "step foot" in my church. So where is all their faith, they certainly are not practicing the do unto others. I can relate, it is a horrible way to live. Thank God, I had psychology courses and know about group dynamics, I am in the middle of a herd mentality. I could go on forever, they even have "interventions" when someone in their family wants to marry or date someone not from their denomination. They are awful. I know your pain! It's not your imagination, they hide behind their cohesive "numbers game," one speaks and all the others agree in unison. No one has a chance against this mob. It's tough to be your own person, lots of tears. And guys think it's all in our heads - NOT!  Hang in, perhaps you'll have a Divine Intervention somehow.

Spend some time together.

Give each little young lady a handmade card/voucher that she can cash in to spend time with you one-on-one, whether it be at the hair salon, lunch, walking in the park, just doing regular shopping stuff, going to a play or just sitting, talking, having a cup of tea and looking through family albums....It's the special time that'll be cherished. 

Oh, and 50-ish is not old.....I know 70 to 85-yo young ladies who can run circles around me with their enthusiasm, drive, ambition and joy for life.   Cat 

graduated college last year?  She was all over the news, GOD BLESS HER!!  Had all her wits about her......just old looking is all....

Education doesn't stop until we die - so by all means 40+ is still young in that many change career directions many times in ones' life...

That an employee told her to use the MRI machine at the zoo?

When a 5-foot, 275-pound woman found out she had a tumor on her spine, she was told by her local hospital to go the zoo to have a MRI because a regular MRI machine could not hold her weight, myfoxkc.com reported.

Carolyn Ragan told the television station she discovered the tumor two years ago and, after the hospital told her she could not use their MRI machine, a medical assistant said he would help her find a solution.

“So he suggested the Kansas City Zoo,” Ragan said. “I thought, I know I’m big, but I’m not as big as an elephant. And my husband got mad.”

The University of Kansas Hospital would not comment on Ragan’s claim, but said its MRI department does not know of any animal MRI in the Kansas City area that would scan a human.

Ragan’s problem was two-fold: She was too heavy for the table and too wide to slide through the opening.

Medical Imaging in Kansas City North, which has both closed and open MRI machines can typically hold up to 440 pounds, but sometimes a person who weighs less can still be out of luck, according to an MRI technician.

“It depends on how they are built a lot of times and what part of their body we’re scanning,” said technician Sarah Abbott of Medical Imaging. “(The machine) can only be so open before the magnetic field dissipates into the room.”

Ragan, who ended up having two surgeries and some paralysis, said she finally found an open MRI machine that held her weight, but it was embarrassing and frustrating.

“They should have machines that fit most everybody,” she said.

My kids were out of clothes.  Yes, I'm behind on laundry.  So I wash some stuff, toss it in the dryer and I hear something going "ping" and it won't turn on.  I just pulled it completely apart, put it back together and it's working.  Yeah me!  A screw had come out and fallen down inside of it.  I can't believe how full of lint the inside was too.    I do, however, have 6 extra screws that should be in there somewhere lol.

Ok, so when we were kids, my brothers would go to the barber.  They get their hair cut and he put this stuff on their hair that smelled so good.  Like a finishing cream or something.  I am trying to find some of this for my hubby and son for after their hair cuts (I am the barber of the family).  Does anyone have any idea what this could be?  I don't even know what to search for.  It wasn't gel, hairspray, or anything like that.  It wasn't stiff.  Just smelled really good.  Would be wonderful if you could help me find it or give me suggestions of what it could have been.

Thanks!

That is what she told Sharon when she was begging for her life and the life of her unborn son.  Then she and one of her buddies proceeded to stab Sharon 16 times and slaughtered all of her houseguests.  Then wrote words on the walls in Sharon's blood.  They also shot a teenager 4 times who was just leaving. Then the next night they (I don't think Atkins was involved in that this one though) went out again and killed 2 more people and wrote words on the walls with the victims blood again.   There were more killings also before that.

These people were worse than animals, killed for no reason whatsoever.   That "the devil made me do it" thing don't fly.  They knew right from wrong.  Linda Kasabian proved that by not following Manson's orders and sabataging his plans.  She was totally in love with Manson at the time too.   Atkins was originally sentenced death but somehow it was ruled unconstitutional and her sentence was reduced to life with parole.

We seem to have a lot of guys out there, with their ranks constantly expanding, whose only purpose in being in a relationship is to do as little as possible in exchange for a much as possible.  Their sense of entitlement is huge - they expect the woman to be breadwinner or equal earner, cook and housekeeper, social secretary, financial guru, babysitter, the list goes on forever.  In exchange they must be begged to do the simplest tasks like taking out the garbage or yardwork - often they just flat refuse to do anything at all and the woman ends up doing everything.  The couch potato guys get their way and end up doing nothing but being a housepet or overgrown child, and eventually the woman realizes these guys are bringing nothing, and I mean nothing!, to the relationship but mess, hassle and arguments.  She realizes she doesn't need him - and that's the way he wants it to stay.  These men engineer their own divorce, and deserve it, by refusing to be a partner in any sense of the word.
