If you swallow a watermelon pit
you will grow one in your belly! :)
Snort and swallow is the worst - or belching.
ICK!!!

Any out there with Lap-Band or
gastric bypass done? Would love to hear your experiences and comments. Thinking about it for me.
I am considering a lap band
Minimally invasive, easily reversible. Ironically, the surgeon at our local hospital who probably does 15-20 gastric bypass procedures a week has a lap band himself - not bypass surgery. What does that tell you?
I worked at that hospital for five years and transcribed many, MANY diagnostic imaging reports on patients who had problems with gastric bypass surgery, some of them several years after they had it done. It is tempting, but I am not ready to spend the rest of my life eating one or two ounces at a time and worrying about malnutrition because of impaired vitamin absorption.
I am having my yearly physical next month and I will talk to my doc them about a lap band. Personally, I would not consider anything else. Too dangerous.
Never take them off - band and diamonds. nm

how about liquid band-aid?

Municipal band
The next town over from where I live has free municipal band concerts every Thursday night in the summer. They do classical, popular and movie/show music. They've been doing this for 77 years. There is a bandshell in the park downtown, parking is free and you can bring a picnic supper. The town festivals always have free musical entertainment. Sometimes the downtown merchants sponsor an evening of free music.
Try going up or down in band size.
For example, try a 34 DD or a 38 C. When you go up or down in band size, it changes the size of the cups. I ended up having to do that and you'd be surprised how different the cup sizes are when you adjust the band size.
FYI - Rock Band
We were going to trade in 1 guitar for the rock band set and were told the Rock Band still has a lot of kinks to work out and the sales person advised us to wait until after this Christmas as it will probably be the big thing for Christmas and the problems will be worked out.
I would love to get the 80's one too! I didn't know they had that! My husband was a DJ in highschool and I bet he would love that. Ok, that's now on his xmas list. lol Thanks!
Another band geek here
Also a flute player; principal flute in concert band my senior year, only flute in jazz band. Too much of a goody two shoes for drugs or alcohol or stretching exercises, even... did take part in a Vietnam war protest or two, and walked several miles to school on the first Earth Day, which accomplished exactly nothing because the diesel exhaust-belching school buses ran anyway, regardless of whether I rode them or not.
And I may join up with some friends for the "Teed Off Party" on the 4th of July....
had dinner with the band a few years ago
A friend of mine works for them and asked if I wanted to go before the concert. Loved it!!! Great band
Don't you think he sounds like the other boy band guys? sm
To me he sounds like the guys already on the radio so there's nothing that has come from his mouth that I'd want to buy.
Plus he dresses funny - wouldn't want a CD cover with a goofy outfit on it staring at me ! My husband thinks he's gay because sometimes he wears gay type clothes... especially that whatever it was last night.
White. Big Band or Disco

A good friend of mine had a lap band
However there are a lot of hoops to jump through testing wise before you can have those procedures done including a psychiatrist. Also if you do not follow the directions you can become sick, which means you cannot over eat and must exercise. She is doing fine with it, but did it mainly because her back bothered her so much. Come to find out her back is still an issue and she needs surgery to correct that. So, if it is a last resort, I'd say it is worth a try, but I would not do it with all of the complications and risk of infections unless it is a serious must.
Marching on the field at band camp ...sm
it was my freshman year of high school. One of the adult volunteers heard it on the radio, ran to the band director crying and insisted that he stop the practice because of the news.
Problem wearing wedding band..sm
I was recently dx with RA, and have been having some issues wearing my wedding band. Two main problems - my fingers get puffy and wearing the band makes my hand itch (even though they are solid gold). I was thinking about getting a tattoo'd ring on my ring finger, but I was wondering if you all could come up with some ideas that are creative but perhaps not as painful...I don't mind the permanancy, as I am married with the intention of staying that way for life.
Thanks in advance, y'all.
HC 
I had a somewhat similar experience with my wedding band...sm
Quite suddenly my finger would itch underneath my ring. It would become red and almost blister like. I would have to take my ring off for a few days for it to go away. I took the ring, which is not a plain band - has two rows of diamonds so the underside is not smooth, to the jeweler and had it cleaned. It hasn't happened again since. It wasn't dirty to the naked eye, but there was apparently something in there. Perhaps your diagnosis and your reaction is a coincidence. It's worth a try.
spent NYE playing Rock Band for PS2
a lot of fun though discovered I'm never going to be a drummer (or a singer) :) So I guess I won't quit my day job.
Strike up the band, blow up the balloons!
Ready to celebrate. I wrote here some time ago about a problem with a CPA cousin. My father died and he put in writing and also told the people where he worked any money coming from there should come to me. When I got the money it had to be made out to estate of .......My cousin who supposedly was taking care of my father's last bill, etc. told me I could not cash the checks (duh) and to send to him for putting in estate money. I asked him to pay off father's last owed bill out of the money (he never did this 3 years ago now) and did not probate my father's will (said not enough there left after most all spent). I wrote a letter to cousin finally last year and said I wanted this back, next of kin, basically belonged to me. Ignored, another letter, ignored and finally asked on here who to contact for the head of CPAs and a person told me. Thanks to you, contacted the officials and after giving my cousin a deadline and telling him I had contacted the people over him, he finally sent me a check on the very last day of the deadline I gave him!! Now I wonder with him doing family like this, who else has he jipped?
I wear only my wedding band and engagement ring...sm
No other jewelry is on my fingers or wrists when I type.
I love an alternative rock band called
Minus the Bear and so does my 15 yo son. 
I don't wear my wedding band or my engagement ring. I took them off six years ago because...SM
My DH and I were having marital difficulties and he never and I mean NEVER wore his wedding from day one of marriage. He works on cars and stuff and claimed it got in his way, WHATEVER! Back then he was going out his buddies every once and while and still didn't put his ring on.
So we had a huge fight and I took my rings off and said until you put yours on, I'm not wearing mine. Well, we got marriage counseling and saved our marriage and now everything is fab, but he still doesn't wear his ring because in all the years he didn't wear it, he lost it! I wanted to buy him a new one, but cheapo that he is, he doesn't want us to spend the money. So I haven't put mine rings back on and I won't. It drives him nuts. He makes comments every now and then about men flirting with me cause I'm not wearing my rings. I just shrug and say "it's just a ring, you know I love only you," which is the line he used to give me.
I'm going to break him down one of these days and we'll go ring shopping! We have a great marriage now, but there's just this one little battle. He knows I'll win eventually. We're both just really stubborn.
Long story short, men act like things like wearing our wedding rings and engagement rings aren't a big deal to them, but really it is.

I mean grants. Found a local one. Thanks!
nope
No, just saw my regular doctor a long time back who prescribed one of the ergotamine drugs and I had a bad reaction to it, got extremely cold hands and feet and nearly passed out and thought I was going to die. I could neither lie down nor sit up and got breathless and didn't know if it was serious enough to rush for medical help. Luckily it passed after about an hour, and I never tried it again. The worst part is trying to sleep all through the night for 3 nights with the pain which keeps waking me up. I am not sure if I should visit an ENT doctor or a neurologist or both, seeing how I get two types of headaches every month, one on each side. Am seriously thinking of stopping at least the hair color use so the sinusitis will subside, but the migraine?
nope. not in the least. sm
I have opened my umbrella in the house quite a bit and nothing bad ever happens. I had a black cat too for 13 years and she passed on, but she was a good companion. Life is life and these things are not going to bring you bad luck, good luck, or anything else for that matter. life is too short.
Nope.
I can't imagine not having my siblings and wanted my kids to have the same.
Nope, not just you
It's getting flat out ridiculous. So sad, I've loved Y&R for as long as I can remember. 
Nope - NC!
It's a hot weekend, may as well shop when not working, LOL.
Nope really can't
But, I maybe able to get away with not having to put dd in daycare so that would $250 a month I would not have to worry about. I don't really know but if I can pay less on family insurance that might be a plus.
There was a job opening at a manufacturing warehouse to work in the collections department for $11.50 an hour. I passed that up because it would have been a little bit of a paycut...... but then again, maybe not because for family health insurance I would not have to pay a dime, company covers all. That would be $145 a month that would not be going out. Plus they get retirement, company stock.
I live in a small town. Our hospital is going to VR. They have not said anything about cutting back on employees yet but if they do, I am sure they will keep the better producers..I just thought this was an opportunity to bow out gracefully. I am feeling better than I did yesterday when I first posted.
NOPE. That's what THEIR med. ins. is for! - sm
And if the kid had a recently-operated-on finger, why wasn't it bandaged/casted, etc. At least that would've alerted you and others who know the child that she needed to take it easy.
Nope
Did none of what you listed...mostly just asked around, mentioned the name, and bam...info abounds! Sorta like Google ya know, but in a more personal fashion...
nope
As Dorothy said at the end of Wizard of Oz, "Next time I go looking for my heart's desire I won't look any further than my own backyard."
Nope...not twice...sm
Adultery is just the ultimate betrayal. I mean I know some people make mistakes but that is very painful. Forgiving once would be hard enough but twice no. And besides seems to me it is like saying ok go ahead and cheat on me and I will just forgive you later.
Nope, not me
I'm just little ol me. I've worked for the same company for 3 years and love my job so I wouldn't be able to give any information (useful or not useful) to anyone. Also for new MT questions...I leave that for the QA or more experienced MTs to answer.
I do try to stay positive. In fact one time my SIL told me that my attitude on life is way too positive and wondered if I ever get mad. :-)
Nope
Look at this way, if the patient is terminal and the meds "might" help, you could spend the time you have left chasing the dream of a cure. I would rather spend the time with my family rather than chasing something that "might" help me.
nope, i don't buy it.
I am only 5Ƈ" and could conceivably fall in, but i could also get out, unless someone was sitting on the lid...
Um, nope, I'm not saying that.
That would be a New Age thing, or Kaballah, or some other politically correct type of spirituality. Christians might say the Holy Spirit lives in someone who is saved, but that's not the same thing AT ALL.
Nope...nm
ss
Nope, already there
Does no good to worry- just think what the other alternative is. I really enjoy these "golden years." Just think, this year after reaching 66, my property taxes come down from over 2500.00 to 800.00- I am able to work and still get social security which makes my income twice of what it is before drawing, i get reduced prices in stores, movies, theater and the like, restaurants. I have only 2 slight medical problems, both controlled with medication once a day, basically money situation so much better than when raising a family, do what I like when I like. A wonderful time for me.
Nope...sm
My husband doesn't hit me and never has. That just isn't his nature. It infuriates him for a man to hit a woman. I couldn't take someone hitting me when they got ticked off at me.
NOPE
The boy is 13 and he could probably make his own mind whether or not he wants this. What if he said for his own beliefs that he doesn't want it. What makes the courts decide in a persons personal health decision anyway. I WOULD get my patient chemo. IN FACT they already went 1 dose of it themselves. Government stay out away from out families!!!
Nope, not even in traffic.
:P
No hot dogs either! Nope.
x
Nope ~ used to have a cat named Sam...
now have 2 cats, Lucky and Tripp, and a shetland sheepdog, Casey, which was on my list of baby names, but DH didn't like it.
haha.. nope. they don't but they may
during teenage years! LOL. TOO FUNNY!
Nope - missed that.
Sorry.
Nope. It is not your business to tell them.
