Maybe it was the thousands of cubans who got the hell out of there and came back telling us the terrible stories of things happening down there from personal experience? Doubt those things happen anymore. I dont know for sure but Id guess much of the population lives in fear and intimidation.

Im sort of ambigious on the topic of assisted suicide. One thing I am not ambigious about however is using technology and medicine to artificially keep someone alive (substitue "torture") beyond their obvious natural lifespan. WE JUST SHOULD NOT DO IT. Now should we use that same...

One thing I have noticed. When Im "feeling up" and in good spirits, I too am really quick to judge and point the finger. When Im down in the dumps. I become much more understanding and empathical towards others. For some people...when your down, you have no intrest in bringing others...

Dont worry about offending me. I wont take up an argument with you over this. From one Star Trek fan to another. Its not just religion. So many episodes about racism, hate, revenge, interference, respecting different peoples cultures, hell even homosexuality and sexism. The list goes...

Yes..that is always a possibility with chronic pain patients. I admit that. I just dont think that either you or me are in a position to judge a specific patient without reviewing the medical record, spending time with that person, and speaking with the doctor. Now lets be fair....dont...

The WORST THING YOU CAN EVER DO is have back surgery. In some cases it works...but as Squig pointed out So what good was the surgery. As many doctors will tell you (and so will I). There is a VERY GOOD CHANCE THE SURGERY WILL EITHER NOT HELP OR IT WILLMAKE THINGS WORSE. I would...

Edit: Yes EVERYONES view is important. But which are you going to believe? One example of first hand anectdotal experience followed by a knee jerk response that seems to idicate that HIS EXPERIENCE is generalizable to others.....the benchmark for which he will judge others? Or someone...

Squig is ONE PERSON. Ive seen and read thousands of records. I WAS TALKING ABOUT MY PERSONAL EXPIERENCE. Isnt it obvious?

Well then how about some more. I was the only one confused. And it was a J O K E . :confused: I never said you were a dick. I said DONT BE a .... and then gave an example. WAS THE EXAMPLE OF WHAT DICK WOULD BE As you can see, no direct name calling occured until now...

1940'S Germany here we come. Before long, if you speak out against authority, you'll suddenly "dissapear" in the middle of the night.

And you think because YOU can...everyone can? Thats pretty judgemental dont you think? Edit: And maybe YOU SHOULD READ THE THREAD BEFORE GETTING AN ATTITUDE.

That relieves the pain for about 30%-40% of patients (I dont care what the doctor told you). YOu cant judge the people in pain just because you are one of the lucky ones (assuming it did work for you). Rather than bragging about what a "great person you are" because you dont hurt...you...

Its ok really. You dont have to point out 7 average to talented black QBs who are currently playing to prove what great QBs black people make. :rolleyes: But the fact is...thats a difficult position for them to get on equal footing (I have no idea why) compared to the total domination...

Come on squig. Your incoherent enough without TRYING TO BE. :nuts:

Forget if you think I like rush or not (which I dont) This happens to a majority of chronic back pain sufferes. I used to work at a pain managment center as an RN and my brother went through this, so I have more first hand experience in this than most. The pain becomes intolerable. The...

Do you mean oxycontin?

Some of you know that I am a huge star trek fan. I find the hidden meanings in some of the episode...extremely profound. There has been much argument around here about if religion is true, a nice "guide" or somthing only for the weak minded. Now that we are in the age of science, there is...

Right. A thong would be hidden BY DESIGN. Except for the very top area which you might be able to see if the pants were very thin and a very light color. If thats what your going to wear then Id say it should be nothing at all, but thats a rather rare combination anyway.

There are millions of kids who live that way by choice...they are called teenagers. What was she supposed to do...the kid was probably big enough to resist her. I suppose she was supposed to call 911 because the kid would not take a shower? :confused: No I know...perhaps the jury would...

A good friend of mine did the same thing (using a coat hanger) around the same age. He was rather well off, not bullied around, and probably not as intelligent. So who can we take to court for him. Come on people the fact is "Shit happens" You cant always pick a source or figure...
