Thank you Scot- always a smile when I think they are all gone.
Thanks,

Bill, One suggestion might be to call the
facility ahead of time and inquiry about parking, seating,
restroom facilities, etc. Sometimes, they even let you
come in during off-hours and show you around, so you
can decide how it is set up before you buy your
concert ticket. Is there a local advocacy group there who
could give you tips about that particular facility. I
know the concert facility in my hometown was notorious
for poor parking and seating for disabled folks when
it first opened, but a rousing outcry forced them to
improve the situation! Take care and hope you can enjoy
the concert!<br
Good question Bill.. I haven't a clue but hope someone comes in and posts an
answer that will help you.. Glad to see your post here as well ..Dorla

Hi, I was wondering about how things are set up
for handicapped people at concerts. There is one
coming up and I'd like to go but would like to hear how
others have done it. Seating and being able to see and
the likes. Ticket prices are rather expensive and I
don't want to waste it if I can't see it all.<br
1. Two antennas met on a roof, fell in love and got married. The ceremony
wasn't much, but the reception was excellent.
2. A jumper cable walks into a bar. The bartender says, "I'll serve you, but
don't start anything."
3. Two peanuts walk into a bar, and one was a salted.
4. A dyslexic man walks into a bra.
5. A man walks into a bar with a slab of asphalt under his arm and says: "A
beer please, and one for the road."
6. Two cannibals are eating a clown. One says to the other: "Does this taste
funny to you?"
7. "Doc, I can't stop singing 'The Green, Green Grass of Home.'" "That
sounds like Tom Jones Syndrome." "Is it common?" Well, "It's Not Unusual."
8. Two cows are standing next to each other in a field. Daisy says to Dolly,
"I was artificially inseminated this morning." "I don't believe you," says
Dolly. "It's true, no bull!" exclaims Daisy.
9. An invisible man marries an invisible woman. The kids were nothing to
look at either.
10. DejaMoo: The feeling that you've heard this bull before.
11. I went to buy some camouflage trousers the other day but I couldn't find
any.
12. A man woke up in a hospital after a serious accident. He shouted,
"Doctor, doctor, I can't feel my legs!" The doctor replied, "I know you
can't - I've cut off your arms!"
13. I went to a seafood disco last week...and pulled a mussel.
14. What do you call a fish with no eyes? A fsh.
15. Two fish swim into a concrete wall. The one turns to the other and says
"Dam!".
16. Two Eskimos sitting in a kayak were chilly, so they lit a fire in the
craft. Unsurprisingly it sank, proving once again that you can't have your
kayak and heat it too.
17. A group of chess enthusiasts checked into a hotel and were standing in
the lobby discussing their recent tournament victories. After about an hour,
the manager came out of the office and asked them to disperse. "But
why," they asked, as they moved off. "Because", he said, "I can't stand
chess-nuts boasting in an open foyer."
18. A woman has twins and gives them up for adoption. One of them goes to a
family in Egypt and is named "Ahmal." The other goes to a family in Spain;
they name him "Juan." Year's later; Juan sends a picture of himself to his
birth mother. Upon receiving the picture, she tells her husband that she
wishes she also had a picture of Ahmal. Her husband responds, "They're
twins! If you've seen Juan, you've seen Ahmal."
19. Mahatma Gandhi, as you know, walked barefoot most of the time, which
produced an impressive set of calluses on his feet. He also ate very little
which made him rather frail and with his odd diet, he suffered from bad
breath. This made him. (Oh, man, this is so bad, it's good)..... A super
calloused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis.
20. And finally, there was the person who sent twenty different puns to his
friends, with the hope that at least ten of the puns would make them laugh.
No pun in ten did.
To join my groups:
Yes. and maybe this will turn out to be a
foursome instead of a twosome.. lol..I sure wish more
would post. I know there are visitors each day but no
posts...I am disabled retired and make my home on the
internet. My hubby works 2nd shift and I puter in the
mornings to serve two purposes. One is my own fun time and
it also keeps the phone from ringing and waking him.
then off and on all afternoon and the evenings I pass
my time here. Love web pages and posts. Don't chat a
whole lot as seems there are an alful lot of disruptive
people in the general chats. Dorla
I apologize before you read this... but my Aunt Ramona sent me this:) WILL
The following is an actual question given on a University of Washington
chemistry mid-term. The answer by one student was so profound that the
professor shared it with colleagues, via the internet, which is why we now
have the pleasure of enjoying it as well.
Bonus question; Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic
(absorbs heat)?
Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyles Law (gas
cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant.
One student, however, wrote the following:
First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we
need
to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at
which
they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul
gets
to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving.
As for how many souls are entering Hell, lets look at the different
Religions that exist
in the world today. Most of these religions state that if you are not a
member of their
religion, you will go to
Hell.
Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not
belong
to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell.
With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of
souls
in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rat of change of
the
volume in Hell because Boyles Law states that in order
for
the
temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell
has to expand
proportionately as souls are added. This gives two possibilities.
l. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls
enter,
Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Helll will increase until
all Hell breaks lose.
2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the rate at which souls
enter
Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes
over. So which is it?
If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa (cheerleader
captain
and Class Valedictorian ) during my Freshman year, that "kit will be
a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you" and take into account the fact
that I slept with her last night and again this
morning, then number 2 must be true and thus I am sure that Hell is
exothermic, and has
already frozen over.
The corollary of this theory is that since has frozen over, if follows
that is is not accepting any more
souls and is therefore,extinct...leaving only Heaven. Thereby proving the
existence of a divine
being which explains why Teresa kept shouting "Oh my God!!!!"
This student received the only A.
Little Bruce and Jenny are only 10 years old but they just know that they
are in love. One day they decide that they want to get married, so Bruce
goes to Jenny's father to ask him for her hand. Bruce bravely walks up to
him and says "Mr. Smith, me and Jenny are in love and I want to ask you for
her hand in marriage."
Thinking that this was just the cutest thing, Mr. Smith replies, "Well
Bruce, you are only 10. Where will you two live?"
Without even taking a moment to think about it, Bruce replies "In Jenny's
room. It's bigger than mine and we can both fit there nicely."
Still thinking this is just adorable, Mr. Smith says with a huge grin,
"Okay then how will you live? You're not old enough to get a job. You'll need to support Jenny."
Again, Bruce instantly replies, "Our allowance.. Jenny makes 5 bucks a week and I make 10 bucks a week. That's about 60 bucks a month and that should do us just fine."
By this time Mr. Smith is a little shocked that Bruce has put so much thought into this. He thinks for a moment trying to come up with something that Bruce won't have an answer to. After a second, Mr. Smith says, "Well Bruce, it seems like you have got everything all figured out. I just have one more question for you. What will you do if t he two of you should have little ones of your own?"
Bruce just shrugs his shoulders and says "Well, we've been lucky so far..."
Mr. Smith doesn't think the little shit is adorable anymore...
