That "intimacy" group wanting to form rejected me. Yup, me Mr. Humble Pie himself. But looking at the wordsmithing used in the rejection note, that's okay with me.
On the other hand, maybe it's a test for future rejections. :-}
Hi, my name is Paul and I am new to this group. I hope to meet some new friends

A professor at Texas A & M University was giving a lecture of the
supernatural.To get a feel for his audience, he asks, "How many people here
believe in ghosts?" About 90 students raise their hands. "Well, that's a
good start. Out of those of you who believe in ghosts, do any of you think
you have seen a ghost?" About 40 students raise their hands. "That's really
good. I'm really glad you take this seriously. Has anyone here ever talked
to a ghost?" About 15 students raise their hand."Has anyone here ever
touched a ghost?" 3 students raise their hands. "That's fantastic. Now let
me ask you one question further...Have any of you ever made love to a
ghost?" Way in the back, Bubba raises his hand. The professor takes off his
glasses, and says "Son, all the years I've been giving this lecture, no one
has ever claimed to have made love to a ghost. You've got to come up here
and tell us about your experience." The big redneck student replied with a
nod and a grin, and began to make his way up to the podium. When he reached
the front of the room, the professor asks, "So, Bubba, tell us what it's
like to have sex with a ghost?"
Bubba replied, "Shiiiit! From way back thar I thought you said "Goats."

In case you arent familiar with how our government is SUPPOSED to work:
The chain of responsiblity for the protection of the citizens in New Orleans is:
1. The Mayor
2. The New Orleans Director of Homeland Security (a political appointee of the Governor and an individual who reports to the Governor)
3. The Governor
4. The Head of Homeland Security
5. The President
What did each do?
1. The mayor, with 5 days advance, waited until 2 days before he announced a mandatory evacuation (at the behest of the President). Then he failed to provide transportation for those without transport even though he had hundreds of buses at his disposal.
2. The New Orleans director of Homeland Security failed to have any plan for a contingency that has been talked about for 50 years. Then he blames the Feds for not doing what he should have done. (So much for political appointees)
3. The Governor, despite a declaration of disaster by the President 2 DAYS BEFORE the storm hit, failed to take advantage of the offer of Federal troops and aid - Until 2 DAYS AFTER the storm hit.
4. The Director of Homeland Security positioned assets in the area to be ready when the Governor called for them
5. The President urged a mandatory evacuation, and even declared a disaster State of Emergency, freeing up millions of dollars of federal assistance, should the Governor decide to use it.
Oh and by the way, the levees that broke were the responsibility of the local landowners and the local levee board to maintain, NOT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.
The disaster in New Orleans is what you get after decades of corrupt (democrat) government going all the way back to Huey Long.

If you have already registered we will see you there. If you have any problems registering just let me know by contact information is at the bottom of this e-mail.
i'm so sorry to hear that....I'll definitely keep Chris in my prayers.
Hello everyone ...I just wanted to let you all
know that Chris is still in ICU...he was put on a vent
today because his breathing is still very labored. He
has double pneumonia and fluid on his right
lung....He is in stable condition for now...keep your
fingers crossed.<br
prayers...and keep praying ( he's not out of the woods
yet)<br
I wondered where Chris was. Sorry to hear about
your trouble. I wish for a speedy recovery. Dorla, I
saw where you finally got some rain-hope it soaks in.
Even with our rain last week we are still listed as
being in a drought and several surrounding counties
already have water rationing. It looks like it's going to
be a long hot summer.
Welcome newcomers. This is a great place with
lots of great people. BigDawgz, hope ya are recovering
nicely. We finally got some moisture. We really needed
the rain/snow. Taking off for Missoula later next

Hi, Janille, my name's Ray. What is your interest
in this club? I am AB and became involved in these

I just have to say how beautiful lushiebabe (Laura) is. I hope you find some one
who will love you for who you are and not just your beauty. Thanks again for
sharing your beautiful photo.
Either not many people are in the chat room or I
just check in at the wrong times. Haven't found anyone
for quite some time. Friday night is the regular chat
night for all the old timers but I haven't seen them in
for a long while too. Haven't seen any posts from
them either. Guess people come and go. Thanks for
joining for looks like we need to get more people so we
can keep an active bunch..This is one of those ho hum
days...Anxious for the holiday week end and some outdoor
cooking. Raining here now but my hubby can dodge the drops
and cook out anyway..lol Dorla
hi firesyne,<br

but she'll clarify later if I'm wrong) and she's
pretty upset. She just wanted you to be kept up to
date... she will post here as soon as she can.<br
This sounds better than taking part of the colon
and constructing a new bladder ( or part of one) like
they were going to do with me. That is if my Pulmonary
doctor would have approved the surgery..Thank Heaven he
didn't and eventually the real cause was found. Then he
had to approve the surgery..Not much of a choice
left. But I'm the better for it....It was a very
interesting site and informative for the part that was
particular to my needs... Thanks Stygian Lady..Dorla
Fun Staff Meeting
The boss of a Madison Avenue advertising agency called a spontaneous staff meeting in the middle of a particularly stressful week. When everyone gathered, the boss, who understood the benefits of having fun, told the burnt out staff the purpose of the meeting was to have a quick contest.
The theme was Viagra advertising slogans. The only rule was that they had to use past ad slogans, originally written for other products, that captured the essence of Viagra. Slight variations were acceptable. About seven minutes later, they turned in their suggestions and created a Top Ten List.
With all the laughter and camaraderie, the rest of the week went very well for everyone.
The top ten were:
10. Viagra, Whaazzzz up!
9. Viagra, The quicker pecker upper.
8. Viagra, Like a rock!
7. Viagra, When it absolutely, positively has to be there overnight.
6. Viagra, Be all that you can be.
5. Viagra, Reach out and touch someone.
4. Viagra, Strong enough for a man, but made for a woman.
3. Viagra, home of the whopper!
2. Viagra, We bring good things to Life!
And the unanimous number one slogan:
1. This is your penis. This is your penis on drugs.

I wish I knew more about puters but I am
constantly working with mine to fix something I've messed up

was the one that did the trick.. Dorla
NAIROBI (AFP) - A baby hippopotamus that survived the tsunami waves on the Kenyan coast has formed a strong bond with a giant male century-old tortoise, in an animal facility in the port city of Mombassa, officials said.
The hippopotamus, nicknamed Owen and weighing about 300 kilograms (650 pounds), was swept down Sabaki River into the Indian Ocean, then forced back to shore when tsunami waves struck the Kenyan coast on December 26, before wildlife rangers rescued him.
"It is incredible. A-less-than-a-year-old hippo has adopted a male tortoise, about a century old, and the tortoise seems to be very happy with being a 'mother'," ecologist Paula Kahumbu, who is in charge of Lafarge Park, told AFP.
"After it was swept and lost its mother, the hippo was traumatized. It had to look for something to be a surrogate mother. Fortunately, it landed on the tortoise and established a strong bond. They swim, eat and sleep together," the ecologist added.
"The hippo follows the tortoise exactly the way it follows its mother. If somebody approaches the tortoise, the hippo becomes aggressive, as if protecting its biological mother," Kahumbu added.
"The hippo is a young baby, he was left at a very tender age and by nature, hippos are social animals that like to stay with their mothers for four years," he explained.

No problem. At least I now know how to use chat.
You think after 7 years on the net (I got my first
account in 1993) I'd have learned that by now but had
never been in a chat room.<br
Just wanted to take the time to wish all the mothers in this club a very happy
day. Life is sure a whole lot better with a great mother.
Roy,
I take a lot of vitamins. I take Garlic pills, Acidolphilus (which is also a natural antibiotic that is also in yogurt) Vitamin B is really good, Cranberry pills, Vitamin C. When I think I'm heading for a possible UTI I drink lots of cranberry juice, and I eat lots of berries (exspecially blue berries) and it seems to clear me right up. Try to stay away from pop and too much sugar.

THIS IS FUNNY. OPEN ATTCH.
SAW
The Englishman's wife steps up to the tee and, as she bends over to place her ball, a gust of wind blows her skirt up and reveals her lack of underwear."Good God, woman! Why aren't you wearing any knickers?" her husband demanded."Well, you don't give me enough housekeeping money to afford any."The Englishman immediately reaches into his pocket and says, "For the sake of decency, here's 50. Go and buy yourself some underwear."
Next, the Irishman's wife bends over to set her ball on the tee. Her skirt also blows up to show that she is wearing no undies. "Blessed Virgin Mary,woman! You've no knickers. Why not?" She replies, "I can't afford any on the money you give me." He reaches into his pocket and says, "For the sake of decency, here's 20. Go and buy yourself some underwear!"
Lastly, the Scotsman's wife bends over. The wind also takes her skirt over her head to reveal that she, too, is naked under it. "Sweet mudder of Jaysus Aggie! Where t he frig are yer drawers?" She too explains, "You dinna give me enough money ta be able ta affarrd any." The Scotsman reaches into his pocket and says, "Well, fer the love 'o Jaysus 'n the sake of decency, here's a comb. Tidy yerself up a bit."

you come up against a wall, but after a while you
remember how to get there from there...<br
with you as always--hoping for the best...Betty
For 10 yrs I have been transferred with a "quad
pivot", one on one <br
myself,C3 quad, 6'1" about 185 lbs. My <br
now says that OSHA has mandated new rules about how
<br
They told now a <br
we store one in a small house or if <br
safe.
I haven't received anything from this group in several months so I was just wondering if I may have been removed from the group accidentally or what the situation was. I checked my groups and only one of my groups came up.

recently something happened to me and i was wondering
if anyone else ever had the same experiance. a few
weeks ago i was cathing my self and it bent up inside
of me. the next day i woke up, cathed again, and
started to bleed. i started to get short of breath and
really dizzy. i had to take an ambulance to the E.R.
the doc there put me on antibiotics and everything was
o.k. Or so i thought. the whole next week i was still
gasping for breath, dizzy, and had really bad chest
pains. I immediatly quit smoking to say the least! i
also went and had several tests done. i had a sonogram
of my heart, nothing was found. i had a cat scan, and
still nothing, the wanted to do an MRI but i have 2
bullets in me so that was not an option. i still get
these "attacks" with no obvious provocation. it just
comes on me. i get tingly, then it gets hard to
breath, i get dizzy and i have to stop whatever i am
doing just to try to control my breathing. it lasts
for @ half an hour, then its gone. has this ever
happened to anyone else? anyone have suggestions on
what it could be? withdrawls from not smoking anymore?
any input would help, thankyou

I rehabed with in Shepherd Center in Atlanta. I was

chatting with you. Thanks walker66_2000
True, some of Scott's jokes are lame, and some are
funny. But I have to applaud Scott for doing what he
can to keep this group together which is more than can
be said for those were just sit there (pun intended)
and complain about it.
I would rather read a lame joke than read about
someone complaining that the sun is too bright, the
temperature too perfect, or life too pleasant.

About 7 yrs ago some nice person started this group to have folks
be
able to talk & learn about spinal cord injures.. Some where along the
line & for some reason that person walked away from the group just
leaving it hang with no monitor in place. Then along comes Scott who
pretty much by himself has done his best to completely ruin the group
with his stupid jokes.. Scott, you really would do everyone a favor
if
you just re-named the group " Scott's stupid jokes " & then others
wouldn't join thinking this was actually a spinal-cord group. I'm
another one sick to death of certain people in here, so I'm out of
here
as well.. Jim....
Hi Cyndi,<br
since 1972. Just out of curiousity have a been in a chair the longest our of
this group? <br
I think a granny joke is fitting today, don't you :-)
Speeding granny
Emma was a little old lady in a nursing home who would spend the days speeding through the hallways in her wheel chair. Every so often one of the orderlies would say "Emma, pull over your speeding again. I need to see your drivers license." Emma would pull over, dig around in her pocket, pull out a gum wrapper or other piece of paper and hand it over. The they would tell her "Slow down" With a giggle she would be on her way careening down the halls. She came squealing around the corner only to find old Joe standing in his doorway with no pants on. Emma pulled over to the side wailing "Oh no, not the breathalyzer again!"
im sharon a quad since june 95 welcome
Thats a good question. For me, my husband and I still have great romance. There is still so much that we can do together. We go on dates. He holds my hand in the mall or store. We ride bikes together, go kayaking, go fishing, go to the theater. We go on trips together. Communication is very helpful and our faith in God.

Okay group, todays tough question is this : How'd you preserve your relationship or marriage after your sci?
For instance, a walk along the beach is a bit of a reach so what do you have for a substitute? Or, it seems to get adjusted to this world, there's a bunch of time spent on self be it learning or rehab etc. How'd you put great time in with your significant other? How'd you get over the obstacle of the lack of mobility?
A guy falls asleep on the beach for several hours and gets a horrible sunburn.
He goes to the hospital and is promptly admitted after being diagnosed with second degree burns.
With his skin already starting to blister and seeing the severe pain he is in, the doctor goes ahead and prescribes continuous intravenous feeding with saline, electrolytes, a sedative, and a Viagra pill every four hours.
The nurse, who is rather astounded, asks, "What good will Viagra do him, Doctor?
"It'll keep the sheets off his legs."
THIS IS GREAT!!!! IT BETTER WORK DAMN IT!!!

Welcome Cyndi. I'm 33, a quad, and going on 10 years this July.
Joke of the Day
SInce Hockey is comming back soon, here's one for the Fans
A Kindergarten teacher tells her class she's a BIG Flames fan.
She's really excited about it and asks the kids if they're Flames fans too.
Everyone wants to impress the teacher and says they're Flames fans too, except ONE kid, ...named Wayne
the teacher looks at Wayne and says, "Wayne, you're not a Flames fan?"
He says, "Nope, I'm a Oiler fan!" She says, "Well why are you a Oiler fan and not a Flames fan?"
Wayne says, "Well, my mom is a Oiler fan, and my dad is a Oiler fan, so I'm a Oiler fan."
The teacher's not real happy. She's a little hot under the collar. She says, "Well, if your moms an idiot, and your dads a moron, then what would you be?!"
Wayne says, "Then I'd be a Flames fan!"
Hello Everyone,<br
been in a chair for 13 years this august.
HOW DO YOU DECIDE WHO TO MARRY? (written by kids)
(1) You got to find somebody who likes the same stuff.
Like, if you like sports, she should like it that you like sports, and
she should keep the chips and dip coming.
-- Alan, age 10
(2) No person really decides before they grow up who they're going to
marry. God decides it all way before, and you get to find out later who
you're stuck with.
-- Kristen, age 10
WHAT IS THE RIGHT AGE TO GET MARRIED?
(1) Twenty-three is the best age because you know the person FOREVER by
then.
-- Camille, age 10
(2) No age is good to get married at. You got to be a fool to get
married.
-- Freddie, age 6 (very wise for his age)
HOW CAN A STRANGER TELL IF TWO PEOPLE ARE MARRIED?
(1) You might have to guess, based on whether they seem to be yelling at
the same kids.
-- Derrick, age 8
WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR MOM AND DAD HAVE IN COMMON?
(1) Both don't want any more kids.
-- Lori, age 8
WHAT DO MOST PEOPLE DO ON A DATE?
(1) Dates are for having fun, and people should use them to get to know
each other. Even boys have something to say if you listen long enough.
-- Lynnette, age 8 (isn't she a treasure)
(2) On the first date, they just tell each other lies and that Usually
gets them interested enough to go for a second date.
-- Martin, age 10
WHAT WOULD YOU DO ON A FIRST DATE THAT WAS TURNING SOUR?
(1) I'd run home and play dead. The next day I would call all the
newspapers and make sure they wrote about me in all the dead columns.
-- Craig, age 9
WHEN IS IT OKAY TO KISS SOMEONE?
(9) When they're rich.
-- Pam, age 7
(2) The law says you have to be eighteen, so I wouldn't want to mess
with that.
- - Curt, age 7
(3 ) The rule goes like this: If you kiss someone, then you should marry
them and have kids with them. It's the right thing to do.
-- Howard, age 8
IS IT BETTER TO BE SINGLE OR MARRIED?
(1 ) I don't know which is better, but I'll tell you one thing. I'm
never going to have sex with my wife. I don't want to be all grossed
out.
-- Theodore, age 8
(2 ) It's better for girls to be single but not for boys. Boys need
someone to clean up after them.
-- Anita, age 9 (bless you child)
HOW WOULD THE WORLD BE DIFFERENT IF PEOPLE DIDN'T GET MARRIED?
(1 ) There sure would be a lot of kids to explain, wouldn't there?
-- Kelvin, age 8
And the #1 Favorite is........
HOW WOULD YOU MAKE A MARRIAGE WORK?
(1 ) Tell your wife that she looks pretty, even if she looks like a
truck.
-- Ricky, age 10
I'm sorry about your dad ...I know he has been dealing with lots of hardships
and I've included you both in my prayers.<br
all the best Donna.
A man was in a terrible accident, and his "manhood" was mangled
and torn from his body. His doctor assured him that modern medicine could give him back his manhood, but that his insurance wouldn't cover the surgery, since it was considered cosmetic. The doctor said the cost would be $3,500 for "small, $6,500 for "medium, $14,000 for "large."
The man was sure he would want a medium or large, but the doctor urged
him to talk it over with his wife before he made any decision.
The man called his wife on the phone and explained their options.
The doctor came back into the room, and found the man looking dejected. "
Well, what have the two of you decided?" asked the doctor.
The man answered, "She'd rather remodel the kitchen".
My father was hospitalized again on the 18th, was
released on the 21st and back in on the 25th. He remains
in critical care at this time, it is a long story
which I won't get into, but we have been told he might
not pull through this time. We are praying that if it
is his time, that he has a peaceful passing, he has
suffered long enough. When I am able I will return to the
club, it has meant a lot to me, everyone take
care.<br
My prayers are with you and yours. I hope things get better soon. <br
care<br

A very sad event occurred last night: the Energizer Bunny, after going and going for so long has unfortunately passed away.
The official medical report states that Mr. Bunny died from a Heart Attack brought on by sexual over stimulation.
It seems that someone had put his batteries in backwards and he kept coming...and coming...and coming......

I live about 12 miles from the Mississippi and
about 2 miles from where the Cedar River joines the
Iowa River. Our small town is up on the river bluff so
the flood from the rivers didn't affect us. What did
happen though was the ground was so saturated that
basements were flooded in our town. We are lucky we didn't
have a basement. A town about 7 miles North of us is
far from the rivers but had water standing over two
feet deep. They use sand points for water and so all
their water supply was polluted as they don't have a
sewer system either. It was a strange year. We did
start to get water standing in the low part of our yard
and began to wonder if this part of Iowa was going to
have a flood like Noah's. I still don't understand the
water comming up from the ground like it did. Think I
posted in the Farmers Club about it too. Like they
say.."You're never satisified. It's either to wet or to dry!!
This year we have been to dry. Dorla
what men would do if they had a vagina for a day
10. Immediately go shopping for zucchini and cucumbers.
9. Squat over a hand-held mirror for an hour and a half.
8. See if they could finally do the splits.
7. See if it's truly possible to launch a ping pong ball 20 feet.
6. Cross their legs without rearranging their crotch.
5. Get picked up in a bar in less than 10 minutes ... BEFORE closing time.
4. Have consecutive multiple orgasms and still be ready for more without sleeping first.
3. Go to the gynecologist for a pelvic exam and ask to have it recorded on video.
2. Sit on the edge of the bed and pray for breasts too.
1. Finally find that damned G-spot.
Why Sailboats are better then women... (Part 2)
Sailboats never need another pair of shoes.
Sailboats don't care if you choose to spend the night with another woman.
Sailboats don't give you the cold shoulder after you have not called or visited for a while.
Sailboats always leave it to you to decide if you want to go out in foul weather.
Sailboats never complain that you don't talk to them.
You never have to bring a sailboat gifts of flowers, chocolates or jewelry.
You don't need to romance your sailboat before she'll let you spend the night.
Sailboats never get pregnant.
Sailboats never get PMS.
Well a little late on Easter wishes,but better
late than never,so Happy Easter a day late.<br

A young couple are on their way to Las Vegas to get married.
Before getting there, the girl said to the guy that she had a confession to make. The reason that they had not been intimate was because she was very flat-chested. If he wished to cancel the wedding, it would be okay with her.
The guy thought about it for a while and said he did not mind if she was flat, and sex is not the most important thing in a marriage.
Several miles down the road, the guy turned to the girl and said that he also wanted to make a confession. He said that below his waist he was just like a baby, and if the girl wished to cancel tile wedding, it'd be fine by him.
The girl thought about it for a while and said that she did not mind and she also believed there were other things far more important in a marriage than sex. Both were happy that they'd been honest with each other.
They went on to Vegas and got married. On the wedding night the girl took off her clothes and she was as flat as a washboard. Finally, the guy took off his clothes and one look at the guy's naked body made the girl faint and fall to the floor.
After she came to, the guy asked, 'I told you before we got married, why did you still faint?'
The girl said, 'You told me it was just like a baby.'
The guy replied, 'Yes, eight pounds and 21 inches.'
Well, hope everyone had a great easter. We just
got back today from our vacation. Took Chuck to
Disney World. Wore him right out. He says he has muscles
he didn't know he had. Did a lot of wheelin around
the last week. It was very good for him. Sea World is
great and very accessible, Disney is too and people
were happy to help with anything. I highly recommend
it. Hotels weren't too bad. Had to move from the one
we originally were at. Their idea of ADA and mine
were two different things. Second one was better. A
bit small in the bathroom but a darn site
better.<br
I sure hope some of you guys will make it. I am
sorry I have been missing in here lately. I want to
welcome all the new members. Hope to get to know more
about you all.<br
me your address and will get it out to you. Hope it
is ok. Was a bit disappointed in the shop though.
Thought it would be bigger. They must have more than one.
We found another one but it was in Kissimee and was
sure you wanted Orlando. Plus it was
closed..LOL<br
the benefit of the slanted wheels? Chuck was asking
and I had no idea. Also did anyone watch that soap
with the Parastep? I did and it didn't look bad at
