I'll remember that next time I come down with a migraine at work, or whilst driving, or rollerblading, or sitting on a friend's couch.

Physiology & Medicine / Re: Dyslexic Typing: why do I sometimes mistype words?
« on: 26/09/2005 22:33:22 »
I know that I do not exactly suffer from dyslexia but I do suffer from trying to write/type too quickly for my abilities. I believe very much in PEBKAC. Tiredness will always affect one's abilities, as will stress. The other undeniable factor is aging. One's mind, and the reactions of one's body to it, inevitably slow down gradually. Nothing to be done except to constantly exercise it in order to slow the process...
Well that and concentrating on the job at hand. No gentleman types particularly well when dreaming of uncorseted ladies on satin sheets.[:p]
NB Those editions you noticed at the bottom of the page were indeed a series of typographical errors. Yes, it took two attempts to find them all...damn those ladies and their satin sheets.

Those white things in your head are called teeth. I'm sure they're there for a reason. ;p

Your researchers were not very thorough. There are two places inside the vagina which can cause orgasm, and clitoral stimulation is not always necessary. Of course, the sensitivity of these places depends on the individual, and her psychological state as well. There are women who can orgasm without touch, how would your researchers explain this phenomenon?

Complementary Medicine / Re: Does warm milk really make you...zzzzzz...sleep ?
« on: 26/09/2005 06:34:24 »
Come on, Neil, you have warm milk on tap at home. You're telling us you don't know if it works?
*slaps face* Sorry, I'll be serious now.
Warm milk has never worked for me any better than any other non caffienated warm drink. I think it is the act of sitting down and getting comfortable and warm which does the trick. The drink is just an aid. Perhaps psychological? A throw back to early childhood comforts?
ukmicky, you need to get some life experience before you throw those comments around. Many breast feeding women find a partner's attentions particularly enjoyable, and some find breast feeding in itself to be mildly stimulating. Breast milk definitely does not taste like cow's milk. It is not as creamy and it is sweet. It is loaded with nutrients specifically tailored to a baby's needs, constantly changing with the individual.

Ultima, you might like to try that again, except this time allow for the fact that I have no education and haven't the faintest clue what you're on about.[

I was brought up to believe that ethics were personal choices and standards, but morals were ca collective version, heavily overwritten by years of religious indoctrination.
I understand that humanity needs moral codes because of our inherrantly warlike nature, and herd instinct. I do not think, however, that morals created thousands of years ago can possibly have current relevance.
Obviously I need to get out a dictionary and read the real definitions, doh.
Does one of those links include a test? You have made me curiouser and curiouser.

I have no problem with this thread turning political, or anybody blowing off steam, but they could at least have waited until they knew where to point the finger.
When the bombs go off, who cares what the motivation is, just try to heal the people first. How many English moslems cringe every time this happens because they think they'll be spat apon when they walk the streets? Was it them?
All i'm suggesting is to save the roasting for those who truly deserve it, and in the mean time, help those who need it.
Tell me something? Something like this happens and there are two kneejerk reactions.
a]People race out and insult the nearest group they think might have been involved.
b] People race out to help the victems and families, and to repair the infastructure.
All of this is seen on world television, all of it is broadcast on radio, and all of it is judged.
Which of these is going to create instability and fear, and which is going to bring help and support from watching countries?
Having said all of this, I must say that there was a lot of admiration in Oz for the way things were handled on a national level, they had b] down pat.
There is another issue, too. Don't ever think i say turn the other cheek. I say find them, and find them fast. Just don't make a bloody, public specticle of their deaths.

You forgot to mention the most important one. Was it accurate?
Thanks Ultima, it does work much better when reciprocated.

In all seriousness, there is only one example i can think of...us. Everything else evolved just fine till we came along and trashed it all.
Perhaps it wasn't so much a case of being in a hurry; perhaps your God just got too smart for his own good.

Settle, my friend, and allow me to dampen your charming enthusiasm.
While they look beautiful, they are wet, they have appaling fish breath, and carry poisoned spines on the rear feet.
That said, they are also shy but playful, and wonderful to watch.

Physiology & Medicine / Re: Pavlov??? can i make you like something?
« on: 18/07/2005 11:45:03 »
Oh dear, with a sig like that? My guess is that you, in particular, have no hope. You are intent on winning the game and you can see an easy double on your last colour,leaving a clear view of the black. It should be game over but it's your partner's shot. They set the colour over a pocket instead of taking the double, and they've done it before. You just can't understandwhy they won't take the double; why they don't have the confidence to try. I know why. You ask them to practise the shot because you want to win the game, not because you want to see their pleasure in it. I am not suggesting that you are a nasty person, or an evil one; just that you are possibly a little arrogant? "I can do this, and enjoy it, so why can't they?"
Attitude is everything.
I too play with my left hand, but I understand that others cannot or simply may not wish to. I may not win every game, but I walk away with a smile, because I know my friends enjoyed it.

Looks cool? To another smoker, perhaps; it is a sign that you might have a smoker's hope in hell of picking up.
Urgh, nothing worse, in my book.
As for smoking green tea? Perhaps talk to somebody in eastern medicine. If anybody's tried it and found it to be harmless, it will be them.
