My worst sunburn ever was on my first trip to Hawaii. We were backpacking on Maui and hiking all over the island. I got so fried the first day out that it was too painful to even slip into my sleeping bag that night, and the next day I was having to take long breaks whenever there was shade. I couldn't bear the feel of the sun on my skin. The skin on my thighs actually had a bluish color it was so bad. I think I ended up with the best tan I ever had when I got back, but it was sure miserable for a few of days.

Wait a minute. Let me see if I have this right. They were GUESTS in OUR country by OUR goodwill. They send us people who make war on us. We get cautious, although still not as restrictive as just about any other country in the world. Our airport security people are humiliating and traumatizing American citizens beyond belief or reason while Arabs stroll right on through because God forbid we should be accused of racial profiling. We are getting new threats all the time. We take some measures to try and protect and defend ourselves against the known perpetrators and they have the audacity to sue US??????

They won't release her name, only that she is older than 65 and lives in central Waco. I doubt any of us know her.

Great news on the kittie front. Got meds for my MeanEars - on the road to recovery and thanks for your encouragement to hie myself to the doc. ;-)

[Mo1]

Yep I've had that kind of sunburn ... but I don't keep a tan

[ValerieUSA]

Good news about Missy.

Yoda is favoring a front paw today -- totally pitiful. I think it is starting to swell. He gets infections in his legs so easily and always needs a vet visit and antibiotics to get well.

Garrett sees a podiatrist for his ingrown toenails this afternoon. The family doctor referred him - said he wouldn't treat them any more, he needs a specialist.

[ValerieUSA]

You, too? I read in another thread a week or so ago that another freeper's father was diagnosed with 'MeanEars' too. Hope the meds help you out.

[lodwick]

Thanks Valerie - luckily mine are not MeanEnough that some stout anti-biotics won't whack the infection. I hope.

[Mo1]

Yep .. that about sums it up

Erase from your minds the vision of Jamie Lee Curtis' toned body dancing around in bra and panties from the 1994 film "True Lies." She says it's all a myth.
In fact, the 43-year-old actress is posing for the September issue of More magazine in a sports bra and tight spandex briefs sans makeup, styled hair or flattering light and angles. And definitely no airbrushing. All just to show what she really looks like.

"I don't have great thighs," she tells More. "I have very big breasts and a soft, fatty little tummy. And I've got back fat. People assume I'm walking around in little spaghetti-strap dresses. It's the insidious Glam Jamie Jamie, the Perfect Jamie, the great figure, blah, blah, blah. And I don't want the unsuspecting 40-year-old women of the world to think that I've got it going on. It's such a fraud. And I'm the one perpetuating it."

She also admits her body didn't come naturally.

"I've had a little plastic surgery. I've had a little lipo. I've had a little Botox. And you know what? None of it works. None of it."

Calling all Pauls to get in line:

Paul Simon, 60, will receive a Kennedy Center Honor in place of Paul McCartney, who bowed out of this year's Dec. 8 ceremony, it was announced Monday. Simon was set to receive the honor in a future ceremony; McCartney, who will receive his award next year instead, had to withdraw because of an unspecified personal obligation.
