Funny how wine helps stop the spasm.

This surgery I just had the doc gave me oxycotin first time I ever took the stuff and it did keep me comfortable however I was on my feet most of the time so I would not have to get up and down to care for KV and my back really started acting up worst pain I have had in years and the oxycotin did not touch it. Nor has any other drug in the past. Excedrin is not bad. What I have found is wine and no not mixed with meds. is the only thing that gives me relief after the pool, stretching, resting ect.

I don't like any wine except Mondavi Chardonay any other wine or alchohol makes me sick.

I wonder about Rush taking Oxycotin for back pain. My back pain when at it's worse gets so bad that my legs just won't go at the end of the day. I have learned to adapt my lifestyle over the years and pace to control pain. The pool is wonderful for relief.

Scarborough is my new fave show.

The prison life shows on tonight were a little tough to watch but I think if flipping hamburgers or selling drugs illegally are my options I would flip burgers.

My childhood friend is doing time in Chowchilla for three strikes dealing drugs and she sent me a pic she took on the inside it struck me funny...it looked like a prom pic and her date was a beady eyed exotic hispanic hard looking woman with tons of make up and my childhood friend who is half Japenese and has been obese her whole life in matching purple shirts with this gal.

She is doing the end of three years. I pray that she will go straight some day she is addicted to the big bucks.

If she was straight she would make a great accountant as she kept her fathers books for his Mom/Pops store that he lost due to the drug trafficking. Sad but that is the choice she made. She has tried living a lawful lifestyle but can't stick with it. Funny thing about her being a drug dealer all these years she does not drink or even smoke pot and never uses the hard stuff that she sells.

I veared away from FR and was reading an Islamic website and they had prophets named with the Christian name next to the Islamic version in ( ).

The had a big thing on Mary and Jesus but called Jesus by another name.

Sounded like the Holy Bible with names changed I did not get into it to heavy should have bookmarked it though.

So does the Koran follow history and take a left turn at some point, kinda like the King James leaving out Books that the Catholic Bible has in it?

I know it can't be that simplistic.

The Muslims have many of the same event chronicled, as what's in the Bible.

One of their big holidays is Eid al Adha, in February :

"Eid al-Adha or Feast of Sacrifice is an important feast in the Muslim calendar. It concludes the Pilgrimage to Mecca.

Eid al-Adha lasts for three days and commemorates Ibraham's (Abraham) willingness to obey God by sacrificing his son. Muslims believe the son to be Ishmael rather than Isaac as told in the Old Testament. Ishmael is considered the forefather of the Arabs. According to the Koran, Ibrahim had a dream in which he was told to sacrifice his most valued possession, he sacrificed his favourite goat and his favourite sheep but the dream reoccurred. He realised the dream meant his son. His son said he must do as Allah commanded. He blind folded himself and sacrificed his son, a voice from heaven told him to look down and he realised he had sacrificed a ram instead. Allah told him it had been a test to see how much Ibrahim and Ishmael loved Allah.

The feast re-enacts Ibrahim's obedience by sacrificing a cow or ram. The family eats a third of the meal, a third is given to family and friends and the remaining third is given to the poor. There are prayers and sermons, mutual visiting of friends, lavish meals, and especially for children the giving of presents and the wearing of new clothes."

But weren't they disbanned. Unbelievable that the female out of the six was working as an intern for Scary Katz and had access to secret info.(it's late sorry for the lack of proper wording) what I mean is info that takes special security clearance. I believe she served two internships.
The one fellow was so good at keeping his jihad life secret the neighbors came out to protest his arrest. Hellllloooo they are suppose to be secretive.

Maybe like Scott Peterson who was looking for his wife in LA when he got rid of her body the opposite direction in Berkley the terrorists will indicate one area and try to terrorize in the oppisite direction. Evil minds must think alike.

I tell ya what. Should we all just "yawn" if some of you smart asses....

To use an old expression, "better to keep your mouth shut and thought of as a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt."

Yes, the ones that weren't too careful about hiding what they were up to. I feel there may be more sleepers in the Portland-metro area. With a terrorist-friendly mayor like Vera Katz in charge, they should have no trouble hauling a full-sized nuclear weapon into Pioneer Courthouse Square. If the Portland police even so much as stopped them to ask what they were doing there would be immediate cries of 'profiling' from the local alphabet channels.

Re-Read the Al-Zawarihi taped message......that is the key to them raising the terror level.

Whatever was in that tape was one of the factors that went into this decision by Bush and Ridge.
