26794. arkymalarky - 2/15/2012 2:46:47 AM Happy anniversary Judith and Keoni! 26795. vonKreedon - 2/16/2012 6:31:20 PM Going through the mail last night and suddenly had my heart in my mouth when one of the mails addressed to Reid was from the Selective Service. Apparently his taking, or perhaps just applying for, student aid requires him to register for the draft. Reid and I, after an initial bought of, "Wait, was that in the loan contract? WTF?" Decided that it's worth going ahead and registering since there is no draft at this time and we can deal with an actual draft if that occurs. Then Blair came home and declared that she would investigate if this is really as iron clad a requirement as the SSS letter claimed. 26796. vonKreedon - 2/16/2012 7:00:30 PM And on further review I find that I am mistaken in my belief that the SSS registration requirement for all 18 year old males was repealed years ago. Reid is required to register because he's 18, not because he applied for student aid; they noticed he hasn't registered because he applied for student aid. 26797. iiibbb - 2/17/2012 2:37:08 PM Several of my female friends have applied just so they could get the rejection letter because they're female. 26798. iiibbb - 2/17/2012 2:38:51 PM Get the card laminated, and don't lose it. You have to show it for a lot of state and federal jobs.
It is an acceptable ID for a lot of those places you need a half doesn't proofs of ID for. 26799. vonKreedon - 2/17/2012 6:45:11 PM If he gets it laminated it's going to make it much harder to later burn on the Pentagon steps. 26800. judithathome - 2/17/2012 8:05:27 PM Har!!!!! 26801. iiibbb - 2/18/2012 4:06:39 AM You don't know how to burn stuff... 26802. iiibbb - 2/18/2012 3:21:59 PM 
I never got this. I am so left-handed it isn't funny, but I am everything on the left-side in spades.
Can any psychology people explain why the brain's expression of these traits are not a cis/trans thing rather than right/left.
26803. arkymalarky - 2/18/2012 6:54:08 PM Before I have a migraine I have visual auras on the opposite side. They're always on the left, headache always on the right since I was a teen. I'm left handed too. All that stuff confuses me no end. 26804. wabbit - 2/19/2012 4:42:50 PM I have a vague recollection of reading a recent report that says the left/right brain thing as far as personality traits goes is largely baloney. Wish I could remember where I saw that. I am right-handed, but I would fall smack dab in the middle of the descriptions in the ad - some, but not all, of each side. Just like most people, I suspect. 26805. thoughtful - 2/21/2012 3:42:27 PM Studies I've read on epileptics who have had the halves of their brain severed find that women are better able to perform left and right brain activities on either side than are men. Also that women tend to do both simultaneously more than men who tend to operate in one hemisphere at a time. But of course each person has both left and right to their personality and thought patterns. Love the ad though as it do expresses the difference. 26806. thoughtful - 2/21/2012 3:52:12 PM If you haven't seen it, Jill Bolte Taylor's powerful stroke of insight is a fabulous exploration of experiencing right-brained ness. 26807. Wombat - 2/21/2012 11:01:16 PM Wombette got into Quinnipiac University's BS-Doctoral Physical Therapy program! One more to hear from. She also--finally--passed her driver's license road test. 26808. vonKreedon - 2/21/2012 11:35:41 PM If Quinnipiac's Doctoral Physical Therapy program is BS why is she interested? [;-} 26809. Wombat - 2/22/2012 1:22:27 AM A-hahr-hahrdy-hahr-hahr! Four years for a Bachelor of Science + 3-4 years for a Doctorate in Physical Therapy, wise guy! 26810. PsychProf - 2/22/2012 3:28:24 PM hmmmm... 26811. PsychProf - 2/23/2012 2:57:27 PM For Wombat...

I saw that too. Pity Quinnipiac is so expensive... 26813. iiibbb - 2/24/2012 2:52:42 AM Oh my,
My inlaws are stressing me out. I spend the night at their house when I visit my new job.
My FiL has Altzheimers. My BiL is nearly useless. My MiL is at the end of her rope dealing with with FiL.
He doesn't think he lives in the house anymore. The Dr. says he can't drive, but wresting the car from him. He's angry a lot. After a whole day with him she's got not patience for him.
I have a cold... I can't deal right now.
