LawTalkers - Welcome back E/O, leagl and Fringey: no one say the name "Penske" 3 times in a row

Condoms have a 100% success rate in your part of the world (which by the tenor of your posts* I take to be Smugville, Wrongland)?

*With one exception.

Since she knew about the primary one for almost a year (if not longer) and did not walk, that's where the true public pressure comes in.

By March, UNC is going to look like a real team. They made a lot of bone head plays. But MSU took a ton of really bad shots. They're supposed to know better.

But MSU is clearly the more polished team and pulled to within 6 without looking defeated after being down 19. That age and experience will do you guys well in the tourney.

The questions for UNC are: (1) Will Williams teach them how to play against a zone? And (2) Who will be the guy to have the ball in his hands at the end of the game come tourney time? As of now, neither of those questions can be answered.

I should probably push my doctor into doing the more extensive thyroid tests. My basic blood tests indicate it is in the normal range but my aunt (who is the in medical field) also tested normal and pretty much threw a fit in the doctor's office to get them to do further testing. After being on thyroid medication she had pretty much the same reaction as you. A cousin also tested normal at first but the further tests showed her thyroid was off.

I was just going to google this (or get Jack or tmdiva to do it) because my blood tests indicated normal range over the summer.

(Thyroid tests are the new black.)

Um, no, but the 90-whatever percent effectiveness of preventing pregnancy and whatever percentage of preventing STI (which seemed to be e/o's bigger issue as she is engaging in sexual activity regardless) are certainly competitive with the effectiveness of "monogamy."

Particularly when the "monogamous" partner is Dudley Moore.

No more identifying with those people in the Cymbalta ads. I feel about 10 years younger and have already lost 5 lbs. It's fucking awesome.

Anyway, if you're feeling totally bummed for no reason and have started to gain weight for no reason, get your thyroid checked.*

*I wouldn't have gotten mine checked if it were not for Jillian Michaels' relating her experience in her book, which prompted me.

I was diagnosed with thyroid disease more than 13 years ago. It was one of the more frutrating experiences of my life (because I knew that I wasn't right but it was harder to get the doctors to believe it).

Synthroid was heaven sent. It still is. Though I don't get the 10 years younger and 5 pounds lighter thing any more.

i would think if you get the chance to have vaginal intercourse you would want to spill your seed. If I was you I'd be worrying about how many more chances I'll have to pass on my genes.

Agree in part. In the reputable media, "male sports star is big time horn dog" doesn't even make the front section. This story had legs because it was about cutting a man living a charmed life down to size, but that was because it was about him getting beaten up by his wife. Once it turns into how much strange he's getting, most women and all men won't want to hear about it at all. But "Tiger chases tail" will be a tabloid meme for the rest of his career, because he is a celebrity, and that's all it takes to be in the tabloids for anything. No one should give a fuck who Jon Gosselin is nailing, but somebody is buying those magazines.

Stop taking it for 6 months and then see how you feel when you go back on it.
