Five-disc player has two U2s, an Etta James and two Buddy Guys.

RE: - Another one who hates being breathed on - Audible chewing noises at the table repulse me, as does soup-slurping - Spitting - on the ballfield, on the sidewalk, anywhere. If it's done in my vicinity, I gag.

Creepy - Lisa Marie, with her lines around her eyes, looks older than her mother. Priscilla looks like a Chucky doll - immovable plastic cheeks, plump plastic lips, round too-open eyes...

I got mine pierced at 39 (I'm 41 now). My stomach was flatter then, but I've never had washboard abs. I wear subtle jewelry in it and it only peeks out if my shirt rides up or when I'm on the beach. I love it. If you want it, get it!!! Allison

This has just come up between me and DH - he's Scottish and would like to move back to Glasgow in the next 3-5 years. I'm not sure how serious he is about that - he has his own business, what work would we do over there, etc. If it had come up ten years ago, I'd say yes...but my parents are...

Autumn, mine is Lynne too but with an "e" on the end - it was my maternal great-grandmother's name. And Autumn is a beautiful name. Allison

Glad it all worked out with your dentist. ALASKA!!! - one of my dream vacation spots, if I can just convince DH. Have a wonderful time!

Hi Jes, I'd be leery of the belts because they're artifically propping you up - using a band of leather to do what your body should try to do itself (keeping abs engaged and pulled in, tucking tailbone under slightly to avoid arching the lower back). I cringe every time I see a guy at the...

Pinky, one quick idea - maybe you want to have your husband spot you the first time you try flyes with the 25s.

Another one who heard about Cathe through Collage. I had been doing home step tapes (Gin Miller's Reebok series and a little pre-GT Firm) and wanted more advanced cardio. I bought a two-pack of Max Intensity Cardio and Max Intensity Strength. MIC laid me out - that workout still kicks my butt...

Welcome to the club! I had mine pierced last spring and was surprised that it didn't hurt more - one good pinch and that was it. I did my aftercare religiously - two soapings per day with Provon soap - plus a few sea-salt soakings the first week when it was tender. I healed fully in 7-8...

To me, Bocas taste more like meat - if you've given up meat and miss the taste, Bocas are a good replacement. Gardenburgers taste more like veggie patties - you can see the rice and bits of veggies, and no way are you going to mistake it for a meat substitute.

Another NYC gal - prices are insane here. We own a two bedroom, two bath co-op apartment, approximately 1200 square feet. We paid $425K in 1999 and it was just appraised at $755K. The market is so hot right now, we could probably sell for close to $800K. The problem would be buying again -...

Right now I'm reading James Ellroy's "American Tabloid." Waiting in the wings are - "The Perfectionist: Life and Death in Haute Cuisine" (about the three-star Michelin chef who committed suicide in 2003) "River Town: Two Years on the Yangtze" for my book club meeting next week And...

Another stress eater here. I can't eat if I'm angry, but if depressed, lonely, sad...lemme at it. A while ago when DH and I were having some problems, he'd call to let me know he was on the way home from work, and when he'd hang up I'd head straight for the refrigerator. I didn't realize the...

Oh goodness, school gym classes... Up until about 5th or 6th grade we played a lot in gym. Then come junior high it was all about sports and competition and teams - it seemed like everything we did was team vs. team, or it was timed or measured. Our gym teachers didn't spend much time...

!?!" Hey Charlotte, My sister has an English bulldog Zippy and he snores sooooo loudly it's comical. Even when he just dozes off for a second, he snores. One time she took him to visit my parents, who have a bearded collie Alex. The two dogs were set up in the kitchen to sleep that...

RE: I have to go back and see what he says about ideal weight...no doubt it'll be way lower than what I think my ideal is. Ah well... **Edited to add: OK, at 5'7 he wants me at 123 pounds - ain't gonna happen. That'd put me at 13% bodyfat, which is way low.** As to the book: I like it...

I love classic literature, so my best read would be "War and Peace". Close second is Edith Wharton's "Age of Innocence".

Hee hee - how did I KNOW this thread would be about Pepperidge Farm cookies? I don't often buy them because I will eat a WHOLE bag of those soft-baked oatmeal raisin ones...mmm......
