Your an amazing person, everytime you post something in you're group i get excited to read about it.

Got my vote

I would love for you to join my group:

You qualify since your 1st set went live in 2004.

Family oriented old people of the world unite!

very very cool!

As I child of the 70's I've always wanted a BatMobile. That may also explain my love of the Rutan Long-EZ. It definitely looks like something Batman would fly.

Maybe I can talk my friend into letting me get nekkid with the car one more time.



I doubt that will be a problem.

I just saw the photo of you next to the car.

Nice mustang shot!

It's not that easy to patent inventions my dear unless you work for a large company hired for such a skill. You can figure it will cost about 3500.00 USD in just legal fees to just patent something. The cost is so the lawyers can search through all the worldwide patenets to be sure your idea has not already been patent.

Then once this part is complete you have 6-12 months to provide the final drawns to exact spec of what your invention is. Then once you have gotten this far, all you really hope is the pantent gets sold before production. (probably how your dad made his cash). If you do go to production and do not have some big time backing, a larger company can come along produce the same product at half the cost, only require the alternation to be about 15% different per the laws and then BAM your out of biz.

I only know this because I came up with a really hot idea and a friend of mine has pantents so he educated me on the whole process. I just decide way to difficult to pursue.

Good luck for U

A lot of people like complication for its own sake, regardless of what their specific interests may be. I can't really understand the need for 20 pillows on a bed, but neither can I understand the need for a fancy graphical display and complicated menu system on a car stereo. I like my complicated machines to actually provide something useful for me and even then, it's no fun dealing with a poorly designed system. The saving grace for pillows is they generally don't require an owner's manual.

I love what they have done in regard to the new car stereos especially compact design and sound
quality but I hate all the little buttons that ya can't see myself, it is dangerous! And you would think
that with all of this new technology today and new laws about using cell phones etc. that the
industry would work on including voice recognition as a standard feature instead of remotes etc....


By the way I love pillows, have a stack of my own 2 of which are those jumbo sized suckers...and
I have always loved dressing up my girls for a night out.

Who knows....

Try the midwest, happily we still seem to have more than most.

Almost sounds like allergies on top of the creeping death. Hope you start feeling better soon.

Here is some stuff I found.. I'm sure you already know this stuff but what the heck...

Stretching
Always stretch after classes and performances. It also is good to stretch during class between exercises. Here are three leg stretches that I find are good to do between exercises (especially after a lot of releve):

Calf Stretch
purpose: To stretch the Achilles Tendon, calf muscle, and back of the leg (hamstring) and to prevent strain.
position: Stand at arm's length from the barre with the body inclined forward. Extend the leg to be stretched backward with the foot flat on the floor, toes pointing straight ahead. The front leg should be bent and the back leg straight.

execution: 1) Allow the body to fall forward slowly, keeping the foot flat at all times. To stretch the soleus muscle, slide back foot in slightly, bend both knees and allow the body to fall forward. 2) Hold for a few seconds and repeat on each leg.

Hamstring Stretch
purpose: To stretch the hamstring muscle group and the upper attachment ot of the calf muscle.
position: 1) Assume the long sitting position (sitting with legs extended out in front of you), bend forward from the waist and reach as far forward as possible with your hands. 2) First, stretch with your toes pointed (plantar flexion), placing emphasis on the hamstring muscle group. Then, with the foot pulled back as far as possible (dorsiflexion), emphasize stretching the upper attatchment of the calf muscle. Remember to stretch only to the point of mild discomfort. This should not hurt. 3) Hold for about thirty seconds, then repeat two or three times.
variation: Stretch as above but progressively widen the distance between your legs.

Stork Stretch
purpose: To stretch the quadriceps muscle group, specifically the rectus femoris muscle, which, besides helping to extend the lower leg, acts as a hip flexor, and the iliopsoas muscle, a primary hip flexor; also assists in remediation of lumbar lordosis.
position: Standing in good postural alignment, bend your lower leg and grasp your ankle with the hand on the same side, the other hand resting on the barre.
execution: Keeping your thigh in the same alignment as your supporting leg, pull the heel of your foot toward the buttocks and then pull your upper leg backward as far as (comfortably) possible without overly arching your lower back.
CAUTION: To avoid placing stress on the lower back, the body must always be maintained in good alignment without arching the lower back.

Some things to remember:

* Never stretch a cold muscle--make sure you are properly warmed up before trying to stretch.
* Don't put weight on the leg you are stretching.
* Don't stretch those knee ligaments. Don't stretch those knee tendons. Stretch the thigh muscles only.
* Deadly position for your knees: Sitting with your rump flat on the floor, legs bent at the knees and inverted (the thighs are rotated inward 90 degrees to that the inside of the thigh, knee and ankle are resting on the ground). Don't sit like this! It is terrible for your knees, even if it is comfortable. It stretches knee ligaments and tendons, which is exactly what you don't want to do.
* Remember that form is crucial when stretching. You can go from flexibility to injury simply by arching your back. Stay focused while stretching.
