Another observation - Having the tech turn a broken limb every which way to xray it to see if it's broken seems counterproductive.

My acupuncturist said I need to rest more and buy new shoes. My DSIL said that sounds like a contradiction.

Why is it that whenever I'm upstairs working, something I need to finish the job is downstairs?
Life is like a 10 speed bike, we all have gears we never use.

Whenever our cat Nina eats grass outside, she makes a pointed effort to puke it up INSIDE, usually heading straight for an area rug.
"My predominant feeling is one of gratitude. I have loved and been loved;I have been given much and I have given something in return...Above all, I have been a sentient being, a thinking animal, on this beautiful planet, and that in itself has been an enormous privilege and an adventure." O. Sacks

Whenever I'm working in the kitchen my little dog sits with her back to me and faces out.

Is a random q related to Tobin's q? Market valuations can indeed seem random. Originally Posted by crazycanuck

Cody does this while he's on our bed. He'll lay facing us for about 5 minutes, enough time to get his head scratched, and then do a 180 to face the door. We've discussed flipping the bed in the room so that the door is behind (rather than in front of) us, just to see what he'll do Originally Posted by Zen
