I love the little push-ups they do, I think they're sort of playground roughhousing. Then they chase each other. Nothing happens when they catch up. Most of the time they don't. Even the little ones do it. Maybe it's like showing off.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14633269965300583029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7329547883059219264.post-50458944015320707862011-10-08T20:37:34.600-07:002011-10-08T20:37:34.600-07:00Why are the lizards huddled together?

He thinks they are aggressive (haha)and they'll bite him. I asked him why and he says they look at him, and do push-ups, as if they are threatening him. (Lizard talking to AL: Oh, yeah, I see those popeye arm muscles, but how many of these push-ups can you do? Hm?)Ronniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14219659853143564377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7329547883059219264.post-6018461098803978332011-10-01T14:28:10.665-07:002011-10-01T14:28:10.665-07:00It's really worse for younger children now, wi...It's really worse for younger children now, with all the unknowns in ingredients, genetically modified being the worst. In a rural part of Washington state, our post office had signs up warning consumers that rBGH was being approved in the US, with no need to label. The posters suggested reading research on why Canada had banned it. I did. Back then, I had no idea it was about to be approved, but today as I read about all the prostate problems, I think, no wonder. More people need to just say NO to the corporate assault on our health.

Often it's in overweight or out-of-shape people, but it comes in all forms and ages. Typically it causes the weight gain, so you may be taking care of two problems at once (no more 'killing two birds' - my mother has an African Gray).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14633269965300583029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7329547883059219264.post-40863889944089601642011-04-15T07:05:22.091-07:002011-04-15T07:05:22.091-07:00No kidding around: a great article Renita!

After paying about $10,000 in health insurance premiums for a number of years, Blue Cross wouldn't pay the one year I had medical expenses - they said I didn't meet their deductible. I was over the deductible by $2000, but they claimed, i.e., they cover only $200 on a $1200 bill, etc. In their calculations, I'd never meet my deductible. What was I paying for? How many people figure this out like I did, after being cheated?

The problem with your position Renita is that the world does not run on facts, but rather superstition and monied interests, and most importantly emotions.
