Thanks I'll check into that. And yes I finally realized that I misspelled the darn thing. Fibromyalgia.

My first post isn't so clear, so I'll try to make it a bit more specific. Is there a way to connect the triggers, so that doctors would be able to find some more clues that would lead to earlier testing and fibromylagia could be caught sooner? Patients are diagnosed after the triggers occur, so maybe if it's found before, people will be able take precautions so they don't end up disabled for the rest of their life.

This is one of the most confusing conditions I have ever heard of. A person could go about their daily life, maybe not getting enouhg sleep and then everything can change at the drop of a hat. To be more precise everything can change by one of these triggers: car accidents, virus, bacteria, chemical, and certain emotional trauma. After one of these incidents a person's life is filled with a daily pain that goes through the whole entire body, food cravings or a lack of appetite, fatigue, stomach problems, unable to concentrate, etc.. I'm wondering if any of you guys could guess if there's anything connected in the triggers that could bring on something like this. Some doctors say that it's genetic. The testing doesn't really help because doctors don't test for Fibromylagia. They test for Lupus, Lyme, or a thyroid disorder. When these are checked off the list than the person is usually diagnosed with Fibromylagia.

As hungry as I am right now, this doesn't even phase me. I'm just happy I don't have to go through all that effort to make my burgers.

Good. Not to mention we're already starting to do this stuff with technology. There's that guy I read in an article who has his brain hooked up to a computer, and he's essentially controlling the environment around him with his mind.

This is so stupid. Why is it that having a database of free information without getting the drama that comes along with it is so hard to accomplish? Why can't people have the right to learn what they want to in peace without interference from people who don't really care about it?

Oh sorry. Yeah it was cancelled after season one. But if you want to know what happens, it just replaced Firefly's time spot on Fridays on sci-fi channel. My show needs some high ratings so some nice person will come along and make a John Doe movie.

What good sci-fi show wasn't cancelled after season one on Fox. And I would prefer to pretend that season two of Dark Angel didn't exist lest we hurt it's good name.

They can still be parents. Artificial insemination, adoption, surrogate mothers, they have a lot more options today then they would have in the past. Homosexuals aren't going to bring this world's population to a halt. What about heterosexuals that don't want children? Heterosexuals outnumber homosexuals so wouldn't that be a bigger problem than homosexuals who need help reproducing?

What good Fox show wasn't axed after season one?

John Doe is on SCi-fi Channel in Georgia state right now. OMG I love sci-fi channel!

Darn you for making me think today. I think if I wasn't traumatized by no television for two days I think I would get this.

If you go on a plane and you have a condition like bipolar disorder, and it's pretty serious and you're not taking your meds, you're left with three choices. Wait to you're on meds again before flying, or alert someone at the airport about your condition! Flight attendants, TSA, etc. They will help you, and if either the man or his wife had alerted them, flight attendants would have been ready to handle the situation, and the marshal probably wouldn't have had to use deadly force. Or you could go with the third choice- none of the above. If the marshal was close enough to the guy, rubber bullets wouldn't make much difference. Besides, having to change rounds takes up precious time.

The marshals don't have x-ray vision. If there had been a bomb in that bag there is no way in the world he would have been able to know how powerful the explosives would be, so there is no way to assume that the people on the plane still wouldn't get hurt. Not to mention since the guy is running away from the plane, isn't he getting closer to the jumbles of people in the airport? If you're dumb enough to run down the street screaming you have a bomb, yeah, you deserve to get shot. And for other replies about the tasers and tranquilizer darts, someone already mentioned that firing a taser gun at someone supposedly holding a bomb = bad idea. As far as tranqs, heavy clothing and crazy people take a while to go down. And if someone hasn't mentioned this already( they will) aiming for nonlethal parts still leaves the guy able to detonate the bomb, and more likely to hit one of the other passengers.

This topic brings up lovely memories. When I moved to a mostly black elementary school in Georgia from Spokane Washington, I experienced a lot of this. I was raised in a military family so I was also very proper. I was refered to as 'White Chocolate', and asked several times if I was confused about what color I was supposed to be. Unlike some previous advice in earlier posts, I didn't recognize how they were puting their own deficiencies on me and simply ignore them. I learned how to curse like a sailor, constantly started fights, and by doing this they left me alone. By giving in to them I lost a lot of confidence, and it took me a very long time to gain it back. Today, I do see many more blacks who don't view achieving a better education as 'acting white', and understand this is the best way to further their child's potential.

I couldn't have said it any better. At least I have House and Smallville to keep me happy.

Out of the list, Prison break is my favorite. I'm surprised you didn't include Threshold.

I can change what voice I think in, but I prefer to think in my own voice. It's at a regular volume and and gets as high as my real voice does if I'm excited about something. I'm able to bring any sound to mind or adjust it as I see fit. I think because I used to play the clarinet and I always thought about what something would sound like before I played it. When I'm reading, the mental voice has a volume to it until I'm really into the book and it no longer has a sound at all, it's just words.

Kermit, if all else fails and he keeps bothering you, try the oldest response ever, knee him in the groin.

I watch porn. As a matter of fact my friends and I were just discussing this one pirate porno coming out that looks like it has a plot. The only problem for us women is that we get jipped on cute guys. I am starting to see hotter guys in pornos. I think the difference is that most women actually care about the storyline. The only way I've seen porn in a negative way is by some guys who watch it in excess. They're kinda creepy.

No wonder I don't know what Red Dwarf is, that sucker came out when I was three. I guess that one is for old people too. Oh, here's something for you old folks. http://imdb.com/title/tt0276447/
