lady70 - yes like Romos said and they are indeed delicious - so are quails eggs. There are just so many (too many to know and tell) eggs we can eat - how about cavier for one? Don't think I would like this myself though.

Yes i have noticed this which I am sure many people have - why I was only talking of this to one of my true friends this very evening. Such a shame and yes it may sound selfish but an understanding of the depths of despair that person may be going through which is inclined to consume them and it is those left behind who feel so guilty as clu says - but when in this psychological state all logic escapes them - they probably have such low self esteem that they believe no one would really miss them. Problem is I feel society has broken down and have a theory that mobile phones texting and computers prevent body language which is 70% of communication and therefore humanity seems to get less and less people become more lonely in fact most people who go to see psychiatrist are lonely - just that. For some people life is such an effort they have to have the most enormous courage to go on. Not easy until you have and difficult to understand unless you have walked in their shoes. To digress there is a saying or quote "I used to worry about my shoes until I saw someone with no feet".  

Can't choose - too many to say. Just one OK ' I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues'. 

I don't tan have all the stuff sitting there - pale these days as don't go out like I used - in fact was hardly ever in during the daylight hours. Do not like sunbathing - South of France three months came back looking like a carrot - Jersey two weeks came back looking tanned - but not sunbathing. Black people have all that pigmentation to protect them from the sun's ultra- rays which is strong in their countries and where they originate from. I have noticed what beautiful skin black people have and how they do not have the same ageing signs as white people on the whole.White people do look better when tanned - must get the stuff out will be a better match for the teeth. Years ago it did not matter so much.   

jersy - I am very impressed - love the subjects (agree with Benthere and Colleen re the dead bird but the angels standing by beautiful does detract from any morbidity) and love the clarity just beautiful.  You continue with photography and maybe one day have a super camera.

Ireich -  doolitte is right - two many nurses these days rely on others for the answers - the training seems to be lacking these days and holistic does not enter it. I have witnessed appalling nursing of late so very sad - by no means the same anymore. Just to help perhaps a little. (1) Make sure the patient is not receiving any pain or discomfort. (2) Reassurance (3) Make sure the area is kept as clean and sterile as possible - very important here.

I believe dogs can most certainly love - and would never say they have no soul - there is a lot of reserch on this concerning all animals. Animals in my opinion are just amazing many looking after their young with such love care protection and affection. I think the problem is Homo Sapiens think they are superior to animals - science tells us otherwise - there is no evidence for this especially regarding DNA etc. Their companionship, caring are seen to be so beneficial to the elderly in Homes even in Prisons and how brilliant are the blind dogs.Like Homo Sapiens they are I feel only vicious in reponse to ill treatment but there loyalty an comfort is far greater more often that the Human Being.  There was a dog recently who was left in afghanistan belonged to a guy who was killed and I believe found by his friend and brought back and for days and days he sat by his grave. They are among the unsung heros of wars. Like the horses were/are. Years ago I read a book on this by a very famous Autrian psychologist - of not with the up to date science - I must look it out.  

Colleen - I do so hope your are OK what an ordeal it must be for you - I am so hoping there will be very few fatalaties and things get better. You have all had too much of this kind of tragedy just so awful. Do take very good care of yourself - What is good everyone seems to be pulling together and helping each other. LOL and thinking of all the people involed in this so sad.

Dragnet501 - approximately one ounce. = 28.349 grammes. 

 itsmee cannot get this - I'll be watching the Bafta;s sounds boring compared to what you described in this year's Grammies - probably get to see it sometime. And the winner is..... 

lindilou - you are right but - so confusing. Maybe he is not using his connection.
