It is on until Feb 26/06

I haven't been yet, but I am going. Everyone is pretty blown away by the detail of each specimen, so I've heard especially the nervous system. Although there is some controversy surrounding the "gathering" of the bodies and the plastinization process itself. Although I have seen a real cadaver and I am looking forward to leaving the smell behind and just looking at the beautiful inner workings of our bodies.

"i don't like any of your music"

"i came here hoping i had found a circle of people who were genuinely all about the music. i was let down."

[color:green]You create your own reality!!

I'm not sure if I know you or not but I saw your post and believe that a liver cleanse may be in order. Our liver performs over 500 functions for the body and is the only organ or bodily tissue for that matter that can regenerate itself.

The liver produces hormones, stores and mobilizes energy, aids in digestion, filters blood --eliminates bacteria and detoxifies poisons, breaks down drugs --, produces vitamin D, and stores minerals(iron), produces essential immune system factors, monitors as well as manufactures countless other blood proteins to maintain the proper level and numbers of chemicals in the body.

Over our lives our liver can become overwhelmed resulting in a sluggish and stressed internal environment. As well as upsetting the internal network of organs which are all interconnected and function optimally when everyone is working together as is the case in most situations. When the internal world is in upheavel so is the external.

I hope this helps. A particular cleanse I would highly recommend and have used is "Milk Thistle Combo" from St. Francis Herb Farm. You can use other brands this one is excellent though.

It is highly effective and I would recommend taking it 2x/day at the recommended dosage for 3 months and then off 1 month and repeat. You should start noticing changes quite quickly with in the first few weeks.

Winter is also hard on mood, sunshine and fresh air are invaluable.

Take care and I wish you many happy days ahead.

From one newbie to another, welcome aboard!

Hope you have fun!!

I recently started reading The Mayan Factor by Dr. Jose Arguelles, it is great.

The Maya were a very mysterious people who existence has been dated back as early as 4,00,000,000 years ago. Their culture seemed to have the ability to open points of entry from one world- realm into another, perhaps answering where they went and why they left behind so much detailed information about their culture including a much simpler yet far more accurate mathematical system than we possess today.

This author and more information is available at

http://www.13moon.com/time-is-art.htm this site is mostly about the 13 moon calendar which is the way the Mayan and other civilizations counted time and predicted shifts in consciousness. Once this calendar was replaced by the present Gregorian Calendar things like banks and stock market became the new way of life "time is money". and so on. Pretty interesting material.

Happy B-day Trev, I hope you have a great one.

B-day meditation

--- The playfulness of the Universe is reflected in the dance of the stars----

The Underdog is under the Red Dog, in the basement. The Red Dog is right across the street from the Only Cafe on Hunter just east of Aylmer St. Hope that helps.

I spent the weekend on dial up and missed this whole thread, so I definitely got a good laugh today, Large Marg if it was anyone but you I'm not sure that avatar could be "pulled" off nice one. I can't wait to see what is next.

Happy B-day Miranda. I hope you have a wonderful day.

From the Secret Language of Birthdays your b-day meditation is----

In the great battles of life, the most powerful weapons are often wisdom and understanding.

Caroline have you seen a black fleece sock around your place since NY. I seem to have lost it in my travels.

I'm a little bite of a klutz myself, I am usually only a danger to myself though. If you ever get a chance to see Dead Wood you should get a kick out of the "Calamity Jane" character.

Catching the fish is the best and since he is on occasion looking over his shoulder at himself are we to assume that he is in love with a blue screen copy of his double. Now that is disturbing.

See what I mean charming till the last drop. The Holiday Inn rocks and all, but we do have a better selection of music, we don't have that wild hotel carpeting though. Darn!

Happy Birthday Dave,

I have a Bday book which includes a meditation for each day of the year yours is "The highest calling, perhaps, is to be true to oneself. On that note enjoy your day.

That is great I had a nice laugh although I must say that I was waiting for the part when the angles and David H rock it out in their Baywatch Speedos or maybe not it was disturbing enough. Disturbing and hilarious.

Hey I'm back I didn't answer any inquiries I'll do my best. Palace Princess I do like ween I have seen them two times in Toronto and would gladly go again. Kaidy Mae yes that was me that you shared a cab with on NYE hopefully we will meet again I would love to see some of your photographs and to Paan one of my best friends name is Jen but I have a feeling that we are not the duo that you are referring to, but maybe there is room for a duo duo.

The borough is the "place" for late night shananigens there is no other like it. It is almost as addictive as this board. Think about that for a moment.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone, ya really know how to make a gal feel welcome. It will probably take me a little while to get everyone straight if at all possible. Thanks for the tip Calamity Jane I'm sure that the boogieknight will help me float my boat he is quite a charmer. Do you like the show Dead Wood by any chance something tells me yes. [color:blue]

Just wondering if anyone is going to Slammin Jack in Peterborough on Jan 26/06 which I think is a Thurs. It is at the Red Dog, bow wow.

Happy B-day Scott, and many more. Sorry this is a little belated, but I'm new around these parts so I figure that I got a little slack to play around with either that or I'm the slacker.

See ya around.
