No salad for me today. Quesadillas!

Prolly after Jill Tracy.

Sweet!

Maybe... Not likely, I work until midnight.

From time to time, something someone does just amazes me. I'm regularly surprised at how few people know how to check into or out of the hotel. Really? You're shocked because I asked for your ID? Yes! I really do need a form of payment. These aren't young kids just turned 21 these are grown adults. I'm also amazed by socks... But, that's cause socks can be awesomeness.

Like I have a new solution to a crappy problem, but I just need to see if it pans out.

Wish granted... You become exceptionally popular and have an entourage that wants you around so badly they pick you up and take you out to clubs. Pay for drinks? Not you. But, you take it to extremes, because you don't have to drive, so you drink to excess. You're still having too much fun, but so is the guy in your posse driving you. You crash into a wall of cement coming back from the club doing 120 mph. Now, you're a vegetable and your family won't pull the plug... Little do they know that while you aren't concious... You're in intense pain, but you can't even blink an eye to let them know. I wish I could play this game in fun, but I wish for things and it normally backfires!

Count drawer. Talk to next shift. Go home. Read book. Sleep. Eastern Market!

Plotting my trip to Eastern Market tomorrow morning! Yay!

I could keep an eye out for foreclosures around me. My house was $45,000 and I only pay $565 on my mortgage payments (taxes and insurance are included in that amount). It's better than renting and my lot size is 100x180. My neighbors are very quiet, I've been curious to see if someone snatches up the house next to me that just went vacant.

I have all the books. I can't stand to think you're reading them out of order. PM me.

After 40 you run a much larger risk of birth defects. Ideally, a person would have kids in their 30s so they can support the children financially and are (hopefully) in a much more stable situation then when they were in their 20s. I'm not a big fan of people having kids in their 20s... Too many changes in personality then and most of those relationships are less stable.

Nope. That's what adoption is for. There are far too many parentless children out there that want a real home.

I took lessons for saxophone and piano when I was younger. I'm not very coordinated with my hands though. What would you like to learn?

Cancer patients whose tumors are targeted with heat treatment as well as chemotherapy are more likely to stay alive and cancer-free for longer than those who receive only chemotherapy, researchers said on Tuesday. The finding suggests it may be possible to cut the dose of chemotherapy drugs by using heat, although more research is needed to establish this, they said. German researchers looking at cancers in soft tissues such as muscle, fat and tissue around the joints, found that heat treatment more than doubled the proportion of patients whose tumors responded to chemotherapy. Importantly, the process did not increase the harmful effects of chemotherapy treatment. Shares in BSD Medical, which makes the heat treatment system used in the German study, more than doubled in early trade and were the biggest gainers on the Nasdaq market. The stock was 120 percent higher at $4.13 by 1350 GMT. "We expect our findings will encourage other researchers to test the approach in other locally advanced cancers," said Rolf Issels, a professor of medical oncology at the University of Munich in Germany. "Targeted heat therapy has already shown promise in recurrent breast and locally advanced cervical cancer in combination with radiation, and studies combining it with chemotherapy in other localized tumors such as those in the pancreas and rectum are ongoing." Heat therapy for cancer involves a technique known as regional hyperthermia, which uses focused electromagnetic energy to warm the tissue in and around the tumor to between 40 and 43 degrees Celsius (104 to 109.4 degrees Fahrenheit). The heat not only kills cancer cells, but also seems to make chemotherapy work better by making cancer cells more sensitive, Issels said. It also improves blood flow, allowing chemotherapy to be more effective. Issels said his findings, presented at the ECCO-ESMO European cancer congress in Berlin, showed that soft tissue sarcoma patients receiving the targeted heat therapy plus chemotherapy "fared better on all outcome measurements." "Almost three years after starting treatment, they were 42 percent less likely to experience a recurrence of their cancer at the same site or to die than those who were getting chemotherapy alone," he said. The average length of time that patients remained disease free was 32 months in the group that got both treatments, compared with 18 months in the group that got chemotherapy alone -- an improvement of 30 percent. Issels said the equipment and specialist knowledge to be able to offer such heat therapies is only currently available in a handful of clinics and hospitals in Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Norway and the United States. But he urged cancer doctors to take note. "The clear results of this trial show that the field has now matured to the point where we must step up efforts to explore its potential to offer an entirely new way of treating locally advanced disease in several major cancers," he said.

I love mid-shifts!

Dude I live a mile from Cheetahs in Southfield. I don't have drug addicts walking up and down my street. I have nice neighbors that walk their dogs in the morning and take couples' strolls in the afternoon. The kids stay mostly quiet and I barely notice I have neighbors when I'm not waving hello. I say let 'em strip!

Lack fo faith leads to suicidal tendancies and complete conviction leads to mass murder (think Nazi levels). I'm going with complete conviction is worse... Who's your favorite person to hang with when you want to be happy?

Creepy... If you woulda caught it on video you'd be a hit on youtube.
