  - welcome to your 40's. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 21, 07:11 2
    - This is odder. I mean, I was able to drop 8 pounds in a few weeks just last year. I think this is due to a change in medication. I AM old, but... -- nm - Amy Apr 21, 07:14
    - yup. -- nm - loosilu Apr 21, 07:12

  - I have not been on a scale in a couple of weeks, but my belt is tight. -- nm - ty97 Apr 21, 07:07 10
    - yeah i know the feeling - tRuMAN Apr 21, 07:08 9
      - I would *kill* to lose inches and stay the same weight right now -- nm - ty97 Apr 21, 07:10 8
        
        crunches! -- nm - loosilu Apr 21, 07:11 7
        
        I'm incapable of doing a sit-up. I learned this over the weekend. Back won't leave floor. (pathetic) -- nm - ty97 Apr 21, 07:12 5
        
        Planks. -- nm - Amy Apr 21, 07:17
        
        try assisted at first, until you're strong enough. lie down with knees bent. Hold on to your knees or thighs to help pull up. - loosilu Apr 21, 07:14 2
        
        that and most people do sit ups wrong anyways. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 21, 07:15 1
        
        true. -- nm - loosilu Apr 21, 07:15
        
        my back problems have contributed to gaining all 45 pounds I lost last year back. - groiny Apr 21, 07:14
        
        *back explodes* nm -- nm - groiny Apr 21, 07:11
  - I think it is sometimes. There are days that I *feel* huge but I step on the scale and I'm the same or lost weight -- nm - oblique Apr 21, 07:04 1

So, I think it is safe to say that if Harper gets his majority the anti-abortion crowd will be very happy. I fear for civil unions as well actually -- (link) - Beaker Apr 21, 06:47 12

  - the big hurt is the left is split between 4 parties (NDP, Liberals, Bloc and Green). While the Right just has the one. -- nm - Beaker Apr 21, 06:59 7
    - What are the main differences between the 4 lefty parties? I wonder which one I would be. -- nm - Don Homer Apr 21, 07:04 6
      - you can find out! take the CBC Vote Compass! - Andie Apr 21, 07:07 2
        
        I came out Liberal. -- nm - loosilu Apr 21, 07:11
        
        Green! (Thanks; I recall I took that before, actually.) -- nm - Don Homer Apr 21, 07:10
      - the Bloc is just Quebec and want to separate from Canada. The Green is environmentally driven. and truthfully the Libs and NDP are very close -- nm - Beaker Apr 21, 07:06 2
        
        NDP is more about representing the 'other' guy. they are pro-union, pro-women, pro-anyone-who-might-feel-marginalized. -- nm - Andie Apr 21, 07:08
        
        NWBR or Walt could expand more if they are around. I don't trust the NDP has they seem to have no clue about finance. -- nm - Beaker Apr 21, 07:07
- he has repeatedly said he won't reopen the abortion issue, and i don't think we can go backwards on civil unions. - Andie Apr 21, 06:51 2
  - maybe, but they can cut funding to all abortion providors and groups like Planned Parenthood -- nm - Beaker Apr 21, 06:52 1
    - they can. but they've cut funding to tons of other stuff too. -- nm - Andie Apr 21, 06:59

        It's the pain in the chest for women, associated with trouble with men. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 21, 07:14 4

        This will probably drive the SB price down as well. I might hold on to my prizes for a while. -- nm - Strongbad Apr 21, 06:44 3
