I agree with you. I loved the tanning bed at my apartment complex in college. In fact, one of the things that drew me to renting from them is that they had a free tanning bed you could use once a day. Now, I have a friend who has skin cancer and I'm re-thinking the tanning beds. I do know, however, that the spray-tan can make you streaky.
I do agree that tanning is a major issue we need to keep close eye on.

Nuetrogena spray mist. I have olive skin and tend to turn orange when spray tanned but this stuff hasn't failed me yet. It won't make you "tan" but you'll look like you have a healthy glow-no streaks, no orange. Also no skin cancer.

I never went back to him again. It was unprofessional, and I can find a new neurologist that will treat me with respect. Even physicians get the run around when they become patients. It is hard to be a patient...even harder when you don't know what you are getting yourself into, so educate yourself!
Second bold...ahhh, Alaska!

There was such a huge difference in the city (Anchorage/Fairbanks) and the tiny clinics that serve a huge region. Did I get good care? Yes, it was amazing, you have to be a jack of all trades, master of none, and you can't be a d-bag because of how small the community is. I'm not looking forward to getting sick when I'm in the field this summer, but if I do I know Family Medical Center in Delta Junction is going to follow up, see me even if they are swamped or about to close (my site was 30+ miles away and I had no car), and deal with my out of state insurance hassle.

I have a healthy glow, it is called what I was born with. It is the perfect genetic recombination of all my background and God created me the way I need to be and it doesn't involve me harming myself or staining my clothes. Jesus Christ Super Star people, LOVE THE SKIN YOU CAME IN.

Wrong answer. We already know nowadays how people got caught up because courts thought they had 'airtight cases' and years later evidence comes along supporting that they didn't. While I am for the death penalties in some cases, I am not for swift justice by any means. When you move too fast, mistakes are made.
Again, they can get a free degree but how does that translate into putting it to good use?
Again, anything given for 'free' has its consequences (dang...I am really going back on my word...someone else take this up please!) even the quality of what is given and what someone chooses to do with it afterwards? it's on them.
I am seriously done for now....hehehe

Let me say it really slow.
Max (or whatever ego they use) is not out to make a salient point.
They are out seeking your acknowledgement of them (I.e. get your attention)
If you feed a monkey, he will keep coming back for more food in any obnoxious manner until you feed him.
GC needs to stop feeding the zoo's occupant.

So his words were a bit harsh. I do find them to be offensive, but his points aren't necessarily "off" if you replace certain words with other (less offensive) words.

STOP REPLYING TO HIM. You're giving him exactly what he wants. Whether you agree with what he's saying "replacing offensive words balh blah" you are only fueling his fire and once everyone on this board starts completely ignoring him, he's gona keep doing it.

ok...
Miss Turn the Blind Eye
You keep entertaining while the rest of us follows sane advice.
Maybe you should just stick to talking about necklaces.

Oh, that's right. I forgot. You mean, "Maybe you should just stick to talking about things DaemonSeid agrees with" and everything will be okay.
I can talk about whatever the hell I want to talk about. Turning the blind eye? Not hardly. I do community service with my spare time. I'm sure some people can't say the same thing.
Back to the thread, I'm waiting to see how everyone reacts to this in the next year or so. I don't mean how they react now. I'm just saying in a year or so. It makes me smile when I think how Obama got the Nobel Peace Prize for....well, I'm not sure what. Maybe he got it for not being George W. Bush (which, I'm sure is Nobel Peace Prize worthy  ). Maybe now people will really be behind him and all the GREAT things he has done for this country.
I can't wait for election time, again!
