Cheeseburgers and banana sandwiches
May I ask 1 question? What the hell are you talking about?
I have gone to college, and in most circles it would be considered a good education. I can argue morals and goodness till the Oompa Loompas jiz on their shoes.
Stand in a doorway with 4 children, 3 women, 2 elderly folk and 1 guy reaching for his assault rifle. This guy is going to shoot you no matter what. Do you open fire and try to hit him and maybe risk hitting any of the others? This is the stupid moral question that is not taught in college and should not be debated. In the end there is actually 1 question in life. When do you choose to die. Enuff with this
where in the world did that come from?
Huh?
quote tags are your friends
It seemed to be the most appropriate on topic reply I could think of :)
Okay, is everyone on meth tonight?
Where did it come from? Questions on morality and ethics when you are still in college. Lots of left/right philosophy on what "I would do if" or "what I would have done" in this thread. Honestly, the first time a guy even aimed a gun at me I pissed myself. Historically, Napoleon would have said charge and I would have been asking the French word for toilet paper. Sorry bout that. Double stain. Anyway...back to the holocaust.

Gitmo. Where do I start? and where do I end?
Ohms, what do you want me to say? I will admit that most likely 0-40% of those held are 100% innocent. The problem is we did pick up a huge chunk of these fellows when we invaded afghanistan. Technically without any declarartion of war, we can hold nobody. Realistically, we must since we cant declare war. It is still the Bush quandry. This is where I am stuck like so many others. Let them all go, and we do let go of some serious dudes who want to bring us down no matter what. No joke. On the other hand, we release the normal guys who were just there and want to go home.
My personal opinion is to release them all an then wait. We need to learn the impact of "democracy on demand" and "forced reintegration". Im not asking for hurt at home, but I still dont think people get it.
*scratches head*
I think that free2131 must have been right on the mark earlier. You're on drugs, aren't you?
Either that or your completely blitzed.
At least, I hope so. That way what you're saying here will at least make a little bit of sense.
or that I have a sense of humor, and am up late working on this ****ing proposal for the United Way.Quote:

If, however, they are allowed to follow their own schedule, e.g. sleeping from 4 a.m. to noon, they sleep soundly, awaken spontaneously, and do not feel sleepy again until their next "night".
Thats too bad ohms, sleep disorders really suck more than anything. I had a touch of the flu and it really throws me out of whack. Sunday I only got 1 hour of sleep and its been an ordeal ever since.
The last time I had the flu, I didnt sleep for 3 days until I went to the hospital and the dr gave me some knock out medicine. I hate it, but I guess its the way it goes.
Exactly
a lot of mine i think is self induced. In college, I was an on-air radio vj for 3 years. I worked over nights frmo 10p-5a during the week, as well worked at a bank in the morning from 8-noon. and I would have afternoon classes M-W-F's. I got to sleep Tuesday and Thursday afternoons and some weekend hours...when I wasn't with my gf. I have always been a bit of a workaholic...but during this time period....I would stay up for 75 hours in a row at times....it was terribly unhealthy for me. I started seeing things during my late night shift...it stunted my growth (this is the age that most Lage's do their most growing, and I didn't) and I lived on Mountain Dew to stay awake. I learned a lot of valuable lessons, but when you are staying up for 3 solid days straight only to get a two hour nap, followed by another day of being up and then sleeping like 15 hours in a row on a Saturday...you just can't get normal sleep ever again it seems. And I am somewhat permanetly stuck...and this was 5 freaking years ago...I have had many jobs where I had to be at work at 8 A.M. and I just couldn't ever go to bed at night in order to get to work on time in the mornings, I would do it, but I would be doing so on zero sleep. I just could never get back into a normal routine. then a doctor told me I had a form of DSPS and that is likely it. It's supposed to be inate...but I still believe I caused most of it.Quote:

Reading a little bit though, our experiences seem to be fairly common. It's not that we've caused it, we've simply adjusted our lives to the fact that we're "disabled".
DSPS fits me to a tee too. Will have to have my doctor look into it. Sleep meds don't help. Melatonin did help, but I am on a medication to keep me from remembering my nightmares and the melatonin countered that, and that is a no-go.
I would be most worried of the stress it put on your heart at that time. I worry about that myself constantly. But I can see how you put yourself on such a routine how it can have permanent effects. Look on the bright side, when you have your baby boy at least you will be up for those nite time feedings. Your girl will love you for it. :)
when you say it like that, it makes us sound like we are alcoholics in much the same wayQuote:

The thing is that I guess for most people, even if you "adjust" your sleeping pattern (say, to work nights), they never really adjust. That sounds a lot like me trying to continuously make a 8 or 9 am work shift. I can do it, but it's a chore. I have to force myself.
If I just let myself go my natural rhythm seems to be that I go to sleep at around 3 am and wake up at 10 or 11. It's been that way for as long as I can remember.
haha yup! We have had that convo many times! she used to really struggle with my sleeping pattern, always upset that I would come to bed so late, but she seems to be better about it now, I just tend to sleep at my office a lot because if I am going to stay up late, and come to bed late, it will simply wake her up.Quote:
