Weird looking rashy/inflammatory thing on the back of my hand and I've got a kid with a hideous skin something from a dirty home in my class.

I told you to smack 'em with a ruler, instead of the back of your hand.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lignum_vitae I made two mallets and a number of other "treen" type stuff. I'll poke around and see if I can find the mallets.

I can understand why paperwork can be a drag on some people in specialized professions. But, what grinds my gears is when they try to place the blame of a breakdown or failure of something on the "I didn't get the paperwork for this." Amazing. I've been a paper pusher for 30 years. I was hired in this position because of an uncanny attention to detail in breaking down tasks - in this case: maintenance tasks on specialized equipment.
The machine breaks down and this technician tries to tell the boss he didn't received the "correct" paperwork outlining the job/s required. Production comes to a screaching halt. I have to "prove" the tech received the correct paperwork. That was the easy part - I went to HIS inbox and pulled out a 3" stack of miscellaneous paper. About an inch down, just under the twinkie wrapper, was the maintenance schedule outlining the required maintenance tasks for the previous week (which he didn't do). If said technician wasn't a 20 year employee with a clear work record he'd be wearing out the tile at the employment office. I don't inderstand why some people (not all) can't "stand up" to the errors "they" make. This technician, I believe, has itty-bitty little balls. |

I love paperwork. I'm a weirdo. (Loved it when I was in QA and love it in my current profession.) Must be that attention to detail you speak of.

Turbo does not like his new cat food...at all. He took two bites and that was all he would eat. I upgraded to Natural Balance which isnt made with meat-by-products, soy, wheat or corn gluten, or yeasts.
Luckily, I can return it to the pet store for an exchange to something he might eat, but still, here I thought I was doing something good for the cat and he snubs his nose at it.... ![]() |

Don't give up yet, try mixing it with his current food first, adjusting the mix until its all new stuff in a couple weeks.

seriously, there has never been a case of a cat starving to death because they wouldn't eat the food they were fed.
Pissing on your pillow, absolutley. Starving? Not once.

Yeah, you just did the equivalent of switching a child from an all-Twinkie diet to vegetables. It's gonna take some getting used to.

Pink Floyd
Wish You Were Here (Live) Delicate Sound of Thunder (Live) They rush. It sounds like somebody on stage is too excited to be touring with Pink Floyd and playing such a classic song. So, they let their nerves get away with them and they rush--and drag everybody along with them. When they get to the chorus, the vocals don't have room to breathe.

Heard of replacement cats?
There's like a billion frigging cats that would be happy to take a finicky eater's place. I have no patience for otherwise healthy cats who go on pout hunger strikes. We used to adopt all our cats from kill shelters, preferably hours before their execution. We had no problems with finicky eaters. It was as if they understood "Oh you don't like it here? I'd be happy to take you back." 100% compliance with the Nutirmax or Wysong or whatever healthfood cat food we were giving them. Thank god we're allergic to them now.
