the smartest people i know are in 2 catogories

1) thoes with crazy memories. I worked for a CFO at fidelity that had a photographic memory. Simply because they can remember what line 7 on page 99 says in a 500page book (basicaly what a computer could do) they make it to very high levels. He was VP at age 32 at fidelity.. CFO by age 35. Thats not common at all.

2) those with crazy processing speeds. Ability to think on feet and make critical and correct decitions quicker then all else.

Intellectuals allot of the times are know it all's and happen to be the ones with PHD's. They don't impress me as much as the other 2 categories above thats more genetic. They just have had more schooling on top of an average intelligence level.

We have computers for that, Chap, we don't need people for it, even though it's a nice ability.

Yep, I think a woman should be able to insist on those, seriously. I mean, why do they force you to have your body practically split open, and torn up when there is another way? That sucks.

I think they're elective these days, the procedure has come a long way.
 
I got a flu shot this year, they recomended it because I was working with my father who was very ill.

Anyway, while everyone else was sick as a dog in my house, I felt fine. I am not sure which was worse however, taking care of everyone else or being sick.

Don't laugh Cawacko, me and my two closest friends have started a PR/communications business together. We're doing really well too, especially for three women just starting out in a business. So what do you think we talk about? How we have to start socking some money away for upkeep. Boob lift, one of those "lifestyle face lifts" you know, the works.

When you are pushing 40, and actually one of them is in their 40's, you are thinking abotu that. But, my bf says he will leave me if I ever have that kind of surgery. that doesn't take it off the table though.

Well, sometimes a boob job looks alright, sometimes it doesn't, but you can pretty much always tell. I know this from too much time looking at porn. 99% of men won't mind though. It'll make a sell easier because they won't even be paying attention, just staring at your boobs, which always establishes a positive relationship.

No, not that kind of boob job water. lol Yeah, you can pretty much always tell. And from what I understand, they're hard. Though, i've never tried feeling them myself so I can't swear to it.

C sections today are basically as safe as normal births. But the only real advantage would be that you wouldn't have to feel the pain.

The recovery is much more painful with a C-Section than it ever is or has been with a natural birth.

If you want the least pain use the spinal tap and have the child vaginally.

BTW - Don't be talking like you know something about childbirth if you haven't at least been present at one.

During a C-Section they use these "spreaders" that look like inside out sauce pans and pull, rigorously at the opening that they put in the stomach of the woman. It is not "nice" and the recovery is that of somebody who went through a major surgery, because that is what they went through.

I'd take the aching for a few days over the agony of contractions and labor anytime. Induction then spinal was perfect...:)
 
you would think wed get technology to have an artificial womb so that baby grows in optimal conditions and mother is not effected at all.

And if we worked towards it with the same intensity we did towards landing a man on the moon we'd have certainly figured it out by now.

Real reproductive choice.
