[QUAD-L] Why Did the chicken cross the road?
Why did the Chicken cross the road? GEORGE W. BUSH: We don't really care why the chicken crossed the road. We just want To know if the chicken is on our side of the road or not. The chicken is either with us or it is against us. There is no middle ground here. AL GORE: I invented the chicken. I invented the road. Therefore, the chicken crossing the road represented the application of these two different functions of government in a new, reinvented way designed to bring greater services to the American people. RALPH NADER: The chicken's habitat on the original side of the road had been polluted by unchecked industrialist greed. The chicken did not reach the unspoiled habitat on the other side of the road because it was crushed by the wheels of a gas-guzzling SUV. PAT BUCHANAN: To steal a job from a decent, hard-working American. RUSH LIMBAUGH: I don't know why the chicken crossed the road, but I'll bet it was getting a government grant to cross the road, and I'll bet someone out there is already forming a support group to help chickens with crossing-the-road syndrome. Can you believe this? How much more of this can real Americans take? Chickens crossing the road paid for by their tax dollars, and when I say tax dollars, I'm talking about your money, money the government took from you to build roads for chickens to cross. DR. SEUSS: Did the chicken cross the road? Did he cross it with a toad? Yes, the chicken crossed the road, But why it crossed, I've not been told! ERNEST HEMINGWAY To die. In the rain. Alone. MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR. I envision a world where all chickens will be free to cross roads without having their motives called into question. GRANDPA: In my day, we didn't ask why the chicken crossed the road. Someone told us that the chicken crossed the road, and that was good enough for us. BARBARA WALTERS Isn't that interesting? In a few moments we will be listening to the chicken tell, for the first time, the heart-warming story of how it experienced a serious case of molting and went on to accomplish its life-long dream of crossing the road. JOHN LENNON Imagine all the chickens crossing roads in peace. ARISTOTLE It is the nature of chickens to cross the road. KARL MARX It was a historical inevitability. SADDAM HUSSEIN This was an unprovoked act of rebellion and we were quite justified in dropping 50 tons of nerve gas on it. VOLTAIRE I may not agree with what the chicken did, but I will defend to the death its right to do it. RONALD REAGAN What chicken? CAPTAIN KIRK To boldly go where no chicken has gone before. FOX MULDER You saw it cross the road with your own eyes! How many more chickens have to cross before you believe it? SIGMUND FREUD The fact that you are at all concerned that the chicken crossed the road reveals your underlying sexual insecurity. BILL GATES I have just released eChicken 2003, which will not only cross roads, but will lay eggs, file your important documents, and balance your checkbook - and Internet Explorer is an inextricable part of eChicken. MARTHA STEWART No one called to warn me which way that chicken was going. I had a standing order at the farmer's market to sell my eggs when the price dropped to a certain level. No little bird gave me any insider information. ALBERT EINSTEIN Did the chicken really cross the road or did the road move beneath the chicken? BILL CLINTON I did not cross the road with THAT chicken. What do you mean by chicken? Could you define chicken, please? THE BIBLE And God came down from the heavens, and He said unto the chicken, "Thou shalt cross the road." And the chicken crossed the road, and there was much rejoicing. COLONEL SANDERS I missed one?

Re: [QUAD-L] Broken bones
Thank you so much! Oddly enough he did test positive for his urine culture and also today he got a script for hydrocodone which is generic brand of vicodin. He also tore his miniscis??? I put a knee brace on it I am just worried about sores being so still for so long. Help[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:I slipped off my sliding board in the 93 and did an awesome job on my left knee. I didn't realize it at first. I was mostly P.O.ed at myself for falling. I went to the doctors the next evening noticing I was feeling awful and thought I had a bad kidney infection and my knee was real swollen.(pretty sure I had hurt it) Pain meds helped my kidneys. They just put an adjustable velcro splint on my leg and it healed slowly, but I had to start ROM befor it healed and fused in a single position. You may want to see if his discolored urine clears up with some vicodin. Pain can cause kidneys and other organs to mess up. Ya don't feel it but its there. They should have splinted his leg. I Think you want a 30 degree angle at the knee. If AD (Autonomic Dysreflexia) starts you should call 911 and goto the ER. Try to get a physiatrist to consult. Watch his blood preasure. Make him comfortable if he starts running a fever. Use ice on the knee. and try some pain meds. If kidney output keeps dropping, head to the ER. I'm willing to bet the pain is causing what appears to be a UTI. good luck, john In a message dated 7/3/2006 6:00:41 PM Eastern Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: He also tore his miniscus(sp?)

[QUAD-L] new to the list
Dear Quad list: My name is floee and I am not a quad. My boyfriend is and I am interested in some of the discussions he receives on his email through the quadlist. I am interested and want to learn as much as I can to better understand life after a SCI. I have many questions about SCI and would love to look to other people experiencing or have experienced the same kind of things throughout your lives. Thank you for future advice or answers. __Do You Yahoo!?Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
