I chose Snakes & Arrows not because it was all that amazing of a tour - although it WAS a good show...
I chose this tour because i saw this show at 5 different venues in Canada & the States and met some of the most amazing people that are still friends in my life.
Met all 3 admins of this forum...
and had the best time ever creating these friendships and meeting people - members of this board from all over the world. i would LOVE to do it all over again...
Pagscon , Party at the Exxon! Cincicon, Ladicon, London Ontario, Toronto...
I wouldn't trade those experiences for anything.
™I also saw 5 shows on that tour but how did you meet so many TRFers? I tried but hardly met anyone from here. I even carried the rushtour fan banner from Regina to Edmonton to Vancouver! You people are hard to find! Lol
1st leg of the S & A tour i saw the Rush Tour banner. it made it to The Palace of Auburn Hills. It was @ PNC in NJ also, but i never saw it.
I live in Michigan, so all of the shows i saw except for NJ were a few hours drive from me.
The board was an instrumental part of my being able to meet up with so many people. These gatherings were planned months in advance.

My wife isn't smoking anything, right now. She had major back surgery (a discectomy and fusion of t-12 and l-1) on June 16, and then she's been in the hospital since last Monday, because fluid and bone fragments had to be surgically removed from the left pleura (which surrounds the lung), and she's got 3 blood clots in the right lung.How's it going so far?
I'm not sure if she's going to hit the e-cigs again or not. The good news is that she's had a CT scan, a bunch of x-rays, and the fluid was sent to the lab, and no tumors or cancer cells were found in the lungs, after many years of smoking.
If she quits the e-cigs, I won't be mad, as long as she doesn't smoke any real cigs.
Well first of all, here's to hoping she heals quickly from the surgery.
:) IMHO i am not a big fan of the e cigs or Vaporizers. Lesser of two evils? perhaps.
I'm no expert. but i'm having a hard time accepting that this alternative way is any better.
I've tried the e cig route. just couldn't get into it at all. boyfriend bought a refillable rechargeable one some time ago with the intention of quitting smoking. now it sits and collects dust. he has broken it twice and now just doesnt even touch it. what a waste of $120.00 +.
based on my experience and on observation the only way one quits is when they make the conscious decision and CHOOSE to quit.
Can't put it any simpler than that.

In a totally NOT ME move, I am posting a thread to introduce myself to people who are going, "Who the hell is this chick?" and to re-introduce myself to the old-timers who have a vague memory of someone who used to hang out here and drool over Neil.
I'm one of the admins here, believe it or not, and of course have secretly been totally running the show from my secretcavefortressofsolitude...
Right, 1001?
Anyway, I hope to be more of a regular poster around these parts again, and I just thought I'd be all brash and drama-queenish and make a thread.
So...hello my beloved TRF. I'm back! :)
Who you callin old timer Belle... ?

"You couldn't handle the truth!"We visit the in-laws once a year, who live just outside of Detroit and I would be lying if I said I didn’t salivate at the thought of watching Detroit’s evening news.
ahhh... it ain't so bad here in the "D"...
Tigers almost made it to the World Series... Our former Mayor is now serving 30 yrs in prison... The city filed for bankruptcy...
Tonite is what's referred to as "Angels Night" Thousands of volunteers patrol the city in the first night of Angel’s Night to deter arson during the three-day period.
But hey, it's not as bad as it used to be.,,,
bring a cup to catch the saliva, just in case.... ;)

I don't look a day over 7 do I ?
Thanks #73 for the thread. I apologize for the delay in seeing & responding to it.
Life... ahhh
The anniversary did not go by without it crossing my mind on that day, though. I know the posts from me are far & few between, but TRF holds a very special place in my heart.

One thing that has changed though is that some of the old time posters aren't here as much or not at all. I hardly see Ghostgirl, Pags, Digital Man and Sundog. I see them on Facebook more than I see them here.
Indeed....

QUOTE (TullSkull @ Sep 6 2012, 08:42 AM) It is very sad.. For 50 years they have looked for a cure and they have them, but they don't pass them out to us, can't make money if they do, cancer is a huge money maker.
I lost my dad in 1993 and mom in 2000, in just the last year I have lost 4 friends to this shit and there are 2 others that are fighting for their life.
Sad to say that most of the cancers come from what we eat and drink, yes some are pron to it at birth, we all have dead old cells that can turn cancerous.
A good friend was told he was going to die from it a long time ago, he refused all their treatments walked out and treated it with diet and balanced his PH, to this day he is cancer free.
Cancer can not live in a PH balanced body.....
Cancer SUCKS!!
Stay Healthy Everyone....
In October, it will be 12 years since my dad lost his battle with cancer.
There ARE cures out there.
There ARE preventative measures that you can take to eliminate the possibility of cancer coming into your existence.
Here's an article I found stating one of the many reasons why "they" (aka big pharma) don't want the cures revealed...
QUOTE A safe and effective cure for cancer has been discovered with a drug that was once used for unusual metabolic problems. Yet, the cancer industry shows no interest with following up on dichloroacetate (DCA) research from University of Alberta in Edmonton, Canada, reported in 2007. That's because DCA is no longer patented. (1)
That research also confirmed cancer as a metabolic malfunction, not a weird mutation of cells often explained away as a genetic issue. But the medical mafia doesn't want you to hear about it. But it confirms what most alternative cancer therapists already know.
Since Nixon declared the "war on cancer" in the 1970s, the cancer industry has succeeded with raising money for researching very expensive chemo substances at $50,000 to $100,000 per round or more for toxic therapies that rarely work. (2)
Chemo drugs usually lead to demanding more business with drugs to ease terrible side effects (http://www.naturalnews.com/034761_cancer_drugs_toxicity_Voraxaze.html). Meanwhile, more are getting cancer and more are dying from it, mostly because of the toxic treatments.
Explaining DCA research results
Evangelos Michelakis and the Alberta University research team tested DCA on human cancer cells outside the body and in cancerous mice with profound success. DCA was once used for unusual metabolic disorders. The worst side effects, which rarely occur, include some numbness and an affected gait.
The mice were fed DCA in water, and in weeks they had remarkable tumor shrinkage. This indicates DCA can be taken orally. DCA works by restoring the cells' mitochondria. Michelakis and his team had discovered that the mitochondria in cancer cells are not permanently damaged and irreparable. This is what mainstream medicine thinks.
With mitochondria malfunctioning, cancer cells use glucose fermentation for survival energy. This fermentation occurs when glycolysis (glucose conversion) occurs in an anaerobic cellular environment, which can be created by benign tumor masses, toxins, and low pH levels.
DCA restores mitochondria in cells to make them function properly. Another function of normal mitochondria is signaling apoptosis, or cellular self destruction. Normal cells die and become replaced constantly. But with cancer cells, the apoptosis signal is nullified, making cancer cells "immortal." (3)
The Alberta University researchers also realized that glycolysis fermentation in cancer cells produces lactic acid. The lactic acid breaks down the collagen holding those cells together in a tumor. This allows cancer cells to easily break away from a tumor shrinking with mainstream therapies.
The researchers reasoned this is why cancer metastasizes or spreads to different parts of the body or reappears after remission from chemo.
Tragic hypocrisy
Alternative cancer therapies have little or no problem with metastatic cancer or even cancer reoccurring after remission. Most alternative cancers simply cure cancers completely.
DCA offers the cancer industry an opportunity to come up with a pharmaceutical cure that is much cheaper and safer than their current standard of care. Yet the cancer industry is ignoring this opportunity. Instead, DCA is a homeless orphan begging for research funds to avoid legal issues with off label use on cancer. (4)
Alternative cancer practitioners have always simply tried out and when they succeeded shared them with others who cared more about healing than money and power.
The medical mafia has created a matrix that demands big bucks to make big bucks for sick care instead of curing. Everyone in on the scam makes out financially. The cancer industry accuses alternative cancer therapists of quackery and taking advantage of the desperately ill for financial gain. Accusing others of your motives and crimes is called projection. -

I have eyes to see, ears to hear, hands with which to feel...
I believe my car will start every day, because it operated the day prior. Guess what, it doesn't ALWAYS start. I've arisen to a broken down car several times in my life.
My belief, which is based on the firm, real evidence of my vehicle's operation the previous day, has no bearing on reality.
I don't believe that everyone will stay out of my way. I'm not the center of their universe, and they aren't mine. I use awareness, reaction, and choice to avoid colliding with them. They do the same. But they might not.
My belief, which is based on the firm, real evidence that 999/1000 days, I make it to my destination without a problem, has no bearing on reality.
I believe that the sun will come up tomorrow, because science can show that it's been coming up for ~5 billion years. I have no reason to believe that will change, because it hasn't before. That doesn't mean that the Earth won't be hit by a meteorite tonight, stopping it's rotation cold.
My belief, which is based on the firm, real evidence of the Earth's history of constant solar cycles, has no bearing on reality.
A belief is just a best guess based on the evidence. Show me the evidence. Evidence isn't always right, and evidence can prove inconsistent. But if you want me to make a best guess in favor of a belief, you better show me something I can see with my eyes, hear with my ears or touch with my hands. Until then, there is ZERO reason to believe in anything.I understand where you are coming from, Ken.
"Show me don't tell me..."
You'll believe "it" when you see "it" - the evidence - the cold, hard facts.
Living in faith and trusting in what you cannot see, feel, hear and taste are just not part of your physical existence.
And so it is...

Favorite self-tanners?
in New World Women
Posted
the chemicals in self tanners and skin lotions are harmful - toxic even. and this company tests on animals... :(
Mara, you're better off spending 10-15 minutes a day in natural sunlight with no commercial sunscreen on. most you want to build up to without protection is 30 minutes. any longer than that & use a natural sunscreen. absorb that Vitamin D girl! it does a body good - literally!
