Meh, me too. If I start losing I can always talk about my 3 hours of driving a day to get the kids to school and stuff related to my Autistic son.
I'm in. Now what do I do?You too?
It's amazing, since we got our son's diagnosis, how many people I know have a child or relative with a similar condition. Maybe I just keep my ears open and notice it more.What would be the fantasy world parallel of laying bathroom floor tiles? I've cut round the crapper and everything.
I suspect alot of it has to do with environmental issues. We are eating fruits and veggies that are liberally coated with pesticides (estimates say that if you are a normal eater and get tested right now you will have between 10 and 20 different pesticides in your system), our waters are chlorinated to an extreme, vaccines contain aluminum, formaldehyde(why would a doctor inject this into a baby?), human serum albumin, gelatin, antibiotics and yeast proteins (not that I am saying that is the issue) and we are poisoning ourselves and our world. A higher percentage of kids are being diagnosed with autism every year and nobody knows with any certainty what is to blame or what the many things are that are causing this increase.
Does your kid have very loose stools? Rashes on his butt or torso? Prone to earaches or infections? He could have a yeast imbalance in his intestinal tract that is causing a lot of bad stuff to stick around his system and effect his brain. The Yeast takes up the space that probiotics (bacteria in your digestive tract that helps breakdown and neutralize the bad stuff) are supposed to take up causing the body to not be able to remove the bad stuff or process the good stuff well. I am currently trying to remove the yeast from my son's system with some healthy eating and such and I have seen some major change in his stool and a fairly marked increase in his communicative skills.Not saying that any of this stuff will 'cure' anyone, but some have seen some pretty remarkable turnarounds, and I am trying anything I can that doesn't endanger my kid.
If you want to talk offline you can E-mail me at falsehealer at yahoo dot com and we can share some info and stuff.
I love how the man asking if it was necessary joined our group
Necessary for testing... always interested in the technical implementation of new web apps.
AND AFTER TESTING I COULDN'T SEE HOW TO UNJOIN! BAH!
I could retire your character if you don't want to participate.I love how the man asking if it was necessary joined our groupNecessary for testing... always interested in the technical implementation of new web apps.

In all seriousness, once you guys actually got into it, I wanted to see how it works. I won't be logging into from now on, so feel free to retire me.
Hope you guys like it. :)
And a potion of heroism no doubt. "CHARGE!" :)How does one heroically clean the toilet?After drinking a potion of Reduce Person.
<splosh>
I'm not going in there unless the cleric casts Resistance on me and I know he's got a Remove Disease for each one of us.
I love this, despite my early disapproval.

See it's lame, but you do actually start getting caught up in the competition of it, right now fakey has a huge lead so when I get off of work I'm going to litterally go down the line doing all the chores. I'll catch up and my house will get better for it. How can you not love it?

Good luck noob! I am a housecleaning god!!!
;PActually today looks to be pretty light for me so you might have a good chance to get a leg up on me. I'm at the Apple store right now test-driving an I-Mac and then I gotta go get some new jeans.
Have fun and congrats to everyone for getting into the cleaning mode.

you may be all about the housecleaning, but as long as they keep giving experiance for reading, preparing games and making my bed, I think i'll come out on top!
Heck, I spend at least 90 minutes a day reading and an hour on game design and adventure/campaign writing. I get those by default.
*insert maniacal laugh*

Could we have more adventures for those of us with kids?
Getting them fed, washed and dressed in the morning is a huge PITA that eats an hour a day, and getting them ready for bed is almost as bad.If I have to read 'The f&*%ing Gruffalo' once more, I'll scream.
They're allready there, getting them fed is covered by the cooking in the kitchen for your mates adventure. I'll work something up for getting them ready for school, but I'm trying to keep it to adventures any of us can partake in, you make one for people with kids and then that screws over those of us without them. So I'll think of something just keep in mind it won't specifically refrence children

Just remember that 90 minutes of reading doesn't mean you can claim the knowledge adventure three times. ;)

OK, just had to read 'The Gruffalo' again.
I feel as if it's an iconic creature now, like the Owlbear.
Anyone want to rustle up some stats for one?
But who is this creature with terrible claws,
And terrible teeth in its terrible jaws?
It has knobbly knees and turned-out toes,
And a poisonous wart on the end of its nose.
Its eyes are orange, its tongue is black,
It has purple prickles all over its back!
Oh, help!
Oh, no!
It's a GRUFFALO!

Are you sure you put this in the right thread? lol I'll take a look at statting it up when I have some free time. I'll count it as Prepping the adventure.

Gah, despite a promising beginning, there's no way I can keep up with Fakey (i think it's him. I'm too lazy to click the bookmark to open the page). Kinda sucks that I don't have a significant other to take out, or a loved one here to show appreciation towards, or a car to take people for rides in, or people to cook for, and absolutely no inclination (what with being by myslef) to try anything new...yup, all by my lonesome. I also don't have a lawn to mow...

Oh sure, it sounds tempting, and you may think you're "free" at the beginning, but pretty soon you end up chatting with the shadows on your wall and hanging out at the second cup desperate for someone, anyone, to just talk to you. you'll start approching random strangers with questions concering the tectonic geography of the imaginary world you're designing to keep yourself busy. and all your money will be spent on diversions like comics and movies, because you're just so lonely. trust me. not as fun as it sounds. at least if i had friends or family around I'd have someone to talk/argue/fight with. something to provide a diversion, and if I had a car I'd be able to at least go out every so often.

Been there. Still doing that. I have a few friends here but hardly get to see them. *sigh*
On the other hand after dealing with screaming customers all day it's nice to come home to a quiet house. Hey, can we claim the customer service chore if we're on the other side of the counter and didn't yell at our customers? Trust me - some people just shouldn't be allowed out in public.

Only if you are doing it on your off time, I agree with you completely, but if we can claim chores from our job, I'm gonna top out Fake Healer, I'm a full time parts manager (I speak with customer service almost daily) and a part time custodian (I clean the place up for overtime hours) so I think it's best to leave it non-job related stuff. I don't know, I've gotten ahead of him before, I can do it again.

Oh, I was joking, believe me. It does give me a good perspective when dealing with other people's customer service, I know that.
You'll get there. I have faith. It's been fun watching you, Fakey, and Kessukoofah in the big three.
