Thanks for the clarification Blackadder.  I did have thoughts of a wart starving for air at the bottom of my foot - perhaps that imagery helped get rid of the sucker.

Here's a tip from my doctor for anyone that has warts.  Once the wart is treated by the doctor, put some duct tape over the area,  instead of a bandage or leaving it open to the air.  This basically starves the wart of oxygen and cuts down the number of times you have to have it frozen. ...

Both mine and my husband's have been stolen in the last 3 weeks.  We take ours off going through the car wash, so I am pretty sure they were pilfered. Hey muffin, how did you get one with your soldier on it?  I'd love to have one of our daugther, although I'll tape it to the inside of my rear...

Just got back from my middle daughter's wedding shower.  It will soon be 2 down and 1 to go.... and the 1 to go is the military girl!  Thank goodness she has a boyfriend back home because I bet it would be easy for her to find a suitable prospect among all the handsome men in the CF.

The story is pretty vague as to why management freaked out.  I could understand the concern if the employee handed a timbit to a kid WITHOUT a parent's approval.  Considering the seriousness of allergies today, especially peanuts, handing food to a kid without a parent saying yay or nay is...

Engineer's Wife, I'm on the other side of the country, but will be thinking about Cpl Starker at said time.  Say a little prayer for me.

Thanks Vern.  I will pass this information along so that she makes a point of approaching supply in Borden.  I know she has small feet, but I figured it was just a matter of all the small sizes being gone (it happens a lot to her in shoe stores). I owe you one....correction....SHE owes you...

Thanks Vern, that's much appreciated.... AND the comment about Mom's rights!  I will pass along any info to her, but as you probably know THAT will have to be handled delicately so as not to alert her "Mother's being a PITA senses". One Mom to Another.  :)

Vern, I have a question for you. My daughter is currently wearing size 21588 boots.  They are too big on her (supply told her they were the smallest) but she's muddled through her BMQ in them with extra socks.  Is that size the smallest made, or could it be just the smallest left in the St...

Way to go Urban!  It's all in the presenting of the question... kind of like how you can use statistics to any advantage.

This thread made me think of this math problem my mother used to tell. A man shows up a motel on a cold rainy night and manages to get the last vacant room.  He pays $10.00 (we can only dream) and goes up to his room.  Another traveller shows up and the manager tells him there are no rooms...

On the T4 where it says "Other Information" (see the back) is there not a Box Number indicated right next to it?  It would be before the amount.  The box number indicated would give you an idea of whether or not you need to claim it and where.  Once you know the box number it refers to then you...

poutinelover, If your family/friends really have your best interests at heart they will come around.  Knowledge is the best way to change someone's mind.  I know, I was one of those people who freaked when her child said they were joining the military.  Not because I don't respect every member...

Or better yet, instead of having extra tax deducted at source set up an automatic RRSP plan with monthly deduction through your bank.  Even if you only have $50.00 taken per month, that adds up to $600.00 in year that is earning interest for you, and is a legitimate tax deduction.  So come tax...

You crack me up!!! :rofl:

Don't forget this.....  (thanks Vern)

:rofl: He used to work on buses!  Mighty big spark plugs.   ;D

Okay this is for the brave gentlemen reading the thread.  Sometimes we are visited by our monthly without warning.  If you notice that the print on the CADPAT pants (is that right Vern?  I'm a civilian) includes a red blotch, take the initiative and let the woman know.  Please.  Women are good...

Engineers Wife, if you figure that out you'll be the richest woman alive!

23 weeks!!?  Holy moly. I know you said in a previous post that you bled through your pregnancy, but you didn't have any signs?  I think I felt the first movement at about 20 weeks.  I actually really enjoyed being pregnant.  Never had morning sickness, no aches, pains or other complaints.  Any...
