    I wish ( although reality is bigger if not always better).

    Actually just a bit sick of the politics and constantly banging my head against a wall to no effect ,except making me noxious and giving me a headache that is.
    What politics?

    Well, here's the deal. I hurt my back some months ago working for a fly-by-nite trucking company. I quit there "abruptly" due to safety issues. My back was functional at that time, so I did not think to complain. BIG mistake, BTW.

    We needed some money right away (things get tight sometimes), so I took the first job that was available to me- unloading trucks for a very recognizable company. I think T. Hanks worked there for a while... Anyway, it did not take much to completely screw up my back. Seriously.

    My first injury was form pulling 2200lb pallets of paper across busted up floor boards in the back of the truck. Tugging and spinal compression, FTW!

    The second injury was from placing hundreds of packages (all shapes and sizes) onto rollers and pushing them to the conveyors. Sideways twisting.

    I found another job quickly, but at that point, I could barely walk. When I went to the chiropractor, he had not seen me in about 4 years- reasonable, because I did not have any problems. However, when he examined me (he was doing the examination; his assistant was writing down the out-of-place vertebrae) he named off about 10 of them before getting upset (I did not even know the guy could get irritated- he's really laid back and relaxed. He told the assistant to stop writing and said, "ALL OF THEM." I saw him for a while (remember our budget was VERY tight) and his adjustments pushed my most severe areas around and did not really do anything. I tried a lot of stuff, including many, many pain killers, stretching, soaking in a spa, inversion, lots of stuff.

    I should probably add that I never filed a Labor and Industries claim (I did not think it was right to pin the injury on the large company, because I knew where my injury occurred, and I had severed ties with the first place "abruptly" without saying anything. I NEVER would have expected this outcome.

    So, here I am months later, my back HAS healed surprisingly well. And I am in school anyway (evening program). I am about 2/3 of the way done with my Master's degree and in March, my wife and I will have twins.

    I will be a stay-at-home dad during the day. And will probably work on a doctorate while I do so. I love the school I am in, and why not keep going, I will have between 3-5 years idle time while I am raising the "kids" anyway. About the time the twins are ready for school, I'll be Dr. megabyteme. Assuming all goes as planned... unno:

    What kinda stuff does your boss make ya do?

    Thanks, Bad-Day!

    Knee pain can be terrible. So is back pain, but I can sympathize with you. I have not had serious injury to my knees, but enough to know that I don't want any more.

    I think the last one to come out would be the youngest since the time of birth is recorded when they are born.

    One of the first things I said to my wife when she told me that we were having twins, "I won't insist on many of our child raising ideas, but I want to raise one as good, the other as evil. We won't force this decision on either of them, but we will simply 'hone' traits that are already present..." True story.

    Ofc, my wife is opposed to my one idea for raising our children.

    It's a safe assumption that the one that looks like you will be the evil one.

    I know it is too early to pick a favorite, but yes. And, somebody has to be a proper mentor...

    Yeah, its normal, when working whit heavy stuff, the knees and the back are the first ones to go.....

    I think youre wrong, i knew a couple ( false twins - boy and girl ) and they always told me the last one to come out is the oldest, ask your doctor, know im curious... ( this is more complicated than what it seams, seriously )

    Anyway, raising an evil kid DDDD LOL

    idoleyes when can i pm you ?????
