Ummmm, no, lol, I actually have that condition and it's not alot of fun! Mine actually is more like having a Cicada living in my right ear. :ohmy: For the most part I got used to it, but there are days, especially when really stressed it gets very loud and I can't hear the real Cicada's due to it. :?:

What this has to do with Mr. Wiki I have no idea, but did you ever have an earwig in your ear? Now that's a bummer.:blink:

He's referring to the original post of his that I was referring to...the one where he said something about your post referring to ringing in the ears being called 'tinnitus'. :blink:

um nope. where be the Queen of the thread, i wonder?



would you like some links?

LHO was a CIA n00b who became an FBI informant. likely TSD shooters were David Morales and Mac Wallace, w/others at other locations.

Thanks for the offer! I think I've read/watched just about everything on JFK. I even did a term paper on the Warren Report in college. I tend towards conspiracy theories. :D

Nope, thankfully, but I have killed quite a few of them and they stink when you crush them, like stink bugs.

As for the Mr. Wiki bit, Roonies asked if it was ok to start calling me Mr. Wiki after I made the comment about Tinnitus... oh nevermind. lmao :facepalm:

I should have read ahead as then I wouldn't have posted what I just did, but thank you for trying to explain that to him. :D

And I am now realizing that my post didn't actually even answer his question! I was just talking about how you always know something about every subject and are so good at posting concise explanations for us.....kind of like a human wiki. it's a good thing. :)

OMG you guys, this butterscotch smells so good. Tastes OK but it's only been steeping just under 4 days (5 hours of which was USC), I'm sure it's gonna really pop in a few more days (if I have any left by then). I also mixed up some Chai Tea at the same time (also same USC bath). I think it tastes more like an authentic black tea than anything I've tried from MBV. Not getting the Chai spices very strongly, but they're there. Still doing 6mg 50/50 12.5% single flavors in 2ml batches til I've tried everything on hand, but I still have a dozen flavors to test!

I've almost finished off the Strawberry Shortcake I got as my free sample with my last order. I gotta say, if I could only vape one flavor for the rest of my life, it might well have to be that one. Wish it came as flavoring. Gonna have to order a big bottle on Black Friday. Maybe some more Blue Moo, too. :)

Well, I like learning and if there is something I don't know and have any interest in it, I will research it, I've always been that way, it's gotten me in trouble a number of times both at home and in school especially science class... :2cool::p:facepalm:

Thanks for the offer! I think I've read/watched just about everything on JFK. I even did a term paper on the Warren Report in college. I tend towards conspiracy theories. :D

I have a copy of the Warren Report in my bookcase, a metal bust of JFK on my wall, and a few bookshelves worth of Kennedy books and paraphernalia. I think in my case, being obsessed with all things Kennedy (the good and the bad) is a genetic predisposition - my grandfather, who died when mom was 14 and who was a *very* lapsed Catholic, was nonetheless thrilled when Kennedy was elected, and I'd probably heard mom's "the night Kennedy was elected" story and her "where she was when she heard Kennedy was shot" story a hundred times before I hit elementary school.

When I became a convention delegate in 08, mom's first question was "Did you get to meet Teddy?!" (No, I didn't - we didn't know it at the time, but it came out later that Teddy had flown to Denver, gone straight into the hospital, straight from the hospital to the convention center, gave his speech, and then went straight *back* to the hospital.) But getting to see him speak, right in front of me, was amazing... and of course, they played a 15 minute film with Jack, Bobby and Teddy right before his speech, and everyone knew Teddy's time was short, so we were all in floods of tears before he even took the stage. I don't know what it is about them - God knows *none* of them were perfect, not by a long shot - but I've heard a lot of speeches, and there's never been anything that quite touched that moment for sheer emotional impact. I know quite a lot of the "famous Kennedy speeches" by heart because when I was a kid, mom was afraid my brain would rot over the summer if she didn't give me something to do... so it was Patrick Henry, Gettysburg Address, "Ask not what your country can do for you," etc etc.

Combine that with being in a roomful of nerds raised similarly, all of whom knew we were more than likely watching Ted Kennedy's last speech, and when he went off script to finish with, "the work goes on, the cause endures, the hope still lives," we were all reciting it with him, and then he changed the last bit to "and the dream lives on," and there wasn't a dry eye in the house.

... and that's the closest *I'll* ever get to having "where I was when" type Kennedy story, but that's okay. It's closer than I ever thought I'd get when I was memorizing speeches. :)

(if this is too political for this thread, I'm happy to delete. Don't mean to cause trouble.)
