ravyn1725 So maybe when it finally does come out, it will be just as fantastic as Hitchhiker's Guide is; I hope that you're right! I just hope it doesn't end up a dud, like Eragon (and Paoloni was involved heavily in that). Here's hopin'!

Last week I was planning on being a part of a Trial Drug Study for Milacipran. The study was to see if the drug is effective in raising the pain threshold of Fibro patients (also to become FDA approved). Starting Sunday night I...

I wonder what you all think about a diamond boycott to stop some of the horror in Africa I think if all women and men refused to accept diamond gifts then the diamond industry would have to clean up their act and get serious...

ravyn1725 I think that a boycott might help, but the reality is, the people who buy the largest number of diamonds on a regular basis are not going to participate in the boycott. As long as a diamond means forever, it'll be hard to convince people that they shouldn't...

ravyn1725 I think it might almost be better if the child actors weren't as well known. Sci-Fi movies with big-name stars usually kinda suck. I don't know if it's because the big names make the films more mainstream or what, but look at movies like War of the Worlds, it...

ravyn1725 You should definitely make the trip to the library, Barnes and Noble, or Amazon...all of Card's stuff is worth reading!

ravyn1725 You should definitely read more of Card. He's an incredibly talented writer. I'm excited for the movie to come out (whenever it finally does), but I'm worried that it may be ruined in the transition from print to film, like Eragon. (By the way, was anyone else...

Lately I have been in so much pain that I've had to take half a Darbaset in the daytime, along with my usual muscle relaxer at night. No one understands how much pain I am in and I hate complaining (it doesn't make the pain go...

ravyn1725 Thank you for sharing with me! I have a close friend who was diagnosed with Fibro when she was quite young too--it's more common in older people. Well, my only real update is that the doctor that I'd hoped to see has passed me along to yet another doctor,...

ravyn1725 Thank you so much for your response...We talked a very little bit last night after I opened my stupid mouth, but one of the things that we know is that we can't still be friends like we were. I can't be the one supporting him anymore when I one of the reasons...

My pediatrician advised me to stay away from letting my kids watch Baby Einstein videos because studies have shown that it aids in developing ADD and ADHD. When I asked the reasonings behind this, he told me that it is because the...

ravyn1725 Autism is apparent long before 2 years of age in most children. I care for two siblings who are autistic, one very severely so. These children watch the Baby Einstein videos, but are not hooked to them. Because of these videos (and of course time spent with...

Parents, start doing your job! Everytime I turn around today, someone is trying to have something banned, something regulated, someone sued, or someone blamed. Parents: if you don't like your children watching violent television...

My mom and I have been at war over my dogs since the day I got them. I moved out of my mother's house and into my own apartment BEFORE I even thought about getting a dog. After my boyfriend (now husband) and I got settled into the...

ravyn1725 It's obvious that you and your husband and children love animals--that's awesome! I can somewhat sympathize with you on mom not liking pets: After I moved out, my boyfriend got me a ferret (I fell in love with his two and just had to have my own little fuzzy!)...

ravyn1725 I would have to say that finding the Ender's group on MyLot has prompted me to go a on a Card book-buying spree on Amazon and Half.com. So you would recommend everything that you've read? I've read Songmaster, Pastwatch, and Enchantment, and all were...

I've had several security blankets, from stuffed toys to other things, but I haven't got one that's constantly been with me to turn on for security. How 'bout you?

ravyn1725 Ironically enough, I just got my Valentine's present today (I know it's early): a pair of diamond earrings, and he was telling me that he'd wanted to get a little bear and put the earrings in its ears. ::grins::

ravyn1725 I'm checking out that site now...thanks! I agree with what you said about Ender's Game/Ender's Shadow...Have you read Orson Scott Card's other books? I've tried to read everything o his that I could get my hands on after I read Ender's Game. I'm hooked!
