Geeze Newman, after reading alot of the posts here...I dont think you have that many flaws...give your self a break...we all have flaws...some cover them up or hide their true feelings, You dont. I like that in a person, I like that in you, and many others that speak from their heart. Im not much for sugar coating.. Also just thinking here, I doubt that Newman needs a Light, He jogs, works outside much of the day, and dosent sound to me like someone that never goes outdoors in the good ole natural sunlight.. But I could be wrong. I have heard about the light theripy though and that its been very effective with many people...

I know it's probably hard to believe that someone with my sunny disposition and positive outlook would feel this way, but I love the shorter days and dark dreary days. Stormy weather is my favorite and I even get a little sad when the sun comes out. What I find odd is that as a child I was so terrified of storms that I would get physically ill.

Oh Native, not wierd at all. I am the same way. I love winter, and every thing that goes with it.. Im actually more active in the colder weather then the heat of summer... I was never terrified of storms though, have allways loved thunder and lightning and all that stuff..

I love the winter too (despite my curiosity about the lights). I like the snow and winter sports and activities.

i don't get SAD or depressed in the winter. i always get depressed in the summer. and, i think it's because i'm sensitive to heat and feel like i'm trapped indoors. it's the only time i have ever taken antidepressants.

I'm going to check out those lightbulbs, Ladytex.. Certainly could be a help on days I don't wander outside. I swear, I just "nest". Like this morning I was in bed and "cleaning up" the DVR upstairs, watching recorded shows about climbing Mt Everest. And Zmom called me, which resulted in me getting a great shower and getting outside with them for awhile.. nice day, too!

I'm another winter lover. A weird side of me enjoys the dark (though not driving home from work in it!) Autumn is my favorite time though. I'd prefer light sweater weather all year long. But I will keep all the seasons....I'd miss them if they went away.

Newman, I don't think you are any more flawed than I am (or most people I know). I'm not sure I've ever met the perfect person yet. And I can say with authority that I'm quite flawed.

Without correct lighting, reptiles develop vitamin deficiencies and skin and bone problems. Anyone keeping one indoors as a pet needs to supply full spectrum lighting. I bought a full spectrum floor lamp for myself but didn't like it. I use it as a plant light now.

I never realized how much I loved and would miss thunder and lightning until I moved from FL to NY. We don't get much of it here and I really do miss it. Fortunately for me I don't have SAD. But we have a friend who is clinically depressed and has a light box. She says it really helps her and it was actually prescribed by her shrink and paid for by her insurance.

One think I know for sure is I did not evolve from a reptile. I evolved from a party animal.

Not much thunder or lightening here either, Twinkie, and I miss it too. The south gets awesome thunderstorms.

Oh, yeah! That's true, Seamonkey. My ancestor party animals were not Geckos though. The Gecko is more of a lounge lizard.

AFLAC Insurance Fraud!


Seems there was a complaint the other day about a scam that AFLAC was taking advantage of women on the street and stealing their money.

Now we all at one time thought an INSURANCE Company has stolen from us, however this scam is netting COLD HARD CASH from unsuspecting individuals.

The way it works is the thief uses children to distract the target. While admiring the cuteness of the kids they are robbed of their cash and never know what hit them.

I'm sending this out for all to be aware that this is happening and it's right out on the streets where the general public is.

A passerby with a digital camera phone happened to capture the photo below.

Review it carefully and use caution when distractions like this come along.

Good Luck.

Don't say you weren't warned.

LOL Chili!

Y'all are a bunch of silly coconuts! :-)

I'm like Yessie, Autumn is my favourite season. Spring is the second one. I suppose summer next then winter.

I am just crazy for Autumn breezes and the wonderful splash of Fall colours. (Well I'm crazy in all seasons, but that's another story. LOL)

In the spring the pollen makes my allergies go berserk. (I'm berserk during all seasons, but that's another story!) j/k

Summer heatwaves make me nutsier than I already am, and Winter snowstorms and icestorms are treacherous and no fun. (And regardless of how nutsy, crazy, or berserk I am, I am always game for fun!)

We had to send out the AFLAC duck for more funds. Afterall, party animals need money too. Those parties are expensive.

I'm looking for a light today, Dogdoc. I know when I used to do color analysis I had to use full spectrum lighting to get accurate results.
