I'm trying to find some really good phone / tablet games, a C5 can play. I know 
not all C5s are equal and we all like different types of games, but just 
looking for ones I haven't tried yet.
 
I play with a stylus strapped between my fingers, 1 hand. I can't reach good 
enough to use 2 hands at once.
 
I like games you can play others on-line, but there are great games you don't. 
Below are my favorite, * are on-line 2 player games.
 
*8 Ball Pool
*Soccer Stars
*BasketBall Stars
*WGT World Golf Tour Mobile Game
 
Hill Clim Racer
Saduko

I had terrible flaking and itching from my scalp for years until I switched to 
TGEL shampoo. Expensive but store brand alternatives work just as well.



Our skin does not have 'oils' secreeted from the organ. Just as most of us 
don't sweat. Still, I enjoy getting my head scratched every night before I go 
down.

Re: [QUAD-L] Cold Weather

Wow Greg,

I don't post much, but after reading your post i felt like I was ready my own 
story.  I too am addicted to the sun.  I'm in VA and hating the weather right 
now. During the winter i sit in front of a heater fan all day and night.  When 
spring and summer arrives, I'm on the deck all day soaking it in.  It's like a 
drug being absorbed trough our skin. :-).   I bet AZ is heaven right now.

I don't know how you cold wether guys can do it every day.
I was from Seattle and that was bad enough. Now I'm spoiled in AZ.
Even our cold times it's usually sunny. But, now and then we get a few rainy 
days.
I get so tight, sore, and cold, on those days and my arms tingle 100x worse.
I'm wrapped up and no matter how warm I get, I just can not relax unless I get 
sun.
I think I'm physically and mentally addicted to the sun.
During the day, on the times I'm not outside, I have a hard time doing anything 
for too long without having to go out and sit in it for at least a little 
while. 
It relaxes my muscles and I feel a lot better, then I go back to whatever I was 
doing. Then just before sunset I have to go out and get my last fix of sun for 
the night. It works so much better than any pain killer or muscle relaxer 
medication.

Just don't think I could ever move away,
Greg

Gentlemen of the quad list take note. For those of us capable of self 
exercising one's own luv stick I make this suggestion to you. Exercise it often 
or you will lose girth and length over time. Be cautious of not causing 
disroflexia. If your not all ready in a relationship you may be at some point 
and will want easy erections and the fullest possible size. Also if your 
wearing a external cath. and lose to much girth you may have a hard time 
finding a cath. size that fits. So stroke on my friends.

To state the obvious: It's easy to say don't take meds when you are not the one 
suffering. We have cold sweats, clammy and miserable, not heat sweat like a 
runner might have. We freeze and then start tightening our neck and shoulders 
into a knot of pain that further increases the misery. I can't count the days I 
have sat with a hair dryer blowing on my face and neck. It really angers me 
when doctors say the equivalent of Take an aspirin and call me in the 
morning. Quality of life means something, and a life of constant misery is not 
one of quality. Sorry for the rant.

Wow, she must be the wisest person alive to know something like that. Of   
course, many of us would rather take Aleve than narcotics. Hell, one or two of  
 us would even consider going without pain for a few days. To make such a pat   
statement without at least discussing the increase in pain and how it is   
effecting your life is irresponsible.
  
 
  
I hate that, when a doctor makes you feel like an addict, but when I feel   
unjustly ashamed of my pain med requests I remember what one of my Craig   
nurses said when I backed off the meds at a time when I really needed them,   
for fear of the harm they could do to my body. She said, make note of ALL the  
 symptoms that go along with your pain- is your heart working harder? Are you   
losing sleep? Are you able to eat normally? Do you tense up and create more   
pain? (She was referring to my frozen shoulder) She pointed out that if the   
answer to most of these questions was yes, then the pain medicine should be   
taken because overall, it would do more good than bad.

Re: [QUAD-L] urodynamics

[airgantone]

 Hey John, 

I'm a C5, I wear an external condom also.  For 12 years now.   I've had the 
urodynamics test done once, around 7 or 8 years ago.  My results were good, ie. 
no backflow.  Over the 12 years, I've had only 2 UTI's.  All I drink is water 
and a cup of OJ every now and then.  I'm voiding great.  My Uro wants to do a 
renogram, renoscan, and the urodynamics test again.  I'm kinda against these 
invasive procedures, especially when I'm fine.  
How often do you have these tests done?  What were your test result that they 
said you couldn't wear a condom cath?  Do you know when kick -off?  If so, how? 
 Also do you have that electric pulse system?

Subject: Re: [QUAD-L] urodynamics











It is a test to see how much force your bladder contracts with and how much 
volume your bladder will accept before it contracts and voids. The complete 
test can also show if you have backflow to your kidneys. Tiny valves in your 
ureters can be forced to backflow when your bladder overfills and fails to void 
or spasms and your urethral sphincter fails to open and the contraction sends 
urine backwards into your kidneys. In these situatons they may wish to 
eliminate all backpressure by changing you to an SP or an indwelling cath.


This gives them hard data numbers so they can say you would be better off with 
an SP. There is no cost savings. In fact, this data is more for their studies 
than for you. Your pretty much a guinea pig on this one. 


According to my test results I can't wear a condom cath but I have done it for 
22 years without catheterization for the past 15 years


There is a system that will induce a series of strong bladder spasms with a 
simple mild electric pulse that you control. This system also builds your 
bladder muscles so they no longer need the pulse. It is on the web someplace 
but I can't seem to fnd it this moment. It can ruin your ureter valves as well 
if your sphincter won't open.


In some cases people choose to remove the sphincter and it just drips as your 
bladder fills. 


 


The doctor should tell you what he is looking for before the test and what 
outcome he/she would like.


 


Best Wishes,


john

2. Demand Is DOWN, Yet Prices Are UP
 
Just so we can all get on the same page, here are the verifiable facts on 
oil 
  supplies, production, and gasoline demand. 
In January of this year, the U.S. used 4%
 less petroleum than we did a year 
  ago. (Oil demand was down 3.2% in February.) Furthermore, demand has been 
  falling slowly since July of last year. Ronald Bailey of Reason Online has 
  pointed out that worldwide production of oil has risen 2.5% in the first 
  quarter, while worldwide demand has grown by only 2%.  Production is expected 
  to increase by 3.3% in the second quarter, and by as much as 4.1% by the 
third   
  quarter. The net result is that the U.S. daily buffer for oil production 
  against demand, which was a paltry 1.5 million barrels as recently as 2005, 
is 
  now up to 3 million barrels in excess capacity today.

There are some things that you don't day on Television, Cable or 
Camera.? Could you imagine someone saying an equal slur about their mate or 
spouse, just to get a laugh at their expense.? It is not right 
anywhere.

I don't know if this was a ratings stunt or just an 
  idiot but he explained it was ok for him to call them retards because of 
all 
  the work he does with them.

  
So I stopped watching besides it seems like a 
  stupid season for Big Brother.

? Hey, Paul.

saying I have to send my van down to them.? Which is another issue in itself.? 
Plus it cost an arm and leg.

 my response:?

Hello,?

?

In the car business you have ford, chevy, ford, 
dodge...toyotawhich are known manufacturers that have proven 
technology and any mechanic works on these. The you have saab, audi, 
volvo, scion, saturn, fiat, mercedesthese car may be decent but 
you cant get parts very easy and when u do its crazy high priced.?

?

?

The wheelchair business is the same you got invacare, quickie, 
tilite...then you got the unknowns ibot, permobile and several more.?

?

When you buy a car or wheelchair you have to think about can i get parts 
for this chair, how easy, how much, from which vendor.?

?

Quickie is the most proven, known, trusted manufacturerparts are 
plentifulanyone works on them.?

?

I would never subject myself to the hell that buying an unknown is going 
to be...the ibot is cool to watch but too much technology to keep 
going in everyday life and come on are u really going up thirty stairs 
with it.i think if you went up the thirty stairs 5 times a day you 
would have a broken chair and a couple broken legs.?

[QUAD-L] Warning.....Sexual.

[airgantone]

Hello guys,

Let me get right to it.? This morning I was in the middle of the most erotic 
dream I have ever had since my injury when I was awaken just at the moment we 
long to remember (the big orgasm).? This dream felt s real that when I woke 
up I felt just (well, pretty darn close) like I had a real orgasm, tingling all 
over and my insides were too.? You know that feeling after you cum and you're 
so sensitive that you just can't take another touch. That! ? I think I was 
moaning just before I woke up also, because I opened my eyes thinking 'oh shit 
did my wife just hear me.? 
I know they say your brain is the most powerful sex organ but damn, I wasn't 
expecting it to be like that.
My question is have any of you ever experience this and if so how can you 
recreate it?

Larry, C5

Re: [QUAD-L] Supplemental Security Income

[airgantone]

 Would you happen to know of any attorneys that I can speak with that are 
familiar with this, because all those that I spoke with here in Richmond, VA 
are not aware that this can be done.

Thx

Dear Larry,


Just between you and me and santa, I think there is a way to have your wifes 
pay put into a trust. The trust is run by her and has a stated objective (such 
as keeping the two of you from poverty). You need a lawyer to help you set it 
up. Your wife would be the CEO of the trust and you could be named treasurer. 
It sounds complicated but esentially you put all you have into this trust. the 
trust becomes responsible for maintaining a satisfactory means for living for 
both of you. What is cool is it sidesteps a lot of taxes and it rents your home 
to you while it pays the mortgage. Wealthy people all live through trusts. In 
some states lawyers can turn you into a certified charity. Anything you pay the 
lawyer is a tax write off and is paid by the trust which files its own taxes.

[QUAD-L] Vacation is Over, Mr. Bush

[airgantone]

Friday, September 2nd, 2005

Dear Mr. Bush:

Any idea where all our helicopters are? It's Day 5 of Hurricane Katrina and 
thousands remain stranded in New Orleans and need to be airlifted. Where on 
earth could you have misplaced all our military choppers? Do you need help 
finding them? I once lost my car in a Sears parking lot. Man, was that a drag.

Also, any idea where all our national guard soldiers are? We could really use 
them right now for the type of thing they signed up to do like helping with 
national disasters. How come they weren't there to begin with?

Last Thursday I was in south Florida and sat outside while the eye of Hurricane 
Katrina passed over my head. It was only a Category 1 then but it was pretty 
nasty. Eleven people died and, as of today, there were still homes without 
power. That night the weatherman said this storm was on its way to New Orleans. 
That was Thursday! Did anybody tell you? I know you didn't want to interrupt 
your vacation and I know how you don't like to get bad news. Plus, you had 
fundraisers to go to and mothers of dead soldiers to ignore and smear. You sure 
showed her!

I especially like how, the day after the hurricane, instead of flying to 
Louisiana, you flew to San Diego to party with your business peeps. Don't let 
people criticize you for this -- after all, the hurricane was over and what the 
heck could you do, put your finger in the dike?

And don't listen to those who, in the coming days, will reveal how you 
specifically reduced the Army Corps of Engineers' budget for New Orleans this 
summer for the third year in a row. You just tell them that even if you hadn't 
cut the money to fix those levees, there weren't going to be any Army engineers 
to fix them anyway because you had a much more important construction job for 
them -- BUILDING DEMOCRACY IN IRAQ!

On Day 3, when you finally left your vacation home, I have to say I was moved 
by how you had your Air Force One pilot descend from the clouds as you flew 
over New Orleans so you could catch a quick look of the disaster. Hey, I know 
you couldn't stop and grab a bullhorn and stand on some rubble and act like a 
commander in chief. Been there done that.

There will be those who will try to politicize this tragedy and try to use it 
against you. Just have your people keep pointing that out. Respond to nothing. 
Even those pesky scientists who predicted this would happen because the water 
in the Gulf of Mexico is getting hotter and hotter making a storm like this 
inevitable. Ignore them and all their global warming Chicken Littles. There is 
nothing unusual about a hurricane that was so wide it would be like having one 
F-4 tornado that stretched from New York to Cleveland.

No, Mr. Bush, you just stay the course. It's not your fault that 30 percent of 
New Orleans lives in poverty or that tens of thousands had no transportation to 
get out of town. C'mon, they're black! I mean, it's not like this happened to 
Kennebunkport. Can you imagine leaving white people on their roofs for five 
days? Don't make me laugh! Race has nothing -- NOTHING -- to do with this!

You hang in there, Mr. Bush. Just try to find a few of our Army helicopters and 
send them there. Pretend the people of New Orleans and the Gulf Coast a
WW Recipesre near Tikrit. 

Yours,

Michael Moore

[QUAD-L] Ready to have kids/ options besides IVF

[airgantone]

Hello guys, I'm 29, a C5 quad for almost 9 years.  My wife and I have been 
married for 5 of those years and we're ready for the rugrats.  I'm able to get 
and sustain an erection, but was only able to ejaculate once (at least we 
thought I did, because I got the urge to pea, then my body locked up, then 
started to spasm).  I know IVF is an option, but who wants to put out that much 
money.  Have any of you been or know of some who have been successful with 
electroejaculation and IUI(intrauterine insemination)? Or any of the other 
options for retrieving sperm and getting pregnant?

Thanks, 
Joone/ airgantone
