Hmmm, when I was thirteen I had a kind of a funny spell in History class. Maybe that's a symptom. No one noticed I was gone....

Wouldn't that be interesting, if we could locate the exact part of the brain that regulates our attractions? I'm sure scientists have a general idea at this point. I wonder if devs were tested, whether it would be the same or different parts of our brain activating when we feel attraction from the control group? It´s in our genes. It must be. Where else would it come from? Desensitisation-annoyance coined by Sugababes: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Ryr3JXcpeo&feature=related [/youtube] |

Ruth, go hang out with Zgal... she can provide the horse to get tossed from... that's how I did got mine. LOL!!! I can indeed... There's the "Dev Maker"!  I fell out of a tree when I was 5 and landed on my head... hmmmm.... I do have access to an MRI machine, next time we're running a trial, I'll have them check out my brain! ;D |

Ok, I'm beginning to think there's a dev -horse link as well;) I grew up riding and showed hunters nationally as a teenager. Many spills, especially Christopher Reeve style where I flew over the fence but the horse did not.
Actually, it was a "hole in the head" that made me stop riding. Due to a malformation found on an MRI I was banned from riding, bungee-jumping, and going on roller-coasters. Only miss one of those.. but recently have started teaching riding again so I can get my horse fix!
(and totally unrelated.. in the last couple weeks I have been at two different neurosurgeons offices and seen a wheeler at both. You single girls need to start hanging out in waiting rooms;) Seemed like prime hunting grounds! LOL!

I've never been interested in horses. I remember when all the girls in my school went horse crazy and I just couldn't see it.
I've been seriously considering hanging out in doctor's waiting rooms. Then I start thinking, that feels really pathetic! lol.

What a beautiful horse ... err, dev-maker . Is it a stallion by any chance? No, thank god! She's a mare - but unfortunately, she's number three in the pecking order, which means she can be a BITCH sometimes!!!  lucretia, be as you are - Yay! More horsey people! I grew up riding bareback on backyard ponies, then got drawn into the hunter scene. The horse I had in highschool had a nasty stop-dead-then-180 maneuver that got me every time - I haven't fallen off of Call Girl (the mare in the picture) yet though... That has to be rough not riding anymore. I got hurt pretty bad a few years ago and couldn't ride for over a year, and it felt like a piece of me was missing. I work in a medical complex and never see anything but hospital wheelchairs!!!  I guess that's better than nothing, but it's kind of like being a car person surrounded by minivans. |

I actually have a HOLE in my head! Basically where my lambda is I have a place in my skull about the size of the palm of my hand which looks like it was caved in. Actually I had a cyst (which they thought was a tumor) removed surgically when I was small before the sutures had closed and I didn't have any skull in the region for a long time. When I was 9 I had a chair in a classroom fall off the desk and one of the metal legs smacked me pretty good, literally in the brain. Sometime between 15 and 17 it finally fused. I've had plenty of MRIs and CAT scans, and there is some damage, but the neurologists I've been evaluated by seem to think that the damage has been there longer than the hole in my head! I have problems with my ANS and mild CP, but nobody ever noticed until I started having other medical problems and loss the muscle mass I had built to compensate. I also have difficulties with certain types of math related processing tasks. Never thought liking AB men was stored next to math in my mind though!

I don't know how I got credit for this theory and barely remember the conversation. As my name has been used I will say that :
a) When did I hit my head???
b) What's my name???
c) When did I hit my head???
That's pretty much it from neffie. I know I hit it at some point and on several ocassions but it's not got anything to do with being a dev.
Could a head injury put you off AB guys? Sure, why not? I don't have scientific proof of that but from this thread alone I can say at least 7 in 10 women on here have suffered some sort of head trauma.
LMFAO that's so funny!!!!

My mom's side of the family were the horse-people.... but she'd fallen off a horse as a child and refused to go near them. We'd rope in the pasture, practice barrel racing, and just raise hell on horses. It was like coming home to play with your dog. We'd get off the bus, drop our stuff in the house, and then head out to the horses. :-) One of my favorite childhood moments was watching my new foal get born. I'm jealous!! I had a horse on a family friend's property when I was in highschool... the barn was closer to school than home, so I'd drop by on my way home (in my Florida "uniform" of flip flops and skirt!) and play tag with my horse in the pasture... One of my all time favorite summer memories is riding bareback through the sprinklers in a swimsuit!!! Though that invariably ended in my horse going down to roll... If anyone wants a dev "boost", feel free to drop by VA, I'll introduce you to Call Girl! Seriously though, all devs should have to wear helmets at all times until age 10 apparently. Or possibly into our adult years for some of us... |
