I know what with the whole shower challenge we cant help mentioning it...but it appears to be the only thing being disscussed......this thread will become rather boring...tedious if we dont discuss anything else for as long as the challenge lasts......perhaps someone could suggest some topic of disscussion......

Hey, I resent this!
I regularly shower with almost cold water (our shower has a setting of 10, on which I use 2-3 whereas the others in the household prefer 8/7) so turning it another notch down is not an issue for me at all.
Admittedly, I have been doing this for medical reasons for the past 20 years but the fact still remains that I have no problem with it.

I know I wouldn't.I don't consider myself to be high maintenance... not seriously anyway...but I need my hot water or I'm no good for anything.

Its the fourth day today, and I must admit I miss the warmth of hot showers, but I have another 3 days to go. I can do it...Its only 3 more days...
The side effects arent pleasing either, I have running nose for about an hour or so after I take the shower...
I took my 3rd cold shower yesterday, the last 2 times havent been pleasant but on the last one I had sunburn and it felt very niceI guess one has an advantage in a hot enviroment!
I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book! When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.

I took a cold shower today...well sort of, I was too tired to remember to turn on the heat, and after a freezing douse of water, followed by what others in the house describe as a 'scream', I prefeer manly yelp, I quickly remembered to adjust the temp.

hang in there Maddie, you can do it.
yep, Last, you're right, let's talk about something different.
Well if we are changing the subject a book went through my hands a couple of weeks ago that said men are becoming extinct, the Y gene is weakening and mutating... I was working so I didnt get past the blurb and the pretty pictures but it thought ....

is it because they are dying of chicken-heartedness?Well if we are changing the subject a book went through my hands a couple of weeks ago that said men are becoming extinct, the Y gene is weakening and mutating... I was working so I didnt get past the blurb and the pretty pictures but it thought ....
what's the title of the book?
i heard the same thesis... but i didn't quite get how reproduction will work without men
chicken-heartedness...I think not...if anything is killing us off, its fool-heartedness, with a dash of poor judgementis it because they are dying of chicken-heartedness?

oops, sorry, I meant hypothesis/ theory, not thesis
i heard only men were becoming extinct, but somehow humanity would survive... i can't see how this is supposed to work, though
some incects or thingies can reproduce by giving birth to clones of themselves.. like the young will be an exact genetic copy of the mother. i think the theory i read about says women will develop this ability
People would divide like ameobas?oops, sorry, I meant hypothesis/ theory, not thesis
