So, G, are you double-posting to make up for lost time?
(That is a joking, kidding remark, not meant to offend, in case anyone wonders. See, G has a history of....oh, well, never mind, I'll just get in trouble...)

Hey, kath...you are such a hoot!!
I have MS and use a w/c = electric wheelchair to get around. The "politically correct" term is mobility chair but I just cut that to w/c...sorry. I forgot my audience...LMAO

In reply to Re: YAY!! You're back!! - w/c???????? » syringachalet, posted by kath on January 15, 2003, at 18:22:17
Syringe and Kath--
I kind of liked "witch chair", per Kath's list of possibilities for w/c. :- ) I imagine if I used a w/c, I'd like to call it that from time to time. Kind of has an air of power!
Syringe, I was actually feeling quite proud of myself for figuring out what w/c stand for, having seen an earlier post of yours saying you had MS. You don't mind me patting myself on the back for that, do you?
Interesting how the new term is mobility chair and not wheel chair--it does still have wheels, right? Although maybe it is in anticipation of technology to come in the future that might move beyond wheels?
I imagine that what ever term is used colloquially by the people who use the chairs is probably the best term, unless there is a kind of in-group and out-group language thing. Any thoughts?

Dear Noa,
I am guilty for sometimes forgetting who I am talking to and can really blow it!!
Yes, it still has wheels and its how I get
around and live my life.
That is the reason the people I socialize
with call it MC..mobility chair. Funky,huh?!LOLThis because it has become the just part of
the venicular of those who work with and part of the "handicapped" or now "physically challenged".Once my husband and I went to a church function and this well-meaning lady asked my husband if I needed a glass of punch with a lid or to be fed...
My hubby turned to me and smiled and asked if i needed a a lid for my glass of punch or needed to be fed..
I smiled back and said loud enough for this woman to hear.." No, hun, but it might be a little kinky just to try...you first..." LMAOThat woman was embarassed enough that her actions made it known that I might be a little off from the neck down, but from the neck up Im just a crazy as everyone else!!!
Have a Great Day!!!

I can't blame it on medication either.
These are the kinds of things that kept me from working in the nice normal atmosphere my Dad wanted me too, you know, like being a secretary or something
Much fondness

I thought you'd like to hear about my unique computer skills, Gabbi. I can screw up a program better than anyone I know.
I took a full semester of computer science courses, thinking I might go into that field. I found I'd rather shoot myself in the foot than sit in front of a computer all day. But I did have a unique skill. During practical classes, I'd be constantly calling over the prof or a class-assigned assistant asking for help. They'd start to help, then peer closer at what I'd done & ask "How did you manage to do THAT??!!" I told them if I knew how then I'd fix it myself. I goofed up in ways they'd never seen before.
The amazing thing is the assistant to the head of the computer department asked if I'd like a part-time job acting as class assistant!! I said "With the way I screw up things?" She figured I must be familiar with almost everything that could possibly go wrong. Maybe I was, but it still didn't mean I'd knew how to fix it.
Ah, but at least I don't double post. ^_*
I bet you have a dial-up modem & slow connection & it contributes to your posts getting doubled.

I get that so often Iso M, "How on earth did you do that?" Insert name"______ come over here and look at this, how in the hell did she get it to do that?"Sigh,
But you know, I don't have dial up, I have a good computer, or at least it was a good computer.....
