| 1206943 | 2011-06-10 21:49:00 | Was Metla found or even spotted on the trip? Apologies for the late reply, though I am sure someone else in this thread has answered some of the questions . Nope, he wasn't spotted at all . :D I noticed you said something about cars coming in the opposite direction . Are you actually allowed to drive against traffic? Assuming you are on a bicycle - right? Whew! That's dangerous - and besides, it's against the law here in the States, you are a vehicle and as such you must obey all vehicular laws too . It was a mostly two-lane road from Napier to Gisborne . As long as there aren't any single or double yellow lines dividing the two lanes, you are allowed to swing out, accelerate, and overtake the car in front of you . Interesting though . 'Patting sheep' must be a thrill for an Upsidedowner - I know it would for me . Wait - you mean 'petting' right? Somehow 'patting' isn't quite the word I'd use . Petting :p :D, though I was reluctant to use the word at first because of the other meaning that I know of . But yeah, "petting" is what I meant . Thanks :) |

| 1206945 | 2011-06-10 21:54:00 | .... And, last but not least, I had been real busy with my assignment (which was due yesterday), which was why it has taken me a few days to reply all the posts here. Back to work now. |

| 1206947 | 2011-06-10 22:11:00 | Mate, you got a problem with my detrusor muscles? :p I purposely explained the reason why I stopped by at Dannevirke using kiwi-styled English just to make it humorous . :D I have been educated today . I had to look up "detrusor": The detrusor muscle is a layer of the urinary bladder wall made of smooth muscle fibers arranged in spiral, longitudinal, and circular bundles . When the bladder is stretched, this signals the parasympathetic nervous system to contract the detrusor muscle . This encourages the bladder to expel urine through the urethra . For the urine to exit the bladder, both the autonomically controlled internal sphincter and the voluntarily controlled external sphincter must be opened . Problems with these muscles can lead to incontinence . If the amount of urine reaches 100% of the urinary bladder's capacity, the voluntary sphincter becomes involuntary, and the urine will be ejected instantly . [citation needed] The urinary bladder usually holds 300-350 ml of urine . As urine accumulates, the rugae flatten and the wall of the bladder thins as it stretches, allowing the bladder to store larger amounts of urine without a significant rise in internal pressure . [3] The urge to urinate usually starts when the bladder reaches around 25% of its working volume . At this stage it is easy for the subject, if desired, to resist the urge to urinate . As the bladder continues to fill, the desire to urinate becomes stronger and harder to ignore . Eventually, the bladder will fill to the point where the urge to urinate becomes overwhelming, and the subject will no longer be able to ignore it . :pf1mobmini: |

And the only parasympathetic reaction I get is when my wife says: "Are you in pain or sumpthin'?" |
