Good to hear a success story. Wife of my friend has been hit hard by MS. Needs a cane or walker around the house and sometimes a wheelchair when they go out. She tires quickly and we can't visit for more than 2 hours. Tough to watch her physically decline.

This is What Happens to Your Body When You Stop Drinking Soda
Scott in MN replied to Scott in MN's topic in The Café
Had been drinking 3 Mountain Dews a day which equates to 510 worthless calories. I have a fridge here at work not 10' away with a few still in there. Other than Monday afternoon when I broke down and had one I've not had a strong desire for a week. I usually drink my whisky neat. -

This is What Happens to Your Body When You Stop Drinking Soda

My wife sent this to me last week. Pop has been my downfall over the years but I've only had one since she sent this to me. Hopefully I can keep it up. http://www.msn.com/en-us/health/medical/this-is-what-happens-to-your-body-when-you-stop-drinking-soda/ss-BBimfs0 I sent it to my kids (19, 26) and they've cut back too. -
Not an ounce, but I'll still manage to have an Irish beer sometime today

People always hear Blue Oyster Cult when I tell them I say Raw Oyster Cult

Well, you're right that parts are parts. One nice thing about bacon is that it is a whole meat

Wrong. Chorizo is great.

Friend of mine went snowmobiling up around Ashland this weekend. They had OK conditions. They did 170 miles on Saturday.

Funny watching the news last night try to make something of it. We've had so little snow this year they are desperate to get some coverage.

That sucks. Hope you get over it soon. Good luck.

Concert review. This was my second time going to a Gov't Mule show. First time I thought them to be tedious and too power ballad centered, but my friend is a huge fan and has been bugging me to try them again. Results: More of the same. They can rock, but lack a groove. John Scofield added a lot to them when he was playing. He had a groove that Warren Haynes would pick up on and match. There encore was Humble Pie's, "30 Days in the Hole" and "I Don't need no Doctor". Those two tunes had so much promise but they did nothing with them. moving along now.

Hopefully they have not burned out from their reunion run.

Government Mule with John Scofield. Rah! I knew this concert was coming up but never took any action on it. Friend texted me last night that he has an extra ticket available. I jumped on it. Better than me getting tickets originally since this guy is always one of the first to get tickets. 12 rows back in the center in a decent theater. Perfect. Looking forward to night of music.

I hunt Deer, pheasant, grouse and turkey. Cleaning and butchering the animals is not necessarily the fun part of the process but is part of it none the less. One feels a bit like an animal during it. Like I tell the kids, "We'll wash up when we're done, in the mean time, you shot it, you clean it." I end up with good, healthy meat that we use. I think this is much more realistic then being insulated from the process such as just buying a cut of meat nicely wrapped in plastic from the super market. You're eating an animal and you should have an idea of what went into that. If you can't handle the process maybe you shouldn't be eating it. Most of America is ignorant about meat production. A far cry from 100 years ago.

Not just corn! You have to have a few years of soybeans too.

Nothing wrong with Specialized. And besides, any bike that gets ridden as much as you ride them is a good bike.

I agree with the Plains designation. Big difference in those states compared to the others. Big difference between the eastern and western sides of each of the plains states too.

Did anyone celebrate the 35th anniversary of the Miracle on Ice?
Scott in MN replied to petitepedal's topic in The Café
Darn right. I was a freshman at the U of Minnesota where a good hunk of the team played on the Olympic team. Thing is the game against the USSR was not televised live. At least not for us. We were huddled around a radio listening to it. -
I figured you were just about to hurl.

Yes, I believe he was talking about posture, but I think we're saying his "good" choice of words was a conscious decision.

I would not be in favor of that.
