  1. ...why would anyone but you be a consideration ? I don't get it ? ...suckup much ? ...once you figure out where the toxic is coming from, it's not that hard to avoid it. The tricky part is stepping back for a moment, and trying to figure out why the taste has changed.
  2. ...do you think the State Fair traffic pushed her over the edge ?
  3. ...stay strong. Most eating is all in your head, anyway. Think of the money you'll save on food. And no bothersome dishes to wash.
  4. ...you're probably not old enough to know, but Lucille Ball started her Hollywood career as quite a sexpot.
  5. ...less working, more riding. Image loading not working for me now.
  6. ...State Fair here is terrible now. Used to be my favorite thing to do, but they've gradually eliminated everything I liked to save some money. No tractor pull, no demolition derby, no RV demolition derby, no chinses acrobats. And they hired some hypnotist for the stage show who is terrible. And the horse racing was cut way back this year, because of the heat. they didn't want to explain why some of the horses dropped dead on the track. I hope the MN state fair is still as wonderful as it was when I lived there.
  7. ...as an OT 8, I am a member of Sea Org. We don't need no stinking Greenpeace when we want to go to sea. "We Come Back"
  8. ...I heard he joined the Church of Scientology, and had enough cash to make OT 8. You shouldn't believe everything you hear. But it seems to be going around, so what do I know ?
  9. ...so why continue to exaggerate it ? Let the poor man rest in peace.
  10. ...much truth in this. What do you call it when someone chooses to escape an abusive environment ... healing ?
  11. ...it's not exactly the same smog they get in LA, but it's similar. The prevailing wind patterns in summertime often push the air particulates generated in the Bay Area in our direction, and the valley itself is a giant bowl, so if the wind dies down and there's an inversion layer, it gets pretty nasty.
  12. ...this is an easy mistake to make, and comes from all the years of telling women your member, actually three inches long, is a good nine inches. So I get it.
  13. ...am I the only one who is discouraged, that a Vegan thinks he needs to eat better, and one of the youngest people who posts here is complaining about aging ? Stop beating yourselves up. Life is short, and if you feel and function well, fuck the BMI charts. I have never come in as the right weight for my height on those stupid charts, even when I was in the best shape of my life, able to leap tall buildings, with the help of a big ladder. I'm a mesomorph. We're supposed to be heavy.
  14. ...a simple suggestion, from a simple person (me). Your friend seems to be one of those people who has not made the mental leap to exercise routines needing to be part of your daily life. Thus, her bike comes to work on top of the car, while your bike rides to work as part of your routine. I have, myself, attempted to nudge people in the direction of bicycle commuting, because it works some regular exercise into your routine, and usually ends up taking not that much longer than driving, by the time your fight traffic and park. Sometimes it works, until the weather gets bad. I realize you live in a smaller town, and it's entirely possible she needs to drop kids at day care or school. But if that's the case, she's not well situated to use a bike as a valuable part of a regular exercise routine. Life is short, and there are only so many hours in the day. I would offer to sit and talk with her, looking at her weekly schedule, and try to figure out some portion of the week she could use to work in exercise as part of her routine. It might even be a stop at the gym on her way home, or several evenings weekly when her partner takes care of the kids. Nobody is gonna lose massive amounts of weight and get whipped into shape riding their bike during lunch, at work. It's just not realistic.
  15. ...Toyota has a manufacturing plant right there in Jackson, TN. It has been permissible to own and drive a Toyota truck in TN for at least 15 years. Should still have a possum license plate, though. The gun rack is optional now, because of all the tourists who cannot be trusted not to steal your rifle out of the truck cab. Many now go with a handgun in the glove box, instead. If I were buying another truck, I'd go with Toyota if I wanted an ICE truck.
  16. ...yeah, my second wife weighed just about a hundred pounds, and that divorce was a mess. ...that's a lot. Maybe just go for 20# in the first year. ...people don't see me that way at all. There are some distinct advantages to being perceived as a crabby, old misanthrope.
  17. ...those things you are worried about "showing through" ? The bib straps cover them up.
  18. . ...I have owned and ridden all kinds of bicycles, varying in date of manufacture from the 1950's to the 1990's. I ride three or four times a week here, maybe 20-30 miles at a time. I have never, in all that time, owned a cycling jersey. I mostly wear bib shorts over a t-shirt, and if it's cooler, a fleece top or cutoff sweatshirt over that. I wouldn't know what to do with a jersey. And I certainly do not want anything "showing through."
