RE: Your last meal today

Well, certainly try it--(yes, if you didn't like it you'd be out abut $4.00...), but I think you'd like it. Another way 'round is to clarify (called 'ghee') the butter--simply heat in micro for 45 secs. The fat separates (you use the clear...) and it tastes as good as butter w/o the fat! Try.....

RE: Your last meal today

Today's breakfast--Pan Grilled Breaded Salmon Filet, Swiss Cheese & Onion Omelette, Dill Rye Toast, Orange Juice, Milk, Coffee. here's a super hint (no, I am not being paid to advertise.. )

Try Brummels & Brown Spread. It's not margarine, not butter. It is made from yogurt. Great alternative.

RE: Your last meal today

I had a good brunch today--I made a turkey and cheddar melt double-decker club sandwich and a glass of orange juice. Super!

Can't win for losing, huh? Try to remember this:

RE: causes of breakups and divorces

Thanks for this perspective. You are of course right. I DO think it's rare. Like drug and alcohol rehabilitation (one of my primary focuses in practical nursing) the success rate is approximately 17%-------in a good year.

RE: They wished me to wake up alone for the rest of my life

Although I would be welcoming of a relationship, that person would have to have their own habitat. I have never regretted nor have I disliked my solitary life.

NO SHIT.

RE: Perspective

There were times when I worked a double shift, closed the pub, and got up to do it all over again. (Could not do this now..... )

RE: karma and destiny

I recently read this regarding "Karma"--"Karma is not about sins of omission or being mistaken. It is about being INTENTIONALLY mean/cruel. There's a difference.

RE: karma and destiny

Not quite. Karma is good if you are right, or doing the right thing.

RE: Complaint to CS administration

putting this out there as an opinion (can't be sued for having an opinion and stating it as such..)

the monied sites never quite let one solidify a friendship/relationship. The longer you stay on and visit "members' profiles, the more you pay. Sort of like the therapist who never reaches the last session for you. Why should he? What? And stop the cash flow?? Right? Be smarter than them.

RE: How to end a correspondence without hurting the other person?

as harsh as this sounds, it is far, far better and more humane than to let a bad deal keep going on......

Just a non-judgmental note to all (please read cognitively, clearly, academically--thanks..)

The primary reasoning for not allowing dogs in an eating establishment is biological--(the flora and fauna on the dog has a negative impact on edibles, and therefore, states mandate as per the risk factor). Clear? And, not disparaging anyone, let's be real: a dog is a dog is a dog, regardless of its role in society. So, I get the argument of citizens having their "right" to a service or emotional support animal, but the same bugs on a non-service animal are also on the support animal. Get it? I believe the greater risk is to the safety of the food.

100% correct. Thanks for this response.

RE: Leaving the United States.

Many of us are frustrated. However, I don't think it is any better elsewhere. I used to ponder the idea of moving to Australia, but they have their issues, as well. Looked into the U.S. Virgin Islands (WAY too expensive) Hawaii was on my mind, but in the last year the durability seems daunting. Pray for The United States Of America. We are still a loving, caring country. It's the people that make the country......Best wishes.

RE: Your last meal today

You know, I just love bacon and really cannot have it (but I do from time to time)....I find myself using bread I really like because I just can't tolerate (but still love) the butter, and margarine is just one molecule away from plastic, so I won't use it....I'm ditching sugar in the coffee most of the time. We all have to give up fave food--what will it get to--raw oats with skim milk?

The state of Oregon, and I suppose other states, has a very lenient policy on "service and emotionally supportive" animals. This thread will specifically be regarding dogs. Let's say I own a restaurant, and employ two people who both have (medically supported) fear of dogs. They cannot be around or near them. Should they have to sacrifice their jobs in favor of the person who has an emotionally supportive dog and insists on their right to bring the dog in with them? (This is NOT about a service dog for the blind, btw...) A second scenerio: A public library * allows a person in with a dog or two. The dogs become hostile, belligerent, barking. Should other patrons have to leave, if it becomes too hostile of an environment? Who's 'rights' are more strongly protected?


*this just occurred and the librarian had to ask the person with the two dogs to leave. We (five of us) are in agreement with this. just want to know what others think about this. Thanks!

I agree with Ozzie. (You cannot have your cake and eat it, too----posting opens the door, my dear..)

RE: How to end a correspondence without hurting the other person?

Alas, there is no one sentence that can serve as an umbrella cover. Each must be custom to the individual situation.

RE: How to end a correspondence without hurting the other person?

HEY!! (i'm not so think as you drunk i am.....)

RE: How to end a correspondence without hurting the other person?

I understand your feelings. You sound very sweet and considerate. I give you for that.
