PS I assume you brought your umbrella today?
Yes! I wanted to make sure it didn't rain.

San Fran fixed its Freeway problems with a good earthquake. You just need some of your roads and buildings shaken up so you can rebuild them how you'd like.

Maybe they can let Detroit borrow one.

I generally doubt the existence of god, but come closer to believing whenever I eat raspberries.
I had raspberries this morning. And blackberries. Fortunately, I experienced no religious epiphanies, rapture, or other unpleasant God-related side effects.

Are we talking about breakfast foods to get to the end of the thread, the name of which I basically never see? Or are we just feeling a bit dull today?

I think RT should try growing blackberries. They don't seem to mind the hot, and they have Pretty Little Flowers in the spring.

i agree with you on the raptures being unpleasant- like I'm always waiting for the world to end for the few hours afterwards. Can't motivate myself to review the documents at all.

But okay, here's something. one of my neighbors is a mid-30s woman who is now really buff- she teaches spin classes even!

So anyways, last week I saw a draft of a book she wrote on staying fit. the first chapter talks about how her Sicilian mom always fed her fatty foods and she never was encouraged to exercise and she was chubby in her early 20s. Remember- mom at fault.

She then discovered exercising, and eating right and now she is the boss of a roomful of people in funny shoes and Spandex "climbing hills."

in one of the later chapters, on making time to exercise, she has the statement, "And don't feel guilty if you have to feed your kids fast food so you have time for your workout. You have to make the time somehow." something like that.

Is that ironic, or sad or just dumb?

Or is there a "we're all in this together" vibe that kicks in?
Ithought you went to Choate?

I usually have a salad bar. salmon and shrimp salad, sometimes jicama salad, sometimes broccoli. Shape witnessed that, I don't eat much for lunch,
If you eat too little/go for long stretches with nothing, your metabolism can switch into an even lower gear.

Which reminds me - for breakfast today so far I've had coffee and skim (organic!) milk and should probably get some real food as well.

How far east does the Westside extend? I should just take Olympic until further notice -- SM is under construction and usu one lane is closed for like 50 ft, but it screws everything up even more.

And, ppnyc, when did I ever say I was on a diet?

Now, be fair. Hank's just offering helpful suggestions based on observations from his visits to the LA area.

I've been to Detroit on deals myself. Well -- Livonia, anyway. It was very nice. It was not Detroit proper, of course, but I think I was close enough to see the fires over the horizon.
