Even better are sweet potato tortilla chips like the ones from Trader Joes. They’re better for you (ie: healthier). I like to sprinkle mine with a bit of taco seasoning. Same great flavors, but avoids the processed foods problem. And if you care about carbs, they’re usually lower than Doritos for the same quantity and…

I just had some this morning: 1/2 cup of full fat cottage cheese (organic), 2oz of smoked salmon (the good stuff... made from wild caught salmon, not farmed and no extra colors added), a few capers and a pinch of fresh ground peppercorn. My only gripe is the combo is almost too salty, but its certainly tasty and a…

I won’t argue that a keto diet may become less effective depending on your goals for starting a keto diet. If the goal is weight loss and specifically to burn off stored body fat, then as you reach your goals it would be seemingly less effective (interestingly your body will adapt to this as well... initially you’ll…

I saw an email about 10 years saying if I sent it to everyone I know I’d get some his money. I’m still waiting... :P

I’m curious how you would word this article if you were writing to low-carb, keto type persons? Most doing the keto thing have very little glycogen in their system. Instead, they’re burning ketones. Over time, the idea of a long term keto diet is that you’re “fat adapted” so your body is only producing the ketones the…

I’m one of those people that was doing keto before keto became cool... I also am not a morning person and A) usually don’t like to eat breakfast and B) usually don’t have time to eat breakfast. But my go-to has been 1/2 cup of cottage cheese with about 1/4 cup of blueberries in a to-go container. Takes about 2 minutes…

There was a time in my life where my credit and lack of savings were such that I had to deal with “buy here, pay here” used car lots. I can attest that in some of those cases the loans are structured such that even if you pay off the loan early, you still must pay all the interest. In other words, paying it off early…

Consider the “legal hold” and potential subpoena issues related to doing company work on a personal device. Most states have pretty firm labor laws that try to protect the employee (although many protect the company more than the employee). I understand this person “morphed” from contractor with his own equipment to…

There’s an another alternative that can really help if you’re working out alone: don’t use the clamps. I have a home gym that includes a bench press and I workout alone. At least once a week I “max out” and its not uncommon for me to not complete a set and be left with weights on my chest. In these cases, I simply…

“If you eat too much protein, nothing terrible happens, but the extra protein is just calories.” Actually... that’s not entirely true. Consuming excess protein can also tax the kidneys. Granted, you need to be doing for a certain length of time, but there are consequences beyond just dealing with the extra calories.

Its not just the grills though. Its the branding. Dodge recently decided their tailgates should all be buildboards for the brand. Chevy has followed with the 2019's. Now we’re seeing the same in the front... big, large FORD’s and RAM’s and CHEVROLET’s. That said I have a 2016 Chevy Silverado and I personally think the…

“This is why you’re always hungry after you have a salad for lunch”...

Well that depends. If you’re a carboterian (or a carb monger) and you eat a salad full of (empty) carbs (even “good” ones) and you’re already the type to drink lots sugary drinks from places like Starbucks and other high carb, high sugar foods than…

This is the cheapest way I know to reduce pet allergens. I’ve been doing this for years now. Basically each night I move the fan/filter combo to a different room and let it run for an hour while I read or watch TV. Combined with a Roomba or a Neato, and my daughters allergies are all but non-existent (at least until…

Had this setup on our Yukon XL Denali back in the day... back when I had 4 kids at home and ages 13, 11, 5, and 1. It cut the fighting to a minium... but also allowed for leaving car seats and/or car seat bases permanently mounted in the second row and accessible from the doors with the older kids in the back. I can’t…

I’ve flown them for years. I found the news articles to be a bit over the top, but you gotta figured the pilots want to live as much as the passengers. These days I only fly one route repeatedly and that route only uses the new planes, not the “suck you out the windows” planes.

Some people have really good AD&D coverage I suppose.

If you happen to fly the regional airline Allegiant and have their branded BofA credit card, you’ll get one free drink on each flight for showing the card to the stewardess. What they don’t tell you is this applies to anyone flying with you (your spouse or over 21 child). Also, they default to one free alcoholic…

That was exactly what I was thinking. The women I have been with can all come and still keep going. Sometimes they peak and need a short break, but they can still keep going. My experience is if guys come, its pretty much over... especially if they go limp, get tired, and lie down. Sure there are cock rings and such,…

Men (and I am one) let’s be honest. It take a lot less work for us to orgasm than it does for 99.99% of the women out there. If you’re orgasming before she does, you’re a self centered asshat. Touch her nipples. Touch her clit. Finger her vagina. Find what works for her. Find what gets her off. Then make it a goal to…

I see Apple Watch’s more than I see any other smart watches, but I can’t recall ever seeing one on a 65 year old. Most of the over 65'ers that I see still have Jitterbugs and Hurrycanes not iPhones and Apple Watch’es. Is this the new Life Alert? Do I now buy an Apple Watch for my parents in case they “fall and can’t…
