I think this might be deliberate provocation of the judge.

You know Dr Pepper is prune based, right?

Admittedly, HCB was good at figuring out something that was about to happen -and catching that something (what he called the ‘critical moment’). And his technical training shows through in his attention to figure-to-ground. But AA has him beat in composition, perspective, and tonal range*. There are things to learn…

Any idea where to find “I’d rather be an American than a Republican” shirts?

...in his mind I guarantee you he’s absolutely sure that he won’t see a day in a cell

Probably Hawai’i. My MIL lived in Honolulu (Punaho area). Wife and I visited every six months or so. I remember hearing a lot of Japanese in Hon- and we really liked a Japanese restaurant where nobody could speak English - but the food was pretty amazing.

I’m in MA too. I’ve been using the grocery plastic bag recycling for plastic bags and deflated airpak/airpillow packing. Bubble wrap and plastic peanuts go to the local UPS store for reuse. Our transfer station will take styrofoam (formed packing and peanuts - also food trays, but those are sorted differently). We’ve…

He’s definitely a couple of inches shorter than Jeb Bush - who is 6'3". They were on stage together at the Repub debates.

I was hoping the same for Mike Capuano, who was pretty far to the left, was making a point of publicizing all the little things the Trump administration was getting away with while we all obsessed over the big stuff. I’m in MA, but not his district. If he was in my district, I’d have knocked on doors for him. He got…

Wow! Zippy Pinhead ran for office - and got elected!

This is mostly people reacting to the recalibration of withholding tables that came along with the new tax plan - but some of us actually saw tax increases, notably anybody paying a morgage, local real estate taxes, or state taxes. Much more noticeable in places where real estate is expensive.

No ma’am, we at the Republican party do not have a sense of humor we’re aware of.

I use ROR (residual oil remover) and Kimwipes. The Kimwipes feel a bit rough to the touch, but I’ve been using them on optical lenses for about 30 years. I have yet to damage a lens or filter coating using this method, although I’ve recently switched from ROR to Panchro as it evaporates a bit faster. Neither leaves…

Finger ratchet is up to $14.

I thought this was going to be “stop using canned tomatoes”, not just the chopped ones. The issue is the plastic liner in the can in most brands contains pthalates. Major exception: Muir Glen - so it is possible to put a plastic liner that will stand up to acidic contents without plasticisers.

At least it wasn’t “Babby’s”, as in “how is babby made?”

So, by your formula (and including real estate), I should vote Republican. I understand that Hell Michigan recently froze over - but I’m still not gonna do it.

Of course you don’t. Part of managing sugar levels.

It seems that metformin interferes with that in-liver metabolic path that fructose takes (AKA de novo lipogenesis). My personal theory is that it’s related to people living longer when on extreme carb restriction.

Keep it up with the metformin! There’s some evidence that it might extend longevity - even for non diabetics. A recent wired article had details (title was something like “forget the blood of teens...”)
