...This is just an elaborate advertisement for Merino. What gives?

is this useful advice or a commercial for merino wool? tough to tell...

Lorne wasn't running things when Murphy was there. He was on Simmons podcast recently and actually denied watching the show for the 2 years in the 80s he wasn't producing it. I don't believe that for half a second, but Eddie was never one of "Loren's Guys".

I think Lorne Michaels is pretty legendary for firing even the ones that we loved. I know that Sandler and Farley were both unceremoniously fired from the show.

It's cliché by this point, but slow cookers. I have other favorite tricks, but I'm hard pressed to think of another thing in my life that saves as much time. I can make a decent pot roast in less time than it takes to make microwave mashed potatoes. For the pot roast, I just drop some broth, a packet of spices, and a…

as an ex-pharmacy tech, that request just made my thumbnails hurt. I've spent hours popping out blisterpacked pills that were expired, so they could be shipped to incineration in the least possible packages. You'd have to do a hell of a lot better than thumbs-up and cool-guy-nods for me to consider it!

I'd say MOST…

I've found a few pharmacies that do just that, even place pills into the daily carriers. They've never been major chains though, just smaller mom and pop establishments in Iowa (go figure).

Yes, they will unblister pack your meds if you ask nicely enough (although you may have to deal with some eye rolling from the technicians), split your tablets, change your lids to easy open, and recommend OTCs, but they always have enough help unlike the big…

I agree there are plenty of programs already to get that are open source towards communication of email or alike. But, 9.99 compared to thunderbird is about the same thing. Both flexible

if anyone here is a sociopath, it's the jamoke putting society at risk by hauling ass in daytime traffic.

exactly, road rage is meant perjoratively - this here is righteous anger.

small quibble, "road rage" implies losing it over some trivial driving faux pas. Someone rear-ending you at a stop light is grounds for maximum apeshit fury.

Many pharmacies will also blister pack pills, which is very useful if one tends to forget doses (or forget whether you've taken a dose or not).

I have this feeling that, someday in the future, we'll find a completely different cause of all these health issues. Looking back, the future will view the way we deal with diet and health in the 21st Century with the same head-shaking that we look back on a time before we knew about bacteria.

Other advantage. Using credit it is a lot easier to fight scumbag rental places that try to put fake damage charges on you. The credit card company will do all the fighting for you.

That's not strictly pedantic, it's merely wholly irrelevant.

Tahini is so cost prohibitive around me that making Hummus always tastes worse and costs more.

Whatever, he fucked me pretty good too.
