Brilliant! Best poat ever!
I’m so proud of me.
Welfare up 41% under Obama.
Food stamp use up 70% since 2007.
Disability up 53% since 2002.
I am sensing a trend.
iPads should be a right.
This administration has begun a war on drunks.
I was impressed you got the mighty Rachel Lucas in on that, Dave.
Twitter is kind of amazing. You can talk to movie stars, sports celebs, etc, and they talk back sometimes. I wonder if these kids today understand how different the world is for them.
/get off my lawn
Me and Rachel have been fake internety friends for a few years. Although I really don’t know her, we crack wise with each other every now and then.
Chicks. They all over me. What can I do? *shrug*
*puts one toe on your lawn*
Damn. This is worse than losing the Americas Cup. A political scandal with aa funnier name than Anthony Weiner.

Morning Cool Kids
*slides Cyn a cuppa joe
I cannot get out of this bed. I need coffee and don’t have a coffee maker which means I have to go find some. These are real world problem yall.
*nudges Dave, smiles sweetly*
Well heroo there *pours another for Sohos* Here ya go, I make it kinda strong.
Misty and chilly here. . . no golf today and Herself is monopolizing the exercise room. Guess I’ll have another cup of joe and watch golf from Red China.
“I need coffee and don’t have a coffee maker”
What the hell?
Rebecca “lost” Mr. TiFW’s Kindle.
I say “lost” because it has to be somewhere in the house.
Unfortunately, we don’t know where it is, and Rebecca keeps telling us she doesn’t know where it is either (we suspect it is in a hidey-hole that she has forgotten about).
The Alzheimer’s aspect of DS is a frustrating thing…..
I use to read/comment at Rachel Lucas’s place all the time. I was bummed she let go of her blog. I should probably follow her on twitter. But then again, I don’t read anyone on twitter unless it’s posted here.
Sunny and cool in central Texas today. It’s a beauteeful day
No coffee maker?!?!
WTF?!
I left it with Count, Mare. I will buy a new one today.
HEB has some of the most awesome coffee beans ever.
I love HEB
Morning peeps!
Howdy PJ! How you be?
PJM! How you doing, gorgeous?
HEB is the shit.
*hands PJ a cup of coffee because this is now my thing. I’m the Coffee Whisperer*
Damn. This is worse than losing the Americas Cup. A political scandal with aa funnier name than Anthony Weiner.
Went to college with a dude named Peter Sample. Didn’t really know him that well. I kinda kept my distance just because of the name. True story. Neither of us ever found $20.
HEB is one of the few places you can find Keystone Light in bottles. I’m just sayin.
I lurves my hostages.
I’m also using you because I have to do a paper and somehow, someway, spending a shit ton of time at the hostages always helps me get my papers done.
*raises cup of coffee in air*
Cheers, Dave!
Tanks for coffee, Dave.

so sohos, how was your first night?
Did you sleep with the night light on?
That is right on time Cyn. I made no less than 50 trips up and down 3 flights of stairs yesterday. I need a massage something fierce. In fact I am going to go get a spa mani/pedi later to take care of some of my leg pain. I hate being old.
old? piffle.
Lemme tell you about old. MCPO, you’re up!
Ha! That made me almost snort my coffee, Pendejo
I hate being old.
SYWM!!
Thanks for the set-up, Dave.
No, I was a big girl. DD spent the night out so it was very quiet. I just unpacked and went to bed.
I am your Costello gramps.
Who’s on first?
I think I’m behind on a bit of news. Hmmmm.
At any rate, I hope the hostage wimmens are happy, safe, and looking forward to good things. Including coffee.
No, I was a big girl. DD spent the night out so it was very quiet. I just unpacked and went to bed.
Well, like I said, I’m proud and a little jealous of you.
So in other news, my cousin-in-law bought a new car yesterday.
This car is so special edition, he wasn’t even allowed to test drive it. If you wanted the car, you just had to buy it. $70,000 cash.
When I say bed lol it is a mac- daddy Coleman blow up mattress. hahaha. It is actually more comfortable than my old bed. PJM, you will appreciate this; I have to go to IKEA b/c they have knock off tempur-pedic mattresses at a fraction of the cost.
Hey, PJ!

anyhoo, since none of you asked, this is the car he bought

I am hoping to buy the fabric and have PJ make them for me. *fingers crossed*
is your cousin loaded?
since none of you asked, this is the car he bought
Sorry about the tiny penis. . .
hahaha, he’s loaded AND single and a really nice guy
but………..back in the day, he was a little too picky about women, so he never married. He regrets that now.
He’s about 45 and told PJD that he’d trade it all for what PJD has EVEN though we’re going through a divorce, he wishes he’d had kids and the chance at a family.
Now he just involves himself in his work. 7 days a week 10+ hour days.
SPACE PENS™!
I just needed to say that.
I am hoping to buy the fabric and have PJ make them for me. *fingers crossed*
hahaha, you have to write a sob story to the president of IKEA.
You don’t neccesarily have to be drunk to buy a $70k vehicle…..but it helps.
good morning Cyn-a-min
I just want you all to know, I’m currently studying to get my ham radio license.
Follytime! *mc hammer dances to bathroom*
YAY! I can start my workout now!
YAY! I can start my workout now!
Painkillers kick in?
now where did my cyn go?
HAHAHAHAHA!
Ok, I’m better now.
Peej, easy peasy on the ham, i got one , anyone can (S)
he was a little too picky about women,
When I was about 13 and my older bro was 16 he was dating an extremely homely girl. Not fat, not ugly, just plain. I asked him why he was dating her and remember his answer tothis day, “Son, if you’re picky, you ain’t gonna get no pussy.” I decided I’d rather be picky. Mrs. Pendejo and I were a perfect fit for each other 6 years later.
Son, if you’re picky, you ain’t gonna get no pussy.”
Your brother called you son?
Interesting.
If you praying types could offer one up for this family, I’d appreciate it: http://tinyurl.com/87cnc9j

Peej, how are the kiddos?
we have donuts and cheese danish here cyn, whats your pleasure?
Peej, easy peasy on the ham, i got one , anyone can
I agree, very easy. The cool part is that I got my dad into it, which means we’ll have the biggest fucking tower in my yard you could ever imagine.
The kids are awesome, thanks for asking.
Cyn, did you get the crease just right in those pants?
*gets thrill up leg*

OOooh, I’d like you guys to gimme yer opinions. It’s actually a power point, one of the classes I’m taking makes us do power points, access, visio, excel, word projects so we have at least basic knowledge. So I have to do a power point jam packed with all sorts of crap that I’d never do in real life. Font size change, font color change, bulleted list, a word table, an excel chart, smart art component, an audio sound, a movie clip and animation, clip art and a picture. FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!
So, you guys should give me your opinion on Droid v. Apple phones.

Spring for one of those that does the massage thing, Dave. With the long hose to it. It’s heaven.
Droid is “smartphone” for the masses, you can actually get them as a prepaid, resonably priced
Apple Phones are tied to expensive plans, and expensive, as with most apple products are rather expensive and hard to service

Seems to me that Apple products are for people who aren’t very smart. At least with a Windows-based product, I still have to use my brain to remember how to defrag, empty my cache, run a scan for viruses, check for updates, do rollbacks to uninstall and reinstall software, and occasionally reset my winsock.
I will be the smartee winnah in the end. You’ll see, just you wait.

Hawt!
Did I miss something in the last couple of days? Or is it none of my business?
On a completely unrelated note, after reformatting my computer, all of my saved pictures that I reloaded from my backup hard drive are now only seen as “shadows” on my “Pictures” page (although the pictures show up just fine when I click on them), and I am unable to edit them.
It’s almost like they are in “read only” mode now. I can upload them on some sites (WP, for example), but not on some other sites.
Also, the Photo Editor on this version of MSWindows seems to be quite different from the one I had originally. It doesn’t even seem to be able to FIND the picture files anymore.
It’s very strange.
I don’t want to call Dell Help on a weekend – even their North American staff people seem “off” on Saturday and Sunday (as in the “A” Team shows up for work M-F).

I’m ambivalent on the Mac-PC thing. I used to write System 370 assembly code so I ain’t no pussy. There are some things I like about macs, some things I think are stupid as hell.

Laura, Sams Club has jars of honey that don’t cost much. A lot of bulk honey comes from China where they may add nasty stuff. I have 2 gallons from my hives last year I haven’t put in little honey bear jars yet.
And since my Yankees are heading to Texas later today, I’m kinda happy it’s raining. Gives the boys a chance to rest.
Come to Texas Yankees.
Laura, as soon as you sink Scott to the bottom of the pond, I’ll be your honey.

How many iPads did you have to shovel out of the way to uncover it?
Haven’t eaten much “bread” since going on the GFD – I could, I suppose, but I don’t crave it all that much, even at restaurants where it is available.
However, on occasion DD#3 torments me by bringing in a sausage roll from the dougnut shop we used to frequent every Friday morning.
That’s when I threaten to hide her lifeless body under the house, ‘cuz it smells SOOOOOO good….
(Mr. TiFW breathes in the sausage roll fumes and calls it “food porn”)
How many iPads did you have to shovel out of the way to uncover it?
No iPads at the TiFW house (although DD#1 is supposed to be sending Mr. TiFW her old iPhone any day now; she just upgraded)
Bread is my weakness. Beer=liquid bread. I actually passed out after eating an extremely delicious sourdough at the Fish Market. Didn’t care. I’ll risk amputation for a really good sourdough.

I’m on day 12 of no carbs. I would kill xBrad for some fresh bread. . . or a quarter.
*Checks couch cushions for change
It has been quite a while now, and my sourdough is still not actually very sour.
It seems the wild yeasts in Connecticut are hardworking and efficient but rather mild and polite.
BAH. Just as well.
yearns for the yeasts of the breads. And Doritos
I don’t think I could live without carbs (my weakness is soft drinks).
But I don’t crave them like I used to.
I read somewhere that the Japanese word for wheat is “oomi” – which translates into “yummy”. Don’t know if it’s true or not; don’t have the desire to go check it out right now.
Maybe XBrad can research that while waiting for the Chief to drive to the West Coast on his electric scooter…..
Lauraw, pretty sure that in the sourdough spectrum your bebe is pretty young. Whenever we would travel to CA we would get Boudin sourdough bread. Stupid diabetes. No bread. No pie. *cuts self like an emo.
Really? I couldn’t give a damn about bread anymore after I read about what’s in it over at that primal site.
But that’s after years of quitting sweets and pastries and breads in greater stages over time, so it wasn’t quite the flick of a switch it seems.
I will still make special breads and homemade crackers for Scott occasionally. Realistically, people are living historically VERY long lives, and they’re doing it while eating grains. I’m not going to ever be a fanatic about this.
I’ll be an 80/20 type.
Inspired by paleo, I did buy a whole coconut today and I must say, the juice is refreshing and crunching down on a few pieces is quite satisfying. I wasn’t hungry for hours.
I need some coconut oil
You do, Dave. We all do.
That way, you will be
one of us.
one of us.
one of us.
the vortex.. aiyeeeeeeeeeeee
Lauraw, I remember reading about paleo diets and why native populations are susceptible to diabetes, teeth issues, etc because of processed foods. In a serious vein, the H2 is very good for diet and exercise tips. In an irreverent vein, I miss Pop Tarts.
TOP PARTS.
no wait..
*finished eating home-made, carb loaded chocolate chip cookie.
Hey, guys. what’s up?
Dave, we love Dave. LOL
*picks sugar and gluten out of teeth
What did I miss?

I’ll be going up into the mountains next week and there is no wifi or cell coverage. I’m already having withdrawals. Stupid mountains.
Carbs for the day –
Small piece of whole grain toast
Carbs in my yogurt
1 chocolate cookie.
DON’T GO OSO

Carbs for the day:
Looked at a bread recipe.
Rent a satellite OSO
*cries.
you know, me and my anti -Paleo stuff is because I’m just against it 100% I eat like it MOSt of the time, although I don’t eat AS much meat (because it really doesn’t agree with my digestive system) . And, of course, I eat dairy and legumes. But not to a crazy level or anything.
I figure I’m healthy (knock on wood) and by this time I know what works for me.
*eats another cookie
It’s medicinal.
DaveinaGadda da Vida. . .
Oh, and the soccer game SUCKED today. Ga. the guy – the assistant coach – really sucks at coaching. Plus, it was 49 degrees and windy . I almost died.
MCPO, it is all about balance. I can have 45 grams of carbs per meal. 15 per snack. My mom is allowed 17 grams per day. She cheats. She was in ABQ for an MRI last week. Her blood glucose was 530. She was back on insulin within 3 mos. of getting out of the hospital.
Oso – so, you’re saying my 121 ain’t so bad?
I could give up bread/rice if I wasn’t running.
Carbs for the day:
1/2 loaf of french bread (with delightful and refreshing sour cream dipping stuff)
1.5 cups of cooked rice
1/2 the remaining loaf of bread
Beer
Crap. At that rate I’m going to wither away.
Chief, they lowered the diagnosis # to 115 from 125. My docs say that you should act like every pre diabetic diagnosis is real. All about the A1C number.
Oh, do potatoes count as carbs? I had one of them too.
Oso – With all due respect, fuck Doctors! I’m convinced that they are in league with big pharma and the Obamacare cabal (BIRM).
Bruins win in overtime! Game 7 coming up!
I could give up beer if someone paid me, in beer.
I’m with you chief. Just eat healthy because we love you.
I also think they’ve lowered the numbers because we’re too stupid to know the truth. And – but – I think that’s true for many Americans. DOesn’t mean I have to go along with it.
No run for me today MJ. Sigh. I did work out every day since last Sunday, but I was going to go for a long run anyway.
Didn’t happen. too busy and TOO farkin windy.
Carin – The more I think about how they are “fiddling” with these numbers, cholesterol and the BMI, the more my tinfoil hat starts to twitch.
Added two balance ball exercises to my routine today. My abs are screaming.
the more my tinfoil hat starts to twitch
LOL. I think they all get together and thing “you know those fatty fat folks are too stupid to care for themselves …. we have to lie to them to scare them straight. It’s for their own good.”
SO they change policy to accommodate for society’s lowest /dumbest people.
Chief, my Dad was the same way. The thyroid wave, diabetes wave, etc. As a Corpsman he would overrule the diagnosis and the prescriptions. He had diabetic skin and when I told him I was a diabetic, he told me that they’d been telling him that for years. He never changed anything. I’ve just met too many people who were diagnosed with neuropathy first. That terrifies me.
The last Dr I saw was about 28 years old. She used her laptop to google right in front of me, “It says here……”
Thank you Dr for your mad google skills. There are some good ones but most of them are idiots.
It rained on and off all day. Made it out for short run, though.
I start swim lessons next week. If I can swim for 15 minutes, I can finish a sprint tri. First race is July 28th.
Scott, my Dr told me to stay off the internet. I was diagnosing myself before I ever went in. I have 2 cousins that are Drs. I will talk to my pharmacist SiL before I consult a Dr.
can we talk about tits now?
^^ Yours?^^
No.
I see no reason to talk about my tits.
fine.
more vitamins then.
What is “Diabetic Skin”?
And they did the same thing with obesity “numbers” that they are doing with diabetic numbers.
Overnight, a whole bunch of people who weren’t overweight woke up in a whole new weight class….
sent from my iPad with no tits.
TiFW – That was my BMI reference. I gained 1 lb in a year and went from overweight to clinically obese due to the change in the numbers adopted by the W.H.O. and foisted upon us by the Obama regime.
can we talk about Peej’s boobs then?
foisted upon us by the Obama regime.
I think it’s more by the orgs that make money off the numbers of people.
In the past, the number for diabetes was 150. Now it’s 110.
Suddenly millions of more people were diabetic and “OMG IT’S AN EPIDEMIC!!1!1!1! WE NEED MOAR MONEY!!!”"
can we talk about Peej’s boobs then?
they’re real. And meh.
one man’s meh, is another man’s GOOD GOOGLY MOOGLY
It’s just tits.
I’ve seen tits.
Chief, I think they did that with the weight/BMI numbers a while back as well; same thing with cholesterol numbers.
Every time that “they” tell us to eat less fat and more grains and people start doing that – and subsequently gain weight and get diabetes – “they” decide that the weight gain and diabetes MUST be caused by people eating too many fats and not enough grain.
So they lower the recommendations and the “standards” and are then SHOCKED when the number of “unhealthy” people goes up, not down.
I mean 8-10 servings of GRAINS per day? Anyone else remember when you were only supposed to eat 2-3 servings a day? (You know – back when people weren’t as fat….)
Dave?

THE WATER WAS COLD!!!!
Tifw, diabetic skin is paper thin and has mottling. My A1C was 9.6. I lowered it to a 4.6 through diet and exercise. When my mom was in the hospital, I was meeting diabetics that were diagnosed after neuropathy and amputation. Within the diabetic community there are people that want a type between I & II for people that aren’t obese but fit the profile.
Mr. TiFW popped the new washer’s cherry with a vengeance this weekend.
He is currently washing the big comforter that goes on our bed…..
It’s just tits.
I’ve seen tits.
Dave’s got awesome tits
stop sweet talkin me wiser
Dave’s got awesome tits
I needn’t be aware of this fact.
In other words, TMI!
how age has jaded you crossdressing tranny lovers!
I’ve been off Metformin for a few months. I’m back to a size 4 and I have muffin top. My monitor has been consistently in the low 100s and I’m ready to get back on Metformin.
new kickass post with the best song ever recorded…

Pikshures or it’s not true!
blueberry or strawberry muffins?
Come to think of it, if the H2 were real, it would be a bull dyke.
Yes Oso, the internet changed everything. All the information is there, you just need to find it.
Lakers came back from waaaaaaaaaaay behind and won in 2OT.
Dang, that was a game. (And good for the Spurs.)
