What the pig buggering fuck is this happy horse shit? FAUX Gras? Are you shitting me? If you don't want to eat animals and animal products, fine by me. But! if you really want a meat product, just fucking eat it. Don't try to make a fake version of it. ( Read more... ) -
Puppy!!
So, Mike and I got a dog. He's been settling in well. We've had a few challenges, of course. The biggest one is he, as most labs, is incredibly food oriented. Foster actually ended up being crated for dinner the past two nights, for sticking his nose (and tongue!) where it doesn't belong. And, again like most labs, he's incredibly high energy ( Read more... ) -
peanut butter cup pie
So, I've got a craving for peanut butter pie. The one Denny's did 10+ years ago, with actual peanut butter filling that tasted just like a reese's. Alot of the recipes I'm finding are chocolate pudding with a little peanut butter mixed in. Bleh. So I did some hunting around, and found this:

fuck big pharma redux
It seems like every jan-feb I go thru this shit, and I'm fucking tired of it. I placed an order for Copaxone, ya know, the drug that prevents my tcells from eating my brain? Anyway, that order got placed 2-17, to be delivered 2-23. On 2-22, my insurance company realizes, 'oh wait, she needs to have a prior auth for that!' Cuz you know, I've ( Read more... ) -

Say No to Pharma!
Can excess iron lead to MS? Article here: http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/researchers-labour-of-love-leads-to-breakthrough-in-treating-ms/article1372414/ And, of course, there's big money in the pill game, not cures. Which explains why the National MS Society is extra negative about this procedure. Gotta keep that money coming in ( Read more... ) -

OK, people... Who would be interested in doing a slave wage potluck thanksgiving, for those of us who have to work the actual day? I'm thinking of doing it a week or two in advance, maybe on a Sun or Mon? I can deep fry a turkey! -
Ale, man, Ale's the stuff to drink
From An Echo in the Bone, by Diana Gabaldon; pg 528
"The notion that it was better to spend one's life in pursuit of a noble goal then to merely seek safety - he agreed with that one entirely. But surely such purity of purpose was the province of men without families? A paradox there: a man who sought his own safety was a coward; a man who risked ( Read more... ) -
Another goal accomplished
I don't care what you say, Heaven and Hell IS Black Sabbath. Fuck you Sharon, get that stalagmite outta your wasted cunt and give it up.
In related news, Black Sabbath kicked ass tonight. They hit a lot of goodies, but sadly they didn't play Sign of the Southern Cross or Lady Evil (my personal fav). Mike and I agree we would have liked them to ( Read more... )
