If it was a Bernie Sanders deal the meal would've been free and I'd have gotten the bill.

Really too funny.......... but had to be fake, not so much because of the physics of helium gas in solution but because humans do not vocalize with what comes from the gut. The air or helium has to pass through the vocal chords and they reside in the larynx that is located at the top of the trachea and thusly that gas can only come from the lungs unless there is a T-E fistula which would not be a good thing.

I own a number of good knives by many manufacturers. None of them are worth a whit unless you know how to keep them sharp and safe. I use a diamond brick, a 3000 and 7000 whetstone and finish with a razor strop with polishing paste. They are one and all razor sharp all the time. I actually warn guests that they are unforgiving slicing tools meriting the greatest of caution. Kids are barred from the knife drawer. When they get used they are hand cleaned, dried and steeled and put safely away. I have a linear drawer rack for the knives.

I thought it was Ad Nauseam
That would certainly be more appropriate.

We know that diabetes and heart disease are "food related illnesses," right?
I doubt if it will be long before we discover cancers caused by the chemicals introduced into the meat system.
Do not lump all of diabetes as 'food related'. Type 2 diabetes can have association with diet and can be controlled by diet. Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disorder not etiologically associated with diet and there is gestational diabetes unrelated to both. It'd be more accurate to suggest that certain disease states are more related to lifestyles than to just diets. Thus a change in only dietary intake will not have the greatest impact. Genetics certainly plays a huge role as well.

FWIW of all the silly things people do to themselves this one at least courses through the proper channels. Makes ya wonder if it could not be used to correct an impaction?

Interesting this discussion on rehabilitation versus incarceration. Ideally we would be able to wave a wand and correct all of societies ills but idyllic is fanciful, not necessarily practical. Everyone wishes for the best from others but reality shows us otherwise. There is a 77% recidivism rate for released convicts. Within a few years nearly all released prisoners are rearrested, many reincarcerated and for no minor crimes. So, liberal minded folks, how to we do better while this system is in play? How do we fund it? How do we implement it? How do we protect a law abiding functional society in the interim? It is easy to look beyond some imaginary horizon line into an elysian world but to define the real and hard pathways to that place is not so simple. We are verging on a global economic collapse. We have global military skirmishes aplenty and oodles of threatening sabers a rattling. We have disease. Humanity is wallowing in a cauldron steaming with needs both natural and manmade. Wishing and hoping and dreaming won't fix a thing.

I'd have to agree that the moderation here has become a lot more moderate. There have been several very testy threads of a highly charged political nature that are quire contrary to the stated guidelines and that would've in the past been locked or worse. Not sure whether to congratulate the forums for being more tolerant or resentful that they ushered away many longstanding fine debaters and contributors. Some here are more mercurial than others and a few have really intense agendas on their grindstones.

Yeah, a good receiver can run around $1,500.
The one thing I don't like about the advertising is that they don't show the power wires, which each speaker still needs..
Each speaker requires AC power.............. installation gets a little dicey and pricey?

Here's a link to Jammin Jersey in So Cal. They have your speaker drivers. But they also have earlier mid range compression drivers as well. In particular they have a pair of 2480 drivers which happen to be pretty rare and they're not cheap. I own and use the JBL 2482 midrange driver. I tried to find the 2480's but none were around when I was searching. Check it out.

Can do the anesthesia and run the bypass pumps (not at the same time) - can't do the surgery.
Close enough. I'm wondering why there is often memory loss associated with bypass surgery. If you don't know, just make something up.

Mallette/Dave......... As I have already stated medical science needs to determine the best to be obtained from MJ and figure out the best way to utilize it. For that matter there's a lot of medical potential for psychotropics like LSD too. But to merely cut the product free and available for personal application - is adding a new and different layer of inebriation into a society already severely troubled with existing products.
The problem is Medical Science has had the last 50+ years to do that and all we see from it is rampant Oxycontin addiction with over 20,000 annual deaths due to prescription drug overdose and a tyrannical government that leaves the one substance with 0 known overdose fatalities since the beginning of mankind on a Schedule 1 list. I dont trust the FDA or the DEA one bit and they have no right to control what I put in my body.
Agreed........... it was not good, along with the misinformation foisted on the public. It was not the correct scientific way to manage these substances and that needs to change. Oxycontin deaths have more to do with abusing the drug as opposed to accidental overdosing. This fact elucidates the human tendency to not manage these powerful drugs of their own volition.

Spent a career working with the less fortunates suffering from a range of chronic ailments. They so envied those born whole and healthy and faced challenges that many of you could not even imagine. They stood up to those challenges and for as long as they lived - they were happy. To listen to you all who have all of your health thinking that pleasure is found in risking that health and being fogged over with psychoactive drugs is so sad for me. Relish your health and celebrate life. Demonstrate to your own families the values found in productivity and wisdom and in real relationships. Does anyone really need drugs for recreation? With all we have available today entertainment should not be a challenge. More inebriation is not what will benefit future generations. More inebriation is counter productive. Already humanity suffers from generational drug families that tend to under achieve and under aspire. Ask any high school counselor or CPS social worker. Legal or not - more inebriation is not a useful goal.

Watched them on PBS at Redrock............ you will NOT be disappointed. Very true to the original group but with updated stage presentations.
