Two factors were discouraging: The constant peeing, plus the fact that I could literally feel the water move in my stomach as I moved.You’ve also heard the mindset that ‘detox’ is for fuller fleshed women.

We had another full bar in for Trivia last night, with 17 teams taking part in all the festivities. We had one team who dominated the night, Our Naming Rights Are Still Available (our friends from DIMS were away on vacation), rolling up 54 points and winning the night easily.

What a Turnout! with 41 points, and third... Читать дальше...

Shopping can be fun, exhilarating ...

For years, humans have heavily depended on the use of fossil fuels, beginning with the start of the Industrial Revolution, when most of our activities required their use. In the recent era, we’ve finally reached complete dependence on the use of fossil fuels. In fact, the bulk (81.3%) of total US energy consumption in March 2016 (according to the US Energy Information Administration, or EIA) comes from three fossil fuels, namely petroleum, natural gas, and coal.

This band may be from now but one listen and Flower People takes you back to the great music of the late 60’s early 70’s.  This song is very bluesy and soulful.  I’m Your Friend is a cross between the Allman Brothers and Tom Petty.  Excellent music to just kick back with a few friends and have a ...
