Thanks. I am hoping for positive outcomes.

I tried the chili pepper flavored Ramen noodles yesterday. A friend told me they were really good, but, to start off with just half the seasoning packet, which I did. It is by far the most flavorful I've tried yet.

I told you that, so I could tell you this:

Today I learned that the rest of that seasoning packet made for some of the best scrambled eggs I've ever eaten.

It wakes up the tongue, that's for sure.

Nothing like a little MSG to start the day.

Today I learned rerealized how little I mean to the people that mean something to me.

I really don't know why they mean anything to me.

Gravdigr 12-02-2014 02:57 PM

Nah, just another day.

Anything that happens at a Nuke will be blown out of proportion by the press until they get to the point where they start intimating a cover-up prevents us from finding out the truth.

In Boston, over the last couple days, a man was admitted to Mass General with a fever and as a precaution was put in isolation as a precaution. Stop the presses!! EBOLA!! Man sick!! Ebola!! In isolation!! EBOLA!!.

So Mass General releases a statement after a day or two, saying the guy has Malaria. But the fucking TV news still have EBOLA!! as every other word out of their yaps. After all, we can't let the truth stand in the way of a good story.:rolleyes:

I learned that Ryan Leaf, the OTHER QB drafted right after Peyton Manning was just released from jail. He had apparently broken into people's houses to steal their pain pills.

pretty fucking crazy

I suspect by the time someone has earned the chance to even be considered for the NFL draft, they've accumulated a slew of hurt. If they make the cut, along with trainer's help, they can afford to control the pain. If they have to go work for a living it's a problem, because pain control is expensive and addictive.

Today I learned that, despite looking ridiculous, smushing several spoonfuls of ice cream against your nasal passages will, in fact, ease the unbelievably intense burning sensation if you absentmindedly rub your nose while cutting up a poblano pepper.

It still fucking burns, but at least I'm not crying anymore.

Whoops.
