  1. Scuba is right, TENS is not a gimmick, it relieves pain. No drugs, no downside. I have used it for back pain as well, used to allow me to work when I couldn't stand up straight due to pain. Put the electrodes on, put the TENS unit in my pocket, pain under control. No reason to exclude it, it provides immediate relief. Using it doesn't prevent you from doing exercises.
  2. Every well-informed person knows that the sacrifice most pleasing to supernatural beings is/are personal checks or banknotes quietly placed in a collection plate at a service in a Christian place of worship on a Sunday by a person dressed in their very best clothes.
  3. It was in a clear plastic bag, there was no sign of mold. The mold spread, grew, proliferated overnight to cover the surface of the entire load. I haven't seen that happen with bread that contains preservatives.
  4. A dumb kid fascinated with guns. So sad.
  5. If you had not led a sheltered life you would not find this worthy of mention, And would not find the thread worthy of 20 some posts. Says: "Has it come to this???"; clutches pearls.
  6. "The few times a year that I ride the skytrain in Bangkok, I try and spend the time counting the number of locals that are overweight versus the number that are not overweight. I would say it is in the range of about 50%." I don't get it. What is the fascination with the weight problem of others? I don't mean to single you out, every time there is thread about this many join in to bash fat people. Live and let live. I'm not mad at fat people. Doesn't this fall under the category of MYOB? Like the song says "If you mind your bizness you'll be happy all the time...", courtesy Hank Williams.
  7. Maybe not, doesn't Santa work on the 24th?
  8. My daughter lectures me on avoiding preservatives, meh. They might be harmful to health, apparently might not be harmful as well. I was in Laos and bought a loaf of bread in the evening. Next day I went to make a PBJ and every inch of that loaf's surface was spotted with mold. So I see why preservatives are used.
  9. Is it OK to like Starbucks? If I have to wait for an appointment or to meet someone I like Starbuck's. People can find it and it has many locations (if meeting someone). Comfortable chairs (not tiny stools) and AC and tolerable music at a tolerable volume. With respect to price I walk right by Starbuck's and get a can of Nescafe at the market if I just want a coffee. Is it OK to like Nescafe? Many on here so desperate to demonstrate how refined their taste is and what they don't like. Thanks to many on this thread that have recommended restaurants and shops that they like. That is useful information. So many restaurants, although I would like to, I can't try them all. Happy Holidays!
  10. Murphy's law is not about randomness. It refers to the impossibility of foreseeing every problem that might arise in complex systems designed by humans. When problems or events not anticipated by designers arise or occur "things go wrong". As far as not understanding what is going on, I understand perfectly. The system is not working as intended, that is what is going on. Access authorizations are not working consistently. The responsibility for knowing where that failure lies is not mine. As far the electronic financial/commerical system, everything works perfectly until it doesn't. My problems have all been with authorization of charges or access and from a failsafe point of view all the errors have resulted in denial of appropriate access which is a preferable outcome to allowing inappropriate access. Even still, access authorizations are not working consistently.
