5 Reasons Potatoes Don't Deserve Their Bad Reputation
RA1 replied to TampaYankee's topic in Health, Nutrition and Fitness
I have known folks to drive 88 miles for a Big Mac but I am not one of them. Yes, potatoes are much maligned. It is mainly the toppings that are "bad" for one. But, what is life without toppings? Take that any way you wish. ANYTHING without moderation is by definition bad for one or worse. Therefore, be moderate. Best regards, RA1. -

Aww, I am in awe. Just so long as they are not featured anywhere near the headlines. Best regards, RA1

I got my pilot's license out of a box of Wheaties but don't tell anyone. lookin- We are about as opposite politically as any two posters on this site but that doesn't stop us from having a beer together or, sometimes, agreeing. Best regards, RA1

I can't believe he said the financial crisis is solved. The US has a 17 trillion dollar debt and contingent liabilities that may approach or exceed 100 trillion. How are those resolved? I don't see how taxes resolve much of anything. Suppose we tax the companies that are producing emissions out of business. Now what? Also, who get the taxes and what do they do with them? Virtually nothing useful. I just don't get it. Besides I live at 411 feet above sea level so nah nah nah. Best regards, RA1

Also LOL. Best regards, RA1

Are we assuming the kid is a boy because his jammies and butt are blue? I never wore red jammies which could have matched my red ass but who knew? Best regards, RA1

Is this with or without a trial? Presumably after they have served one term? I would hate to have to guess why they are criminals. Best regards, RA1

Sleeping naked is fine, but being naked otherwise makes more sense. Best regards, RA1

Likes are always welcome. While I have not so far run out I still find myself upon re-reading bestowing likes post post. Perhaps we should compare likes to bit coins. They aren't real but spend and there is a limit. Best regards, RA1

There is no doubt that there is a lot of frustration out in the US today. There is still wide spread unemployment. Most of the jobs since 2008 have been minimum wage type. Black folks seem the hardest hit although there are still way more poor white folks. However, statistics don't matter when you are unemployed. Here are some things I have read but not verified. Who knows what news source is reliable? While it is true that Michael Brown is a teen-ager, he is 18 which makes him legally a lot of things. He also reputedly is over 6 feet tall and weighs 300 pounds. Stealing cigars is no reason to kill anyone. Having that same large someone threaten your life might be. In the current political arena, the cop will be tried and examined to a fair thee well. Fine. But, how are Jesse Jackson and all the other agitators helping by rabble rousing? From what I can tell, by far most of the folks rioting and looting and burning are outsiders. This will leave the town with fewer jobs and more unemployment and a past difficult to get past. Who does that help? There are plenty of legitimate questions. Did the cop have a Taser? Or, a night stick? Was his likely choice being beat up severely or shooting Brown? All this does not need to be swept under the rug but it doesn't need media exploitation either. It is early days but a lot of bad stuff has already happened and it could get a lot worse.

How many likes are we allowed? And, if it isn't enough, why is the site so parsimonious? When one runs out of likes, what happens? Do the lights go out in Georgia? Best regards, RA1

So long as you haven't been doing it wrong. At my stage in life, I am looking at mentees, not mentors. OK, no jokes about your little fishing motor. Best regards, RA1

Holy cow. Shades of "The Gift of the Magi". Here we are brandying cleverness and prettiness and to what exact point? I learned that from you, MsGuy. Best regards, RA1

Now if the press will quit censoring themselves aka not reporting all the news, things would improve. Best regards, RA1

What starts out being a parody of Anderson Cooper ends up being a parody of DW. Still very mildly funny. Best regards, RA1

Well, I don't know if MsGuy wanders up and down the NT but my guess is that he lives in north MS. Therefore that was confusing. Not an unlikely event. Child actor? Well, I suppose that is perfectly OK during the time you were a child. Thanks for the falcon-like reply. Best regards, RA1
