Happy Thursday, everyone!

Sooooo good. I think I can actually feel my arteries hardening

Actor ALEC BALDWIN has urged visitors to New York to ditch the city's famous horse-drawn carriages - and get drunk and take drugs instead.

The native New Yorker claims the vices are as valid a "tradition" as the carriages, which he claims are cruel to the horses forced to pull tourists around Manhattan.

Speaking at a People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals event in the city on Wednesday (18Jun08), Baldwin told WENN about the traditions he took part in during his youth in New York: "I walked through Union Square on my way to acting class and got offered loose joints. Drug dealing was a great tradition in this city.

"There are other traditions people can get involved with in this city. When I was younger, I used to get a bottle of wine and get drunk under the Staten Island Ferry... so there are things like that you can do."

Classy.

I was just talking to my son who started his first job this summer. He was lamenting the fact that he'd been working his tush off and had only made a few hundred dollars. This from a kid who had no concept of money a few months ago. Ah nothing like life experience to teach lessons to the younguns.

Note: I did not report that abusive email to them. They didn't say how they learned about it; maybe someone else reported it, or maybe they saw the referrals from LGF and checked it out themselves.

HBO had a documentary on PETA a while ago that I think you can still see on-demand. It was mostly supporting (HBO skews strongly liberal), but it was intesting as an outsider to see their point-of-view. They are normalizing craziness, and pretty much act as the Shin Feyn (sp) to the animal rights terrorists that burn SUVs and free labratory animals.

Militant activists are militant activists, even when they are defending small warm fuzzy creatures.

Sorry to keep doing this, but if I don't keep mentioning it, I could miss hosting some of you.

The cow is expected to arrive in Atlanta this weekend and be unveiled at the June 20 game against the Seattle Mariners. Look for it between the big Coca-Cola bottle and the out-of-town scoreboard.

Does wine cut down on cholesterol? Is so, I'm good.

In general yes. Alcohol in wine helps keep cholesterol more 'soluble' so to speak...

Red wine has compounds that is anti oxidant in nature and is very helpful.

I had a patient who was informed she had high cholesterol, so she just decided on her own to drink red wine with her meals daily and upon the next blood tests, it was found her reading was much lower...without taking medications.

This is not to say it works on everyone...but it helps rather than hurts.

And of course, the key is moderation...if one drinks more than one drink a day...there are other issues one would have to contend with.

PETA Angry At Jessica Simpson Over T-Shirt

Washington (eCanadaNow) - PETA is not happy with Jessica Simpson to say the least after she was seen with a t-shirt which stated "Real Girls Eat Meat."

The People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals has fired back at Simpson for the t-shirt she was seen wearing.

They released a statement saying "Jessica Simpson't meaty wardrobe malfunction makes us thankful that no one is looking to her for food advice. Chicken-of-the-Sea anyone? The woman who thought that Buffalo 'Wings' came from buffalos would benefit from some good veggie brain food."
The rumor is that Jessica Simpson wore the shirt to take a shot at former girlfriend off Tony Romo, Carrie Underwood.

Romo, now Simpson's boyfriend, apparently still has feelings for Underwood, who was twice named by PETA as the "World's Sexiest Vegetarian."

re: #128 Psaturn

In general yes. Alcohol in wine helps keep cholesterol more 'soluble' so to speak...

Red wine has compounds that is anti oxidant in nature and is very helpful.

I had a patient who was informed she had high cholesterol, so she just decided on her own to drink red wine with her meals daily and upon the next blood tests, it was found her reading was much lower...without taking medications.

This is not to say it works on everyone...but it helps rather than hurts.

And of course, the key is moderation...if one drinks more than one drink a day...there are other issues one would have to contend with.

YIPPEEE ! Pass the Shiraz!

Weeeee! open thread!
A couple of things.. Sometime yesterday i saw someone here post that they were having a lizard party in San Jose around July 26th.
Later the hoopster remembered he'd be at the Sierra Suites in Santa Clara around that time with some old college buddies. There is always a need to crash a party in California..
I went back and couldn't remember the handle or find the post..
( lazy or stupid i guess )
So if you have seen this post yesterday could someone direct me to it?
let's see..what else? oh yea..
madisons friend was saying..

If you are young, maybe it is okay but I am noweating oatmeal, yogurt, salads, whole grain everything- with a side of lipitor. and this is with being a vegetarian(although i started being a veggie later in life).
I say...I was told 1 oz of some kind of booze a day is also good for you..like wine or something like that.
Don't forget to run or workout everyday..stay active.
don't get over weight..that's real bad..and remember to have fun and enjoy life every day to it's fullest.. You just never know when it's your last day here on Earth...
( so go ahead and splurge sometime and have that bowl of ice cream)

Best remedy used to be something called "yellow laundry soap", much better than calamine, etc. You got in the shower, lathered up with it, and left it on. I hear there is a product out now with same ingredients but don't know the name.

Hope you don't get those big blisters that fill up and break as you watch. Only good thing is those don't itch. You get that stuff when you mess with the roots.

Have you tried an antihistamine for the itch, like Benedryl?

And an anit-inflammatory for the joint pain, like Ibuprofin ?

I'll check if said product gets added to the shopping list in our household. It seems I will probably beat you to a certain stage of life, although considering how young you are it was expected.

They can continue without Soriano, but Zambrano is another matter.
He is the ace of that staff & if they lose him, they have to go to a team that is pretty much out of it & give up a lot to get theirs.
Bringing up somebody from triple A, will not cut it.
Soriano said in the paper yesterday, that he intends to be back for the All Star Game. Did that change?

Thanks everyone for the get well wishes and advice.

re: #194 lawhawk

I have found a good treatment for poison ivy: make up a lotion of equal parts dish detergent, baking soda and oat flour. Spread this paste on the afflicted areas. After the pus is drawn out, wash it all off with very warm water, and apply the paste again. Repeat.

This won't "cure" the problem overnight, but it will reduce the suffering and shorten the healing time.

POLL: AMERICANS THINK MCCAIN LOVES AMERICA MORE THAN OBAMA

Whether John McCain or Barack Obama wins in November, a majority of Americans say they will be proud of the new president, according to a FOX News poll released Thursday.

About two-thirds would be at least somewhat proud to have Obama, who would be the first African-American president. A similar number would be proud to have McCain, who would be the first Vietnam veteran to become president. In addition, a majority think McCain loves America "a great deal," while less than half think Obama does.

Would that be related to alimony? Here in Wisconsin if you have been married over ten years ( I think) you are entitled to alimony. I don't think it's necessary to have children, unless of course you get child support too.

But don't scratch!
