Really Boring Stuff Only III: Resurrection

[mtrycrafts]

I just love the taste of 100% maple syrup. Amazing what comes out of a tree.

But isn't that processed after it comes out? Even if it is just filtered.

You CAN buy happiness, it has two wheels and is called a MOTORCYCLE!

That is relative, isn't it?

That is relative, isn't it?

I know ths guy who bought the fastest Ducati ….. one small twist of the wrist and your drivers license is gone; 110 mph in 2nd gear, faster 0 to 60 mph than Formula 1…. jeeez ‍

Maple syrups are not processed like the other kind of sweeteners we use in our daily life, so it still contains most nutrients from their natural state. They collection has one primary function: boil off water, and turn the watery maple sap (about 2% sugar) into thick maple syrup (66.9% sugar).

Yup, that's correct! Boil it down, filter out with disposable paper filters any remaining solids (a.k.a. bug carcasses), bottle it.

No strawberries? No whipped cream?

After my head and neck cancer treatments, I can't taste strawberries, apples, bananas or whipped cream and any ice cream for that mater and a whole lot more stuff. A freaking bummer, but it beats the alternative.


OH PS: I can taste pretty much all vegetables, I know weird, I can't taste beef, chicken or pork at all by it self.. But a little seasoning and some hickory/oak SMOKE helps. And I have to be really careful and really limit salt, as I can taste it.

F^%& dude. That's the saddest thing I've read in a year! It just kept getting worse the more I read. I gotta wonder what happens if you put the salt on the ice cream and maple syrup on the steak. But throw those vegetables right in the dumpster.

I recently got rid of a bunch of gear ... I know, I was all broken up too but TLS' first subs finally got to breath in their new home. There's a hole where the bass came from in my living room now. I'm gonna take TLS's second subs out of Mantown and put them in the living room. They'll fit and might look alright.

Mantown has a couple of pretty decent 10" drivers for bass with the 3-ways so 2.0 it is: all powered by alphii's little Yammy. Bi-wired of course.

NOTE: Nobody with any sense bi-amps, let alone bi-wires.

The living room also lost Erin's Pro amp and the associated fans. It's dead silent at the MLP now. I'm bored AF and waiting for sweets ... it's a death wish.

I saw a pic of what they pulled out of one of my cardiac arteries ... maybe the salt on ice cream isn't a wise course.

The SongTowers sound wonderful all alone, subless. It was our 10 year anniversary this year.

Well, the maple syrup I can actually taste, the salt and pepper or any spice just allows me to at least have a piece of meat with everyone else at the table. Oh I can eat shrimp ( grilled/blackened) , saltwater fish (grilled/blackened) , lobster but the big reason is the "salt" , so got to be so careful. The docs say, since its been two years since my last 60 gy's of radiation, my taste buds are not coming back at 100%. At least I have 50% saliva production. It is what it is, as they say.

Oh: I got to have my veggies

 

[GO-NAD!]

Gonna see my cardiologist. She’s pretty cute. I’m wearing clean underwear. Just in case.

My Dad had a heart attack last week. A 99% blockage of an artery will do that, I guess. He made it, but they had to put the booster cables to him a couple of times. And, he now has three stents in that artery.

I am glad your Dad is ok. Scary stuff.

Geesh. Now I feel like my 3 week bout with diverticulitis, vascular issues in my feet (too many year getting frost bite) and my back being out is nothing.

Congrats on the 10 year! Where is she taking you?

 

[Alex2507]

Where is she taking you?

Can't make this up ... 10 years with the SongTowers.

It's over twenty with the girl (wife ... more or less).

And it's to the brink of sanity that I'm being led.

My Dad had a heart attack last week.

I'm still looking forward to my first heart attack.

I hear they suck.

One year of war: The first year since the beginning of ruzzia's full-scale war against Ukraine | What was it like?

Today it is one year since the invasion, there will be large scale demonstrations across the civilised world, I am of course going, bringing the large Ukrainian flag, photos coming!

 

[GO-NAD!]

Yeah, it was a bit scary for us all. He, however, was telling jokes to the ambulance crew and nurses all the way until the cardiac doc got to him. We all figure it was a coping mechanism, with the great beyond staring him in the face.

My parents moved into an assisted living home about a year ago. Dad is 85, hasn't been slim in many years and likes to eat. The kitchen staff have been far too generous with his grub and he's packed on more weight since moving in. When he returned to the home, my Mom read them the riot act and they aren't allowed to pamper him to the same degree as before. I don't know if it'll help him live longer, but it's gonna make the time pass far more slowly for him.

Not having had one, I can't say how much they suck. I can confirm that having a loved one go through it does have a high suckage coefficient.

On fb I called the pope capt obvious for saying it's better to be an atheist than a bad christian and had my comment removed. What's his next quote? 1+1=2?

Oh, btw, since I can't get to an MD soon enough, what does 'acute encephalopathy' mean? Like am I damaged, upstairs? Anyway, that's on my cardiac paperwork.
