[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Someone tell me about triglycerides?

They're related to carbs and sugar. I looked up the blood chemistry of it once, but I don't totally remember how it worked out.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I was able to signifigantly lower my triglycerides by taking fish oil.

When I go to my cholesterol doctor, he always looks at my test results and tries to tell me to eat more fish.

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.

American Heart Association, [link] has some useful info about tryglicerides. Sadly, it says to limit booze too.

Flax seed (and flax seed oil) is also supposed to have high omega-3 fatty acids. Some take that as a supplement in order to avoid fish oil.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Fish oil is supposed to help with the good cholesterol. That and exercise (a brisk walk at lunchtime works for me) get the good cholesterol up.

Oh, Daniel, that is sucky, sucky, sucky. I'm so sorry. I hope today is a little better.

Poor meara with the not pleasant wake-up call. Good luck with lowering. I have no advice, unfortunately.

Can it be 2:00 already? I want to get this over with.

I've been MIA so long, I've been worried someone might take my tiara.

We would never take your tiara! That would just be so very, very wrong.

That reminds me. I need to get me one of those these days.

I'm very sad because the tiara Cass gave me last year has tarnished. I think I can probably polish it up, but I'm not sure what to use. I have to fix it before a week from Saturday, though!
