I've starting taking a Calcium supplement because I hate drinking milk, so I know I don't get enough calcium in my diet, and because both my grandmothers had osteoporosis.
I worried about that, but my doctor told me that my love of cheese was taking care of my not drinking milk. Do you eat other dairy products?

The whole time I was reading that article about the old man and the mouse, I couldn't stop thinking, "You know, if he'd only heeded the cautionary tale of the Squirrel Cop, this never would have happened."
The first thing I thought of, reading about the mouse-house fire.
I take a crap load of calcium every day. I take 2000 mg of calcium plus 800 mg of magnesium and a very potent synthetic vitamin D to help me absorb the calcium. This is all under a doctor's supervision, so it's not something the average person has to do. But it gets annoying taking all those pills every day.
Besides, people who take their vitamins have skin that makes better book binding material.
Exactly. People should also wash those vitamins down with lots of water.

Hey! I met her! Her baby brother stomped my heart into little bits and pieces! Though this should have no bearing on any Buffista's interest in her work, as she herself did no stomping (and, really, I spent an awful lot of time and energy stuffing my heart under his feet again and again, and my heart could have easily escaped with only minor bruising if I hadn't been so stupid).
Crap, I seem to be running out of outrage again....
I think this is an administration strategy, especially after the warrantless wiretaps and the statment that we can still torture people while signing the anti-torture legislation. It makes you kinda forget about all the lies about Iraq.
Exercise is also very important in preventing osteoporosis.
