[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.

I wonder--do employers often not say a thing at all?

The one time I was let go with no reason given. my caseworker at the unemployment office was pretty shocked. So I don't think it happens all that often. Though that might be because then the (former)-employer has no leg to stand on in avoiding getting dinged for the unemployment.

Or maybe it just didn't happen in Chico because of the small town charm and everybody knowing each other's business.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I hear it works for some. When a headache is coming on, take 5, put feet up, close eyes, chug a cold Gatorade. Pushing one's electrolyte balance towards optimum levels seems to help.

Does it have to be cold? I'm not a fan of gatorade but since I've had a headache that flutters between sinus, tension, migraine and why is someone trying to get out of my head using a dull spoon for several days, I'm ready to give it a go.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Does it have to be cold?

My guess is the coldness makes the Gatorade taste less like pee, rather than being theraputic in its own right.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Gatorade taste less like pee

And this? Is always a good thing.

Are there Thai people in Portland?

Hmmm, frozen headache versus tastes like sweet pee... It's a quandry.

There are undoubtably Thai people, and therefore magical soup, in Portland. But I am feeling iffy about the driving around aimlessly to look for it. I'll text Pamela and ask her. Of course now I want the crab pad thai that I had here last month.

Try 85th St (possibly 81st). I want to say SW, but I'm not sure. Near all the car dealerships, there are a whole bunch of Asian restaurants and grocery stores, at least one of which is Thai.

I tried that soup from my local Thai place, Trudy. It was good and fairly therapeutic, but not magic. Alas. I might have to try another restaurant nect time I'm all stuffed up.

I think I actually know roughly where that is. Thanks!

I only hope my extremely limited supply of Portland knowledge may be of service.
