Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

taking fish oil

People have mentioned this before... what does it benefit?

Yeah. And if you eat lots and lots of seafood (like I do) are you getting enough fish oil already?

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

I do eat broccoli, but not terribly often. I only eat spinach in lasagna format.

I know doctors tend to take a "if you've got one risk factor, we'll just pretend you've got them all" approach, especially for those who have pretty good health plans; in my case, since I have grandparents who lived into the bazilions (and one grandmother who broke a hip in her 70s), I tend to try to plan on living into MY bazilions, in which case having bones of adamantium would be nice to have.

not only is their spouse unable to stop the divorce

Because, when your spouse doesn't want to be married to you, the best course of action is to piss that person off more.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Fish oil is supposed to give you Omega 3 fatty acids, which are involved in the cholesterol dealio. If you're eating the right sorts of fish (i.e. fatty), you may very well be caught up on that front.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Thanks for all the salt info, guys! I made four fruitcakes and luckily only two were saltless, although I think those two might have been overcooked as well. The saltless ones did have a low rise in comparison, but since I age them, I can't taste them. This recipe turned out to be a pain because I made the fruit mixture on Sunday and couldn't bake it until last night.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Um... which are those?

Salmon & tuna are the ones I can think of immediately.

Unfortunately, besides salmon, the general list is mackeral, herring, sardines.

What is even happening?

bon bon, if they're aging in booze, I really wouldn't worry about the taste thing.

Um... which are those?

I think cold water fish -- salmon, mackerel, sword fish, trout, blue fish. On the other hand, at least some of those are generally found to have high levels of mercury.
