Hey, groupon users! Question... are any of you participating in the Groupon Rewards Program?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I guess so.

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

They're all posed and nigh undressed and nips pushed out and trampy. Not letting anyone see that over my shoulder.

Oops, I didn't catch the nips on my first view. Anyway, I'll adjust my NSFW posting filter accordingly.

are any of you participating in the Groupon Rewards Program

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

It wasn't mentioned in the article, but those Saudi religious "policemen" (are they real police?) will often go around hitting bad people with sticks, right?

tommy, they aren't the actual police; they are officials whose job is to patrol the streets carrying a big stick and watching for anyone committing a religious crime. Men and women who are seen in public together must be able to prove that they are related or married, or both are subject to arrest and/or being beaten on the spot. A woman might be beaten for such crimes as exposing her wrists, speaking too loudly, or laughing. I hope the woman who attacked the officer will be all right. I would bet the reason the man mysteriously collapsed was that he got gut-punched for defending her.

I've come to the realization that my body doesn't really find carbs agreeable, though my brain and tastebuds TOTALLY disagree.

Oh, I'm there with you! They have almost come to blows at times over cupcakes.

my Dad never had problems with lactose until he went off milk when he was on Atkins.

I think that was what happened to me: I had problems with gluten after I went on low-carb for a while and then went off again. I think the body has enzymes or something that deal with those things, but if you stop eating them, they go away.

and, um, maybe that's what that linked article said...

Thanks!

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I drank heavy cream when I was on Atkins, did he give up milk products entirely?

He drinks coffee black, so while he had some heavy cream, it wasn't much, and cream's low in lactose.
