Ascend already, Mubarak.
So, garlic cloves (minced, sliced, chopped, whatever) for a cold: does it work?
Not so much. Hot pepper does, though.

I just noticed your tag, Steph. I think you're overlooking that maybe going to graduate school turns you into a supervillain.
Ha! Very possible! (It's really just a Sheldon quote from S2 of Big Bang Theory.)

Hmm. I have no hot pepper, but 2 heads of garlic. I've heard that eating a raw clove helps with a cold (and that if you don't want to have serious garlic breath, to just chop it in large pieces and swallow them rather than chew them). So I chopped a couple of cloves and swallowed them. I figure it can't hurt. (I hope that isn't my epitaph: "She thought the garlic couldn't hurt.")

I think Mubarak has also been reading Dinosaur Comics. He's about as self-aware as T-Rex is, I suspect.
Today is day 2 of the BevMo $0.05 sale. Should I be conservative in my unemployment, or go stock up on yummy yummy wine?

Yummy yummy wine gets my vote!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I'm putting the onerous task of digging my car out until tomorrow when it's supposed to be above 20°F (and snowing again).
JZ, your workplace is just trying to achieve karmic balance.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Um, what could be more conservative than nickel wine?? I mean, you'll be drinking while unemployed, right?
Note to self: an apartment that's $100/month cheaper and has a broker's fee doesn't actually save you money for at least a year, once you've paid the fee and the movers.

So, garlic cloves (minced, sliced, chopped, whatever) for a cold: does it work? Enquiring sniffly minds want to know.
For me, yes, but only if I start it at the very first sign (for me, sore throat) of a cold. I crush a clove into a tbls of applesauce and then swallow whole. I do this a few times a day for a couple of days.
