Always Anti-fascist!

I want to see a manager about the human digestive tract. ETA: am also envious at the thought of trips to Paris. I haven't seen Seattle, yet, even. Passe or not, maybe I can put together a posse to make some of those things happen.

Thanks for thoughts all. Keep them coming. I’m making my decision tonight.

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 woke up at 530AM with a terrible cramp in my calf. OWWW. Guess I need to eat more...something? Magnesium?

Magnesium and potassium. And, for me, sodium. I have 'fasting salts' at home. Leg and foot cramps are the bane of my existence and I hate them.

With me it's mag, because I have an absorption issue, so I take a ton, BUT... also make sure you're hydrated enough. Leg cramps at night for me is a sure sign that I'm dehydrated.

Samesies. They suck so hard.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Coconut water. If you're not crazy about coconut water, make lemonade with it.

What does one eat for potassium besides bananas?

Lots of stuff besides bananas. Any dried fruit is probably higher. Kiwi fruit is a good low sugar fruit option. Avocados have a lot of potassium if you eat a whole one. As Teppy noted, there are also potatoes, including sweet potatoes. Also winter squashes. Mushrooms I believe are pretty high.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Or, if you get the right mushrooms, they'll make you pretty high.
