  I tried this for a while but since I only drink one 20 oz. a day and those only give you 3 points, I wasn't getting anywhere on the reward program. I managed to save up enough for a year's subscription to 'Better Homogenization and Gunfights'.

  Have you tried asking the folks at the local convenience stores to save you the empty 12 pack cartons after they stock the coolers? Those have to be worth more points than the odd 20 oz. or 2 liter.

  And a little bttt for good measure.

  we have a craft store here in the midwest called hobby lobby.

  besides the glue and yarn, etc they carry a lot of crosses.

  no other religious items just crosses.

  If you look at most strip malls that have a Hobby Lobby you'll find a Mardel Christian bookstore somewhere nearby. They're all owned under the same corporate umbrella. The Mardel stores are busy enough in this state to be in strip malls by themselves.

  If you go to a doctor they will most likely give you an injection of Indocin/Indomethicin a very effective but hard on the liver nsaid. You can take 800 mg of the advil three times a day but I never found it to be as effective as the Indocin. If you go to the doc most likely they'll put you also on allopurinol which keeps the uric acid levels down.

  I agree with the cherry thing but I can recommend one better: go to the healthfood store (if you have one) and see if they have Bitter Cherry Juice. I can't remember if the juice was concentrated or not just that I drank it directly from the bottle twice in one day and woke up without the flare up the next morning.

  Ben Franklin was plagued by gout so badly that he even wrote a monologue between himself and Madame Gout on why she was so mean to him and visited him so often.

  I finally stopped getting gout when I quit drinking, fwiw.

  Fairy tale characters / Bible characters

  by LtCmd.Lore in

  1. jw

  the day to day life of a bible character is pretty similar to that of a character right out of a grimms fairy tale.. witches are a real threat.

  you can go down to the local spiritist and get really useful information.

  you have your magic pots that constantly contain food, if that fails you can count on a bird to bring you food.

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. I've heard that kind of thing before. But you forget there is one obvious difference between fairy tales and the bible: The bible starts out, 'Once upon a time..." and a fairy tale starts with, "In the beginning..."

  Oh, wait...

  So I'm tickled at this story from another site I visit:

  A story I heard...
  One day my mother was out and my dad was in charge of me. I was maybe 2 1/2 years old and had just recovered from an accident.
  Someone had given me a little 'tea set' as a get-well gift and it was one of my favorite toys.
  Daddy was in the living room engrossed in the evening news when I brought Daddy a little cup of 'tea', which was just water.
  After several cups of tea and lots of praise for such yummy tea, my Mom came home.
  My Dad made her wait in the living room to watch me bring him a cup of tea, because it was 'just the cutest thing!'
  My Mom waited, and sure enough, here I come down the hall with a cup of tea for Daddy and she watches him drink it up.
  Then she says, 'Did it ever occur to you that the only place that baby can reach to get water is the toilet?'

  Funny enough, right? I thought so, until I saw this as a reply:

  I was two and I was playing with a tea set. One of those annoying ladies who go from door to door pushing religious tracts at people dropped in. My mother was young and didn't know how to get rid of people.
  I got the lady a little cup of "tea" (water). Finally it dawned on my mother that being all of two years old and fairly short, I didn't have access to a water faucet. She asked me where I got it. I told her, "the 'modie".
  
  The lady left.

  Are you honest with your kids?

  my daughter is a talented cartoonist and makes the funniest sketches.

  way too much irony for a 16 yo!

  she isn't technically proficient exactly, but she captures a mood so well that i halfway think if she were 'better' it might ruin the charm.

  Your help is exposing her to others or fellow students that can offer her the kind of advice or help she won't take from you, or obviously her teachers. You're making easier for her.
