From languages to salt mines to trilobite eyes in one page. This is my kind of thread!

When you buy your first house, you fill it with stuff. When you get too much stuff you buy a bigger house. Then ... what's the difference between stuff and trash? Is old stuff, trash? Garage sale items can't be stuff, or it would a stuff sale. Can you put stuff in your garage? It's all crazy stuff or dumb stuff. Shyt can be stuff because there crazy shyt and dumb shyt.

I'm trying to learn ASL(American Sign Language ) it's difficult. In the U.S. some states are different because the same word in one state can mean something different in another. i.e. In Ohio you fish in a pond. But in Texas you fish in a tank. If sign language was universal the whole world could communicate using sign language. But that's too easy.

I am on page 7 of Dave's compilation of articles. Challenged but doing OK at deciphering.
Fascinating to say the least. A very hungary mind.
WHERE do you get all this stuff Da Vinci Dave ?

I am a "5" on the Enneagram. I try ( Do or do not. There is no try. - Yoda) to understand and find myself riding madly off in all directions at once.

Print a CalendarI've printed these out to 2025. The only way I can keep track of my pills is to draw a line through today in the morning and X it out at night.

Sorry, but I have to laugh. Because I thought I was the only one that did that. :) Never stop doing.

When traffic comes to a complete stop in Germany, the drivers, by law, have to move towards the edge of each side creating an open lane for emergency vehicles. . . Why don't we have these rules???-Chris. — with Bj Akridge, Jack Weaver, Lourdes Gomez-Cruz, Terry, Moses Nderitu, Emma Gomez, Paris Fitzgerald, Michael Keenan, Luvuna Mandeti Tshuma and Joyce Murigi.

An interesting Ph Chart

An interesting Ph Chart These charts are very misleading. For example they list papaya as being alkaline when it actually has an acidic pH just over 5. Here is a list of common food pH levels: foodsafety.wisc.edu/business_food/files/approximate_ph.pdfAnd these charts are designed for the mythical "alkaline diet". The reality is that blood pH is regulated almost exclusively by respiration and kidney function. Diet DOES NOT regulate pH. For instance if you drink ionized alkaline water, which is very unhealthy anyway, all you will affect is the stomach pH as the water's alkalinity and the stomach acid both get neutralized by the reaction of both. If you ingest a cola most of the carbonic acid dissociates and you burp up most of the carbon dioxide. The phosphoric acid is neutralized along with any other dietary acids and stomach acid in the chyme as it leaves the stomach from the "alkaline response". This is where pancreatic bicarbonate is released in to the first part of the intestine to neutralize acids so they do not damage the intestines and to allow alkaline digestive enzymes to function.

The reason why we don't have the rule because we have knuckle heads that pass on the far right, in the grass area. Thats not a passing lane, so why would they leave the center lane open for somebody else?

I have a nasty form of psoriasis and frequent a board for such. There is always some yahoo claiming some nonsense about a cure if only you eat for the right ph balance.

That is Quite a difference. Thanks! Dave

These charts are very misleading. The same for my diabetes. Fortunately most of them are long winded. That always turns me off!

Psoriasis can be cured, just not by supposedly alkalizing especially since it starts in an alkaline environment to begin with as do virtually all diseases. Here is a link to my write up on psoriasis with a basic explanation of what causes it and how to get rid of it. medcapsules.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=2910
