From experience it is not a recent thing. The "healthy food" alway cost more. My brother tried to be Mister healthy. We were in a store he bought a loaf of "healthily" bread. It was half the size and double the price of a regular loaf of bread.
I was standing there, with my bag of Dori toes, "Get ran over my a truck you die anyway, regardless how healthy you are.

Why would you want to run somebody over with your truck?

Why would you want to run somebody over with your truck? I think he meant "If you get run over by a truck, you die regardless of how healthy you are" Though I would wager if Galadon has made it to 50, he's learned to avoid such situations by walking in places other than the road.

Some places the sidewalk is as dangerous as the road. Plus no one has ever said Doritoes cause cancer

Give them time, they'll find a study some where, some how that does prove that Doritoes cause cancer. Personally, I think breathing anymore causes cancer, but I'm not about to give that up. I guess I'm addited to it. Well, it is habit forming.

My brother tried once at age 5, he was very upset with me. I knew that he'd pass out and start breathing again, so I goaded (spelling?) him a bit. He held it till he turned blue and stopped short of passing out. He was not happy that I let him "almost die".

Breathing absolutely causes cancer. How else do the irritants that cause the various cancers of the organs get into your lungs. In fact. the next time a truck blows exhaust near you, sue the truck driver/owner/company for shortening your lifespan and damaging your quality of life. If you're an eye for an eye kind of person you should probably go ahead and kill the next person that smokes a cigarette within 50 feet of you as well, because their doing just about the same to you. In fact, the next time you eat anything with an artificial sweetener in it, you may as well commit suicide outright instead of taking the round-about route.

Hey all, I'll be going to a conference in Malvern, PA on October 7th, the 1st Sunday of October. It doesn't look like there are any D&D games I'm in then, so I'm out of excuses for not going, heh.

OK, I mentioned this to some people but... I'm not going to be working at the Costco in Lancaster for a while. I'm still busy working other places in York, Shrewsbury, and Hanover though. Most weeks I'm working 6 days, so I'm still more than busy enough. *yawn* Or too busy.

I think it says a lot that one of the opticians here is too stressed out and wants to go back to her last job as an air-traffic controller in California. For the military.

Something's wrong with my right arm, I think it might be a pulled muscle or pinched nerve or something, no idea. But the shoulder has been killing me for days, and now it's decided to make my neck and anything else near the shoulder hurt as well. I'm going to see the doctor about it, but the soonest appointment I could fit into my schedule is Tuesday. Goodie. So in the meantime I'm trying to dope myself up with stuff to dull the pain (nothing has made it go away that I've tried) so I can work. Whee.
We've tried massage, any other suggestions?

I can supply the whiskey, but the hot shower and floor nap are . . . Oh whatever, everyone else sleeps here anyway #drink#
Try, if you haven't, rotating the shoulder gently in a shrugging motion to see if there is a spot where the pain subsides. If so, start from there and work slowly into a wider range of motion. Or use the whiskey solution until the doctor looks at it. I find that since I strain my arms in all kinds of crazy ways all of the time (work, not #jerkit#, no funny ideas folks) I always wind up with little pinched nerves and deep muscle bruises that feel like what you're describing and don't go away with massage.
