Coffee, cigarettes, cocoa, gum; "A fella could have a pretty good weekend in Vegas with all that stuff.."
Well, I've been to one world fair, a picnic, and a rodeo, and that's the stupidest thing I ever heard come over a set of earphones. You sure you got today's codes?

I tentatively ... sampled ... bits of a ~20 year old MRE about a year ago that had been stored under sub-optimal conditions and came away little worse for the wear. The entree had some signs of breakdown and the desert had an unpleasant metallic taste. The tobasco sauce had turned an unhealthy shade of green and I tossed it. M&Ms were passable.
Not sure I'd be so brave as to attempt to sample something 60 years old as that fella, however.
I just finished reading Dr. Dale Bredesen's 2017 book: The End of Alzheimer's: The First Program to Prevent and Reverse Cognitive Decline. What? End of Alzheimer's? Prevent and reverse cognitive decline?
From the book:
If you have a high risk of developing Alzheimer's because of the genes you carry, if you have already developed it, or if you have a loved one who has, you therefore have every right to be very upset about this situation.
No wonder we have come to fear Alzheimer's disease as omnipotent. As hopeless. As impervious to any and all treatments.
Until now.
Let me say this as clearly as I can: Alzheimer's disease can be prevented, and in many cases its associated cognitive decline can be reversed. For that is precisely what my colleagues and I have shown in peer-reviewed studies in leading medical journals - studies that, for the first time, describe exactly this remarkable result in patients. Yes. I know it flouts decades of conventional wisdom to claim that cognitive decline can be reversed, that there are hundreds of patients who have done just that, and that there are steps we can all take now to prevent the cognitive decline that experts have long believed to be unavoidable an irreversible. These are bold claims deserving of healthy skepticism. I expect you to exercise that skepticism as you read about the three decades of research in my lab, which culminated in the first reversals of cognitive decline in early Alzheimer's disease and it's precursors, MCI (mild cognitive impairment) and SCI (subjective cognitive impairment). I expect you to exercise that skepticism as you read the stories of these patients, patients who climbed out of the abyss of cognitive decline. I expect you to exercise that skepticism as you read about the personalized therapeutic programs we developed to enable everyone to prevent cognitive impairment and, if they are already showing signs of it, to stop mental decline in its tracks and restore their ability to remember, to think, and to once again live a cognitively healthy life.
Chapter 2 is titled: PATIENT ZERO
quote below it:
Everyone knows a cancer survivor; no one knows an Alzheimer's survivor.
Then he starts telling you about Kristin (not her real name), his first Alzheimer's patient where his ReCODE protocol (reversal of cognitive decline) cured her.

Coolest 4 minute video I've seen in months
This is a YouTube video I stumbled upon a few days ago. It includes 10 separate events involving animals literally taking the initiative to save other animals from various potentially deadly situations, without any human encouragement.

Okay, I like it. (Would still prefer one made with Love from Grand-ma though.)

Awww.... so adorable.
Yes, totally adorable. However, it will grow to ten feet tall, weighing about 1,400 pounds and eat you......so, in time, not so adorable. I wonder if that's what Siegfried said to Roy.

That was a tiger.
True. But babies are adorable because they're tiny, and harmless.
This is pretty cool. :twothumbs
