Good news, Judith!

11798. Ulgine Barrows - 10/28/2004 6:29:27 AM

What's with the VIOXX records?

11799. Ulgine Barrows - 10/28/2004 12:04:35 PM

alistairconnor, baby boy, are you going to order from http://www.museumtour.com/ again, or are they idiots about currency , and don't deserve repeat business?

11800. Ulgine Barrows - 10/28/2004 12:11:28 PM

God it’s so painful
Something that’s so close
And still so far out of reach

who sings that?

11801. alistairconnor - 10/28/2004 12:45:58 PM

Aha, yes I'll look at that Museumtour catalog again... hey their website is much better! it was really awful last year.

11802. Macnas - 10/28/2004 12:51:41 PM

That would be Tom Petty, but I can't remember the song.

11803. Magoseph - 10/28/2004 2:12:49 PM

Hi, Mac. Is this the song?

Well she was an american girl
Raised on promises
She couldn’t help thinkin that there
Was a little more to life
Somewhere else
After all it was a great big world
With lots of places to run to
Yeah, an d if she had to die
Tryin’ she had one little promise
She was gonna keep

Oh yeah, all right
Take it easy baby
Make it last all night
She was an american girl

It was kind of cold that night
She stood alone on her balcony
She could the cars roll by
Out on 441
Like waves crashin’ in the beach
And for one desperate moment there
He crept back in her memory
God it’s so painful
Something that’s so close
And still so far out of reach

Oh yeah, all right
Take it easy baby
Make it last all night
She was an american girl

Hello Mago!

That is the song alright.

11805. Magoseph - 10/28/2004 3:42:25 PM

Flexy told me this morning that in all the USA and even maybe in the whole world, he’s certain that no one had a breakfast like mine: 1/2 cup of Bob’s Red Hall 10 Grain hot cereal mixed with 1/3 can King of the Sea Pink Salmon and one egg. Ugh, he said, how can you?

Well, could you?

11806. alistairconnor - 10/28/2004 4:11:16 PM

Is that what the doctor ordered?


What's the ten-grain hot cereal? A sort of porridge?

11807. alistairconnor - 10/28/2004 4:11:47 PM

... Well if not in the USA, then certainly nowhere else in the world.

11808. thoughtful - 10/28/2004 4:21:22 PM

While not tempting my tastebuds, that's a pretty healthy breakfast with a balance of carbs, fats and protein. Only thing missing in my book is some nonstarchy vegetables.

Good for you.

11809. Magoseph - 10/28/2004 4:44:28 PM

The cereal name was mistyped, Ali, it is Red Mill and is composed of whole grains--wheat, rye, oats, oat bran, corn barley, brown rice, millet, and flaxseed.

I couldn't find anything else in the house this morning that would give me the necessary protein breakfast I need for jogging. The last time I saw the doctor, he told me that whatever I was doing was good since all the tests came out fine. I'm about two kilos from the ideal weight for my frame now. It's fun to run around and wear tight funky gym clothes again.

11810. Ms. No - 10/28/2004 4:48:21 PM

Congrats, Judith! Excellent news on the med front.

Stems? Wow, you know, I didn't even notice the stems. I just thought they were decoratively arranged.

11811. Ms. No - 10/28/2004 4:54:31 PM

Ulgine,

Great tune. One of my all-time favorites. Used to sing it at the Round Corner Bar with the Babes of Thunder. We'd pile into the booth next to the jukebox, pour about ten bucks in it and totally control the bar music for the next couple of hours. American Girl was always in the mix.

wow, now I'm wondering how many tunes I can recall from our regular rotation

American Girl - Tom Petty
Take it Easy - Eagles
Unchain My Heart - Ray Charles
Heartbreaker - Pat Benetar
Little Wing - Stevie Ray Vaugn's version
Light My Fire - The Doors
Roam - The B-52's
Brown Eyed Girl - Van Morrison
One - U2
Come Together - The Beatles
Renegade - Styx
Whipping Post - Allman Brothers Band

I know there were others, but that's all I can recall for now. Maybe kaykaye will show up and add a couple.

11812. judithathome - 10/28/2004 6:06:41 PM

Magos, I would eat that in a heartbeat...I often have steel-cut oatmeal with a fried egg on top and my tests all came back good, too. Hadn't thought of adding salmon to the egg-oatmeal mix but some chopped ham might be good!

I never use milk on my oatmeal, either.

11813. thoughtful - 10/28/2004 6:13:52 PM

judithah, I'm glad about your test result. I guess what I'd want to know is what kind of heart attack the others had. My FIL had arteries clear as a bell, but died of congestive heart failure. Others, it's clogged arteries and a lack of O2 that lead to heart disease rather than anything structurally wrong with heart function. My old boss's mother had heart damage from rheumatic fever as a kid. Many ways to have a heart disease, not all detectable with an echo.

I presume you're taking a baby aspirin a day...

11814. judithathome - 10/28/2004 6:19:48 PM

My dad had clogged arteries, evidently. My grandad, too. (My mom died of a blod clot to the lung after hip surgery.)

I take certain herbs that have a blood thinning property daily and a baby asprin...not daily for the asprin because of what I take for my joint pain.

11815. judithathome - 10/28/2004 6:21:39 PM

The doc did say I should try a low fat diet because of my family history and I'm going to cut out some of the fat but not the good fat...olive oil, for instance.

I'm going to cut my cheese comsumption in half, too. But I think moderation is the key.
