^ I bet that won't be up for very long. Sort of like the video of the Xcelerator accident, it won't last long. Eric

^ I use the Humilog (9-12 units) before each meal, and one daily shot of Lantus (30 units) in the evening. And just watch the heck what I eat and do a lot of walking. My doctor is pleased with how I'm doing. I'm awaiting my latest blood work results, but on the last one, my A1c was 7.2. At Wendy's, when I get chicken nuggets, I don't get any of their dipping sauces---I just use the chili. And that's good stuff! Eric

I know, but I was referring to the original design. And your cat is annoying because SUMWUN TAEKD ITS PIE!!1! Why do vehicles have to be no more than 18" away from the curb (in CA at least)? -
A cool piece of "Disneyana"

With that giant letter in full view, I'm surprised that no one has vandalized it. I hope there's some sort of fence/alarm/moat near it to keep vandals away. And if it belongs to John Stamos, why didn't he buy the "s" from the sign? Eric -

Honest John's Used Sheep. If you hurry, you can get one for $99 down and 0% interest for six months. Be careful, though, as John may pull the wool over your eyes in the deal. Why did Arrow give their corkscrew a clockwise turn? -
Since when does ghetto mean giving you the runs? That means your body does not like it. I'm well aware of that. Since I didn't remember when I wrote that, I went back and found this post, and also discovered that this thread had been merged with another one, so I don't remember what I was responding to, being that my quote was from a few years back. Anyway... @ JJ728, I'm not on the pump (yet), but I do inject insulin "the old fashioned way." How much I inject depends on what my pre-meal blood sugar level is, and what I anticipate eating. If my reading is on the low side (<90), I'll inject 10 units of Humilog and then I can usually have pretty much anything, though I'm still careful and still forgo the fries. Eric

^ Be patient, Brandy. These things take time, and your patience will be rewarded. Trust me. Eric

There really is a lot to see there. I've been going down there since I was a kid back in the early '70s. And there's even more there now. The Metro Red Line (subway) has a stop there, which makes it very convenient. (Note: if you use the Metro, get the all-day pass for $6---unlimited access to all Metro buses and rail till midnight. And it's a lot easier and cheaper than trying to find parking.) Eric

^ I know where the picture in your avatar was taken. Eric

^ It's all about being careful, regardless of whether it's fast food or the homemade kind. I do eat more fast food than I should. But with a few guidelines, I do just fine. 1. No more fries. That cuts down greatly on the dreaded carbs. 2. No sauce on burgers---especially mayo (which I can't stand anyway), dressing, etc. 3. If available, choose a wheat bun for burgers. That increases fiber (which is a carb, but has no effect on blood sugar). 4. Stick to the smaller food items, or items that are high in protein. 5. Drink only diet sodas (an obvious one for us sugar-challenged folks). Eric

^ List or link to list, please. That I'd like to see. Eric

No, but we used to have a Husky. Now all we have is this. Does your community have a Fresh & Easy store yet?

A typical Denny's restaurant. Why is fire hot instead of cold? -
^ I hope she doesn't read TPR... We just got a Fresh&Easy store today. Rant: not enough parking. People were out there yelling at other drivers (one guy let out quite a stream of profanity when someone didn't move their car at his command). I just parked across the street and walked over. Hopefully once the store has been open awhile things will die down. Eric

Anyway, to continue... Yes, I do use a browser with a spell check, even though I don't need it. Do you use iTunes?
