Well we live in a global economy. And the more people who watch the NFL the more networks, streaming services, etc want to air the product.


So they should continue to alienate their base?

Definitely don’t use a fish emulsion fertilizer - last time I did that all the neighborhood cats converged on my garden.

In case anyone was curious how it works:

quote:

This new drug works differently than currently available drugs, including oseltamivir (Tamiflu), zanamivir (Relenza), and peramivir (Rapivab). These older drugs inhibit the virus by blocking a viral enzyme called neuraminidase. In contrast, baloxavir inhibits a subunit of the viral polymerase, the enzyme responsible for influenza virus replication. Put more simply, baloxavir interferes with the ability of the flu virus to multiply, while the older drugs interfere with the ability of the flu virus to spread within the body. This different mechanism of action means baloxavir may be effective against strains of influenza A that are resistant to oseltamivir, the drug used most widely for treatment of influenza. Baloxavir is also active against strains of avian influenza ("bird flu").
I’m halfway through Welcome to Strongville and really liking it.

The “staircase” is fun and carries every workout is a nice bonus.
I have land near the Buffalo.

It’s gorgeous, but as someone born in LA I’ll point out:

-There’s no dirt. It’s rocks, and more rocks.
-Terrain is tough, and a 6 mile dirt road will surprise you.
-Ticks are insane

Add hawks, eagles, and my own dogs to the mix.

When I'm in the office I actually wait until traffic dies down, usually not leaving until 6-6:15.


This.

I spent too many years fighting traffic to rush home in a ball of stress. Now I let everyone clear out, spend the extra time catching up in peace and quiet.

One thing that worked for me was nerve flossing, YouTube has a lot of videos on it. Basically your muscle gets tight on the nerves.


Nerve flossing is great
I’m not sure you need to go to a Dr and a neurologist is probably overkill unless you really want a conduction study.

Top Things I’m Betting On:
-Tight chest, subclavius, pec minor. Manifesting as minor thoracic outlet syndrome. Scalene tightness maybe.

-Tight forearms making it even worse.

-Trap tightness making it even worse.

You could certainly have neck disc issues, but I doubt it.

Really recommend looking up self myofascial release + stretching for the above. Try it for an hour before bed and see if it helps. If not, head to the doctor.

You still going? Definitely pack accordingly in case you get stuck somewhere.
I think Indiana wins, but Miami is just so damn physical it’s hard to imagine them getting dominated without repeatedly turning it over

Let’s be honest - If you show up as the opposition at a protest and have to use that weapon in defense, nothing good happens next. You almost certainly go to jail for seeking violence or some other cooked up charge. The local MN courts definitely make an example of you.
One of my customers has begun using AI for email replies, and I’m just not responding to this half assed crap.

MFA has been a bitch today, not getting codes
IMO you should always be getting the majority of your protein from meat - powders and manufactured dairy should be gap fillers, not the other way around.

Make lunch and dinner at least 6oz of meat.

Before bed is another window for cottage cheese, casein shake, yogurt and berries, etc.

Ditch the Fairlife and do 2 scoops of whey after your workout.

Agree with the other poster that Oikos Pro + ISO Pure would wreck my gut haha

Or… ask the owner if he wants to stop making money in the last hour of operation


If employees need to stay later than planned because of your last minute meal, he’s actually losing money having folks wait around to clean up after you.

Train Heroic, pick a program and roll.
I’d be curious to see a “vested” system where money becomes available after 3yrs at the same school.
Finishing a long yardwork session, standing there admiring the fruits of your labor and your dominion over nature - this is definitely up there.

Driving the scenic byway 12 is a must. I learned about it here and it’s absolutely amazing.


The key to TRULY appreciating this drive is allowing yourself to enjoy the changes in elevation. Stop, walk in the Escalante River and absorb that red rock environment. Past Boulder, stop in the mountains and spend time in the Aspens and wildflowers (may is still early though). As you drop into Capital Reef, really appreciate that change
