Part of the bot's name being angela took me on a trip down forum memory lane. Wasn't that poster who loved Pirlo named angela?
You got close there. Don’t say that name a third time lol
Coolest thing about the eclipse was how sudden the switch to totality was. For about an hour it gradually got darker and when we were maybe 85-90% to full dark, it was as if a switch was flipped.
It didn't really get dark here in the Heights. I felt Cushinged.
it was crazy! Idk about where you were, but by us all the babies in attendance started crying just as it was getting to totality. idk if that was bc everyone was "ooooh"ing or because they sensed the weird quick shift to darkness, but it was still cool
No babies in my small grouping, and didn't hear dogs barking either. But the birds went a bit crazy. I was in Watertown. They had a big event in their largest park, which we avoided. We just hung out on a grassy patch in a hotel/commercial development on the edge of town with maybe 3-4 dozen other people.
My wife works in a neuro floor at a major hospital, and the patients on the floor were freaking out around the time of the eclipse, although it didn't get that dark here. It made me wonder what natural forces are at work.
As a lifelong Vikings fan and a Michigan alum, I am not sure I have had this level of fan investment in any player, ever.
Go get us another one, J.J.
Change of lifestyle to healthier eating - went from 225ish in august/september to 192 this morning. Steady progress! (I'm 6'1)
Way to go,
Shwafta! I've been on the same path since my health crisis. Before my mother passed, I had ballooned up to almost 250 lbs. on zappers and snacks. By the time I was hospitalized last August, I was down to 151lbs. and looked a fright -- full Duck Dynasty beard down to my chest, sunken cheeks, basically a walking corpse. Since discharge on Sept. 1 I've been eating right (for the most part -- I cheat a little on game days), laying off the booze and soft drinks, getting proper rest, and now I'm exercising again, which is always huge for me. Now, I feel terrific. This is me yesterday:
Which is incredibly ironic. By all measures, I should be in pretty rough shape right now, given my circumstances and the normal course of these things. By the odds I should be on death's door. But I'm probably healthier now than I've been since I was a kid.
So, keep it up. You're doing great, and it will only get better. Give your body a chance and it will do amazing things.
