  1. Theoretically, I believe Auschwitz was designed to hold about 50,000 prisoners-keeping in mind that most of these prisoners were destined for the gas chambers. Something that holds 100,000 people is either going to be a city in itself or horribly overcrowded.
  2. I'm reminded of something a former coworker used to say- everything in moderation, including moderation. It's worth it to treat yourself once in a while, as long as you make healthy choices about 85% of the time.
  3. That's something that I never understood either. A part of me doesn't want to understand something so ugly and awful.
  4. Which the Nazis came over here to study, and replicate in Germany. Isn't it lovely to be a leader? 😉
  5. I've always looked older than I was but on the whole I'm told I'm healthier than most women in their late 50s. I would say the key thing is keep moving. That's easy for me since I have an active job and live in a place where I can walk everywhere-and since I don't own a car, that's how I mostly get around. It also doesn't hurt that I love vegetables and can no longer tolerate most sweet things. I've also done weight training since I was in my teens. Things I would tell my younger self: don't overdo it with the heavy lifting, don't starve yourself to lose weight, and for the love of the Flying Spaghetti Monster don't stress yourself by trying to please people that you don't like anyway.
  6. Or maybe she's just plain cuckoo.
  7. Percocet had me praying to a porcelain god, and decided pain wasn't so bad, after all. OxyContin had no effect on me whatsoever. I count myself lucky.
  8. Oh wow, I haven't thought of that movie in decades. I actually liked it at the time. Gives new meaning to "Don't trust anyone over the age of thirty."
  9. Similarly, my taste in music is closer to the Gipsy Kings than Bad Bunny. I enjoyed the show-especially since Ricky Martin has always been a guilty pleasure of mine (along with Lobo and similar 70s artists). I thought it was well done.
  10. It made for good background noise. It's probably best I'm not back at work until Tuesday since I'm kind of glad the Seahawks won. The game itself was far from the best one I've ever seen.
  11. Deregulatory also sounds like we're on the road back to smog alerts and rivers catching fire.
  12. And because the Manhattan elite never accepted him as one of them.
  13. He really ought to be Adult Rock by now.
  14. Saddest part of all is that they are most likely happy that they're hurting people-especially 'libruls.' I have to say I'm not convinced that karma exists. I also have to admit I hope it does.
  15. This is one of those things that in order for us to maintain the type of country we want, we will have to work hard for the rest of our lives. And anger is a good thing if it motivates us to try to make things better for others. Does this mean we can't have any fun? Of course not. It just means, as one of my favorite passages says, that to everything there is a season.
