That's a new one here - pills that taste like pizza - they'll have to work on that. What kind of pizza? I'd go for ham and pineapple flavor.

I wish for all of us to get stronger as a community in meeting our needs.
I also wish for some good laughs along the way too - woke up today to see an online picture of the iconic large sign high up in the Santa Monica hills that overlooks the LA area altered from HOLLYWOOD to HOLLYWEED today!! In honor of CA legalizing pot in November!

Me, (I'm talking to you, not me - oh dear, have to say it again more carefully - I'm talking to everyone here - there!) I took a picture of the online picture.
Many spent the morning today going to snap pictures of themselves with the altered sign.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — No, Los Angeles residents, it wasn't your hangovers playing tricks on you. The Hollywood sign really did read "HOLLYWeeD" for a few hours on New Year's Day.
Police were investigating Sunday after a prankster used giant tarps to turn two of the iconic sign's white Os into Es sometime overnight.
The vandal, dressed in all black, was recorded by security cameras and could face a misdemeanor trespassing charge, said Sgt. Robert Payan.
The person scaled a protective fence surrounding the sign above Griffith Park and then clambered up each giant letter to drape the coverings, Payan said.
The prank may be a nod to California voters' approval in November of Proposition 64, which legalized the recreational use of marijuana, beginning in 2018.
Hikers and tourists in the hills spent the morning snapping photos of themselves in front of the altered sign before park rangers began removing the tarps.
"It's kind of cool being here at the moment," Bruce Quinn told KABC-TV. "I thought we came to see the Hollywood sign, not the' Hollyweed' sign. But hey it's OK with me!"
While attention-grabbing, the prank was not exactly original. Forty-one years ago to the day — Jan. 1, 1976 — a college student similarly altered the sign, using curtains to make it read "HOLLYWEED."
Cool----Steve

BTW- I was listening to this, not watching the video. Just saw, as I was closing down again, a guy in a girls bathing suit running on the beach, so I have no clue what else is on there.
HA!
I was sharing it for the SONG, not the video. But if it is a good video, then that's what I was doing.

My wish is for better diagnostic tools and better treatment plans. Oh, and also that 'normal' docs will get a clue.

Steve,
Love all the pics you post, keep 'em coming.
Tincup,
I love the song "Toes". I used to play it when I was at work.
Oh yeah, this is a thread for wishes. I wish I got paid for sitting on my ass.

Bartender Bonnie, So sorry you are having such a rough time. Yes, Tincup is a gem--a bit loco, but we like keeping her around.
Some ideas she gave me when I was going through a hard time included naming each potatoe in a sack of potatoes and painting each nail a different color; I don't remember the rest of them, but they made me smile, too.
I'm glad you found this forum. We are here for you.

Yep, you're loco in la cabeza. It's okay, I admit I'm loco too. And my toenails were a piece of art and the potatoes were happier with names.

Think of the options for potato coloring - any color - any pattern - you could paint little red spots on your potatoes just to remind yourself to be glad you don't have the measles...(if potatoes got the measles, would they call it the peasles? And I haven't even had one tequila today...)
Spraypaint them Day-glo colors - how to find your potatoes in the dark!
This is a true story - I was visiting in NYC once and was visiting some apt at nite, lights were out, and little day-glo flashes were streaking across the room - the walls - the ceiling - was I hallucinating?
No, these folks had rounded up a sizable bunch of roaches and spraypainted them day-glo colors - it was actually pretty trippy.

I'm going to paint one to look like a roach that glows in the dark, one that looks like a shot of tequila, one that says HOLLYWEED, one with red dots, one with ten toenails that are all different colors . . . . And when visitors come over, I will introduce each potato by name.

Me, you're a marvelous potato artist, or should we call you spudhead?
Thanks, Steve, for documenting me's potatoes!
They look so spiffy that I suggest you get them preserved with potato shellac immediately.

And add a price of prime rib with a side of asparagus ?

Ok girls, I found him first. Stay away! He's mine and you can't have him!
I love his summer pictures, especially in the winter, but that prime rib just won me over.
And me, not me you me, someone said.... "should we call you spud head"?
I kinda like that. Easier than calling you me, not me you me.

Noting your first entry here at the top, I think we're making some progress with the first-ever-convened tickborne illness working group meeting, and some of the research that's being funded! Onward!
