    Lämmchen's Workout Thread

    Today was a base run. I still struggle to keep my speed down to the rate it suggests, even with my legs really not wanting to do much after yesterday's sprints. I checked the charts for my run yesterday. The suggested workout would have fit 9 sprint intervals into about 5-6 miles. What I...

    Cheaters

    Leaving a relationship isn't necessarily a simple option, and if you get something from both your regular partner and the one with whom you are cheating there's a clear benefit to playing both sides. Of course there's always the chance it will come at a much higher cost but I guess that's the...

    Netflix password sharing crackdown

    I don't share passwords like that because it seems to open things up to abuse.

    Medical marijuana

    But it's not about protecting people and, even if it were, why does the law need to protect people from their own decisions? At what point do we accept that adults are allowed to make decisions even if other people think they are bad decisions? If it was about protecting people we'd have all...

    Medical marijuana

    And I'd stand by that. Why should we outlaw a plant? It may have benefits, drawbacks or both. Most things have both. If we can get some benefit from it, whether that's a medical benefit or a recreational enjoyment, and we are willing to accept any drawbacks as the price to gain the benefit, why...

    Lämmchen's Workout Thread

    Today's suggested workout was sprint repeats. The way my watch runs them makes them too easy - the actual sprints are hard but not long enough and the recovery times are too long. I often need to tweak them to avoid sprinting for the section where I cross the main road and for a couple of...

    Medical marijuana

    I don't recall saying either of those things. If it exists it isn't necessarily good for us. I wouldn't be first in line to eat belladonna, to give just one example, and something doesn't have to be harmless to be legal. From my first answer I mentioned "if it gives someone a benefit" - if that...

    Republican jockeying for Primary season is upon us.

    I think his crime is probably more likely to be Being Conservative While Being Black.

    Republican jockeying for Primary season is upon us.

    It certainly doesn't have to make sense. It seems that you live your own reality, unless they dislike the reality. So if you have well pigmented skin and vote Democrat then you are black. If you have well pigmented skin and vote Republican then, as Dopey Joe once said, "you ain't black". But...

    Medical marijuana

    There are some pretty nasty side effects of many other drugs that are available on prescription, as well as those available without prescription. Of particular note are the black-box warnings on antidepressants, that can cause "suicidal and homicidal ideations". Other psychotropic drugs can...

    Lämmchen's Workout Thread

    My wife wanted to walk so I went for a walk with her. I spent most of the walk feeling glad I wasn't running, my legs feel like weights today. I've been hauling stuff up and down stairs, tinkering with stuff around the house and cleaning up, and it feels like they've given everything they have...

    Pickles

    My wife makes some good pickles. My friend's dad makes some good pickles and every once in a while we get a jar or two. We don't buy pickles. There's no point when you can make them yourself and know exactly what goes into them.

    Medical marijuana

    Why would we oppose a medical treatment if it works? For that matter, if God gave us all the plants why would we oppose the legality of using it for other reasons, including recreational? Making it legal doesn't obligate anyone to use it and if it gives someone a benefit, real or imagined, what...

    Republican jockeying for Primary season is upon us.

    Because he is black it must surely follow that all the Democrats will vote for him. They are the ones who said back in 2008 that not voting for the black candidate was racist, after all. And Joe Biden is - horror - white, so obviously all the evils of racism are his fault.

    Dating after 30

    If someone hasn't had a single serious relationship by the time they are into their 40s there will probably be a reason why. A serious relationship doesn't necessarily mean a marriage.

    Fox urine? I've never even heard of a sensitivity to that before! I guess if they aren't in your yard you can't even do anything about them? My suggested run today is a 45-minute base intensity run. Yesterday I did a tempo level run (which was originally planned to be a base level run but I...

    Pulling the pin out

    Sometimes you just can't fix stupid. That said, is it possible the pin caught on something unexpectedly? It's not as if you'd expect to find a live grenade in a box of mementos, so if you suddenly found yourself holding a novelty pizza slicer with a curious thing hanging off of it you probably...

    Dating after 30

    I remember talking to a friend who was unexpectedly thrown into the dating game in his 40s when his wife decided she didn't want to be married any more. He struggled with the number of women who came with baggage, and I remember saying that anyone of an age to be interested in dating a...

    Republican jockeying for Primary season is upon us.

    I just remember all the talking heads were pretty much saying the same thing. It's been a while but from what I recall even the right-leaning media wasn't expecting Trump to win, although I could be wrong on that. Maybe the polls shifted right at the end.
