Re: Cholesterol - is lower better? or does it just need to stay below a specific threshold? - 7 weeks ago

A little off track, but niacin and fish oil cut my triglycerides in half the two times I’ve used them. It took about a month.

Re: Can you get Siri to show or not show your caller ID? - 7 weeks ago

No, I want to toggle Caller ID on and off by Siri instead of going to Settings and then scrolling down to phone and the clicking Caller ID and the changing the button if it needs changed. Like “Hey Siri, turn caller ID off.” She always says “Sorry,I can’t do that.”

Re: Can’t find a mattress without memory foam anywhere. - 7 weeks ago

I’m in Arkansas. There’s a Mattress Firm 1.5 hours away. They have one-sided inner springs without memory foam (so he says; I bet something falls through.)

Can’t find a mattress without memory foam anywhere. - 7 weeks ago

I want a double-sided old-school inner-spring mattress for around $600 that don’t expand out of a box that you buy from a store and try it out and carry it home in a pickup. Nobody has them.

Quotewurm I think we tried it once, but unsuccessfully. Probably worth a try again, although everyone in the family seems onboard with zoodles, too. Thanks. It’s not really a substitute for spaghetti; it’s its own thing. I Iike it OK.

I’ve always wondered how viable billboards are, money wise. I think they are effective.

I will never take a statin. My mother and two of her brothers had terrible muscle problems with it. My mom only found out what the problem was when her doctor figured out his muscle problems were from statins.

I’ve always liked North Carolina. It’s pretty like northwest Arkansas but has better education, hospitals, and more money. I’m from southwest Arkansas.

Re: todays 1st world problem - EZ re-seal bags - 7 weeks ago

QuoteFritz the EZ re-seal is poorly glued on food items. Perhaps there isn't a strong enough "food quality" glue available. The things always peel off before the bag is empty unless you're very gentle every time you open. Except A&H Baking soda 13lb sack. But I get to re-use the myriad of rubber bands gathered from fresh produce. I never bought them because I figured that wo

Re: I don't want to go full-on keto. - 7 weeks ago

Be aware. I saw some “Keto Bread” at the store. It had 12 grams of carbs per slice. Many breads have 15-16. So it’s not much help.

Mix a thinly sliced zucchini with your pasta if you can’t cut it out. Sorry about the dump cobbler. I made some last night. I’ve got to stop that.

Re: Un-United Methodist Church - 8 weeks ago

I think there are two types of Lutherans. I think the conservative wing is the Missouri Synod. This is not google-worthy to me. Someone can hopefully expand on this.

Re: F/U on capacitor for HVAC - 8 weeks ago

QuoteSpock If I remember correctly, 4 tabs = common (power in), 3 tabs = HERM and 1 or 2 tabs = Fan. Right. Fan is 2. CPT is 1. I think CPT is new and doesn’t apply to me. I guess Common has been moved to the center. I didn’t see 1 tab on the old capacitor so got confused and gave up.

Re: F/U on capacitor for HVAC - 8 weeks ago

It has colors on the terminals. Green = fan, white=herm, orange=CPT and black(in center)=common. But none of the correspond to the existing wire colors hooked to my current capacitor. Also the CPT is supposed to be ignored according to something I read. The fan has 2 tabs, herm has 3, CPT has 1 and common (in the middle and black) has 4.

Arkansas is heading into the trap. They lower taxes every year and it takes either 2/3 or 3/4 to raise them. Sarah Huckabee will put us over the edge.

F/U on friend who OD’ed on water - 8 weeks ago

He had high blood pressure of 186/120. His nurse friend said drinking a lot of water “might bring it down.” He said he drank about two gallons during the day.
