I came back today just to see if I might have been wrong about you months ago when I'd made my assumptions about you as a person. <br /><br />You go around this world thinking you're better than everyone else. You look down your nose at everything and everyone. That is obvious by your writing. <br /><br />You act as if all the world is a zoo exhibit or perhaps a freakshow at the circus. You are there to poke and prod the poor animals and freaks for your own perverse pleasure while you publically judge them and belittle them safely from afar.<br /><br />I can't wait for the day that some blogger puts your life on the spot and asks his/her reads if your life running around judging people was a life worth living. I suspect most will say no. Some will say that you are living it the way you want though and that it's OK... <br /><br />I can't begin to explain how your type make my skin crawl.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31383424.post-89014212199514440532011-12-11T13:48:10.231-07:002011-12-11T13:48:10.231-07:00==========

Statistically, there is an optimum alcohol intake of 1/2 - 1 drink/day for women and 1-2 drinks/day for men."<br />==========<br />We need to make a distinction between "chronic" drinkers and chronic "drunks." Anyone who drinks at all can affirm they will be far from ever getting "drunk" at this daily level considered "optimum". Any man who weighs 200 pounds could have two drinks and still be legal to drive in any state.<br />==========<br />Females have less tolerance for alcohol for at least two reasons = lower body weight AND their bodies metabolize alcohol slower. My book says that Japanese may have the lowest tolerance of all -- their bodies reacting as if on antibuse; making them violently ill if they consume too much. Thus some of them have become masters at the fine art of "maintaining the buzz" -- drinking just barely enough to feel the buzz . . . and then maintaining it with tiny sips from small cups of warm Sake.<br />==========<br />It's clear that sustaining a low-cost, traveling lifestyle is much easier without the purely optional expense of alcohol. We make our own homemade wine for about 50 cents a bottle . . . does anyone out there traveling make their own? With the constant jostling, I can imagine that any level of clarifying would be the biggest hurdle but that's only an aesthetic negative. <br />==========<br />sail4free<br />==========Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13585969582693570200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31383424.post-63087668972404542352011-12-10T20:31:41.036-07:002011-12-10T20:31:41.036-07:00In the Dark Ages, alcohol was the drink de jour.

Statistically, there is an optimum alcohol intake of 1/2 - 1 drink/day for women and 1-2 drinks/day for men. Mormons really hate that fact and deny it. (But then they believe in all sorts of things without a shred of evidence to back it up. ;-)<br /><br />This guy has found a place with shelter but he doesn't care about living in a mess. It appears he has a friend. Who are we to say he is bad or good? If he is harming no one, then leave him alone and leave the judgements. This may well be HIS ideal life - he is free after all.<br /><br />I have wondered if the Troll of folklore is some sort of ancient memory handed down from the days of living with other human species like Neanderthals. But more likely, it would just be some unfortunates with deformations that triggered the tales. Any human who is outcast will grow to be suspicious of others, especially if he grows up being bullied for being different. And most creatures (human or not) prefer to have freedom to being taken care of and controlled.Tesajehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15965295812302989459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31383424.post-78842777479437853932011-12-09T05:26:40.949-07:002011-12-09T05:26:40.949-07:00My apologies to Randy farm lady..What irked me was...My apologies to Randy farm lady..What irked me was<br />His comment ""what I really wanted to see" etc...it provoked a reaction I've had to some of his posts where Randy,seems to me to be " exhibiting" some of these people and I've wondered how they'd feel if they read or viewed Randy's perception of them...but I realize now that what Randy does and posts is none of MY business..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31383424.post-80601042809950939952011-12-08T19:50:51.488-07:002011-12-08T19:50:51.488-07:00Oops!
