Oscar Picks are open! Let me know if you notice any issues, since I was furiously entering everything since the announcement this morning.
Would anybody read a dedicated thread for my mini film reviews if I made one?
Aha! Continuation of yesterday's talk on food that causes cancer...

It's not just bread and potatoes. The word is, any food containing starch will give you cancer.

So according to W.H.O and the British FSA... bread, potatoes, rice, pasta, breakfast cereals, funguses (like mushrooms), fruit and vegetables.
Poor Bernie. To have to strike out on a new career at his age. I hope he makes it okay.
Just cancelled my Amazon Prime membership. $100 a year to be told - on two separate orders - that packages that were supposed to arrive today (you know, that 2 day "Prime" shipping) are delayed and that I have to wait until Friday before they'll do anything about it. Absolutely ridiculous and unacceptable.
Eggs are still bad, right?
Ha! Just saw a new article on a health benefit of coffee. See? I tell ya, every week it's a new flip on this one...

This came up in yesterday's Sunday roundtable

A doctor (Young Dr. Mike) had an article in Parade about all the healthy things he does everyday.

8-9 cups of coffee.

Um, really?
Wow... are any of those things decaf? I have only the one cup a day... but it's, like, a 20-ounce mug.
That joke makes no sense. Dogs can't talk. Sheesh.
The question is - "Which one of you is Fido?".
Simples.
