  • More studies are finding a link between cancer and triclosan. Triclosan is the active ingredient in most antibacterial cleansing products. I've never been a germophobe anyway, but now I'm very anti-triclosan.

    Just like with potting soil, when you kill germs on your hands you kill bennies too.

    On a side note, antibacterial products are contributing to the resistant strains we are starting to see. They don't work any better than plain old soap anyway

    yeah thats what my comment meant. Its always just a matter of time before nature catches up and fixes the issue
    Watched Big Hero 6 with a friend tonight. A chilehead was clearly involved with the script. Good movie, IMO.

    Actually, this was one movie where 3D would be excellent. We saw it in 2D and I may see it again but in 3D.
    geeme
    geeme
    And note that I am of the opinion that 3D is most often just meh.

    If I had contacts to switch out with, I would have went. Other wise it's usually a headache, and as you say, meh.
    So glad I'm not at my client's office today or Monday. Mandatory shut-down of the building this afternoon in advance of the protest.Hoping it stays peaceable, though doubtful it will.

    PT - yes.
    Good thing is it didn't turn into mayhem, plus there were far fewer people than anticipated. Kind of wish I had gone to show my support, as they clearly have a valid complaint.

    Brought 3 contributions for the meal. My daughter warned the other guests that one or more might have hot peppers in them. (Of course they all did.) Loved that, after a couple bites, one said to me "you are coming to my house for Christmas and you have to bring this. Don't change anything!"

    Win some, lose some, as they say. That sounds like a definite "lose some" moment. I'm surprised the smell didn't stop her as soon as she opened the container, or at least as soon as she started pouring it into the measuring cup. And used oil never looks the same as fresh oil. Hmm… Did you at least try one?

    Well, lets just say cooking wasn't exactly her strong point. She's much better now though, and is getting into it more and more. And no, we didn't try them. They went straight from the oven into the trash.
    geeme

    I was going to admire your bravery if you had tried one! Glad to hear her cooking has improved.

    Christmas shopping pretty much done. Wrapping pretty much done. Baking for TG pretty much done. Except for work, pretty much time to sit back and enjoy the holidays. What is this "work" thing, anyway???

    3 done, 15 more to go. Not counting friends. 500 mile round trip to the big box and malls.
    Row 5 seats tonight, right to the side of one of the baskets. Got some perfect vids of two of the three teams I'm following. Good time!
    Disappointing to get a familiar brand of corned beef to find it overly-salty, unlike in the past. Will be making hash with the rest of it, heavy on potatoes and cream.
    geeme

    Not canned. Giant Eagle store brand has consistently been less salty in the past. No mo. May have to break down and start making my own.

    Seem like they all are going crazy with salt on everything now days.I bought a ham had to wash it off and still was to salty.

    Nothing wrong with some good hash, of coarse this one might be some high dollar stuff.
    So cool that a world record holder on the other side of the globe took time to write to me today and even sent the video with the controls enabled that I requested.

    Sorry for the confusion THP, this is a world record holder in swimming butterfly. YouTube has a vid of him swimming but w/o speed control for the vid. I wanted to better analyze his technique to help improve my own.

    ... Wha? As someone who lives in a shitty town called Bakersfield, I'm offended that there isn't a Bakersfield Tacos in Bakersfield, or indeed, anywhere near California (Though there are other Bakersfields..)

    And believe it or not, no home-grown condiments. Just straight Taco Bell. Go figure.
    What is better than coming home to the smell of chiles and herbs humming away in the dehydrator? I feel for y'all whose families won't let you dry chiles in your houses.

    I use mine in the house, and we only get the smell, not anything else. I have dried supers most of the time without any problems. The bomb comes if I boil any of the hot peppers..
    geeme
    geeme
    Yeah, boiling probably takes the cake for all of us. There's nothing quite like spicy steam to get the nose and eyes running like water spouts.

    I normally would say it's wonderful but dehydrating 23 pounds of Judy's Reaper pods was actually too much. Damn are they ever potent. I think it's what would happen if you pepper sprayed every room in your house.
    How odd is it that I have tons of Congo Trinidads ripe/ripening, yet no annuums have fully ripened yet? Weird weather year fo sho.

    My annuums kinda sucked this year, too.

    Oh, I haz podz, they're just all either green or just starting to change. Weird.
    After getting the oscillating fan into the "grow room" AFTER putting all the plants in it, I think I qualify for the balance beam gymnastics event at the Olympics, complete with raised-arm landing.
    Plants mostly inside. Time to rearrange some furniture so I can bring more in.

    I have my reaper and Naga indoors now, the joy of single living and the final pods of the year...hahaha
    geeme

    Nice. My 5 Congo Trins and Aji Crystal came inside today, along with thyme and oregano. Hopefully the others can hold on until I rearrange things a bit. Well, except the ones I'm going to toss, anyway. Such a weird weather year.
    Making chilorio. Wish I could smell it, but my node id all bwocked up...

    Really spicy food is more effective than pseudo ephedrine. Whenever I get a cold I like to make a huge bowl of ramen with a dried bhut crumbled in it.
