Happy anniversary Wngsprd and Mrs.

A cool thing is that studies have found that gout suffers are a good bit smarter than average, at least there is a bright side but I doubt that will make you feel better. :) Ed

I must be brilliant then!

That's a good looking car, Randy. But the only Thunderbird I'd want would be the 1957 model. I've always thought that was the best looking thunderbird ever made. And the last Thunderbirds made (2002-2005) were the ugliest ever made.
I agree with you Bird, I owned a 58 and a 64 convertible, both were cool cars, but not my favorites by any means.

I googled gout and intelligence and got this.:D

Ed didn't you say you have not had gout since your plant based diet. Does that make you more intelligent since you found your cure or less intelligent since you are no longer an intelligent gout sufferer. What exactly did the study say?

My younger brother has had gout for many years. But his diet is terrible. When he remodeled his kitchen, I asked him why bother? You can put pizza boxes on anything....

Good evening all. 54F for the start, overcast, windy. Cold front had already passed, temps dropped all day, overcast most of the day, windy all day, and low temp of 36F at midnight. Chapel this morning, made wife breakfast, and worked on conserving energy the rest of the day, mixed in with some football.
Happy Anniversary Mr & Mrs Billie :drink:
prayers foe all.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO MR AND MRS WNGSPRD!

The weather guessers were right. This morning the temps were in the mid teens, barely got up to 40. I was outside putting up Christmas lights and got deeply chilled. Took a break and did a dump run. That got me warmed up briefly. Came home and did some more decorations and some more chilling. Called it quits around 4 pm. I'll finish up tomorrow.

I got the call confirming the time for the knee surgery on Tuesday. At least I'll have all the decorations up by then... I'm still hopeful that it will be an easy surgery and the problem will be fixed this time.

Everyone have a great start to the week. Prayers sent out for all.

33 right now...high is to be mid to upper 30's today. Winter storm coming in this evening into tomorrow. The prediction is 4-8 inches of snow...

Back to the grind....

Good morning. A couple of early showers have given me sufficient excuse to not go firewood collecting today, my back has had more than enough fun picking up and stacking logs these last few days (Ed, I've now got about 3 years supply in, which ought to comforting - except now I'm reluctant to light the fire as that will take me back down to only 2 years and 364 days :))

Wng, congrats on your 40th anniversary. You must be another who wakes up each day, never quite believing their luck.

Randy, your old Thunderbird is going to be a pretty rare sight in this country. Not quite as rare as I expected though, 20 to 30 have been registered for road use each year since 2014, no doubt helped by a thriving owners club.

LS, good luck for tomorrow.

30 and going to a high of 3F. Wind SSW 5 mph. The weather guy says 5-10 cm, but I think he gets his metric and imperial measurement all mixed up. He forecasts 10 cm, I plow 10 inches. Whats the diff you ask? Centimeters are smaller than inches. 2.54cm=1inch
I have been following this storm on NEXRAD, and we are going to get it. How much is anybodies guess.

LS, good luck with the knee tomorrow.
RNG, maybe today the powers that be will let you back into your castle?

Not all that much 'on the books' for today. Another conserve energy day.

Have a good day all

Don yes the plant based diet worked well on getting rid of gout, however you said one time about it being very hard if your wife does not support you in your diet. Mine does not, and hates the diet. She does not feel well eating starch, and we are already making a special diet for the boy so my diet was a constant source of little stresses between us. Because of this I was never able to do the diet as well as I should and am now off of the diet for some time.
The study was done by a major medical school and said that gout was more likely in people of higher IQ. Don't remember much more as it has been over 20 years. My Dr told me about it an I think looked it up. O and fasting is not a good thing for people with gout, it often brings on an attack. Ed

Thomas drive carefully in the snow and good luck with plow.

I'm waiting til 8am to call the Massey dealer, find out status of my tractor.
Hope you all have a great day.

45 and maybe showers going to 59.

Thanks for all the anniversary wishes.

Randy, I think it is admirable the way you have been able to find a buyer for your T-Bird overseas, negotiate a payment, and arrange to get it shipped.

LS, hope your surgery goes well tomorrow.

I need to order some solar LED Christmas lights for my barn. Old ones finally died. Be interesting to see how slow they arrive since they will be mixed in with so many cyber Monday orders.
 
   / Good morning!!!! #84,897  
Slight chance of showers then windy and colder in fact 35 to 40mph this afternoon

LS prayers for your surgery

Gout and diabetes make for hard food choices but my bp is in the low range

Prayers for all

Drinking first cup of coffee. 33° with snow and NE wind. Heading to 35° with more snow and wind. Will not be enough snow to plow. Visited Son and his family yesterday. Did not do Thanksgiving with them this year. Son had surgery last Tuesday and spent the holiday recovering. Dentist appointment this morning. Then back home to recover. No other plans.

LS, prayers for your surgery tomorrow and best wishes for a fast recovery.

RNG, hope todays is the day you return home. Miss your rebuild reports.

Ed, the only thing I could find about gout and smartness. :confused3: Was with making the right choices on diet and lifestyle. :dance1: Of course that can apply to many things in life. :D

Drew, have they already picked up your tractor/s?

Good Morning All.

Drew, have they already picked up your tractor/s?
no, they'll do that when they deliver the new one, later this week.
Appt now set for tomorrow morning to inspect tractor/equip and close deal.

Good morning! 38˚ partly cloudy heading to 55˚.

LS we will be thinking of you in surgery tomorrow and pray your knee repair is successful.

Ed, That gout study sounds interesting, if you ever remember any key information and can locate it send it my way. Sometime you wonder why they do a particular study????

Ed, your wife does not know to how lucky she is to be married to a heart patient that agrees to be on a plant based diet. There are so many wives and kids that wish their loved one would recognize the cure to heart disease. I know my sister-in-law and nephew and I think of it every day when it comes to my deceased younger brother. There are improvements every day and I see now that California hospitals have to offer a plant based option on their menu. Also, in the works, is that medical schools will have to teach their doctors about nutrition and the role food plays in diseases. Many doctors are clueless and it's because they have never been taught and have not seen the research and it is not finically beneficial for the pharmaceutical companies. Another thing is their patients would probably change doctors before changing their diet at this point in history. You have to remember the research on cigarettes was out 50 years before the surgeon general and general public accepted that cigarettes were harmful. Just in our lifetime it has gone from ash trays in every house to only smoking outside.
