    Weightlifting, the head game side of it

    I've forgotten to add a plate on one side of a bar, I've pulled a big plate off a bar forgetting that there was a smaller one I didn't see in front of it (I know a guy who did that resulting in a broken foot), and I've also added more weight than I thought on occasion. I blame the young women...

    Why is John McCain still in office?

    I keep asking myself that about pretty much all of them. Term limits are badly needed.

    Olive Oil Compound Hydroxytyrosol Lowers Body Fat

    I read somewhere that a good extra virgin olive oil will have a fruity odor. When I opened my first bottle of California Olive Ranch extra virgin, there was a fruity aroma. In all the years I had been buying other brands (the popular ones), not 1 bottle ever had that aroma. IMO, the flavor...

    Give up my guns?

    So when semi-auto handguns and rifles are outlawed and successfully removed from society, what will the next phase be when the children are being killed by 6 cylinder revolvers and shotguns (for the sake of this question, forget that this does happen now though with less news coverage)? Will...

    Look like ET could not keep many old members actively posting anymore. Why?

    For some reason this made me think of the term "cow tipping".

    Look like ET could not keep many old members actively posting anymore. Why?

    Precisely (though I'm not sure how long it takes to become a senior member). Still, on occasion, it's nice to engage in debate, answer a question, or add a comment from time to time.

    Low-Carb Diet Can Cure Type-2 Diabetes

    I'll have to pick my relative's brain some more. I didn't realize Gann's site wasn't more detailed. I know that my relative tells me that he has to limit certain types of carbs, and counts his carbs in units (I think his unit is 15g). I joke with him about the "diet of hope". I tell...

    Low-Carb Diet Can Cure Type-2 Diabetes

    What are your thoughts on this diet? Seems like there may be similarities...maybe more of a controlled type of carb diet than strictly low, but interesting anyway. https://dietofhope.org/ I know someone on this diet, and they are getting good results.

    One gram of Ginger Daily Prevents almost every Chronic Disease

    I take ginger daily. I peel it and juice it in my Omega. ( I also juice greens, beets, and carrots...all separately...no fruit). I'll add between 1/8 and 1/4 tablespoon of the ginger juice to my coffee or with a glass of diet Canada Dry. Only once a day. Pure ginger juice if VERY...

    CNN’s Shameful Town Hall Is A Clarifying Moment On Guns

    I didn't watch the town hall, but I'm curious. Did anyone question the failures of law enforcement along the entire chain of events that culminated in the shooting, or was it strictly a beat down on NRA?

    Civil discourse on gun control

    In order for criminals to not have these guns either, you will need to find a way to keep them from entering the country illegally after you remove them here. What is your proposal for that?

    Modern Trader Magazine

    They made changes after going from 'Futures" to "Modern Trader". I considered leaving for reasons not relevant to discuss, but I've decided to stay with them for a time. Still a good read, occasionally a great read...depending on one's viewpoint. ;)

    What is special/unique about Al Brooks' strategy

    Hey man, I have also cut back on my habit, but glad you're still in the forum! :thumbsup: Mostly lurking these days, but trading more successfully...and at the risk of a beating, possibly because I studied the guy who is the subject of this thread.

    What are some useful things learned from Al Brooks price-action books?

    After some consideration I decided to answer the OP, but first, I found this comment by Xela consistent with my thoughts regarding the course (or just the books). I don’t see Brook’s system as a strategy but as a series of observations explaining multiple possibilities to any combination(s) of...

    Hard boiled egg

    Heathens and education in the same sentence? :wtf: :D My biggest issue actually is the time it takes the eggs to get back to the boil I want when I toss them in the water...usually a dozen at a time. That's when I start the clock, so 13 is probably closer to the total time, or maybe a bit...

    Hard boiled egg

    I use considerable salt with mine...11 minutes at slow boil after getting the eggs to room temp prior, then immediately into ice water. Some whites stick to the shell but most don't, but the eggs that break while boiling do peel the easiest.;) I don't hard boil them too much anymore because...

    Gym etiquette

    I think heavy perfume on individuals in the gym is the worst, especially when it gets on the gear. Can also be quite annoying during cardio.

    Salmon: Wild Caught vs. Farm Raised. Which is best?

    My local sea food outlet has farmed (not sure of the type), mostly from Faroe Island, which is what I've been eating (have read some concerning material about farmed salmon from there since this thread began), but they had some really good looking wild caught sockeye from Copper River. Going to...
