Are you a nail biter?

[Rebecca]

YES. If I could change one thing about myself, I would quit biting my nails. But I just can't stop.

Do you like watching college sports? If so, what team(s)?

Re "*yawn*" becca

Yes -- Auburn University, Texas Christian University and sometimes I'll enjoy a Notre Dame or University of Texas football game.

And UNC, if we're talking basketball.

I'm mostly happy....still not ok with Arnold in office...but he's gonna have to swing our way if he wants anything done! Overall my faith in the American people is renewed...they are indeed as pissed off as I am about the war etc.

Yes, but only because Cheney's gonna be pissed.
He'll beat a bitch!


What's for lunch?

[monet2u]

what was the last vow you took?

[mere1975]

The only thing I can think of is that I vowed to contact the pet rescue organization where I got my dog if I couldn't take care of her, instead of giving her away to someone new. . .??

To flu shot or not to flu shot?

- Mere "I say flu shots, yes, and now my arm hurts" 1975

[monet2u]

Not to flu shot...cuz they're really only good for the very young and the very old...all the rest of us are usally healthy enought to fight it off. Plus, it piss me off they're actually shooting you full of the flu and praying they picked the right one for this season.



Do you take vitamins daily?

[mere1975]

No because the ones I have make my pee really yellow so I don't think I am absorbing much of the good stuff.

Did that just gross you out?

- Mere "pee pee" 1975

[squeezle]

no. i just experienced asparagus pee after dinner last night.


what is it in asparagus that makes it smell so much?

[monet2u]

from wikipedia

Some of the constituents of asparagus are metabolised and excreted in the urine, giving it a distinctive, mildly unpleasant odor. The smell is caused by various sulfur-containing degradation products (e.g. thiols and thioesters). Studies showed that about 40% of the test subjects displayed this characteristic smell; and a similar percentage of people are able to smell the odor once it is produced. There does not seem to be any correlation between peoples' production and detection of the smell.[1] The speed of onset of urine smell is rapid, and has been estimated to occur within 15-30 minutes from ingestion.[2]

The amino acid asparagine gets its name from asparagus, the asparagus plant being rich in this compound.

Even with the smell it's worth it, right?

[mere1975]

Yes, especially grilled asparagus.

Are there any other foods that make your pee smell?

- Mere "scallions, like the kind in Pei Wei/PF Chang's lettuce wraps" 1975

[monet2u]

hmmm not that I can think of....however, fresh cooked beets, turn your pee red, so don't get upset.


Can you believe I just splattered red sauce all over my white shirt?
