Methinks Gary is extremely confused... no pet replaces those lost...
they are all additions to ones life. They all need forever homes...
methinks after reading all Gary's weakling alibies I can conclude that
he is supremely selfish. I doubt Gary was all that devoted to his
prior pets. I wouldn't want to be one of Gary's pets, I'd probably go
hungry. Think about it, while Gary procrastinates for over a year
what happens to all those critters who no one adopts... Gary is way
beyond selfish, Gary is heartless. I have no pity for anyone who
claims to care about critters but keeps putting off adopting because
it would interfere with their own comforts. Gary is NOT an animal
lover, Gary is a selfish self centered shit! How many miles are yoose
going to allow Gary to get out of his deseased ferret...

Maybe he should just stick with the rum. Pepsi's not keto at all.

Diet Pepsi never bothered me at all with low carb, but then I don't drink
many sodas.

*shudder* Diet Pepsi is perhaps the worst drink ever at least for me. I was
saddened to find out that the Mexican place we dine at almost weekly has
switched to Pepsi products. I made the mistake of just ordering "diet" when
they first switched. The waitress didn't tell us that it was Pepsi but the
glasses bore the name. I managed to drink about 1/4 of it only because I was
really thirsty. Thankfully they have good, plain iced tea.

My cat sometimes disagrees with me and she sure lets me know it. For
example, she does not like it when I'm answering emails and she wants to
play. She'll climb up the back of my chair and yell at me. Of course
when I'm ready to play she wants to take a nap.

Odd thing about me. I never drink soda at home but will sip on one while
at work. I buy diet orange drink in a 2-liter bottle. It will last me
about 2 weeks at work even though it goes flat after a day or two.

Actually, my work "bar" consists of 4 drinks available. Black coffee,
diet orange soda, V-8 juice and water.

Whenever I eat at a restaurant I always order a diet coke or pepsi. Odd
too as I only drink water with meals at home.

At least you understand that I'm not out for a replacement. There will
never be one.

Sheldon is old and seemingly turning senile lately. Or maybe it's the
vodka that he supposedly only has one or two a night.

When he goes off on a rant about me, does he even realize that he's
talking to a guy that paints houses for a living? ;-D

I've been meaning to ask you ... you said you drink iced water with mint?

Do you use fresh mint? How much to you use? Do you chop it?

I just grab a couple of fresh mint leafs and rub them between my fingers to
release the flavor before dropping in the water.

I just grab a couple of fresh mint leafs and rub them between my fingers to
release the flavor before dropping in the water.

Yes, I find it to be very refreshing.

Keto doesnt matter. He has no blood sugar problems nor is he
overweight.

To answer your question, nothing "happened" to sun dried tomatoes.
They're still around. Still available in most grocery stores. Jarred,
dried, whatever. Don't know where to find them or if they stock them?
Ask customer service.

Whether or not you want to buy them or use them for anything is an
entirely different question.

Even easier. We drank so much bubbly water during a hot summer that we
bought a little bubble device. You just have to replace the gas
canister every couple of months. No more carting of bubbly water.

My mint patch is now gone but i used to crush up 3 leaves really well
and add them to a glass and nothing else was needed.

Who knows how many ferrets die every day because Sheldon keeps a

Certainly makes sense if you drink a lot of it. OTOH, if you served it
to me, I'd be stirring or shaking it to get the bubbles out. We don't
drink soda every often but once in a while I like a good root beer or
cream. I'll pour room temperature soda over a lot of ice for maximum
bubble release. A little is ok, but not a lot.

Agreed. I never really wanted to adopt another pet after my dog Sampson
died. He lived with me for 18 years.

Then a cat (Persia) barged right in and set up housekeeping. 16 years
later she died. She moved here with me. I really did not want another
pet. Until I found out Buffy's owner died and she needed a home. So,
here she is. She's so sweet.

Still, there is no reason to insist anyone adopt a pet before they are
ready.

I have Rubbermaid Chug bottles. I just throw some mint leaves in there, then
some ice, then more mint. I suppose I could bruise the leaves for more
flavor but I just give it a shake and that seems to be enough. Then I fill
with water.

I also drink tea, seltzer, G2, diet soda and various other kinds of water.

And again... You are assuming that all stores have Customer Service. They
don't. Also assuming that Customer Service will have an answer. They will,
but it's generally the wrong one. Add in the fact that you may have to stand
there for 10-15 minutes while they call someone to help you. This happened
to me the other day. We were under the threat of a government shutdown and
they said if it happened (which it did not), we could not buy or redeem
lottery tickets. I had some to redeem so stood there, envisioning my hair
growing gray. After about 5 minutes, I finally managed to find a bagger and
asked if he could call someone over. He didn't but about 5 minutes later, he
asked the cashier to. She did and nobody came. Eventually, some manager
looking type who was pushing a cart of bagged ice noticed me standing there
and came to wait on me.

I don't want them. But they used to be everywhere. Restaurants and cooking
shows featured them too. I just never see them mentioned any more and I see
no more displays in the produce section.

If soda = soda water = bubbly water, then what do they leave out to
make it diet soda?

Or soda = pop = soft drink?

I am sure they do

Some people complain that others don't take rescue animals, others go
overboard and take too many.

I am sure I have recounted this before, but my latest rescue was found in a
regular house with 42 dogs and 2 cats The woman had died and they were
all starving.

I would love to take more than one, but this dog is terrified of all other
dogs, which is understandable. Anyway I couldn't manage more than 2.

At the rescue centre they had put her in with one of the other dogs from the
house and it bullied her dreadfully. So that is what she grew up with.
