Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #154: Olympics

Odds are that the truth about the danger falls somewhere between the two extremes.

Your body already handles a number of chlorinated compounds every day and provided that your consumption is low enough odds are that you will not see any adverse reactions. No new compound is without risk, and if you consume an excess amount of splenda, particularly over a multi-year period, the odds of having some adverse health effect increase significantly.

Personally, I try and avoid artificial sweeteners as much as possible, but I'm not at all concerned about the occasional or even chronic low level consumption of splenda (or any other artificial sweetener).

My rule of thumb is that if you wouldn't consume an equal amount of the full sugar version, you shouldn't consume that much of the artificially sweetened version either.
Too much of the artificial sweeteners can have a laxative effect. The only sweetener to me that doesn't cause excess gas is Stevia.

Conversion between my boss and I to end out the day?

Boss "Even though you just got a new desktop you're going to be getting a new laptop in the next couple weeks" I just got my knew desktop on Wednesday fyi
Me "Really am I going to be traveling more cause that's really the only reason I would need a laptop?"
Boss "Cant say for sure but probably"

Awesome

Just got back to the motel after a great dinner, miniature golf with my nieces and then a Dairy Queen run. I love Cape Cod. Sadly, the weather tomorrow looks crappy.

Drink In My Hand coming on the playlist at 3:30 on a Friday afternoon has slaughtered my productivity for the rest of the day/week.

I was thinking that thought at about 11am this morning. That's how many f*s I gave today. Previously denied vacation for this afternoon, AND ended up getting out at about 7:30? Ugh.

Ouch....that's a pis-sa.



Bet he taped an aspirin to it and completed his Gordy Howe hat trick by pummeling the cheating lad. :D

That would be awesome, but I can't see goldy's spawn doing something like that. He'd probably slap the offender with his glove and challenge him to a duel. ;)
