Re: I'm obessed about learning languages

Here's one tip that I don't think anyone mentioned: watch TV and/or movies in French. There is a special box that allows you access to many different channels in French (requires subscription). I find that just watching the news every day helps. Or you can simply watch French films and try to avoid ...

Re: I'm obessed about learning languages

Re: Amazon fire stick

So I've been using this thing (firestick + kodi) for a few days, and the quality is very spotty. There are times when everything comes in very clearly (daytime usually), without delay, but in the evening (when usage is probably high) I can't get anything. If I can get a stream to load at all, it's v...

Did you get a jailbroken one? I just ordered one on Ebay for about $60. From what I understand you can get first run everything on it.

Re: Come out Come Out you Junkies

Norco was great for pain; had a fracture a few years ago that felt wonderful after a 10/325. Never did anything recreationally for me. Coke a few times, as well as psychedelics as a youngster. The only one of those I'd want to try now would be shrooms. Anybody have a contact? Weed is a nice lo-cal a...

Re: Statins - Just Gimme Some Truth!

They're generally pretty well tolerated. The questions are: what other co-factors do you have? (HTN, DM, etc) How high are your numbers? If the TC is 220, and you have no other factors, then no need. But if you're at 400 and you're also diabetic, well, then, get popping.

Re: learning a language

To really learn a language, try this: First, marry someone who is a native speaker of that language, and agree that each parent should speak their own language EXCLUSIVELY to any kids you have. Next, listen. Then, watch movies and TV shows in that language. Also, go to many social engagements where ...

Highly recommended. Amazon Prime series of 10 episodes (so far). Beautiful locations, plenty of extreme violence, plot twists, with a smattering of boobs.

Re: Blood Meridian. Did any of you know about this?

Great book. Not easy to transfer to screen. I need to ask: Did those guns really sound like popguns, or does the sound quality just suck. And, I would think that Apaches in 1850 might be a bit leaner. Those boys were fat.

Re: Bodybuilder belly

My understanding is that with steroids, or maybe GH, there is no differentiation between voluntary and smooth muscle. Consequently, the muscular layer of the small intestine grows as well.
Anyone with better knowledge please correct me if wrong.
