| The Lounge | 'New' Car Question | Sep 25 2009 03:37 (UTC) |

agreed spirochete. I've never heard anything but troubles with Audi's. My Dad had the sedan one for about a month. The electrical was messed up and the key wouldn't come out of the ignition. It was messed up and back it went. He has since stayed with the 7 series BMWs and not had problems. aren't Jags made by Ford now?

Try this out: http://autos.yahoo.com/car-compare/overview/? trimId0=16876&trimId1=17353 you can compare the exact year and model to see which one performs better. You can add the Infinity and Audi on there as well (just for fun), it lets you compare up to 4 cars... |

I would check into the warranties that come with the cars. I got a slightly used Volvo with 11,000 miles on it, and it was still covered under the 4 year/40,000 mile warranty, also comes with complementary road side assistance. I had to use that a few weeks ago because the battery died. Check into the perks, I don't know much about Merceces brand, but I know that the BMW has some sort of free scheduled maintenance and warranties involved which could be beneficial since both cars are expensive to maintain. The Infinity has the highest customer satisfaction rating out of all luxury vehicles. It also has the highest quality rating in buying used....(dream car as well...) I'm personally biased towards the BMW, but not the 3 series, or the Z's. I'd be in heaven with a 6 series coupe.

GAP and Old Navy have long sizes. Sometimes you have to dig. I know JCrew.com is kind of expensive, but if you check their sale page, they generally have reasonably priced long pants. That is where all of my work pants are from, some of them were only $19.99. |

I'll have to ask the Grandmother. Personally, after being away from the midwest, I think any thing from Meijer is gold. I would kill to go to Meijer right now! |

ha ha, Toledo use to be greaaaat back in the day, apparently...that is what my parents tell me. they met when they were working at the Jeep plant. ANYWAYS, the only thing I like about it now is Tony Pacos. Its a must do when visiting my Grandmother. Prob the only time I eat hot dogs, and they are so greasy and delicious. Might need to visit her soon now that Toledo has been brought up! got off topic...but anyways, love is a funny funny thing... kind of always happens when (and i guess where) you least expect it! |

throughout the whole ordeal, i never did figure out what was better; vodka or the pain pills. at least the vodka doesn't make you constipated... |

did you take any tylenol or motrin? I know it seems like it would be too weak, but sometimes it does help. elevation. ice? making someone wait on you hand and foot because you are too injured to walk sometimes makes you feel better. just saying... I blew out my achilles tendon last year. All I know is vicodin is good, norco is better, ice and elevation are amazing, and I am forever grateful to people who waited on me! |

I dip the toast in the yogurt. it takes longer to eat. bread doesn't get soggy, but still gets the moisture from the yogurt to soften it up. |

have you tried millet?? it is great, and high in iron. you can get puffed millet. it is like rice crispies, only with millet. i like it because it is gluten free and i don't feel deprived or like i am carb loading! I second the popcorn too! airpopped is great, you can flavor it any way you like, and it counts as a whole grain. |

I would have to say the dairy as well. I'm no doctor or nutritionist, but lactose is a problem for me, and if I have any, it is usually after lunch when I start bloating uncomfortably. I generally feel like my torso is going to explode if I cheat and have dairy. |

| Health & Support | Laxative Tea | Aug 04 2009 03:24 (UTC) |

honestly, I would try prunes before you tried the tea. I would drink it at night and wake up at 4 am and be on the toilet for over a half hour. It is also easy to become addicted to much like the over the counter laxatives. Then when you try to stop using it, you'll be more constipated than you were before you tried using it. Just be very careful, if you feel like your constipation is unhealthy consult your doctor about other ways of relieving it. |

Thanks for all the responses. Don't know why, but I trust the responses on here more than I do on any other websites! I feel like I am reading testamonials for diet scams or something when I read them off of generic drug description websites. Thanks again! |

this definitely happened to me. I was always around a 9.5 or 10 depending on the brand, and after losing about 40 lbs, have a closet full of heels that no longer fit. I have to get at most a 9 now. |

A really quick and easy way to prepare it is to throw it under the broiler in your oven. I've been putting down some aluminum foil and the frozen fillet and seasoning it with Cajun seasoning. It takes about 10-15 minutes to cook. As cc31 said, it goes well with any vegetable. I had a head of cabbage that I steamed up, or some frozen broccoli or spinach. |

I am the same way with almond milk. I don't drink it every day when I have it, so it always takes a week or two to finish the carton. I've never had a problem.
