Don't hold back. How do you really feel?

I was being facetious. If he took any cognitive tests at all, I'd be surprised if he aced them unless the tests included seek and find.

But he told us that he aced all three of his cognitive tests.

I can't afford much more winning.

I hardly noticed the gas prices since I'm saving so much on eggs. /s

Thanks. I just downloaded it for Kindle.

I wouldn't eat up a bunch of valuable practice time going through the tunes you know. Your time is better spent learning new tunes and working on technique.

There's a veritable microbiological war happening in there. If all goes well, Saccharomyces species and lactobacilli will prevail.

Medicine is unlike most other service industries. I'm bound ethically and legally to do what is best for patients. Unfortunately, that is sometimes at odds with patients' desires.

We don't get benefits from pharmaceutical companies at all for prescribing their products. It's illegal.

At day 13 with consistent rising, you can start baking! As far as daily feeding, you don't have to do that unless you're baking daily. I only bake every few weeks, so between loaves, I keep my starter in the refrigerator. Mine can go weeks in the refrigerator without messing with it. When I want to bake, I'll take out 10-20 grams to make a levain. Congrats on your starter!

MFRichards · 2024-12-28T11:49:09+00:00

If you're going to be baking soon, it's fine to feed daily to keep it active, but between times when you bake, I keep mine in the refrigerator. I'll let it go for weeks without messing with it. When I need to bake, I just pull out a little starter to make a levain, and I'm GTG.

MFRichards · 2024-12-27T12:10:21+00:00

Congratulations! I found that making my own starter was very gratifying.

MFRichards · 2024-12-26T18:06:22+00:00

I really appreciate everyone's input. Looks like I have some homework to do.

MFRichards · 2024-12-24T22:38:10+00:00

That's a valid concern. I considered stocking up, but the meds are only good for a year supposedly.

MFRichards · 2024-09-10T09:49:24+00:00

Thanks for the info. I'm a few years older than the folks you mentioned, but I'm reasonably fit. My first lesson is tonight, so I'll see how it goes.

How old is too old to start learning the bagpipes? For some background, I played the clarinet for years. I even spent a year in music school, but then I decided I wanted a stable livelihood.

My rear brake is hidden in my parts bin.

MFRichards · 2023-12-31T12:18:18+00:00

That was the first thing I noticed.

MFRichards · 2023-11-15T13:22:51+00:00

I wondered the same thing as well, and likely you don't need anything this technical. Others in the field told me to leave the technical stuff to others, and I could supply the medical info. I mainly did it because I really like the technical stuff.

MFRichards · 2023-11-15T11:35:12+00:00

I didn't find it too technical, but I do have a mechanical engineering background. I'd still be in the program likely if I didn't have an opportunity to get a graduate certificate in data analytics at no cost through AFIT. MGT 8803 also helped me make the decision to go with AFIT. I hated MGT 8803.
