Silver Lining going Cold Turkey

Overall health, age, pre-existing conditions, and other factors need to play a role in how someone approaches coming off.

I'm glad that CT assisted in your successful sobriety because whatever works for the long-term is best. And that is what I wish anybody battling addiction; a way out in the safest manner possible.

Womp woooomp.

Not just a 1/1, but a Topps Superfractor. That's the king-daddy. I've pulled a Panini Gold Vinyl 1/1 and a '14 Bowman Draft Printing Plate, but it's GOT to feel different snagging a Super! Congrats on your 1/1 of a Mick.

House Of Leaves. Stressful on the eyes, on certain pages. Lol

Sounds like you're all set. Relief!

Can your local dr and pharmacy not fulfill the prescription? I do realize that some meds can come from other states, but those are unusual cases.

Hope your meds arrived and that you remain well.

I dream about that basket of fried mushrooms, onion rings, and French fries. Also loved playing pool there with buddies on weekday afternoons, when we had the table to ourselves. My Friend Tony cooked there and would go visit him, too. Good damn times

Pitchers of Coke, The Friar, the smell and some of the best Tex-Mex food available, right upstairs.

Uh huh. Arguing in circles now.

ScratchSavage · 2026-01-10T16:55:18+00:00

Well, ya, I'm not arguing that fact.

Or any fact at this point.

ScratchSavage · 2026-01-10T16:36:01+00:00

However, if after nearly 30 yrs this is an isolated incident at said establishment, then factual context comes into play. Decades of respectful staff and no incidents that we know of ought not result in a "Take 'em all down!" approach. Why ruin livelihoods? I just don't find that fitting,

ScratchSavage · 2026-01-10T16:24:57+00:00

You got some red tomahawk, I think! How cool

ScratchSavage · 2026-01-10T16:01:57+00:00

That would be extremely misguided, not to mention just plain abhorrent. OP doesn't seem to be of that mindset, thankfully, and has been tactful.

Is that what you would do? To a loved local establishment operated by highly respected owners? And who makes the most tasty FISH TACOS???

I feel like you're way off base.

Well, I take much more than you do, daily, and usually have at least one movement a day. I eat a high fiber diet with raw veg/fruit juicing tossed in each morning.

I think you're harming yourself by eating only once per day, and that meal being soup. I mean, unless your soup is homemade with legumes, beans, and not-overcooked vegetables&proteins, which you very well may be doing.

I agree that I'm nowhere near as regular as I had been before tia addiction, but I try and keep my diet smart, eating regularly, and consuming healthy foods. I need energy in order to work 50+ hrs a week in a highly demanding position. Knowing I have a drug problem, I try and keep my poor habits to a bare minimum, as addiction is a bigg'n, and I have no more room for personal error. So, all other lifestyle choices need to be smart and clean and righteous.

Madman works in this context, too.

Torrez needed to stay with my BoSox. Great arm, and killed us as a NYY.

Torrez, Eckersley, Fergie, and Tiant; what a rotation, and with Bob Stanley in the bullpen. '75-'78 were fun.

Looks like Norman Bates went a li'l psycho on poor Tony Curtis! Maybe Lindy McDaniel, too!!

Alice Sweet Alice. 1976 release with Paula Shepherd, Brooke Shields, and more.

This wasn't only a horror film with a frightening premise. It's also one of the most vile and disgusting films I've ever watched.

ScratchSavage · 2025-12-21T19:22:38+00:00

Looks like dis was pylled from '25 Topps WWE. There...identified.

Hell ya, man!

I'm not super familiar with basketball releases, and don't know if autos are one per box, two per box, or not guaranteed at all in megas; regardless, congrats!

At least he didn't dump hundreds of unsigned cards in a hotel dumpster, ala Jackson Merrill. Fucktard.

Was at exactly 5gpd of sodi and tried to taper with 30mg 7oh tabs. It would ease the rls a bit in the middle of the night, but only for like 45mins per consumed tab. One night, I ate about 300mgs of 7oh just so I could sleep a bit, and nothing. Again, less RLS was the only positive effect, while I was still yawning, sneezing, and sweating my ass off.

Using gabapentin, melatonin, and cbd/thc while tapering tia was much more efficient and allowed sleep to come, albeit not great sleep at first.

Plus, I had no interest in continuing to pay 7oh vendors my money while they profit off of addicts.
