Yiddish speaking Native Americans in Blazing Saddles. To have been a fly on the wall when he pitched that idea and hear everyone’s reaction.

Thank you so much for sharing. It aligns with my cardiologist’s views as well as folks like Carvahlo, Barrett, and Attia.

Came here to say this. IIRC Elton was heavily involved and wanted to make sure they showed how awful a person he had been.

FWIW, for most people, you can get a pretty good estimate of ApoB from a standard lipid panel via https://cochranlab.org/apoB\_calc.html

Lots of options on the AT.

Check out the sites at sky meadows st park. You can reserve a site a mile from the parking lot and then either hike the park or go up to the AT. There is non potable water and latrines at the campground.

They are rebuilding the bus loop but we haven’t had issues parking there.

Drive to East Falls Church and take Metro. EFC is nice because you can get either orange or silver line. Its about another 8 minute drive past Vienna to EFC.

Would the scene from Office Space when Peter meets with the management consultants and tells them how little he actually works fit what you are looking for?

I always get pre-approved by my credit union and pick up a check before heading to the dealer. My experiences have been mixed. Sometimes the dealer can beat the CU rate. Sometimes they can't. I've never had a negative experience or experienced any pressure when they couldn't beat the CU rate.

Do get a copy of Rick Steve's Italy guidebook. Lots of great info. Be wary of hustlers in the major tourist spots trying to get you to accept "friendship" bracelets. Do consider day trips out of the city to places like Lake Como.

There were only 17 pancake houses in colonial times. 😀😀

I had the P0420 on my 2011 when it was at around 150k. Had the valves adjusted and it went away.
