Riddle Sideways: standing and stretching to look up helped the lower back pain a lot

Riddle Sideways: not quite an aHa
Riddle Sideways: but educational
Riddle Sideways: evil chair is the problem
Bleu Oleander: :)

Riddle Sideways: enough! how are you today
Bleu Oleander: pretty good!
Riddle Sideways: no story there
Bleu Oleander: had a salon on edible insects last night
Riddle Sideways: oh
Bleu Oleander: have u ever eaten bugs?
Riddle Sideways: think so, long ago
Bleu Oleander: lots of interesting data and issues around the topic
Bleu Oleander: possibly part of the solution for feeding the world's hungry
Bleu Oleander: had brownies made with cricket flour :)
Riddle Sideways: ah, not live insects last night
Bleu Oleander: no, not live
Bleu Oleander: that's a different thing all together!
Riddle Sideways: :)
Bleu Oleander: apparently bugs are high in protein, iron and calcium
Bleu Oleander: serving per serving meat to bugs, bugs are more nutritious
Riddle Sideways: have heard that
Riddle Sideways: and have eaten a number of products made from insects
Bleu Oleander: takes much less water to grow them and they give off way less gases to the atmosphere
Riddle Sideways: they grow in the desert too
Bleu Oleander: of course there is the ick factor
Riddle Sideways: yep
Bleu Oleander: they actually advise not to go foraging for bugs, as they may contain pesticides and/or diseases
Bleu Oleander: best to get them from bug farms
Riddle Sideways: hmmmm
Riddle Sideways: organic bug farms
Bleu Oleander: Americans are probably a ways away from adding bugs to their diets :)
Bleu Oleander: yes, organic bug farms :)
Riddle Sideways: how about worms?
Bleu Oleander: thursday we have a salon on medical marijuana and friday on bats ... so an interesting week
Bleu Oleander: yes worms too
Bleu Oleander: mealworms?
Bleu Oleander: grubs
Riddle Sideways: compost pile ot back has a gzillion worms
Bleu Oleander: all kinds of tasty things
Riddle Sideways: what a great life
Bleu Oleander: it is!
Riddle Sideways: with a salon every day
Bleu Oleander: salons are great
Riddle Sideways: have heard many of these topics on NPR shows
Bleu Oleander: fun conversations, interesting ideas, really broadens the mind
Riddle Sideways: did not have to get dressed and go someplace
Bleu Oleander: yes, we are like NPR but more intimate
Riddle Sideways: but, could not interact
Bleu Oleander: right
Bleu Oleander: its all in the interaction!
Riddle Sideways: need to get out more
Bleu Oleander: unless of course you have social phobias, then it would be hard :)
Riddle Sideways: very few phobias
Bleu Oleander: I often feel that I would like to just stay home, but always feel glad I decided to go
Riddle Sideways: is the fear of Donald Trump a phobia
Bleu Oleander: trump phobia ... rampant these days!
               --BELL--
Riddle Sideways: great piece on The Daily Show may 12
Riddle Sideways: the major of London and the mayor of Paris
Bleu Oleander: will look up later :)
     whole show is too much: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YA--7zPxrLM is just the clip
Riddle Sideways: speaking about Trump
Bleu Oleander: ah funny I bet
Riddle Sideways: a "rofl" session

Riddle Sideways: weekend edition (again staying home and listen to radio)
Riddle Sideways: had a piece on urban foraging
Bleu Oleander: what is that? like dumpster diving?
Riddle Sideways: a guy takes groups around L.A. (think it was) to forage plants
Bleu Oleander: ah plants
Riddle Sideways: yeah, they said it sounded like dumpsters
Riddle Sideways: the group walked the city, gathered plants and prepared/solar cooked them in a park
Bleu Oleander: interesting
Riddle Sideways: yes
Riddle Sideways: yesterday, while watching the tree prunings
Riddle Sideways: pulled several handfulls of garlic weeds
Riddle Sideways: and had in dinner
Bleu Oleander: good?
Riddle Sideways: the shift in attitude toward dinner
Riddle Sideways: like the insects
Bleu Oleander: yes
Bleu Oleander: actually many of our perceived problems can be helped with a shift in attitude!
Riddle Sideways: the only thing you have the power to change
Bleu Oleander: yes :)
Riddle Sideways: need to remember to adjust attitude often
Bleu Oleander: although maybe not the only thing :)
Riddle Sideways: often that adjustment is in the form of laughter
Bleu Oleander: it is amazing what a small change in attitude can do
Bleu Oleander: yes, laughter is great
Bleu Oleander: try to get as much in as I can
Riddle Sideways: surprisingly, many people don't like to be laughed at
Bleu Oleander: laughed with is better
Riddle Sideways: yes, tried to do that,
Riddle Sideways: but they aren't laughing
               --BELL--
Bleu Oleander: :)
Riddle Sideways: some of the situations humans get into are so funny
Bleu Oleander: indeed
Riddle Sideways: but, hard for them to see themselves
Riddle Sideways: in a removed light
Bleu Oleander: pov is critical
Riddle Sideways: can't think of the phrase that would work
Riddle Sideways: road rage is for being mad at
Riddle Sideways: Hi Adams
Bleu Oleander: morning Adams
Adams Dubrovna: Hello Riddle and Bleu :)
Adams Dubrovna: Sorry I am late--just got back from a long walk

Riddle Sideways: need a phrase about ummm, drive-by laughing
Adams Dubrovna: yes, still cool
Bleu Oleander: drive-by laughing :)
Adams Dubrovna: nice thought
Adams Dubrovna: I hope your back is a little better Riddle
Riddle Sideways: when there is a stranger e.g. in Costco doing something that just makes you laugh
Riddle Sideways: a little, thanks
Riddle Sideways: standing helps
Riddle Sideways: friend said it was snowing in Mich
Riddle Sideways: yesterday or day before
Adams Dubrovna: ouch
Adams Dubrovna: it is unseasonably cool
Riddle Sideways: looks over a calendar ... says it is May
Riddle Sideways: that would define unseasonable
Adams Dubrovna: weather doing what scientists predicted a decade ago--i.e. getting wacky
Riddle Sideways: same friend sings "Laugh kills Lonesome" btw
Riddle Sideways: those darn scientists
Adams Dubrovna: :)
Bleu Oleander: :)
Riddle Sideways: missing the good ole days when the wacky guy at the gas station
Riddle Sideways: would say the wackiest thing while pumping
Bleu Oleander: have to pump and talk to yourself these days
Riddle Sideways: NJ stills has people pump your gas for you
Adams Dubrovna: not in NJ
Adams Dubrovna: yes
Bleu Oleander: yes, was just going to say that!
Adams Dubrovna: :)
Adams Dubrovna: and the gas is cheaper than in most states
Riddle Sideways: But don't cell phone talk while pumping
Bleu Oleander: is NJ unique with that or other states too?
Adams Dubrovna: I think there is at least one other state
Adams Dubrovna: none of the states I visit :)
Adams Dubrovna: Oregon?
Bleu Oleander: I can't remember the last time someone pumped gas for me!
Bleu Oleander: or checked the pil lol
