I just ate an entire sleeve
of Town House crackers with Port Wine cheese spread and a Sam Adams. How long do I have to spend on the stepper tonight?

1. I recommend "The Magic Mountain" by Thomas Mann.
you'll probably be able to get about halfway through it.

9. Nutrition facts
Town house crackers:
5 crackers = 80 calories
www.dietfacts.com/item.asp?itemid=4299

Wegman's Port Wine Cheese Spread
2 tbsp = 100 calories
http://216.239.39.104/search?q=cache:SwFzPYVoB5IJ:www.wegmans.com/pdf/nutrition/processed.pdf+port+wine+cheese+spread+nutrition+facts&hl=en&start=1&ie=UTF-8

Sam Adam's Boston Lager
12 oz = 160 calories
http://www.samadams.com/beer/specs/calories.html

If you are a 123 pound woman, the Stairmaster burns 8.8 calories per minute.
If you are a 170 pound man, it burns 12.2 calories per minute.

12. HEY,
why isn't there a 'reply' link on eyesroll's post?

And I'm somewhere in between a 123 (or whatever you said) woman and a 170 pound man. Well, the woman part is 100%, of course, just ask my husband. But the weight thing.....

but I guess since I forgot to measure how many teaspoons of the cheese spread I ate, I'll have to give up on my project and forget the damned stepper.

Oh no, now that I look at that paragraph above, it could look as though I am actually between a small woman and a medium man. No, that makes the bed too crowded, especially if the dogs are there, too! :)

13. I am the queen of rhetorical questions!
I answer them at work all of the time. Drives my boss nuts.

A public service announcement for DUers: Don't ask questions you don't want answered, especially if I am home sick and bored!

16. I never ask a question
if I don't want to hear the answer.

Now, I may IGNORE the answer, if it's not what I was hoping to hear...
