Just thought that this was funny and I had to share

LONDON (Reuters) - It was every museum-goer’s nightmare — a stumble, a crash and thousands of pounds worth of historic fragments lying on the floor.

What Not to Crochet

Yesterday was horrible. I just hurt so badly that I couldnt function. Mostly my neck, down my arms and my wrists. Today is much better. Just have a little pain in my wrists/hands and in my hips. So today I have to catch up on everything I neglected yesterday. I want to do some more research on natural remedies, so I, hopefully, will not have to start some meds that will get me addicted and go nuts. One thing I want to find out more about is Valerian. As far as I have read it is a sleep aid. Which is pretty much what I find as priority #1 at the moment. I am certain that is I can just get some ‘good’ sleep it will help a lot with the pain.
Anyone out there ever used Valerian? I would like to hear both pro’s and con’s about Valerian.

Questions and Answers about Valerian

Just thought I should share this story. It is totally rediculous, but I guess thats what you can expect when you start discussing with fanatic fundamentalists.

Death Threats in Denmark

I posted a reply to some of the posts at the site. The post #’s referred to in my post is in reference to posts at this board: GagWatch - Death Threats in Denmark

My reply:
#74 You said: We know that family relationship …Believing in God…believeing in any thing that is realted to civilized world is not a part of ur culture…

What a load of BS. And you wonder why we call you ignorant and uncivilized? Family is important to most people in the west and religion is important to many people in the west. Just because we are not fanatics such as you, doesn’t mean we dont believe and rely on family and our religion(s).

Someone else mentioned (do not recall what post #) how money is all that concerns us ‘westeners’. That is totally BS too.
I am Danish, I do not live in Denmark though. I am a mom and a wife. My husband and I have chosen for me to stay home and take care of our kid. Regardless of how little money he makes to support us. Our priorities are our family, the wellfare of our kid, education, and safety from fanatics.

As for ignorance… In Denmark it is mandatory for kids to learn at least 3 languages in grade school. Including Danish. Many kids choose to learn more than those 3 mandatory languages. When I went to school many years ago, I was taught the 3 mandatory languages, plus 3 other languages that I had to learn to read, and 1 voluntary language. So dont pull the ignorance card on any Dane. Besides, ignorance has nothing to do with how many languages you speak. Ignorance is lacking knowledge or comprehension of the thing specified. In this case you are ignorant of how westeners live or what the priorities of westeners are.

When was the last time you came to a western country, stayed for an extended period of time to learn our culture and ways of life? If you say never, then dont preach about how we dont believe in a religion or have family as a priority. I do not claim to know much about your ways of life in your country, but I did grow up in a peaceful Denmark. It was safe to walk in the streets after dark. Then Denmark allowed in a lot of immigrants from the middle-east and suddenly you couldnt walk in the streets without being grabbed, yelled at, spit at, or in the worst case raped or in other ways violated. Sure there are Danish criminals too, but take a look at some of the #’s that have been posted at this board. Foreigners take up the majority of the prison population.

Seriously, instead of sending foreigners to prison in Denmark for commiting a crime on Danish soil or against the people, they should just be sent back to where they came from. I dont care if they came to Denmark (or any other country) to seek political asylum. If they cant live by the laws, send them back and let their own country deal with the criminal scum.

As I said before I do not live in Denmark, and as an immigrant in my new country I see it as my duty to adapt to this new country. I am not saying I changed my religion etc. but I do have to follow the laws and social rules of this new country. And I believe that anyone who moves to a new country should do the same. If you move to Denmark, live by their rules and social laws. If a news paper writes an article about a subject that offends you, then dont buy the news paper. Sure you are allowed to express your dismay, but no need for threatening people. What you do behind your own closed door is up to you (as long as it is not breaking the laws).

Denmark, as most civilized countries, has freedom of speech. This doesnt mean you can go say to someone that you are going to kill them. That is not freedom of speech, that IS an act of violence, even if you do not act upon it.

Again in reply to a post I do not recal the # of: Contrary to ‘your’ beliefs, the Danish legal system do not torture or execute criminals. Although in certain circumstances it probably wouldnt be a bad idea.

And last… Reply to post #35. Denmark is a monarchy. We do not have a president. Now that is ignorance. If you dont have a clue who and what you are talking about then dont say anything at all.

Thanks for reading and I am ready for the death threats now

Yesterday wasnt so good. I had so much pain in my neck and down my arms. But Rudy was a sweetheart and gave me a nice massage and it helped a little bit. My skin is extremely sensitive at the moment though so I cant handle too much rubbing. But it did help loosen of the muscles.

Today I woke up and didnt really have much pain. A little down my left arm and in my left wrist. And also a little pain in my right hip and leg. But the pain is really not bad at all. Either I am starting on a run of feeling better or I am getting used to the pain.

I still havent started on any medications as I still havent made up my mind. I am pretty sure that I will not start on the anti-depressants (Effexor) that the neuro prescribed. And I am pretty sure that I will try with herbs and vitamins before I start on some nasty anti-depressants, sleep aids, and pain killers. The big question is just exactly what herbs and vitamins to take and what dosage to use. But I am sure with a little guidance and a lot of research I will find something.

I saw this guy on the Leno show the other night and was thinking that he was a guy I would like to vote for if I could vote or lived in Texas. He is on to something good. Sure he has his faults, but he at least is telling the truth as it is. And I can only agree with most of what he believes in. He wants prayer back in the schools, he is for gay marriage, he runs a dog pound to find home for unwanted dogs. Whats not to like?

If you have a few minutes to spare I suggest you read this article : Kinky’s Run for Governor of Texas

When ever I find more news about Kinky I will of course share it here. This is one political campaign I dont mind following

I made this recipe a couple of weeks ago. Turned our pretty good. I changed a few things from the original, but I will post the original here and then you can change what ever you like

Ingredients:

Cut the potatoes into 3/4 inch (2 cm) dice and cook in salted boiling water for 5 minutes, or until just tender. Drain well.

Cut the chicken into 3/4 inch (2 cm) pieces. Heat half the oil in a large skillet. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring, for about 5 minutes, or until the onion has softened. Add the chicken, salt and pepper and cook, stirring, for a further 5 minutes, or until the onion and chicken have browned.

Add the drained potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes, or until the potatoes have browned. Stir in the parsley.

Meanwhile, in a separate skillet, heat the remaining oil. Break the eggs individually into the hot oil and cook until set.

Serve the chicken hash with a cooked egg on top.

This recipe is ranked ‘easy’. It serves 4. Preparation time is about 10 minutes. And cooking is about 30 minutes.

Enjoy!

And to stay healthy one must eat healthy. So I decided I should post what ever great recipes I may come by. They will be recipes I find on other websites, in books, or stuff I come up with.
