Eventually, a lunch menu will be as long as “War and Peace.” You want low carb, you know exactly what to eat and what not to. Eat a salad with a vinegar and oil dressing and a steak.

Us, too. I know I weigh too much; but I’m tired of being
lectured about “carbs” and “exercising” and blah . . blah .

We flew in to NYC several years ago. It was depressing. We
live in the sticks & it was culture shock. Buildings piled
on top of each other, seafood restaurants pushing shellfish
& me getting headaches from shellfish & totally put off by
sushi, walking ourselves almost to death everywhere we went.
When we landed back home; we vowed NO MORE. I’m pretty sure
somebody also stole my new warm stylish hat. Lots of
turbulence on the flight home. Son chose that time to
break it to us that he was “gay”. I don’t fit in to that
stuff. :o( I also do not march in “pride” parades.

Remember Baywatch?

Now on LA County public beaches it’s a $1000 fine to throw a football or Frisbee.

“Dangerous”.

Whoops! That’s $100, not $1,000.

I found a bunch of articles that say that it is indeed $1000. I was about to ask you what the justification for the law might be (besides raising revenue).

I’m sorry, YOU ARE CORRECT, the fine on LA County beaches for throwing a frisbee or football is indeed $1,000, and not $100.

Just amazing.

According to this the $1000 fine was a misunderstanding by the media, throwing balls on the beaches had actually been prohibited since 1970, and the change in the law was actually to permit throwing balls in the off season.

I like the ones with the calorie counts, this way I know what to buy to get most calories for my buck.

This would require endless “studies”, ongoing Council meetings, Union Pay and before the first sign is produced, these jackasses are retired collecting FAT pensions and benefits. The NY way!

Some warnings are needed, like your food is cooked on the same grill as sea food, we use soy products, this product contains milk....for those of us not allowed or allergic to those products. And if the food used was USA GROWN.

Ditto applies to drugs.
