LarryBlanken I actually researched this situation over 30 years ago. I realized that the baby food was nothing special except in the way that it was processed. I also realized that people got along fine without it for thousands of years. I began making my own baby food by...

Kamote? do you eat this? It is also known as Sweet potato?

Jacobus1919 @Jacobus1919 (1683) • Philippines 9 Dec 10

Well, I have heard and read about Kamote or also known as Sweet potato. They say it is very nutritious and is good for dieting. Anyone here eat this? But, the only down side of this is you do release flatus alot.

LarryBlanken I personally think that sweet potatoes are great. They are very tasty and quite a healthy food. In addition to simple starches, they are rich in complex carbohydrates. They are also good sources of vitamin C and vitamin B6. Most scientific studies have raned...

LarryBlanken you have a very good point there. Of course, automobile registration was mainly created as a form of income generation for cities and states. However, it has become a useful tool for law enforcement track down criminals who use be a calls in the commission of...

LarryBlanken I've found that walking isn't such a good idea sometimes. I prefer to stay at home or in the company of many good friends.

LarryBlanken It is definitely safer to drunk bicycle than drunk drive. Not to say that it is safe, but the possible damage is greatly diminished. I have personal experience that tells me to stay away from any kind of vehicle when intoxicated. If you drink to excess, the...

LarryBlanken Nope. I've never accidentally farted in public. Never. I always fart on purpose. I'm a very sharing person. I like to eat beans at Christmas time and ride up and down the escalator in the mall. I'm especially fond of the ones that growl...like an angry...

LarryBlanken I will be really glad when the Internet replaces and eliminates the need for newspapers and paper mail. Maybe, if paper was harder to get, fewer people would keep rats. Nah........They'd probably just keep them in their pockets or under their hats. When I was...

LarryBlanken I have four daughters, but only one cried much. When I say 'much' I mean constantly. The doctor said she was OK and she was just temperamental. I read a lot of books and most said that attention would probably only make it worse. The more we ignored her, the...

Womens Beach Volleyball

LarryBlanken @LarryBlanken (13) • United States 30 Dec 09

I really enjoy beach volleyball. Well, women's beach volleyball. They don't seem to have enough of it on TV. I think they should do away with some of the basketball and golf and have more women's beach volleyball. I don't know any...

LarryBlanken I really like salt on my food. However, I developed high blood pressure a few years ago and my doctor told me I should give up salt. He said it could give me a heart attack or stroke and it could kill me. The first thing I thought about was potato chips. How...

LarryBlanken I understand feeling like a dork in high school. I was on the chess team. Come to think of it, I really was a dork. Funny though, it didn't follow me into adult life. I realize now, I didn't have a lot of high school friends because of THEIR immaturity. Most...

LarryBlanken I agree that nude working would save on clothing costs. I work at home and do it mainly in the nude. I enjoy it, actually. I do buy less laundry detergent than most people I know and save a lot of time deciding what to wear. It takes me forever to wear out a...
