Tuesday, February 12, 2013Good morning crew,
The weather roller coaster continues here in the Chicago area. We keep shooting above and below freezing and I think it is starting to take a toll on me.
Yesterday it was in the low thirties, and it went down to about twenty last night, but tomorrow it is going to be 43! My sinuses are going crazy trying to keep up. And it doesn't help that half of the little kids at the school are sick.
Fortunately I haven't actually gotten sick yet this year. I credit that to washing my hands obsessively and taking this Alli-C stuff we picked up a couple months ago. It's some kind of garlic supplement.
Now, everybody knows that garlic is a super food, the problem is that not a lot of people want to run around reeking like garlic constantly. Alli-C isolates and concentrates the Allicin compound (hence the name), which is the stuff that makes garlic a natural antibiotic. So you get all of the health benefits of eating raw garlic without smelling like a sous chef in an Italian restaurant.
Anyway, I didn't mean for this to turn into a sales pitch, but I have been oddly healthy while so many other people are getting sick, so I thought I'd mention it.
Now, I get a ten percent employee discount, but it is a little expensive. I guess it depends on how much you value your health. If you'd like to read more about it I have included a link here...

***[In preamble let me say that whoever wrote this joke doesn't know much about alcohol. First; not even premium imported beer costs $10 a 6-pack, and second; drinking 18 beers a day for 15 years would probably kill a person. That being said, I have been in situations very similar to this, so I still find this joke funny.]
1st Date Conversation
Lady: Do you drink?
Man: Yes.
Lady: How much a day?
Man: 3 six packs.
Lady: How much does a six pack cost?
Man: About $10.00.
Lady: And how long have you been drinking?
Man: 15 years.
Lady: So one six pack cost $10.00 and you have 3 six packs a day which puts your spending each month at $900. In one year, it would be $10,800 correct?
Man: I guess.
Lady: If in 1 year you spend $10,800 not accounting for inflation, the past 15 years puts your spending at $162,000 correct?
Man: I suppose so.
Lady: Do you know that if you didn't drink, that money could have been put in a step-up interest savings account and after accounting for compound interest for the past 15 years, you could have now bought a new Ferrari?
Man: You don't say. So, do YOU drink?
Lady: No.
Man: Where's your Ferrari?

06' Suzuki GSXR 1000, $9,000
This bike is perfect! It has only 1,000 miles and has had its 500 mile dealer service.
It's been adult ridden, all wheels have always been on the ground. I use it as a cruiser/commuter. I'm selling it because it was purchased without proper consent of a loving wife. Apparently "Do whatever you want." doesn't mean what I thought. Call Steve.
