impossible to know since i was improving on many fronts. frankly, i think the daily distilled Myrrh dose really did the trick, along with very low sugar intake. but maybe it was the Neem bark? or the cod liver oil? the water pik? the coconut oil. the 5x a day flossing?

from wikipedia:

Peer-reviewed dental literature thoroughly establishes that bleeding on probing is a poor positive predictor of periodontal disease, but conversely lack of bleeding is a very strong negative predictor. The clinical interpretation of this research is that while BOP presence may not indicate periodontal disease, continued absence of BOP is a strong predictor (approximately 98%) of continued periodontal health.[8]

[quote=flu]You guys want to talk about inflation,

A new 2014 911s was selling for $95k
A 2017 911s STARTS at $104k and comparably equip, is closer to $115k

A new starter BMW 330 with a 4 cylinder engine can put you back around $50k.
Now that’s insane.[/quote]

true. I was waiting for my wife’s mini to be serviced and walked arou n d,auto Pkwy in escondido. the prices on the audi lot frightened me.

I like to laugh at a lot of things. Even things that may not warrant laughter.

And after reading your comment I was tempted to google for a photograph of her, but I’m relieved to say that I did not.

And I will not.[/quote]

Well. I think it would be ok to look. she’s not quite as pretty as my wife, but close.

[quote=svelte]Let’s see, $250K would be 20% down on what, a $1.25M house?

Guess I’m saying that you could have probably put 20% down a long time ago on a lesser home.

But that’s neither here nor there – what would I do in your shoes right now?

I’d probably continue stashing cash. I can’t help but feel we are getting close to a peak. Maybe in the next 12 months. Probably right after the election, actually, no matter who wins.

I talked one of my kids into buying a home last year knowing prices were gonna rise…was the right decision and they are glad they did.

I talked the other kid out of buying recently in SF because my instinct tells me we are nearing a peak – told’em to wait and buy on the next dip.

At this point in time, that’s what I think you should do too. Ya just have to be brave enough to buy in a bear market. Its hard to do when you see prices crashing everywhere, but it’s much smarter than buying after a long run-up. Scaredy even found the courage to buy during the very dark days of real estate and he is glad he did.

Anyway, I understand your frustration. Hindsight is 20/20. All you can really do now is figure out the way forward. Good luck. Sounds like you’ve got a great head on your shoulders. I have faith you’ll figure it out.[/quote]

I did not really have any courage. I just did what my wife told me. however, I did what my wife had previously told me, like ulysses binding himself and his men to the mast. even she wanted to back out during the crash.

thesec illusions are destroying us. be true to your self. also know thy self. and try to get outside yourself. but don’t deny the self.

as kids move out, the square footage per person in this house is getting a little ridiculous.

anyone see ANOMALISA? that is the darkest movie ever.

I think any bed price is ok. I love being in bed.

it’s my favorite place. I love sleeping, lying around, reading, drinking scotch, chatting. also good f or sex.

I love beds!!!

I think the Constitution provides that when the president is exceedingly great he can also simultaneously be the VP. I predict trump will run as both because he is the best.

[quote=flu][quote=AN][quote=FlyerInHi][quote=AN][quote=FlyerInHi]Huh? I was answering the notion that Asians are natural Republicans. I provided data to show that in 2008, they were not, except for Vietnamese Americans. Maybe Asians are Republicans when they live in non predominantly Asian areas, but there is no data to prove that.

On the democratic side, Asians are being won over by Sanders according to several reports by John Yang of PBS which I watch everyday.
http://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/can-bernie-sanders-pull-off-upset-win-over-hillary-clinton-in-california/%5B/quote%5DYou tried to draw a line between social economic vs party affiliation. That line doesn’t really exist. You’re also assuming all Asians are the same, so it must be their social-economic status that’s determining their party affiliation and also explain why certain group are anti-communism vs another. To phrase it another way… “You guys all look the same”.
[/quote]

We are talking demographics here. People are lumped into groups for that purpose.

Read the wapo article. “Natural Republicans” implies higher social economic status. But that’s not happening with Asian Americans. As they have become more educated and richer, they have shifted to democrats. The article addresses that point.

Btw, another group that should be natural republicans are Jews. But they are not because of education and academia.[/quote]Could it possibly be that Republican have been taken over by bible thumpers and most Asians are not Christians? Could it be the reason why Vietnamese-American are more anti-communism is because those who are here feel that they lost their country to communism while other Asians did not? Point is, you can’t paint all Asian with the same brush. There are a lot of nuances that you seem to not understand. We all are not the same.[/quote]

The Bible thumpers aren’t the worst imho, because usually they are contained in their own geographical location and if the GOP puts an ultra conservative Bible thumping candidate, that would never work, and they know that. Trump is this slippery slope in that while he isn’t a Bible thumper, he’s just flat out nuts and mentally unstable. I mean, he’s a lot like Donald Sterling in his outbursts. it would be funny if it weren’t for the fact that he’d have the finger on the nuclear button.[/quote]

no actual button. don’t worry.

[quote=temeculaguy][quote=zk][quote=temeculaguy] I’ll vote for anyone but Hillary.[/quote]

Now, temeculaguy, you’ve always seemed like a pretty enlightened, reasonable guy. I’m really curious why you hate Hillary so much. And I want you to be honest with yourself and picture her as a man and see if you hate her so much. If she held the same policy positions she does now, and had basically the same personality she does now, but was a man, would you hate her so much? Would you vow to vote for anybody but her, even if that anybody was an immature, narcissistic, ignorant lunatic who poses a real and serious threat to the safety and prosperity of this country?

Do you really think that he would be a better president than her, or are you letting some vague, primordial hatred for her get in the way of a reasonable and responsible vote?[/quote]

In all honesty I didn’t start out in Trump’s camp. I started out in the “anyone but Hillary or Cruz camp.” I liked Kasich, Bernie, the Doc (but he occasionally perplexed me with his wackiness, but his middle east refugee plan was so good it made me overlook things). I was okay with Christie, Fiorina and Rubio. But still all of them would get my vote in the end if they faced Hillary or Cruz. Huckabee is hard to hate but he was initially in that “anyone but” category as was rand paul who’s easy to hate. Here’s the reason why, none of it is race or gender. I do not like politicians who are overly religious and I do not like those who are on the take. Cruz and Huckabee are way too religious even though the country is not. To me, that is akin to Sharia law but from a different book. I’d prefer a president who believes in a higher power but only goes to a church to be respectful (funerals, weddings, etc.) but not actually think any religious texts with a questionable chain of evidence to be similar to a penal code or a technical manual. I don’t want them to start taking the word “god” off our currency and monuments but only because they respect history and not religion.

at the 7 minute mark the Noah part is hilarious, but I’d prefer my leader sees religion as something that’s a nice thing for those that enjoy it but not part of the government that is supposed to be by and for the people when most people don’t take it that seriously. I’m cool with a higher power, but I have issues with hardcore religious leaders regardless of which religion.

So here we are, why not Hillary? My guess if it ended up Cruz vs Bernie nobody would accuse me of bias if I supported Bernie, which in that scenario I would. But it irritates me to my very soul that I get attacked because it’s Trump vs. Hillary. That is playing the woman card in the worst sense of card playing. I didn’t hear that when I voted for Obama over her (to be honest I think it was a done deal by the time we voted in California but I still never heard it in earlier contests because he is part black). It’s only an issue because Trump is a white guy and that irritates me beyond belief.

The main reason I do not like her is the Clinton foundation and her personal wealth at what I believe is at the expense of the American people. 10 million from the Saudis and soon after they get an arms sales deal. Money from China, from wall street. I’m okay with it on a certain level but she won’t own it, she chooses to shame others for similar actions. I’m okay with prostitutes, but I’m not okay if they criticize other prostitutes. That’s Hillary. Plus she’s a rotten role model for women, one of which I raised. Thankfully the one I raised is a Bernie fan and looks at Hillary like an alien from another planet when she hears the story of Hillary’s marriage. I wish Bernie hadn’t waited until two days ago to bring up Hillary’s money and the Clinton foundation, then it would be Bernie vs. Trump and we would have some meaningful discussions. Or if it had been Kasich vs. bernie and I could feel everything would be okay. But it’s not, so it’s Trump or its one of the people I dislike the most, male or female and that’s why tomorrow, Trump gets my vote and he will not destroy the world and I’m optimistic that he will improve it. I believe Jack Nicholson said it in a Batman movie, “This town needs an enema.”

To confuse you more, I am pro abortion, pro moderate gun control (for assault weapons ban, against open carry), pro gay marriage, pro socialized medicine, anti-world police, pro wall at the border, pro better background checks for immigrants from muslim countries, anti sharia law, pro immigration from Mexico, pro deportation of violent or sexual offenders from any country, pro death penalty. I like France’s stance on the Hijab being banned in public schools, you can come here but leave that shit at the door, assimilate or get out. So you cannot put me into a box, I fit no party, I fit no stereotype. I have relatives that are of Arabic and African American decent, including a Muslim relative who I adore. I also think Black Lives Matters does more harm than good for African Americans because they usually defend the very people that prey on their own community. I especially think the anti-trump rioters and protesters are hurting their cause and are being entirely anti free speech. I was also on the other side of the border Saturday giving money to the Haitians, but I still want thorough background checks before they are let in. Charity and sympathy are good, but due diligence is also good. To quote an Arab saying “have trust in Allah, but tie up your camel.”

But here’s the thing, I know some of my stances have given many readers cause to dismiss my opinion, I’m sure a few of them have. I’ve been accused of being a populist but I have never understood why populism is bad, it means it is popular. By the people, for the people, even of you think you are better than the people. Now if we can just get Trump to pick Bernie as VP, this will work out just fine because neither are really democrats or republicans and I’m not a fan of either party so it’s a dream ticket for me. Think of it like fantasy sports, you get that team’s quarterback and that other team’s running back. But it’s called fantasy sports for a reason because it;s not real and I understand that.However my fantasy team does not have Hillary on it and it is not because she is a woman, my fantasy team would be nothing but women because it’s my fantasy (misogynistic and sexual innuendo for entertainment purposes only, and of course because I found it amusing) .[/quote]

I’m with you, in theory, about enemas, the machine, toxic money. I doubt any candidate would be apocalyptic, but… trump saying Mexican judges aren’t fair is too far for me.

that’s not enemalike, or funny, or provocative, or anti PC, or enigmatic….that’s JUST PLAIN unacceptable. hes lost me.

when trump said “But we’ll come back in November. Wouldn’t that be wild if I’m president and I come back to do a civil case?”…that kind of shit freaks even a Vermin Supreme fan out. what the fuck is this? I read it as the power of the presidency is just a tool in his world domination utility belt.

his other quasi racist comments were alarming but weren’t over the top for me: this judge comment is way, way too far out there. others agree:
