It might be the Tps reports. I'll look into it and get back to ya. Oh I gotta get back on that dehydrator as well.

23. My favorite number is 23.
24. I brew damn fine apple cider.
25. I have seen many amazing things.

omg i didn't even think about herbs!!! that would be amazing to dry and store my own herbs and not have to buy that expensive shit at the grocery store.

yeah so, my family and i are on very limited budget and eat about 75-85% of our food raw and unprocessed (because it's completely awesome). so i'm very interested in ways to get the most out of my produce. also, i might be trail mixes #1 fan and my son is dried fruits #1 fan. like, if there was a competitive eating competition for trail mix, i'd totally compete in that. i eat some sort of trail mix at least once a day. i think we'd use it a lot. unless it was difficult to work or the dried fruits/veggies/herbs tasted bad or didn't consistently come out right.

in your experience was the end result adequate quality? was the process user friendly?

i've also been thinking about investing in a dehydrator this year and making my own trail mix out the apples and berries and bananas that are "soon to go bad". has anyone ever used a dehydrator before? what do you think?

They are worth the money, IF you use them. If you only plan to make a couple batches of trail mix, then it will not be worth the money spent, If you are asking for a comparison of models I cannot help you, I am only giving personal experience, and that is using it for as you said " using up degrading fruit" but it is also a preservative means, honestly , if you can find a use for it, then they are worth the 60 or so dollars spent, but if it is just for a couple novelty dried fruit trail mix expenditures, then no, it is not worth the money.
They are excellent for storing over produced fruit/vegetables from warm months, herbs especially, you just have to have a means to make it worth the money spent, and usually with herbs, within two seasons you can justify it easily.

Drink lots of cola. Your pee will be yellow. This means you are dehydrated. Now drink lots of water. Your pee will be much clearer. This is good. You are becoming hydrated, and not killing your kidneys. Good job, chap!


My problem is with people saying that drinking soda/beer/coffee will *always* make you thirstier. This is the logic of a ten year-old. If you haven't had anything to drink for hours, and especially if you've been sweating, any beer pop or coffee is going to have a net hydrating (not a net dehydrating) effect. It's not like you mix all the sugar/salt in the beverage directly into the cells of all your tissue. A lot of that shit gets filtered out or absorbed where it's needed.

>> ^budzos:

Thirstier than not drinking anything? No. That's sea water.


That's because it's a hypertonic/hyperosmotic solution (crazy high concentration of salt[solute] compared to its solution). Any hyperosmotic solution will technically have a dehydration effect because it will bring the fluid out of your intracellular space towards extracellular space to counteract the increased solute concentration.

Putting someone's pet in a garbage bin where the animal could potentially remain and die of dehydration is the act of a psycho. Bitch deserves to be taken out of the gene pool.

Yes she deserves to be punished. But all you people who wish death and terrible things to this woman - look in the mirror - you're the fucked up psychos.


Dare I say, bullshit? Some of us can see the difference between wanting something and doing something. I would want her to be punished, but I'm not going to go out and beat her up


You want her to be punished, as do I. I doubt that you, or anyone here except QM seriously wants her to die.

And you talk about the difference between wanting something and doing something. The thing that stops us from doing is either our inability or our fear of the consequences of our actions. Both of these can also apply to a psychopath. A psychopath does not have to commit any crimes, and there are many psychopaths that are highly functional in society.

First of all, learn to recognize hyperbole. Second of all, as a pet owner I think you are completely full of shit.

Let me ask you this: if she had done the same to a baby, would you have the same lackadaisical reaction?

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Not trying to justify - just saying that rather than the illogical act of a psychopath, this may be the action of someone who sincerely and openly hates cats.>> ^Jaace:
I'm not sure I understand what you're saying here...it sounds like you're justifying her throwing the cat in a garbage bin because she's afraid of it or getting toxoplasmosis, etc.
>> ^dag:
Some people hate cats. I know, my Internet friends, this is hard to believe - but I have met them. Usually they are people with allergies, a sand box in their backyard or with a phobia of toxoplasmosis.
FTR, I love kitties, but I read somewhere that one difference between a cat and a dog - is that if a dog is shut in a room with a dead owner, he will eventually starve to death with the body of his master. A cat, on the other hand - will have a little feast.




Quit trying to apologize for that c*nt. A person who hates cats would just ignore the cat. Putting someone's pet in a garbage bin where the animal could potentially remain and die of dehydration is the act of a psycho. Bitch deserves to be taken out of the gene pool.

Jesus Westy, for once I agree with you about art. I love beer. I love brewing beer. And Six Point makes some damn good beer. They made the first rye beer I ever had and it was delicious.

But you're right. They don't talk about the actual beer in this video at all. And they act like "normal" people couldn't comprehend what they're doing. But that's Brooklyn for you: the most pretentious place on Earth. Not to mention, after all that they actually SHOW themselves using dehydrated hop pellets. Sheesh. They're so pretentious they even make ME sound pretentious.
