Deliverance

I would try to eat foods that have little to no glycemic load--in that situation, probably protein and non-starchy veggies with as little condiments with sugar as possible. As for drinks, I'd probably plan on them not providing anything suitable for me and bring my own. If they happen to have...

In season I like Romas for salsa and guacamole, and heirlooms for sandwiches/salads. Off season I don't like to buy tomatoes but in a pinch I'll buy cherry tomatoes because they're the closest to real tomatoes.

3 BR/1 BA, about 800 sq ft before my Dad converted our 1 car garage into a TV room/laundry room. With that, about 1000 sq ft. My brother and I shared a room that was about 90 sq ft. I'm still not quite sure how we did it but it seemed perfectly fine at the time. :confused3 Big back yard, my...

2004. I was older (wife & kids). The hot new ride was Mission: Space, believe it or not. Epcot was our first park, and I remember the CM trying to hold back the RD crowd screaming, "NO RUNNING! EVERYBODY'S GOING TO HAVE A CHANCE TO RIDE MISSION: SPACE!" :D We pooh-poohed the idea of taking an...

Not sure what the parole/good time rules are in CA for that type of conviction, but it's possible he doesn't serve the entire 16. My WAG is NY retries him.

I loved the early Tom Clancy/Jack Ryan books: Hunt for Red October, Patriot Games, Cardinal of the Kremlin, etc.

A fried bologna sandwich with mustard is one of life's simple pleasures. Unfortunately, I can't get DW to go along. But there's a local minor league baseball team that has them and I always get one when we go.

At our previous house we had a TV on the wall of our bedroom. It telescoped out and you could push it back in when you needed to. It was great if you were actually lying in bed and watching TV vs having the TV at the foot of your bed on top of a piece of furniture, where the angle's kind of low.

Scottie looks and acts like your local insurance agent who's out for his weekly outing with his group--then he kills it. It's fun watching him win.

Is Canada (from the US) "abroad"? If so, 15. If not, 25, when I was in the Navy.

For a full day in the parks we eat 2 QS and have a snack. TS prices are ridiculous, especially for what you get. Over the years we gradually marked our old TS favorites off our list, one by one, until there were none left we'd spend that (enormous) amount of money on.

Report back and let us know what it's like! I'd love to do it, but DW wants to have a home base. We're going to Europe September-December this year and I hope it'll whet her appetite for nomad life.

I've been on a diet since March and lost 16 lbs so far, so pretty much anything. :D

DW and I went to F&W in October, 2010 on an empty-nester trip. Disney was still recovering from the recession and crowds were very low. Weather was perfect and we had a great time. There was 1 day at MK when we showed up at 11 and the park closed at 7 and we still did everything we wanted to...

Assuming the premise of the question is correct (in a lot of the country, it's not), it's probably because the "McMansions" sell well and make the builders profit. Otherwise they'd sit empty and builders would build something different.

Kalamatas are my favorite. I could eat them in just about anything.

RIP Dickie Betts :(

Not my first choice, but DW really likes him. I took her to a Michael Buble/Straight No Chaser concert for Valentine's Day about 15 years ago. It was a very good concert. I like that he does a lot of the old standards. That's timeless music and I'm glad that someone popular is keeping it going...
