I didn't even watch it.

And as my grandfather might have said, if you take that tone with a cow you probably won't be on that stool for much longer.

You have this in your face way of communicating that must have made you popular in school. I'm going to say it and that's all I will say it...

I will die as I see fit. It still ain't too popular with me to die, but having almost left twice, I'm just not going to push it, because there's nothing to push at that point.

Your concern for others' health has turned into some little act of terrorism in the process. When any of us die nobody goes there with us. You have nothing to fear from our deaths. You may feel sorrow but ultimately you have no effect on my death or anyone elses.

Do I want to live as long as I can? You BET! But nobody handed me a boarding pass to the the train to heaven and said be here at this time.

So stop screaming. Your comment about mucus was uncivil and uncalled for. Grossing people out is not good PR. You crossed the line and damaged your message.

I just cut all margarine from my home cooking, of which I already used less and less of each month and I replaced it with butter. I didn't put a ton of it on the potato I just microwaved either.

This thread seems to have the A&S Disease, where advocacy becomes bashing at some point, and I don't think you've ever seen me on A&S. You can't spread information with us vs them. It wears thin.

That is all I will add right now. Take some time to learn advocacy, not warfare.

What Sixty-Fiver has stated has also been stated by several professional cyclists and it's true. Chocolate milk is an excellent way to replenish vital nutrients and minerals following a hard ride as well as needed energy from it's calories.

Where all the garbage about what does the cow think about being killed to be food came from has no bearing of the topic of the thread. Diversion is a lazy argument and a poor rebuttal. It has no more use than what does the elk think about the wolves. Elk herds are not meant to get really large...etc, they overpower and ruin the balance of the ecosystem and that's the purpose of predators, to promote balance. Feral cows? Considering that they were imported and that not many species of cattle actually existed in North America prior to the English settlement, consider that we are here to manage the cattle. All animals DIE.
