Eastern Oregon is serious farming populated with serious intelligent farming people.

Montana ismpopulated by the bad guys you see in Western Fiction...I'm told Montanans were ejected from Texas for incompetence and mental insuffiency... Worser, the Big Sky is big tourist gone to Casinoville.

Big difference there.

I have an anthropology puzzle. I getting a difficult hassle from Californians mainly the SF crowd and SF's Sex Police for not sucking dicks on the sidewalk. 'Like' if I needed serious ER, I expect that i would have to 'scuk dicks' befopre treatment. forget buying $1000 tires.

This is there place on earth I was told by a reliable source and you are not welcome caws you're not suckoing dicks. I do scientific field research now on the San Andreas Fault, for Californians benefit and am a paying tourist.

Yes misjudging the weater is a classic one. Only your own pride is

'ding dong... Look who is at the door will you. OK were is my gun?'
Geezzz what a f*cked up society. Glad that almost no one has a gun here.
Would not know what to do with it.

Lots of people have guns in Switzerland. In fact, with mandatory
military service, a lot of people have SIG 550s that could reduce you
to confetti -- and Swiss society is hardly considered f***** up.
Switzerland has a very low rate of gun related violence. *I'm not for

There is a very low rate of gun related violence in Eastern Oregon. In
North Dakota there is practically no gun related violence, yet better
than 50% gun ownership. Gun violence is a really complex problem made
difficult by our history and diverse population.

Simple question. Why would anyone need a gun for?

Hunting, predator/vector control, self protection. I might take a 9mm
if I were riding through parts of Alaska, although guns have not
improved the outcome in some bear attacks (fiddling with gun instead
of running or taking other defensive action). Apart from need,
shooting is fun. I don't own a gun, but I did a fair amount of
shooting thirty years ago with a friend who had a boat load of guns.
He collected guns like some of us collect bikes. Biathalon would have
been fun, but now I'm too slow on my cross-country equipment.

NO SUGAR !

as a last resort maybe..

look at the ingeedients in power fluids. Find basic glycogens, basic sugars that are NOT table sugar.

Closest yawl can get to this, and my search maybe outdated, is something like Karo, sweetner derived from corn.

The closer the 'sugar' (not table sugar) comes to a simple glycogen molecular construction, the easier it is for your body chemistry, once called a Krebs Cycle named *after its discoverer Maynard G. Krebs, to convert it into positive muscle chemistry food...like the muscle cells need dinner.

It doesn't make any difference when one's body is closing down,
although glucose is preferable, any sugar will do. Boiled sweets are
generally the correct thing, either glucose or invert sugar. Most
confectionary is suitable to keep power levels up although fading may
also be due to a need for magnesium or potassium, a carton of fruit
juice is a wise carry. If it comes down to it, eat the roadside
herbs.
A favoured carry for me was a Topic, a hazlenut confectionary bar.
Not only would it be boosting sugar and magnesium but also fatty acids
which facilitates the liver and brain without requiring conversion.
if one is experiencing pain alonggside power depletion then the first
line of action is salted water. If one does not pick up within ten
minutes, try the confectionary then lastly the fruit juice.

WHAT do you use the Road Morph for ?

Simple question. Why would anyone need a gun for?

Lou


Well, after the first few, 'just because'.

A target pistol is not a concealable small weapon is not a
rifle, etc.

your girlfriend after the bike ride.
