• I was in the middle of a post and the computer froze. This time I’ll be far more brief – and part of my point was just made by others anyway. Troublesjustabubble – thanks so much for your comments. I appreciate it. Chris – as TJB and MJMackey both s…

  in Barack Obama Test Comment by DagnyTaggart
• Joyce – I agree with most of your points, but I do think it is a bit misguided to think that folks making $250K and up (and for those of us who are single, the level is lower than 250 – 250 is for families) should not mind higher taxes. I am a big O…

• Staple: Green smoothies – my bf and I each drink 32 oz a day Indulgence: Sadly, cheese. I go off the raw course fairly frequently for sheep, goat, and buffalo milk cheeses. Things in fridge (or on counter!): I always have kale, smoothie fruit (right…

• Dogsdoingdirtythingstosweetcats – After I responded to you the other day, I thought that my post might have sounded offensive or condescending and felt badly about that. Thanks for taking it all in good form. I think what I was responding to was you…

  in What Do You Tell People About Your Diet? Comment by DagnyTaggart
• dogsuponhotcats – i’m not sure if you’re joking to some degree, but it seems extremely odd to me that your boyfriend – and no one in your family – knows you’re eating raw. i’ve been a vegetarian for 20 years, and people usually guess i’m a vegetaria…

• San Francisco has some of the best produce I have ever had in my life. I’m not a huge Whole Foods fan – I get all of my food from the Saturday farmers market at the Ferry Building (a smaller version is there on Tuesdays) and from my local market, Re…

• Chicory – just weighing in to say you are really beautiful – I don’t get sick or sad from your picture at all. You look sweet. Glad to hear your health has improved so much! I have had ulcerative colitis since I was 9, so I can relate in a very mino…

  in Chicory: how are you doing? Has raw food helped?? Comment by DagnyTaggart
• I’m so thirsty! I am at the point in the day where I am fantasizing about a big arugula salad and a ripe peach. Urgh. :) To my great discredit, I didn’t do any atoning this year. And I do have some to do – I have a couple of friendships that I have …

  in Fasting for Yom Kippur Comment by DagnyTaggart
• lol – tjb. my family is really into accomodating me now. my mom takes pride in making all of the thanksgiving side dishes with vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. and i always make a big salad and some kind of mushroom dish for people to share…

  in Helloooo Vegetarians/Vegans Comment by DagnyTaggart
• Wow – I am really shocked by how many people on this forum eat meat. I make no moral judgements (I eat cheese, and I wear leather shoes), but I just figured that most of us were at least vegetarians if not vegans. I went vegetarian at 15, so I reall…

• When I first started learning about and transitioning to raw, I read all 7(?) years of Shazzie’s blog on line and had a huge girl crush on her. However, the durian porn video turned me off in a big way – I thought it was just so stupid. I kind of ha…

• Ok – how is anyone taking this seriously?? i thought the joke is obvious?

  in A suspicous email I received Comment by DagnyTaggart
• Funny, RawVoice. Not so funny is the fact that our President is tripping over his own feet to get that blank check sent out asap! Perhaps he also fell for the Nigerian bank account scam. ;)

• iheartveggies – i feel for your friend (and for you, layladebloody). I’ve had ulcerative colitis since i was 9 and have dealt with it differently at different stages of my life. This past year, I had a really bad flare and lost too much blood every …

  in Colitis Help!! Comment by DagnyTaggart
• I personally think the MC is dangerous. I tried it for a few days – despite my intuition that it is not a healthy thing – and my body reacted badly (though I have colitis, so I am apt to react more badly than some). I don’t think it is something tha…

• That is how I felt when I voted Nader. Turns out I helped elect George Bush president. However, I understand where you are coming from – and indeed where Nader was coming from when democrats attacked him in 04 for running again and he said something…

  in What do you think of the upcoming economic crisis? Comment by DagnyTaggart
• I’m amazed that you really think there is zero difference between these men. Yes, both are beholden to certain corporate interests (though i do not think barack obama is a “puppet”), but I think there is still great difference to be found between th…

  in What do you think of the upcoming economic crisis? Comment by DagnyTaggart
• Again, we’ll have to end at disagreeing. I think it matters a great deal. When choosing between two people for a job, I will almost always go with the more intelligent and rational person. Personally, I don’t think there’s a real dispute to be had a…

  in What do you think of the upcoming economic crisis? Comment by DagnyTaggart
• I read the economist every week, which is non-U.S. So if you know that our next president is either going to be Obama or McCain, who do you pick of those two?

  in What do you think of the upcoming economic crisis? Comment by DagnyTaggart
• I think we are largely in agreement there. I am no fan of slaughtering innocent civilians. However, a country also has an obligation to not foster terrorists and to try to act against them when possible. If a country is protecting terrorists, it is …

  in What do you think of the upcoming economic crisis? Comment by DagnyTaggart
• Kevlar, is your post a response to my questions asking why Obama is scary compared to the Republican alternatives? If so, I do not think it is on point (though I did enjoy watching the video). I generally consider myself to be a Libertarian. In 2000…

  in What do you think of the upcoming economic crisis? Comment by DagnyTaggart
• Troublesjustabubble – I feel bad that I disagree so thoroughly with you on important matters, because you look like a sweet girl and I think we would probably like each other if working together or knowing each other in some other facet of life. And…

  in What do you think of the upcoming economic crisis? Comment by DagnyTaggart
• I’m sorry, but I think it is hard to discuss what we want for the country without making a highly politicized statement. People want the country out of debt – well, we were out of debt – under Clinton. Has that been forgotten? People want the troops…

• meditating – i cannot believe what you have been through. i feel like it would be an insult to offer you sympathy – because you are so strong and graceful in your words – so please just take it at face value that i wish i could wave a wand and erase…

• Hey Mamamilk – you have such a beautiful family – i love that picture. No, my mom would never ditch me – but I’m sure she had her days… When I was a young teenager and acting like a witch to her (as daughters do), my mom used to channel her feelings…

  in Definitely Not a Palin fan Comment by DagnyTaggart
• Kevlar, nice thought, but teenagers – usually – do not get adopted. They’ll be in foster care – which I suppose is better than no care. But I think a 17 year old might do better on his own than in foster care.

  in Definitely Not a Palin fan Comment by DagnyTaggart
• Wow! I can just imagine my mom trying to drop me off at the hospital when I was 17. I know it is a very serious and sad subject – but it’s (inappropriately) funny when I picture my mom trying to ditch me my senior year of high school. McCain is real…

• Hi guys – just checking in to update you on the kale chips. My first try was not a shining success – lol. I put the chips in the dehydrator at about 112 degrees at 10pm last night, went and spent the night at my bf’s, and got home this morning aroun…

• McKinney should be allowed in the debate whether McCain shows up or not. It frustrated me to no end when I was voting for Nader and he wasn’t allowed in the debate. These are not crackpots nominating my cat for President (the grey one – the white on…
