Today I learned that when some farmers market vendors sell bacon that is preservative free (or fresh), that might include no salt. Also, bacon with no salt on it is like eating a tasteless pork chop.

Gotta keep an eye out for when they say it's uncured

I haven't visited Ravens Talk since the game. I thought I wouldn't be able to stand on two legs after Billy missed that kick but this morning, I listened to Ray Ray's postgame speech and I kinda feel better.
I recommend it if you haven't listened to it already.

That's the truth. Personal opinion, but you can't put a price on intelligence or a girl being down to earth. No matter how they look.

Agreed. Having all of that AND being good looking is a great bonus, but an attractive idiot is just not worth putting up with.

yeah my girldfriend broke up with me kinda yesterday. I still love her. I know how you feel.
However she is calling me later... and i have a plan to get her back. [img]http://content.boards.baltimoreravens.com//public/style_emoticons/default/smile.png[/img]
You always start with saying "I think this break up was the right idea." then you act like everythings cool and even inside it won't. Be yourself that she knew when you were friends. Then once in awhile (don't stalk her lol) just give her a little something or check up on her. Be her best buddy, don't talk about other dudes just be you. Show them basically the grass isint greener on the other side. Then its all in the matter of the universe. My ex says she wants to still be friends which shows she is still interested in me. So best of luck to you buddy. Love is a strong thing.

Let's be careful not to turn this into a 'relationship' discussion. That will get the thread locked down pretty quickly.

[MsMarvel73]

Today I learned that groundhogs are related to squirrels and that capybaras are the largest rodents in the world.

This is what I get for going off on a rant about Groundhog Day.
