I'd add that the audiobook is amazing also.

When making mac and cheese just cook the pasta in milk, then when it's ready add in the grated cheddar, mozzarella and cream cheese and stir. Job done.

I gave my wife a ring made out of coconut. Cost me $2 and she instantly dropped it off the balcony if the resturaunt we were at. The Thai owner of the place climbed off the balcony into the boulder field underneath and spent 20 minutes looking for it. Even after I explained that it was only a cheap coconut ring. He said the price isn't the point, it's the memories!
He found it, what a legend.

Maybe they're telling people to go touch grass.

It just changes the direction of the cable so instead of sticking straight up the cable gets redirected and now is nearly behind the deck and flowing down.

Stalker was good for this, realistic weight allowances, the more you carried the quicker your stamina went dien until you couldn't jump and then couldn't walk.

I have had life changing injuries. I broke my shoulder in 6 places and needed surgery to put it back together. This meant I lost my job as a carer at a nursing home because I could no longer move patients (out of bed, picking them off the floor, washing them etc) and it took almost three years for me to get full use of my arm again.
I have all the strength back now after all the physio but will never have the full range of movement because they had to shave the socket deeper when rebuilding it, this means that when climbing overhangs that traverse to the right I struggle a bit, but it's a challenge to overcome not a reason to give up.
I don't look forward to how much all these injuries might hurt when I'm older but in my opinion it is all the more reason to enjoy life while I can, being old and sore is going to happen whether I like it or not, might as well have some good memories.

Probably not what you were thinking but there's plenty of stories of dogs not leaving their owners after death like Greyfriars bobby.
Also elephants are known for mourning their dead.
I think if I donated my body to science and they were all done with it, and they could make more money for research by selling bits off to weirdos that would be fine by me. Maybe put a little QR code on it that people could scan and get a little biography of me. That would probably make archeology a lot easier.

Reminds me of the writing of David wrong / Jason pargin who wrote the John dies at the ends series of books.

I don't see the problem. Loads of people have skulls of other animals on display. Why should a human be treated any different.

A lot of people have said that I'm really unlucky, but I'm still skiing, climbing and biking. A disturbing number of my friends have broken their spines at one point or another or have a ridiculous amount of metal holding them up, so I consider myself very lucky indeed.
Also very grateful for the NHS.
