19 g of protein in a 15 oz bottle, and I've never seen a decaf version, but that doesn't mean it isn't out there. It's the Bolthouse farms drinks. I've tried the mocha cappucino and the hazelnut latte and both are really good.

Not familiar with it, but I'm looking for any decent liquid protein sources that my lady can handle. She just went into the puree stage today. In the beginning stages, it's a chore to take in 60 oz of protein AND 64 oz of fluids daily. Liquid protein makes the task easier and she hasn't been a fan of fruit flavored proti-diet drinks as she considered them too sweet.

EDIT: The problem with caffeine is that your system can't take it in the early stages of post-op. You grow a tolerance to it over time, but not recommended until at least over a year out.

Ah. Well, a quick internet search revealed that there aren't any decaf options for this brand. Sorry. :(

Thanks for checking, though! But I guess the next thing I'd ask myself is this: what's the point of decaf coffee? Kinda like what's the point of sugar-free caffeine-free Mt. Dew and 'near beer'? :D

Well, if Kellen wants to go back to that school I say let him. Particularly since he seems to have developed an emotional attachment which may help his behavior.

I have talked with him. He WANTS to go back. I am pretty sure he understands that this is a last chance. That if he has ANY problems than he is done there. He said that he knows if he messes up there than he has lost Ms Toni (the teacher who has been with him through all this and taught his Homebound program).

I am just scared for him. What if he can't do it, what then?
Then he can't do it. But he should be given the option to try. That in and of itself is a good life lesson.

So what your saying is is that this is one of those times that you step back and let them sink or swim on their own. :\

Man I hate those times. I want to protect him from that. But hey, on the up side I can be there with him that first week. They said that they could use me as an aide so that I can be there to help difuse any twitchy situations. When I asked Kellen if he wanted me there for that week he was excited that I could go with him.

Then I think that is a lovely option. Yes but I don't think of it as sink or swim I think of it as rather getting back up on the horse. Just because you fall off doesn't you you shouldn't try again. You want to give him the message that he shoudl keep trying even if the choice is difficult and the consequences severe. Plus letting him know you are there to help him if he is having an issue is always what a child wants to know.

+1. Well put, CJ.

Edit: That was weird.

Why is it wierd Badgerboy?

Oops. Not you. My response somehow ended up in the middle of the post on the first try.

I was worried when I saw that I had over 200 posts to catch up on. Thankfully, 150 of those were "mine!" or related.

I will not offer any confirmation or denial on the grounds that it might be incriminating. :)


Well, off to go get to work. Trying to get all the junk from the garage carted to the dump today. This will take a while.

Well off to get ready for the day and start gettig ready for the return of my Pathfinder group. I'm going to do race conversion for Warcraft d20 and use them in my game to see how they work out. Let you know later.

Right now, I want to work on the races. About half my players are new to the system as well as my group, so I don't want to bog them down with too much house rule stuff to begin with. Once I get the races done, I will convert the tinker, just for you.

In the meantime, your first race to conquer should be the Tauren.

Wasn't there an anthropomorphic rat race in Adamant's Tome of Secrets? Or are we talking about something different?

Very complex which is why I gave up doing it myself and said "Hey you know what,"I said to myself,"David is not half bad with this and he seems a lot less lazy than I."

Yes, my concept was in fact awakened rats that have then been trained as druids and who awaken their brethren once they reach the proper age. So while Druid is not the default Favored class of the races or even the default religion it holds a tight grip on the community society in and of itself since they would not be without the blessings of their elders who are in fact Druids.

Otherwise, your concept stil moves around on all four legs and don't wear any form of distinguishing clothes. Would they even be able to hold and fight with weapons or utilize spell components? I guess I'm not getting the full grasp.

First link is forbidden while the other two were blocked for me. But I can tell from the link description where you might be going...

EDIT: I can see the last one, though. 1 out of 4. :D

Yeah that was the idea but I couldn't pull it off so I asked David to give it a try.

Of course I could just go for small size

Morning. Oh, wait a minute, it's not morning anymore. Sick day. No work for me. Uggh!

Speaking of cold meds....I'm currently taking a liquid variety: Tylenol Warming Cold Multi-Symptom. It works great, but tastes terrible. The "flavor" is supposed to be honey-lemon, but it almost makes me want to..

Spoiler:
...lick a dog's butt just to get the taste out of my mouth.

I mean, seriously, this stuff is nasty.

Go to "A Plea to My Fellow Gamers"

I pulled my original post, thinking it would end the thread (I'm not very Computer Literate). It didn't and now I'm getting more attention than what I wanted.

You are not at fault for asking for civility. The people who can not understand a basic human need such as being polite, they are the ones who need major levels of medication in their daily diets.

Well, Daniel decided that his experiment was too dangerous to go forward, despite the fact that it might lead to his life-long dream of learning the secret language of the platypus.

Smart move. Although I had to mention what I did so that Watcher didn't seem like he was holding the bag.

I wade into those threads, but I just don't allow myself to get into the argumentative phase. I just make sarcastic quips or ignore them all-together. It ain't worth it.

Besides, I already know I'm right. :P
