If you're going to have a grizzly

When I was a pup, my father told me “If you’re going to have a bear, have a grizzly’

His wisdom had the most impact on what I eat, I’ve always been a healthy eater as rule but like most, life is not worth living without indulging in the delights that aren’t on the healthy list.

Sugar free drinks- Never, If I’m going to enjoy soft drink, which is usually in a bourbon, it must be the real deal.

Low fat milk, cheese, yogurt, and anything that claims to be low fat, not interested, I’d rather eat less of the real deal and none of the tasteless, artificially modified versions.

Low salt, again, I’m not remotely interested in a food that needs the right amount of salt for good taste only to be bland for the sake of minimal health benefits. I’d rather eat less full salt food and none of the tasteless salt reduced crap.

Mid strength alcohol, my all-time hate, what’s the point, what is worse than being bloated by mid-strength beer with a buzz your grandmother would attribute to her blue pills.

  • Well said enjoy life in moderation

    • Lol Poppa, I didn’t put thought into the title, now that I have, I must delete the topic. 

  • I think everything in moderation no matter what you are doing.

    That goes for hobbies, relaxation and exercise. Too much of anything is not good for you but Gees it's tough to limit something that you love. Self control is something that I lack at times but I'm getting better...

"Yeah Warriors look great at the moment. Hopefully playing the others puts us in some form so when we do play Dogs and Warriors we've ironed out any of the early season defensive kinks."

"Walker at 6 makes us weaker. He is so important as a link man. Doorey you do not want to complicate his role. He does pass out the back in block plays at times but his job is simple get one on one and make metres running off the back fence."

"Warriors are dangerous, their pack of JFH, Ford, Barnett, Clark, Halasima, Capewell and there are more. Boyd and Metcalf eventually in the halves.

"Now that i do agree with in that Pezet is overrated. He was rated as a great signing and brilliant, i would not say that at all. 
And Mutts is right, 2 of his try assists were luck and his try was luck from a poorly excecuted kick."

Eels V Dragons 3-2-1

What a sea sawing game, with the referee really trying to influence the result. Some desperate digging deep in defence and working under fatigue coupled with some very very bad ball play by the Dragons has let us take the 2 points. So much more…
