I already have a history of colon cancer in my family and am also predisposed even more because I have PSC and can get other complications. I'm 34 and get screened about every other year. Twice since my diagnosis. The prep sucks, but they have pills instead of drinking a nasty liquid. and it's an amazing nap. Colon cancer is generally a slow growing cancer.

i do the same. sans the wife. yearly physical, optomoligist, and bi annual teeth cleaning. super easy and free with any basic insurance. no reason not to and it will avoid so many expensive problems when you really get old.

We do the same thing actually with our territories. Most of them have their own international football team. They simply never qualify for anything and this aren’t as noticeable as the UK.

The UK as a whole would likely be a stronger team, but who knows if it’d lead to larger issues with team chemistry and whatnot.

THere's nothing wrong with individuals privately pondering their own political future yesterday, today, last week, or next month.

People are perfectly capable of regretting the loss of a friend/colleague and also pondering their own future at the same time.

McClellan would make a great congresswoman, but as a Virginian I prefer her as a State Senator or Governor dealing with issues that are more day to day concerning my life and my family.

Stoney however can go to Congress and spend his day raising money for his party- the real work of Congress.

no, it's a useless and completely unrelated observation. The likelihood that a dog will attack is by far a secondary concern. What matters is the outcome of those attacks, when they happen.

If I tell you that when sharks attack you are likely to die, and you reply YEAH BUT GOLDFISH ATTACK MORE OFTEN! then either you are being obtuse on purpose, or you just don't get it.

I always pull for whoever the smallest country left is once the US is eliminated.

Follow up question....how come the UK plays as multiple countries? If that is the case why couldn't we send a team from California and Texas etc...

Would England perform better in the world cup if they didn't dilute their strength like this?

It bothered me because I paid $550 out of pocket for it and all they told me was you have intolerances not allergies. You should go to a dietician. Money straight to the toilet.
