If you can breathe freely and easily, be thankful tonight
Just spent a couple of hours in the ER because I accidentally inhaled a magnesium supplement tablet at bedtime. Lord almighty, it was frightening to have something obstructing the airway. Now, $5000 later (as the doctor joked to me) I am fine. They gave me an inhalor (broncho dilator) and after about five minutes of that I coughed hard and out popped the pill! I was supremely happy about that!!!!!!!
Be careful, kids, with your pills that are hard to swallow.
And stop smoking out there! You don't ever want to end up with bad lungs or trachea.
Now, what does a "magnesium supplement" do for one?
Also, the grasswire primitive will manage to pry those dope sticks only out of primitives' cold dead hands.

1. Glad you're OK!
Years ago daughter, then around 3, stuck a vit. C tablet in her nose! Were on vacation in Scotland. It left the 'premises' sometime that evening, fortunately; ER not necessary. 'Thanks' for the memory!

How does one accidentally inhale a magnesium supplement tablet?

How does one accidentally inhale a magnesium supplement tablet?
Well, I got curious, and looked it up.
What foods provide magnesium?
Green vegetables such as spinach are good sources of magnesium because the center of the chlorophyll molecule (which gives green vegetables their color) contains magnesium. Some legumes (beans and peas), nuts and seeds, and whole, unrefined grains are also good sources of magnesium. Refined grains are generally low in magnesium. When white flour is refined and processed, the magnesium-rich germ and bran are removed. Bread made from whole grain wheat flour provides more magnesium than bread made from white refined flour. Tap water can be a source of magnesium, but the amount varies according to the water supply. Water that naturally contains more minerals is described as "hard". "Hard" water contains more magnesium than "soft" water.
Eating a wide variety of legumes, nuts, whole grains, and vegetables will help you meet your daily dietary need for magnesium.
After looking it up, I'm now convinced the grasswire primitive is, uh, lying when she talks about the food she makes, in the cooking and baking forum on Skins's island. She certainly gives the impression she uses a lot of food naturally with magnesium in it (and hence no need for pharmaceutical supplements).
I'm starting to think the grasswire primitive really lives on a diet of soda and chocolate-covered cherries now.
-
I don't think magnesium supplements are coated so it's powdery, but I don't understand the inhale part, I can understand if she said she took 1 and it got stuck, but how do you inhale 1?
-
When democrats have a prescription pill, they usually grind it into a powder and snort it.
-
When I was a kid I wanted some chocolate milk, we only had Nestle Chocolate Milk powder in the house, I guess I didn't stir it well enough and I actually inhaled the powder, darn throat closed up, it was scary as heck.

Okay, what's up with this, from GOBUCKS' link?
Hikers, bikers and other trail users can expect brown-sugar peach, lemon icebox and deep-dish green apple pies, among other varieties, for $3. Unless they're teachers or public servants, because Smith will serve those customers at no cost.
Talk about subsidizing the rich.
Teachers and public "servants" usually make more money than we common hoi polloi.
One wonders what's up with that.
-
Well, the grasswire primitive, if that's in fact a newspaper photograph of her, looks exactly as I'd always "pictured" her as she drew a portrait of herself with her own words on Skins's island, other than that I didn't expect the eyeglasses. The body build, the age, the hair, an exact match.
I also "saw" the grasswire primitive as perhaps a little bit more drab and tired, but she probably primmed up for the newspaper photograph.
However, that was a stroke of genius on her part--and so kudos to the grasswire primitive--how she managed to fool us into thinking she lived in Wisconsin, when all this time she's in fact lived out in Oregon.
That's good internet safety, and franksolich encourages it.
But.
But.
But.
The grasswire primitive's practically next door to one of the meanest and toughest and feistiest freepers who killed the late red round one. If I were the grasswire primitive, I'd worry.
-
And unfortunately, given the demographics of the area the grasswire primitive's in, it still looks to me as if she's going to have to rent out those 5-gallon jugs of propane, and sell fishing bait, to make a go of the pie shoppe.
She'll have to sell something to pay the bills.

Don't know how you ran across that one but great find.
Reading the article, it states that she has been in OR for two years. Milwaukie, OR. I think she's been fibbing a bit about her WI residence.

I swear, if the grasswire primitive ever again whines on Skins's island about taxing the rich, I'm going to light into her.
Here she is, charging the rich less for pie, than the ordinary people.
You ain't seen nothing until you've seen franksolich light into somebody.
If I were the grasswire primitive, I'd "no comment" at any campfire where the primitives are whining about not taxing the rich.

You weren't around, sir, during my brawls with fratboy Pedro Picasso; those were some time ago.
Anyway, I don't care if Pedro Picasso was more my size (although considerably less my manhood), and the grasswire primitive a little old lady, and it's not nice for gentlemen to beat up on little old ladies.
But that she's charging the rich less than what she's charging the poor--well.
That is unconscionable. That is loathesome. That is beyond the Pale.
If the grasswire primitive ever whines about the rich not being taxed enough, my fisticuffs and brawls with Pedro Picasso are going to look like friendly golf-course banter.

The Wisconsin deal came from the DUmbasses. They all wanted to join her to help deface the Wisconsin capitol building, and she egged them on. It sprang from the DUmbass inability to spell. Her town is Milwaukie, Oregon, which the DUmbasses apprently thought was Milwaukee, Wisconsin. She's been freeloading in Oregon all this time. Whenever a DUmmie would ask to crash in her bonus room apartment, she'd say the space was spoken for, never that it was in another state. I'm not sure, but that might transcend internet security, into the realm of lying. Now that she's been booted from the bonus room, we need to find out where she's freeloading all over again. At least now we know they have "farmettes" in Oregon.
-
There appears to be a lot of poor people there, in a town of 20,000 in the northwestern corner of Oregon.
About 6.2% of families and 7.6% of the population were below the poverty line, including 9.4% of those under age 18 and 6.6% of those age 65 or over.
It's an abomination, that the grasswire primitive's going to charge the poor of Milwaukie more for pie, than she's going to charge the rich.
-
Uh oh.
It looks as if the grasswire primitive's trying to set up business when the place is already saturated with food shoppes.
Currently, the downtown area of Milwaukie is undergoing a revival in which new apartments and retail space are under construction and a riverfront park is being developed. Existing attractions include a Sunday farmers' market and restaurants, coffee shops and stores.
Checking their Chamber of Commerce thingamajiggy, I don't see any merchants selling fishing bait and tackle, or renting out those 5-gallon white jugs of portable propane, and so it's possible the grasswire primitive can make ends meet by becoming the exclusive dealer in those.
-
And maybe to help pay the bills for the pie shoppe, the grasswire primitive could find a job here:
Bob's Red Mill is a modern-day gristmill and natural foods company based in Milwaukie while across the street is the headquarters of Dave's Killer Bread a popular brand of organic whole-grain breads.
-
Milwaukie's most famous native son:
Dave Husted, former professional ten-pin bowler; three-time winner of the PBA U.S. Open
Maybe to help pay the bills for the pie shoppe, the grasswire primitive could install a bowling alley, too.
-
It's an abomination, that the grasswire primitive's going to charge the poor of Milwaukie more for pie, than she's going to charge the rich.
Sold on credit, Sir.
The interest will be something credit card companies would love to charge.
I will be glad to pay you Tuesday, for a pie, today.

Hmmmm.
Surely this, at least for the short term, could take care of the grasswire primitive's magnesium.
City working to clear up water, asking citizens to report problems
Over the past two weeks the City of Milwaukie has been receiving calls from residents reporting discolored tap water. Milwaukie’s Water crews have identified the problem and have been systematically flushing the system’s problem areas to fix the problem.
The City maintains and operates four water zones. The discolored water incidents are coming from the second pressure zone which includes parts of the Lake Road, Hector Campbell, Linwood Neighborhoods, and portions of the Milwaukie Business Industrial area.
One quite reasonably assumes the water has minerals, and hence most assuredly natural magnesium.

Whoa.
Look at the competition for the pie shoppe:
Bar and Grilles
Duffys Irish Pub.
Chinese
ABC Chinese Kitchen.
Kwang Chow Restaurant.
Coffee and Espresso
Spring Creek Coffee House.
Starbucks.
Windhorse Coffee and Tea.
Zelda's Coffee House & Bagel.
Fast Food
Burgerville.
Italian
Da Vinci's Italiano Ristorante.
Japanese
Sushi Kata Japanese Restaurant.
Mexican
El Taco Loco.
La Conga.
Pizza
Figaro's Pizza Westwood.
Pietro's Pizza.
Restaurants
The Bomber Restaurant & Catering.
Chan's Steakery.
Elwoods Diner.
Foxys.
Janet Li Restaurant.
Larry's Garden Golf Restaurant.
Libbey's Restaurant.
McGrath's Fish House.
Runner's Restaurant & Lounge.
Sulley's.
The place seems oversaturated with chow houses, for a town of 20,000, and most of the places listed probably serve pie too.
And they all probably charge both their rich customers and their poor customers the same price.
However, I'm not finding any business that sells fishing bait and tackle, or rents propane, or is a bowling alley, and it seems to me those would be excellent entrepreneurial enterprises, as they'd be unique, no competition.

Most of the cops I knew in small places like Wake Forrest and parts of Raleigh spent a lot of their time answering complaint calls to tell people to knock it off and stop acting like delinquents. It was more like babysitting.

Around here, we don't generally have "police reports," but rather, "court news."
The "court news" is about 90% names and addresses of people who've gotten speeding tickets, and the amounts of the fines. I have no idea why it is, but it's odd that nearly all the names, every week, are from places other than around here.
I figure we locals are more respectful of the laws than outsiders.

It's an abomination, that the grasswire primitive's going to charge the poor of Milwaukie more for pie, than she's going to charge the rich.
Don't be too hard on poor, stupid grasswire. Her excited pie shop announcement at the DUmp was March 11. Today is June 18, and so far she hasn't charged anyone for anything. There is a strong chance that if she ever opens a pie shop, it will be in Portugal, in partnership with TwixVoy. They probably eat olive pies over there.
In a place as saturated with city, county, and state regulation as Oregon, nearly as insane as California, what are the chances of grasswire's dirty, abandoned, rodent-infested, condemned building becoming a pie shop (whatever that is)? With no available startup capital, no commercial kitchen equipment, no business experience, and no idea of codes or health regulations, how long will it take DUmmy grasswire to get all the myriad permits, licenses, certificates, and inspections required by a socialist state like the Peoples' Republic of Oregon? And she's planning to sleep in the place as well!
My bet is the single web page and the story in the local newspaper is as far as it goes.

You're most likely correct.
Would have been interesting to see her make a go of it.
Learn all the gubmint restrictions, all the regs, all the free-loaders...etc.
Perhaps the girl would somewhat understand what we speak of.
Most likely, she wouldn't.

Well, I took a peek at her planned pie shop building on Google Earth. It is an area that has seen far, far better days. I do not believe it's in a neighborhood where live minnows or nightcrawlers are in high demand. She may want to offer do-rags and tattoos to build cash flow, rather than hellgrammites and crickets. And as far as propane is concerned, the less flammable material her neighbors have, the better.
-
Aside from it's moonbattery, Milwaukie is quite beautiful. It's a favorite field trip destination for CAP and Scouts because of the B1 Bomber right smack dab on McLoughlin Blvd. It's a gas station. FYI for those of you who are comic book aficiandos it's the headquarters of dark horse comics. It's also the end of the Oregon Trail. Naturally there's an old pioneer house every school child has been to when studying the Oregon Trail. They have a play about it that plays most of the summer. Every year. The same play. Like seeing the Rocky Horror picture show every Halloween. Well, without the drag queens, Time Warp and aliens from Transsexual Transylvania.
I doubt grasswire would have trouble selling her pies, though. At least for a while. It's a real dining out kind of lifestyle up there. People in the Portland Metro area love this kind of shit. Makes 'em feel all warm and fuzzy, socially concerned and progressive. Saying your proceeds are going to help schools and music programs is practically foreplay for them. She can't compete with Voodoo Donut though! They actually have a maple bar with bacon! You wouldn't think it would be good, but it's awesome! But down here where I am we aren't so pretentious. Fine dining for us is going a mile down the road to the Rose Garden Inn for Reubens, beer, and pool.

Thank you, madam; it's always nice to get an on-the-ground report of conditions.
But as nice a guy as I am, I'm hoping this whole pie-and-jam thing flops, because the grasswire primitive demonstrably has no social conscience, no sense of fairness and equality, no sense of compassion.
This idea of charging teachers and public "servants" less-than-regular prices galls me.
Despite all the whining they do, teachers and public "servants" make more money than most other people.
She's charging the rich less than what she's charging the poor.
Is that not a blatant mockery of all that is good and decent in this world?
I'm not saying she should charge the poor less than the rich--although it would be sort of nice, sort of a Nebraska-Kansas thing, a Christian thing, to give some pies away to the poor during holidays--the grasswire primitive should in fact just charge the same price to all.
To charge the poor more than what one charges the rich is an Abomination; unconscionable.
One notices circa 10% of the town lives below the poverty level, and that could very well (I dunno for sure) include the now-gone-away maudlin waif, the "Mythsaje" primitive, the starving author.
Even though the maudlin waif's a primitive, I don't think he should have to pay higher prices for things than do the bloated haemmerrhoid-afflicted desk-sitters on the public payroll. (For those who don't know, the maudlin waif primitive works for a living--one of the few primitives who does--in the back-room of a K-Mart or Target or something out there, unloading trucks and stuff.)
And so if the grasswire primitive does in fact pursue this charging-the-rich-less-than-the-poor policy, and at the same time whines on Skins's island about all the breaks the wealthy get, this would be a classic example of the gangrenous hypocrisy of the primitives, making a preposterous mockery of all that the primitives allege themselves to be, and to believe.

Well, yeah, maybe, it goes beyond prudent internet safety into the realm of lying, but I'm cutting the grasswire primitive some slack here, given that (a) she's not especially bright, (b) she's a woman, and (c) she's an older woman.
The last thing decent and civilized people would ever do is scare a little old lady.
franksolich is eminently comfortable giving as his location--his true real-life location--either "the eastern slope of the Sandhills of Nebraska" or "the roof of Nebraska," because franksolich is a male in his best years, and perfectly capable of bouncing Fat Che, or any other primitive stalkers, if any of them by chance were to run into him.
The deafness--the inability to know what's on either side of one, or behind one, seeing only what's in front of one--makes franksolich vulnerable, but God has always taken very good care of franksolich.
But a little old lady, especially one who scorns the Glory, the Power, the Majesty, the Compassion, of God, might be a little more nervous, and so it's good to be a little bit vague about location, although admittedly it wasn't really necessary for the grasswire primitive to stretch things that far.
And again, kudos to the grasswire primitive, who fooled franksolich.
franksolich, out here on the roof of Nebraska, on the eastern slope of the Sandhills of Nebraska, is 1500 miles away from the grasswire primitive, and with the creeping gerontological effects of deafness, is generally satisfied staying here. franksolich has never been to Oregon, and could die happy without ever having seen Oregon.
The last thing I want is a repeat of the hippywife primitive, the Mrs. Alfred Packer, fiasco.
You might recall, sir, that the saga of the Packer clan down in northeastern Oklahoma, gleaned solely from the comments of Mrs. Alfred Packer on Skins's island, was apparently so accurate, so true in all details, so real, that she and hippyhubby Wild Bill were convinced that franksolich was actually down there in Oklahoma, tapping their telephone lines and internet, bugging their house, peeking into their windows, following them around, inquiring of their neighbors, opening and reading their mail, that it scared her.
It just didn't seem possible that franksolich could know so much, without actually being there.
And so Mrs. Alfred Packer ran away from the cooking and baking forum, where she had once been one of the most prominent and popular builders-of-campfires, and she's been sorely missed, by both her fellow primitives and decent and civilized people.
This paranoia is utter nonsense.
The primitives have nothing, nothing at all, to fear from franksolich, who's a nice guy, one of the nicest guys one can ever hope to meet.

So she's basically giving discounts to people who make great money, get awesome benefits, and can retire luxuriously, while charging full price to the people who pay them great money, great benefits and pay them to retire luxuriously? So she's like Obama giving tax breaks to his cronies ie GE while the rest of us pay for it? that's DU logic! at least GE provides a needed service and employs enough people to offset the breaks, what will her business contribute overall?

Uh huh.
The struggling aspiring writer, the "Mythsaje" primitive, making $8 an hour at Target or K-Mart or whatever, and who pays taxes to meet the public payroll, will have to pay $3 for a slice of pie, while the wretched old bitch the Die alte Sau, making $70-80,000 a year teaching in Kansas City, will have to pay about half that for a slice of pie.
And probably the grasswire primitive's the sort who'd cut the Die alte Sau a larger piece of pie, with extra topping on top, than what she gives the maudlin waif primitive.
Remember, I'm not saying the grasswire primitive should charge the poor less and the rich more--although it would be mighty humanitarian of her, if she did--I'm merely saying she should charge the same price to all, instead of giving the rich a break.

Oh, no, there's no discounted price for bureaucrats, it's free!
From the article:
Hikers, bikers and other trail users can expect brown-sugar peach, lemon icebox and deep-dish green apple pies, among other varieties, for $3. Unless they're teachers or public servants, because Smith will serve those customers at no cost.
Anyway, this actually gives me a teeny, tiny, microscopic measure of respect for DUmmy grasswire. We were certain she could not open a restaurant in the dirty, rundown slumshack of a building at the corner of Oak Grove and Arista Drive, because of the swarms of health, cleanliness, and building code regulations and inspections one must contend with in a blue hellhole like Oregon. We never considered that she planned a menu of bribery, and in blue hellholes the official government currency is bribery.
So she may get around the bureaucratic obstacles that democrats build to impede business. She'll still quickly fail, because no paying customer would enter that firetrap, nor eat anything produced in on such unsanitary premises.

Okay, I misinterpreted the "at no cost" part, taking it to mean "at no profit to the store."
It was blazingly hot out here in the Sandhills last night, and heat sometimes makes the brain-cells not connect.
Well, well.
If that's the case, it's even worse.
