That one went out over the air. The lady announcer got to "Ho Lee Fuk" and at the last syllable, she tumbled on the air, and after a hesitation, finished the last syllable with a hesitant "fook".
O raffs.

No background check if you decide to buy something like this (complete with gunpowder and bullets). I've got one of these .44 cal (fun to shoot at night) -- it's like a giant fargin flashbulb... lights up the neighborhood.
Oh... and the cap mechanism: I have the screw-on water-tight cap mod; you can lay the rifle down in a stream, pick it up, and fire it.
You can even buy them by mail. TINS. They are bloody accurate: I shot a pine cone off a fence post from 80 yards away.

Dammit. No sugar <-- Yer bod just don't process sugar when you are in your 80's. Gotta take a sublingual pill every moanin' to replace the chemicals that ancient bods no longer manufacture. <-- Ain't that a bitch?
The sublingual pill makes you drink bathtubs of water so you pee every hour or so, and that is how you process FORBIDDEN sugar as a dotard.
No choklit. No pie/cake/cookies/yada. No coffee or tea or soda**, but if I did, no sugar anyway.
** Nope. Not even diet soda. No caffeine. De-Caf coffee and tea... have caffeine. Verboten.
(*snork*) EXAMPLE: Beautiful Witch and Himself watch a movie each night (we go to the library and take out a bunch each week). While we are watching, I make Her a sundae with ice cream and cookies. I have some cottage cheese. TINS

WHOADIE!! I was s-l-o-w-l-y going through my corrupted file disaster and found one pair of pictures that show my shot-up shoulder taken years before they took out all the bones and replaced them with teflon and titanium.
The shaky arrow at the white mark (I took this forty years ago) shows the actual entry. No jokes about the gorilla back...

One thing you learn while going through Pilot Training: Thunderheads throw iceballs up and out -- over and over again, each time getting bigger.
The thing to fear is that when the hailstones get big enough to fall out of the cycle, they may be quite a ways from the cloud column. This means that if you are tootling along in a dinky plane, be sure to stay MILES from any thunderhead clouds.

@bigsur51 Wow. Lotta work. You might use this excuse to leave a bunch somewhere...
That exact mess is HappyLand for ruffed grouse. Lessee, to quote:
"The ruffed grouse is a bird of the edge, so look in edges of meadows, clearcuts, and where brushy growth meets timber. In September in Oregon, ruffs are generally pretty close to water or sources of food like bearberry and huckleberry. In eastern Oregon, look along creek bottoms which are heavily grown with dogwood, alder and aspen and where there is a good assortment of berries (currant, gooseberry, snowberry, elderberry)..."
Kewl, eh? Ever hear them drumming? My boys useta call them "Thumping birds". Very good to eat.

Wrong color. I think it's a Farmall.
Yeah, they taught us to stay away from storm clouds in a light plane too, for exactly that reason.

My oldest sibling in your age range eats a scoop of real vanilla ice cream desert every evening after supper. Zero issues. Also takes a single scoop of unrefined cane sugar in a large morning cup of coffee with milk. Fasts one day per week. And eats a treat every Friday of a Whole Foods caramel ice cream cake, which must be nearly 1000 calories. Maybe a good reason to fast one day per week,, lol. And like me takes no pills. I eat desert if desired.
We are all different. I do know from my own science background, and in talking to my two medically trained siblings, that maintaining zero body fat helps in regulating everything, keeping hormones in check, and in balance. So getting rid of unneeded weight which shows up as fat appears key. If you eat something sweet for desert after your meal (I eat one) the food already in your gut moderates its absorption & lessens impact on your blood insulin. A little secret.
I truly feel for you guys with heart issues. No caffeine and no chocolate for me would be rough. But at least it is still ticking. So you are too .

We shoot quite a bit of the black and have quite a few different guns now.No background check if you decide to buy something like this (complete with gunpowder and bullets). I've got one of these .44 cal (fun to shoot at night) -- it's like a giant fargin flashbulb... lights up the neighborhood.
View attachment 19167767 Same goes for BP rifles. Here's one of mine -- the .58 cal Thompson Center Big Boar. Mine has a good telescopic sight and strap on it. It shoots through schools. Every shot I ever took hunting with it got me a deer or hawg. The hunt club guys said it killed, skinned and cooked the oink with one shot.
Oh... and the cap mechanism: I have the screw-on water-tight cap mod; you can lay the rifle down in a stream, pick it up, and fire it.

Started as a smartass joke from my son and grew into quite the hobby for both myself and the wife.
Some surprisingly good accuracy and range with a little practice........big fun!
Morning folks! Cloudy before the rain. We're supposed to get some weather. Might have to cut on the NOAA radio later. A nap is on the list cause I tossed and turned all night.
peace

Good morning Oldman and crewHI Sub
I could eat pie anytime, one of my favorite foods ever.
Today I will have to settle for a peach cobbler I just took out of the oven.

Sorry you are having those issues brother! Sage advice and a sad harbinger of things to look forward to!
As a much younger man still in my early 80's, I'm monitoring and controlling my A1C in the normal range, through diet and exercise, which does exclude or limit your litany of verboten morsels.
Limits means in accordance with my moderation in all things, including moderation and life was meant to be lived joyously life plan!
I haven't used sugar or alcohol in any significant quantity for decades, though I still enjoy jam on my half of an English muffin three times a week and occasionally a creme brulee or 1/6th slice of 10" Cherry pie.
No creme brulee so far this year, but this will actually be the second Cherry pie we've shared so far and my A1C remains in the normal range.
I did give up caffeine recently when my tachycardia/a-fib started, but I wasn't drinking that much coffee or tea anyway, so once a week when we eat out and I would typically have two cups of coffee, I drink herbal tea. At home I just drink water.
I did notice my A1C and BP rising during the pandemic shutdown, not because of a diet change, but because of me not being able to walk very far due to my back, nor work out at the gym, so I picked up a stationary recumbent bike for home.
I've found that when I work the major muscles in my body, such as my legs, that my BP and general overall stress level drops.
Here's an interesting article recently sent to me by my friend the Nutrition Magician, on the subject strength training in our 90's:
The ninetysomethings who revolutionized how we think about strength training
One simple exercise proved older adults can build and retain muscle – and caused a paradigm shift in science
