How do you know when a hockey game is over in the leper colony?

How do you know when a leper baseball game is over?

I had a flight today so I tried using the electronic boarding pass sent directly to my PDA (Android). It did not save any time at the airport although it could have.

Important travel trip: If you use the electronic boarding pass you need to enlarge the scan square thingy before you reach security:



Note: Don't try this one at home kids, it's just a random one I snagged from Google images.

That thing is mesmerizing.

I'm looking for hidden meaning in it.

A friend recommend I try "My Fitness Pal" It's one of many online diet/exercise trackers.

So I joined and dutifully entered all my food for yesterday.

I leaned that "Sliced Turkey" is supermarket speak for "Block of salt". I blew my entire daily sodium ration (and then some) on one sandwich. Doh!

Yeah, pretty much any processed meat is a protein rich salt mine. When god invented meat he didn't intend us to eat it months after we smote it.

Huh. I wonder if I could get away with turning part of the conference room into a Turkey pen. We could call it a petting zoo.

On a more practical note, Using the processed meats I was able to make two weeks worth of sandwiches at a time and just toss them in the work fridge for easy lunch time meals. If I switch to using freshly smoted meats I suppose I could still cook two weeks worth at a time, freeze half and make sammies out of the other half for the next week. I'll have to make that part of the Sunday night routine.

I've recently eaten a couple of sandwiches with packaged healthy (expensive) not-salted sliced turkey, and boy did they need salt. (I applied a small amount of sea salt and lite "salad dressing," but the result was pretty meh.)

If I use fresh (ie cooked at home) turkey/chicken I can add a couple of slices of hard salami to each sandwich for flavor and still reduce my sodium intake by ~80%.
