  1. Regarding sodas - I drink diet soft drinks. I need my daily caffeine fix.

     

    I was told years ago that corn tortillas were healthier than flour. And of course rice is a no no for diabetics.

     

    My doctor told to be avoid 5 things - potatoes, pasta, bread, rice, cereals. And fruits and veggies like citrus, grapes, corn, peas.

  2. I've had diabetes for over 10 years. I watch my diet. My mother had it; she died at 56. Her mother had it and though she lived into her 80s it cost her both legs.

     

    Two of the most expensive meds I take - insulin and Janumet - are for diabetes. My only prescription insurance is Medicare Part D. Both meds are on a high tier. Thus they cost more out-of-pocket.

  3. The winter 2019 new season of Shameless will be quite different without Ian & Fiona. They both will be missed. It will be interesting to see how it’s handled.

     

    Yes, Ian in the same jail cell with bf Mickey would have made for some interesting story lines.

     

    I thought the new season was supposed to start this month.

     

    This article says that it returns 20 January

  4. Where would I find this show, or even The Foster. I do not watch many TV shows like the ones you mentioned.

     

    It's on a network called Freeform

    I have not watched the tv set in months. I have CBS All Access and Hulu. I got the Hulu with live TV upgrade. I have Showtime on Hulu. I watch online.

     

    I have DishTV. I think the last time I watched anything was the HBO movie about Queen Victoria and her Indian servant Abdul.

     

    I was paying over $150 per month for DishTV. I have cut back and now just pay the basic of $36 per month. I keep it as a back up.

  5. This is the spin-off from "The Fosters". It centers around Callie and Mariana. They have now both finished college and are working in Los Angeles. Callie as an intern for a conservative judge and Mariana at a high tech company.

     

    They live in a communal flat. Shared kitchen and bathroom.

     

    First night there Callie had sex with a male flatmate. And they had sex another time. But later we see him having sex with another guy!

  6. I've been watching the episodes from the late 60s, early 70s. Episodes from fifty years ago; I remember watching them when I was a teenager.

     

    In some of the early episodes a white male suspect is referred to as a "Male Cauc". "Cauc" for Caucasian. Sounds odd / funny (ha ha) when one hears it.
