I just noticed on Strava that a guy I follow is recording his ski runs.

6500 for the year…….. Hopefully that is not the end number.
Mo, That sounds like what it could be. I got on the bike last night immediately after taking ice off my leg which may be why the pain was worse.
Talking to another cyclist who has this, keeping knees warm is just one of the many steps.

There is some evidence it might help with degenerative arthritis of the knee, but studies are conflicting. The best studies use 1500mg/day. Safe and harmless, ok to try.

This is not surprising to someone that regularly travels through VW. It's kind of sad. It's a beautiful state and my trips through have convinced me that they could really do a bang-up job with tourism. They just need to work on some curb appeal - stop using that elbow grease to cling on to mining and instead clean up some of the junk-strewn front yards, maybe not lean in to the whole Confederacy thing so much and bring some more of the local arts and sights to the fore.

Indeed. Mrs. GeneJockey likes to try to play the baboon bassoon. Nowadays, she does it in the garage, with the doors closed. Better for all concerned.

Our former home was in extreme se Ohio. That red and purple area was and is a major center for Oxy, heroin, meth, weed, alcohol, ignorance, you name it. The guy who bought our farm burned the barn down with his meth lab. It's also a major center for poverty due to lack of education and job opportunities. There are families who have been on welfare for generations, and know nothing else. And, as whyfi mentioned, it is beautiful country.

Oof. I keep a couple of hoodies hanging on the coat hooks and I'll toss one on whenever I'm chilly (which isn't too uncommon now that we have to heat the house). Anyway, I threw one on just now and it was *instantly* apparent that I was wearing it when I made murgh makhani (butter chicken) from scratch the other night. Smells wonderful when you cook it, not so much when it's clinging to clothing days later.
