When eaten in small amounts over time you build up a tolerance to arsenic IIRC. Also when eating organic arsenic is 500 times less harmful than inorganic arsenic.

Just be sure to get the organic variety!

The obsession is trying to fit bigger & bigger engines in that little engine bay while making the damn thing lighter & lighter.
It is kinda stupid & expensive.

It's pretty irrational for me to have 40 pairs of speakers around the house, but it used to be closer to 50. At least 20 other pair need work, then they will be out the door. I guess obsessions about hobbies help us be more rational about the things that really matter.

Regards,

Have you ever considered that perhaps you have an addictive personality?

Myself, I wouldn't want to give my wife that much ammunition. Jewelery stores prey on people like you.

PS: Reminds me of my buddy who bought a brand new Remington 700 BDL w a 3x9 Leupold, and then hid it in the trunk of his car so his wife wouldn't find out. She found out anyway and went out and bought an even more expensive cuckoo clock with her credit card.

I really can't describe the look on his face every time that little bird popped out, every hour, on the hour. Perhaps "cuckoo" is the best definition.

This is a true story.

Sounds like a good target for the Remington!

I am now convinced that ratings is central here.
