Guest guest Posted March 10, 2006 Report Share Posted March 10, 2006 Hi Reggie, I have been thinking after all this Ipod talk, that it would be pretty fun to give one away at CyberMacro at some point. Using that to get more people involved, maybe in their starting up their own blogs. The author of the best blog entry winning it.

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2006 Report Share Posted March 10, 2006 Funny you should ask about the dating feature. A new one has been under development, and the person that had been working on it for me just overall completed it a day or so ago. I only need to get in the dating profile questions to ask poeple, like what song is playing on your Ipod now?

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 Now I'm in a pickle. If daikon is too cooling what do I do when the temperature is 105 in the shade?

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 in Chinese medicine certain veggies are seen as cooling. In mb though roots are quite yang and have a gathering energy. But if you boil daikon and let it cool it does feel kinda coldish - more so that even if you eat it raw! I think if you combine it with carrots and some ginger and sometimes in miso it is fine... yes cucumbers are pretty cold! But nice! Bender wrote: Now I'm in a pickle.

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 Ok, back from the house wares convention in Chicago. So now it is time to get the macro match feature going at CyberMacro. All of you give me your ideas for questions. That’s a great idea Reggie! Easiest meal, that would make for an interesting question. Sorry but I can’t give you free Ipod’s for your participation. I would like as many of you to put your profiles up as I launch this at CyberMacro. It will not be just geared to dating, but also making connections with others too. Glad to hear the feedback from a few of you that you like the idea for the ipod contest for the blogs at CyberMacro. That will be a bit later on.

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 Hi , You mentioned I believe on your site that the macro mates is not just for singles but for others to find each other. I timidly tried, and then got scared, thinking either someone would get the wrong idea, or maybe it asked for some id and I wasn't sure what to do- or maybe both :>) I've conquered other technical challenges, so I'm sure, one day, I will conquer this one too. Also the challenge of even getting near an Ipod - suddenly I know what it feels to be "old" or rather outdated??? Klara wrote: Ok, back from the house wares convention in Chicago.

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2006 Report Share Posted March 17, 2006 Hi Klara, The new dating feature is not up yet at CyberMacro. What is there at the moment is the old one and not active, it is being replaced. When I mentioned making connections with others besides dating, I really meant just making friends, pen pals etc. When one sets up a profile, they could select that so it would be clear. Hope to show everyone the new site soon. Hey, you are not outdated! Not everyone needs to own an Ipod.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 I got lots of MP3 files on your hard drive, so an IPod makes sense for me. If you have most of your music on Cd’s, that is fine too so an IPod is not as important then. I knew my 13 year old nephew wanted one for his birthday, so I said to my folks, we are getting him one. Yes, I know it was $199.00, but I just had this odd sense that if we did that, somehow something good would come our way to balance out doing that. Oddly enough a customer bought an item from us online that not only does not generate any interest at all, but more than that, just bought it online without questioning the price, if they had, they would have gotten a much lower one as we can not advertise it lower. I think we made something like $249 on the purchase so the universe in the end did provide! What I did was I order the ipod for my nephew online via apple’s site, and got engraving on it, Happy 13th Brad. His 13th birthday had significance, and that did not escape him. I also got him a $15.00 itunes gift card and we gave him to that first just to make him think that is all he was getting. Even with that, he was very happy. But when he opened his Ipod, all was worth it. Unfortunately his brother a few months later apparently broke it, and Brad wanted to send it back to Apple to get it fixed, I was so sure they would just blame him for that and not do anything, he got a new one back. I was so happy that he had more faith than I did on that.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Hi Reggie, Thanks for the welcome back. For the past few weeks, though I have been feeling better, stronger, it seems that the Probiotic I am using, OMX was causing a good deal of candida die off for me. I just went down to a much lower dosage. If I had realized this before, my trip would have been much better, but even with that so productive. I saw so many new things at the Housewares Show in Chicago. Something to grow herbs aeroponically in doors, a gadget to help you brew the perfect cup of tea which does that by telling you when the temperature of water is optimum to seep your tea, with a timer built to measure how long to do it for, lots of nice bamboo cutting boards, very nice but still inexpensive santoku knives, and great pressure cookers. There are some great shiatsu message chairs that will soon be out that I saw where you can hook an ipod to it and sound comes out of the speakers on the headrest. The same company has some very inexpensive massagers too, and nice indoor fountains for not a lot of money. I have a box half filled with catalogs so much more stuff was great seeing at the show too. I hope to add the details of these products that will most interest the members of the group on the home page here soon, thanks Reggie for that. The food at the Chicago Diner was great. I had heard otherwise, but they had apparently just changed their menu a few weeks back so maybe that was the difference. I ate a place called the Cheesecake factory once that may be near some of you. I had grilled salmon with asparagus and broccoli which was done quite well. Whole foods was expensive and oily as always for the food I got out of there. Great if you can get that test for digestion covered via Medicare Reggie. It is a few hundred dollars, but I was just hoping that someone the dr. ordering for you could get it to be covered somehow. Well forgive me for the typos in the post I did just a bit ago about the Ipod. I was working on a project that has been kicking around for a while now, more of you in the group will hear about it later, but wanted to just do that post, so was sort of careless as usual. You are the Macro Queen Reggie, I am the typo King.
