"Do not smoke near memory foam." "Do not taunt memory foam." "Do not look at memory foam." "Do not run with memory foam." "Do not mix grapefruit juice with memory foam." Plus it is also probably massively flammable.

“Do not smoke near memory foam.”

“Do not taunt memory foam.”

“Do not look at memory foam.”

“Do not run with memory foam.”

“Do not mix grapefruit juice with memory foam.”

If your mattress is already pretty firm, this cheep combo produces a result indistinguishable from the real thing. An actual Tempur-Pedic only has 2" of memory foam itself. It's the same foam. I can be coaxed out of it only with extreme diligence on the part of the coaxer. Probably it will turn out that there's some hideous carcinogen in the memory foam. That will be a black day.

Is it awesome? Is it difficult to ever leave once one is in it? Does one have to take out a second mortgage in order to buy it? I want to know about the Tempur-pedic bed. Is it awesome?

In my nutrition classes and in my nursing classes, we have such books on our to read lists - they come in a compact version that is easy to interpret. It's really a good idea to peruse such texts, even if you're "only" on herbal supplements. Lots of chemistry that we aren't aware of goes on in our bodies, especially when we mix food and drugs. And drugs and drugs. And drugs and herbs. Etcetera. I also wish to address the topic of farming, but I think I'll do that via email.

Round steak will work just as well, don't forget though to give it a good beating. White gravy, made the real way with pan drippings, equal parts of flour and butter made into a paste over heat with milk added gradually and lots of black pepper is something nice. Like blackeye peas, grits and bacon, southern Missouri style, homey. Flank steak ain’t cheap anymore, at least not around these parts (nor’east).

I've been taking tamoxifen for the last few weeks and have had more than one grapefruit in that time. This new development seriously cheeses me off.

The Mister declared the spreading/sprinkling process to be too labor-intensive and mixed up a dippin' dish of butter and sugar. I am crunching away at this very moment. The spreading process does lend a superior grease-to-crunch ratio, though, so the dippin' option is strictly for the lazy.
