Metformin and B12.

I was doing some research the other day about the side effects of metformin.One of the things I read was "can cause B12 deficiency".Little light comes on.Hmmm.So I started taking B12.What a difference!Especially with my mood.I was constantly getting grumpy with constant negative thoughts.Thought it was just age(I'm 65 btw).That has stopped.I feel so much better.Anyone else with moodiness,give it a try.As far as I can tell It doesn't affect my BG.

Public restrooms.

Noticing a disturbing trend,more and more stores are no longer providing public restrooms.I have to pee frequently and it's a pain in the ass.Why?Does it really cost that much to maintain a restroom?

Blue pike.

I realize blue pike are considered extinct,but in the Northern US and Canada there are "blue walleyes",they are a blue pike/walleye hybrid.Could there be a way to regenerate the species from these?

Goodbye to HNIC.

It was just announced The NHL and Rogers could not come to an agreement over broadcasting rights.CBC has aired HNIC for over 75 years.And it's over,Why?Corporate greed,pure and simple.Been watching HNIC since I was a kid,and now it's gone,probably forever.

Making lead free jig heads.

I've been making leadfree jig heads.I'm using Rotometals 218,a tin/bismuth alloy.A standard Hot Pot is too hot,I use a Dremel speed control to turn the temperature down to about 350F.The alloy casts very well but it's hard and brittle,little tough go get out of the mold at times.This is a mold with the cavities modified to get them to weigh the correct amount.They weigh 54.7 gn(grains) for 1/8 oz.and 82.0 gn. for 3/16 oz.Then,vinyl jig paints and Sealcoat water based epoxy for finish.
