These single word movie titles can easily become muddled - I was probably thinking of "Divergent". :-/<br /><br />We have seen the 2004 "Crash" - good one.<br /><br />I enjoyed those old steam typewriters - could hammer away at breakneck (or breakfinger) speed, get a nice rhythm going with the tap-tap-tap-tap---slam..ting -(new line)..tap-tap-tap-tap I'm slower on the computer keyboard. :-)Twilighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14138621610593773784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-42472375857204340362015-03-05T16:20:03.804-06:002015-03-05T16:20:03.804-06:00Funny!

This morning I dreamed I'd accepted a new job but was alarmed to discover I'd be typing on an old-fashioned thingamajig ~ more sophisticated than a typewriter but not as sophisticated as the computer I now use.:) We watched the movie, "Disconnect" last night, so maybe that's why. <br /><br />It reminded me of the movie "Crash" only it centers on technology and how it connects (or disconnects) us:<br /><br />http://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/disconnect-2013<br /><br />Maybe you've already seen it?LBnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-6490551482822521802015-03-05T14:19:50.911-06:002015-03-05T14:19:50.911-06:00mike ~ I see what you mean about Edward Gorey - th...mike ~ I see what you mean about Edward Gorey - though Gorey's art was more finely detailed and precise, Atkinson's is simple (none the worse for that!)<br /><br />Spoilers are fun, yes.

Atkinson is wry and dry! I like his "spoilers"..."Pictogrammar" is LOL, too. I quickly searched for DOB, but nothing on the net. There's a semblance of Edward Gorey in some of his drawings.mike (again)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-14799417959905156202015-03-05T09:36:17.610-06:002015-03-05T09:36:17.610-06:00Sonny - special message!

DHEA is readily available over-the-counter and is inexpensive. I'd start with about 100 mg/day for a couple of weeks, then increase to 200 mg/day, IF NEEDED. At the end of six to eight weeks, lower and maintain the dosage to 25 mg/day. <br /><br /><br />https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/the-breakthrough-depression-solution/201107/is-your-depression-linked-low-dhea-levels<br /><br />http://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements/dhea/evidence/HRB-20059173<br /><br />From Mayo:<br />"To treat depression, 5-450 milligrams of DHEA has been taken by mouth daily for up to six weeks, alone or in addition to antidepressants. DHEA has been taken by mouth starting at a dose of 100 milligrams up to 500 milligrams daily for eight weeks (increasing by 100 milligrams each week)."mikenoreply@blogger.com
