    Every time this subject comes up it's usually split between the
    Titanic menu and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice Menu.
    I'm kinda partial to the TDCJ menu, myself:

    Fried chicken, French fries, a jalapeno burger from Whataburger,
    Dr Pepper, and Pecan + Moon Pies. Most people on death row ask
    for a beer, too.

    -sw

    I'd ask for Spumante champagne..... ;-)

    I wonder if food tastes have anything to do with the odds of ending up
    on death row?

    They're probably getting ready to do a study.
    I read years ago that pink calms down the prisoners; do you think pink
    lowers the testerone?
    Dee Dee

    Gods. It'd drive me MAD!
    I strongly dislike pink and other pastel colors.

    Saturated jewel tones and black are more my cup of tea.

    Royal blue, royal purple, kelly green and black are my favorite colors.
    ;-) Lavender is about the only pastel I can stand.

    But, I'm a girl so testosterone does not enter into it unless I overdose
    on DHEA.

    Nevermind, long story. :-P
    I'll never do it again.

    Prime rib, rare....baked potato with butter and sour cream, brussels

    Or:

    Large garbage pizza from Tonys (local joint) with the braided
    crust....ice cold Budweiser

    Or:

    My mom's pot roast and potatoes.

    But whatever the main course: a bottle of Jim Beam and a pack of
    Marlboro for dessert.

    The first sounds tempting... but since I rarely eat pizza due to the
    pain, that'd be tempting, but I'd have to make my own so I could drown
    it in cheese. <G>

    No matter HOW much I ask for "extra cheese" when I order pizza, it's

    You should asks for Dee's share of cheese. I'm the one that always says,
    "Easy on the cheese." or "No extra cheese, please."

    Does everyone have a story on DHEA (is that what you were referring to:
    DHEA?) ??
    I have my story, too. But it's either too stupid/corney or terrifying,
    depending on who's listening or telling it.
    It's certainly not for anyone's ears.

    Just enough DHEA is a good thing.
    Increases strength and is good for attitude and Libido.

    I prefer to wear navy, but I don't find much choice in what I want to wear
    in navy; it's always black. Someone must gobble all the navy up before I
    get there --
    I'm a warehouse shopper/dresser; it's hard to find the X-Large, too; they've

    It was more than just nervous.... ;-)
    Think serious PMS, then triple it.

    And blame the world.

    I might have a genetic pre-disposition to "'roid rage".
    Excess DHEA in females is converted to Testosterone. Not so in men.

    That's why I was doing it. It helped a LOT in weight lifting and I
    still have arm veins from hell now, but it was not worth the emotional
    hell. I increased my deadlift from 90 lbs. to 160 lbs. in only 5 weeks.

    I only did it for about 1 month or so. 100 mg per day is supposed to be
    the max for females in my age group. I'm 44.

    I was doubling that.

    Bad idea. <G>

    The trick was in realizing what was doing it. That's not easy when you
    are being irrational and there are outside stressors adding to the mess.

    Just enough DHEA is a good thing.
    Increases strength and is good for attitude and Libido.

    Too much had me climbing the walls and I almost quit my job........
    HORRIBLE mood swings.

    I'm glad you've conquered any problem with DHEA. I haven't noticed any
    mood
    swings here.
    I don't like even being a little bit nervous.
    Dee Dee

    It was more than just nervous.... ;-)
    Think serious PMS, then triple it.

    And blame the world.

    I might have a genetic pre-disposition to "'roid rage".
    Excess DHEA in females is converted to Testosterone. Not so in men.

    That's why I was doing it. It helped a LOT in weight lifting and I
    still have arm veins from hell now, but it was not worth the emotional
    hell. I increased my deadlift from 90 lbs. to 160 lbs. in only 5 weeks.

    I only did it for about 1 month or so. 100 mg per day is supposed to be
    the max for females in my age group. I'm 44.

    I was doubling that.

    Bad idea. <G>

    The trick was in realizing what was doing it. That's not easy when you
    are being irrational and there are outside stressors adding to the mess.

    Thanks for sharing a 'somewhat similar' story to mine.
    Ten years ago I was 61. I was hiking, trying to bike a little, doing some
    Tai Chi & Qi Gong, Treadmill, minor weight-lifting (no more than 10 #,
    because I am by nature very frail). I got a book on DHEA, read a little bit
    more, and decided to take some -- it was minimal at the time, as I recall.
    I think that the daily requirement number has lowered since then, but I
    haven't kept up on it.
    It was not very long that I started swelling in the "bra department," and
    not long after that that I discovered THE LUMP! Well, the rest is history.
    Probably the cancer was already there, and perhaps the DHEA caused it to go
    on a rampage; but one will never know. But, it did make me feel like a
    million dollars for a short while.
    Best of health,

    Really???
    As far as I know, DHEA does not increase Estrogen does it?

    I still take 100 mg. 4 to 5 days per week.

    How To Prevent Breast Cancer
    DHEA Boosts Estrogen Levels

    DHEA replacement therapy is another natural way of replacing estrogen levels
    diminished by the aging process. DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone) is a
    precursor to the sex hormones. It is transformed into estrogen,
    progesterone, and testosterone within the body, all of which are needed at
    youthful levels to avoid the deterioration of aging. One problem with taking
    DHEA to replace depleted sex hormones is that the ratio of these hormones
    converted from DHEA is uncertain. A better way of controlling the amounts of
    each hormone within your body is to supplement them specifically.
