The Taurine controversy rages on. Will the vile make me big or small, will I get to the tea party on time? Clearly more debate is needed, although I don't believe we should tie up the UN with this sort of thing.
JR and I are working from home again today so any comments to the blog will be dealt with more or less straight away (please allow for a delay if I happen to be doing mathematical operations like counting on my toes when the comment comes in).
Well better get to it. Enjoy your day.

Taurine:
aka vitamin T42A/ķ
Essential for proper functioning of the genes that code for bloodthirst, ire and festive-related grumpiness.
Cannot be manufactured in vivo but is absorbed via the jejunum following oral intake.
The form in your bottle is likely to have been made from the tears of little children (<5 yr old, battery farmed), which are collected by Grumogrickles, snap frozen in liquid nitrogen and then crumbled. They are then mixed with dolphin blood and harp seal fur, and added to water to produce your tasty beverage.
Happy now?
(sorry for the delay, that toe thing)
I'm always happy. But I thought Grumogrickles were extinct - or at least feeling poorly.
i was going to mention the cat blindness thing, as something I knew about taurine. weird the things that stick in the brain, eh?
so you are saying taurine sticks in the brain - making it all gummy like a hard candy found down the the backseat of the car?
cool
More like chewing gum if you put it in the freezer, I think. But Amanda is Chief Scientist and I defer to Her Superior Knowledge.
My taurine fix of choice is called 'Rock Star Energy Drink'. It's got 1894mg taurine per 473ml. and it has a 'recommended dose' too. It is not to be mixed with alcohol and also printed on the can is- Do not consume more than 500ml per day. (in English and French, naturally)
beats drinking stomach bile.
Except when you're in the mood for bile, that is.
Oui, naturellement, Mme. Amanda.
well, in the interests of science and also cos the stuff is called Rock Star fer fecks sake, I decided to be reckless. mixed it with alcohol (HINT-red wine possibly not the best choice there)and drank some from a second can.
report later..
now don't go getting too far ahead of the class.
