Good morning my fellow O/TersIt's a lovely sunny morning here in rural Warwickshire, the bacon & sausage breakfast sandwich was truly excellent and I have nothing urgent to do today except finish off a powerpoint presentation.
I know it's a Wednesday but tell me dear reader, what's great about your day?

My cousin owns a couple of Gites in France.The local village is just as you describe, there's a fountain in the centre of the square where people come to collect the water (it's from fresh springs or so I was told). The place could best be described as 'sleepy', the local bar does great food and there's a wood-fired oven bakery. Paradise (apart from the French, obviously).

As he minced down the street in his hotpants and crop top, he whistled a happy tune.Harley looked up at him and seemed to smile, in a gormless bug-eyed kind of way. Windy Pig smiled back at the small ugly dog and swished his long ginger locks in the flowing breeze. Then he saw him. His heart stopped for a moment as the sun reflect off this vision of beauty. He was dazzled, the reflection on the bald head seemed just perfect.
He was wearing a tweed suit and carried a large cane, his beard was fulsome and bushy. Who was this vision, this ethereal creature of pure desire. He wracked his memory and remembered him from the basket weaving class the week before. It was Two Hats. But, why was he not wearing a hat?

"If I were a rich man, yoddle oddle eddle oddle iddle umm. I would... nah nah dum dee dum deee dum. If I were a wealthy man."The young jewish bagel enthusiast sang as he put the key into the lock. He smiled to himself as he entered the house, throwing the key onto his ikea dresser and bounding up the stairs to his room. The door flew open and he stopped dead in his tracks as what lay before him. He had known Amberl for a while but to see her tied up on the bed, that was quite something else. The knot in his stomach eased slightly and he smiled crookedly.
"Don't worry love, this one isn't going to be clinical," he said and pulled out a cream cheese, asparagus and salmon bagel from his pocket. he took a bite for luck then walked slowly to the bed....

apparently NO modulates estrogen's effect on osteoblast activity.at least in rats. Says pubmed.
However that's nitric, not nitrous oxide, and I would assume the take-home from that is that NO might be able to control bone loss associated with the menopause. Which is pretty much the exact opposite of what you reckon the Mail said, so no surprise there from the shitrag.
