  1. ah, Christmas. a time to think about your fellow man, and how one might help better the lives of those less fortunate. a time of reflection, introspection, and assesing ones own life.

    awwwfuckit! they're having a sale at Wal-Mart. i can get a DVD player (so i can spend even more time not interacting with my family, friends, humanity) for only $29!!!

    gee, i can't wait to see the security video of this incident. <_<

    sigh

  2. He's staying at the Four Seasons Hotel here in Las Vegas. all the news crews are at the McCarren Executive Airport waiting to catch a shot of him leaving town.

    i think he thinks he's gonna beat this rap. while his house was being searched, he was busy at a local movie memorabilia store, dropping $40,000.

    soooo, the parents of the child in question didn't go to the cops when they found out? instead they allowed Jackson to pay thier medical bills, and buy them stuff? WTF.

    they didn't seek counsel until he kid was being harrassed by classmates?

    something ain't right there.

    if anyone molested my kid, it would take an act of G*d to keep me from reaching down that SOB's throat and pulling his pecker up and out. :angry::angry::angry:

  3. Any readers of poems here? If so, what authors do you like?

    Basho Matsuo, Shiki Masaoka, Issa Kobayashi (haikuists) are just a few of my favs.

    but lately i've been involved with an internet group that occasionally writs 'Renku' which is linked Haiku that many people write together.

    as for traditional poetry, i dig Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Charles Bukowski, Patti Smith et.al.

  4. 2 years ago my weight was 325+ pounds. at 5'8" tall i was a great big fat MF. tho i had been a powerlifter for many years, i was FAT. i felt crappy all of the time, had no energy, and had trouble keeping up with my then 2 year old daughter. i knew i had to change. so over the next year or so i read everything i could about weight loss, food, health and slowly began changing my diet. i cut out processed carbs (most bread, snack items) and cut out red meat and dairy. i lost some weight, and felt better. then i got serious.

    i started eating organic veggies and fruit. free range chicken (when it was available) or chicken that was antibiotic and hormone free. same for red meat (for the kids and wife).

    so, i'm down to 220 lbs, my cholesterol went from 265 to 145.

    my first goal was to get to 225 pounds. my new goal is 190. last time i weighed 190 pounds i had a 32 inch waist.

    the one big change was this: i no longer live to eat. i now eat to live.

    going out to eat brings challenges. i usually ask if they have some fresh veggies they could steam or saute in a little olive oil served on a bed of fresh spinach. or i'll have a spinach salad. there is usually something on the menue that i will eat. i make little comprimises, but very little.

    a typical day for me:

    breakfast-a little brown rice, pinto beans, veggies, sauted in olive oil.

    lunch-fruit, fresh spinach, carrots, broccoli with olive oil/balsamic vinegar

    dinner-fruit, almonds, sunflower seeds, hummus (home made).

    i eat my big meal for breakfast usually, sometimes i switch breakfast and lunch. dinner is always light.

    i snack on almonds, sunflower seeds and pistachios (trader joe's habanero :tup ) or dried fruit. i don't count calories or watch my fat intake, but the fat i eat is mono or poly unsaturated and high in omega-3's and 6's.

    i hit the streets walking or use the treadmill.

    if i want ice cream i have either Soy Deams or Rice Dreams.

    i eat a little chicken, or fish occasionally. sometimes i'll eat a piece of beef jerky.

    i haven't eaten at a fast food joint on well over a year, but i have nicked a french fry or two from the kids. :lol:

    i refuse to eat:

    white bread, or bread that has had all the fiber destroyed.

    anything that contains 'Partially Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil'.

    dairy

    soda

    my big vice: cigars. :lol:
