OddHat Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 Re: A Thread for Random Musings In practical terms, it's almost never a mistake to eat more vegetables (excluding grains, nits and legumes, which have their own issues). It's rarely a mistake to eat more fruits, though food timing can become an issue. It's rarely a mistake to eat more lean protein, though here food timing and protein source choices start to matter more. It's usually a good idea to add more Omega 3 fatty acids. It's often a good idea to add more monounsaturated fats. It's usually a good idea to reduce polyunsaturated fats. It's sometimes a good idea to add more saturated fats, but fat source becomes very important; all saturated fat sources are not created equal. It's always a good idea to avoid trans-fats. It's usually a good idea to avoid white sugar, white flour, and white rice, but not always. It's sometimes a good idea to avoid all grains and legumes. Adverbs of dietary frequency.

Bazza Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 Re: A Thread for Random Musings With the USA Presidential election only months away, this thought occurred to me today: How much of America is controlled and directed by Americans? Likewise, how much of Australia is controlled and directed by Australians? My intention is not to be disingenuous, but to ask honest historical questions without moving (not the best word for what I mean) into conspiracy theory.

Logan D. Hurricanes Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 Re: A Thread for Random Musings We get some classic requests here at the library. This one is from another librarian: Yesterday I was at our reference desk when a serious young lady appeared and said "I'm doing a paper on Satan, and I don't see anything in your biography section."

Old Man Posted September 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2008 Re: A Thread for Random Musings I guess the thing that bothers me most about aging is the constant reduction in possibilities in your life. Once you go to college, that'll be the college you went to, forever. Once you get married, that's the one person you're ever going to be romantically linked to, forever (theoretically). Imagine if you were a writer and you could only ever write one story, in order, without being able to go back and fix things you've already written.

OddHat Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 Re: A Thread for Random Musings Just can't motivate myself to keep blogging right now. I don't want to keep repeating myself, or to whine on endlessly about my setbacks. Don't have much new to crow about either, though things aren't going badly. Daily blogging only really works well when you're focused outside of yourself, rather than looking inwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkdguy Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 Re: A Thread for Random Musings So you thought the Cuban taekwondo competitor kicking an official was newsworthy? North Korea does one better! Odds are, this could be propaganda, but it makes for a good story (or adventure hook). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
