Has anybody read any thought-provoking, bust-a-gut hilarious books lately? I've been reading classics on my kindle until they are coming out of my wazoo. I need a break, but I'm not looking for fluff.

The 6kg (14lbs) of THE best cheese in the multiverse (Stravecchio) that I ordered from SOX in Italy after several years arrived tonight with no trouble at all! I am currently airing it out to bring it back to life. And then... in a few days... if I can last that long... I'm going to enjoy my first slice of something that truly rivals, if not bests... *gasp* Bacon!

A Gay Workplace is a Happy Workplace

"The strength of a business often depends on several factors: the core mission, how that mission is marketed, and who carries it out. When it comes to being profitable, studies show that the more diverse a company is, the more likely it is to succeed..."

Here's an interesting little article on the LGBT Workforce. I would love to hear the thoughts on the points in this article from my LGBT friends, or those who grew up with LGBT family members.

P.S. The title of the article is a little bit weird...

A Wagon Master Called Sue

Now that the Apple and Android phone systems are going head to head, and everyone wants in on the action, it looks like "suing" one another for patent infringements is going to keep the laywers in the black for a while to come. Let's all get on the bandwagon and Sue, sue, sue somebody!



Here's some news that looks like just one company suing another, but in fact there are three or four all intertwined with their lawsuits.

Have a blast, and sue your asses off guys! In the end it all works out for the best for us, the consumer.



I love you!

"Sweet" Dreams

Since I have been consuming a very low amount of carbohydrates for the past ten years along with supplementing with YES supplement's correct blend of parent essential oils (Essentia Fatty Acids or EFAs) my body has become quite sensitive to the insulin spike that goes with the body trying to deal with sugars (Carbs).

I have done so much experimenting with foods and my body's response that I pretty much know what will happen when I consume certain kinds of carbs.

Take this one beer that I am pointing at for example. Beer is very high carb... the equivalent of eight tsp of sugar. Did you know your blood sugar is regulated strictly at about ONE tsp for the entire 4L of blood? Yep. Anything above that and you can die so the body protects you by pumping out insulin to remove the sugar before it enters the blood. How? It turns it to bodyfat. It makes you fat to save your life.

Now, after 10years I can drink very little beer compared to the earlier years. In most cases I simply dont want it. But if I DO drink it, it affects my mood by making me snarky. It affects my motor skills (one SMALL glass!), I get very dehydrated, my sleep is disrupted, I have bizarre insulin dreams and I wake up the next morning with cotton mouth.

Eating pasta has a completely different effect on me. Rice is again entirely different, and so on.

Did you ever stop to realize that food is actually a VERY powerful "hormone" that affects your body in a myriad of ways? Most people dont even realize that their moods are directly connected to the foods they eat. Go to Starbucks and watch a pair of calm, happy children consume a frappuccino and you will see exactly what I am saying. It happens to you and to me, too.

So the next time you are feeling irritated, sarcastic and grouchy just take a minute to step out of yourself and view you from a third person perspective. The chances are high that its not your partner, kids, friends who did something to piss you off, but rather your very own mood shift due to the carbohydrates you recently consumed.

I can say that I know for certain Stefnee and Jenny react this way on carbs, as do I. Check yourself and what you eat; you might just get a rude self-awakening.

Time to go home to weird dreams... Im having trouble typing already.

I love you!

Double the NoRice & Decreace the LowPrice!

Today on my way up the stairs from Shinjuku Stn I stopped at my new protein & vegetable consumption place (no more Mac) and instead of ordering one lunch (hold theendless rice refill) I ordered two! That means two breaded chicken cutlets, two salads, two bowls of miso soup, two... you get the picture. But no delicious, white, succulent Japanese rice (it dehydrates, bloats, and groggies me).

One lunch is not enough for me to hold me over until I eat my obento on the way home, as I have discovered the last few times.

So I doubled up today and it feels just right!
Then on top of than instead of paying an amazingly cheap 500yen for each lunch of this volume (plenty for most mortals) I only had to pay 350yen each! Wow!! What a great price for a sufficient quantity of delicious food that I'm sure will go the full eight hours.

Come to Japan and I'll gladly show you how to eat cheaply without killing yourself on high carb meals.

Off to Kobuchizawa. I haven't been there for several (3) weeks. I'm looking forward to the fresh mountain air.

Have a great Sunday night and Monday.

I love you!
