heh, I don’t mind being my first mate, heh.

Though, I think my Cabin Girl will be taking up all my time.

And Howard? A love interest? Maybe in the sense that we both LOVE throwing mimes off the top of 24 story buildings. heh.

hmmm…

This article raises a number of questions to me..

Sure, carbs are REALLY bad, according to every study these days..

but… if high carb diets make you fat.. why is it every Mexican national I’ve ever seen/known has been skinny as hell?

it’s not a high carb diet that makes you fat - it’s eating too much, period, that does.

we’re far too comfortable in this country, and it’s not going to be war that kills us, it’s being too quick on the draw on our dietary habits..

I’m slowly losing weight, because I’ve cut back on the amount of food I’ve been eating (and not by a lot, either). Hmm.

I need to lose a lot more, though.

Update: After reading some of the comments, I’ve realized that my point wasn’t clear, entirely. I posted this to get people thinking, not because I necessarily agree with everything I said. :)
Generalisations are bad, and with diets, they can be deadly.

happy birthday

Their latest press release, they’ve renamed Katie.Com, and fixed their side of the problem.

Trampling all over someone’s rights in the name of money, and then claiming it’s in the name of someone else is pretty shitty to do.

I know, I read the whole thing, there’s much more to it than that, but I’m stating this as *my* opinion on the matter.
