urbpan: (PART OF EVERYTHING)
I just read this article which is incredibly inspiring and makes me want to not post the next two things I'm going to post because they don't fit into my plan of long-term success.

OR DO THEY?

I'm not really sure any more. I want to be productive and creative and true to myself, but I also want to enjoy my yard, take weekends off, and drink heavily occasionally. Do I have the energy for it all.

No probably not.

I should take Alexis' advice and just plan the Urban Nature Walks I want to do and put them on the calendar and stick to them. I'm worried that my nature walk-leading ability is getting very rusty, and that not only am I not learning new things, but I may be forgetting things I used to know.

My dream of being the foremost national expert on zoo pest control is hampered by the fact that no one really wants to think about that subject, even people who really really should. People want magic solutions when the real answer is to build things properly the first time.

I may be listening to WTFpod too much.

Or maybe it's just the winter (such as it is).

Well that went nowhere, thanks for coming with me! Read Jesse Thorn's article: http://transom.org/?p=24153

I'm not leaving LiveJournal any time soon, I've decided. Not because the platform is all that great, mainly because it's what I'm used to, and I haven't seen anything out there, blog-wise, that blows it away. It was nice to read that this journal would be missed, also, thanks for that.

I know you're all quite web-savvy, and I don't have to tell you about Bible Bars, but are you aware of the breakthrough science of intestinal ozonation? Clicking that link will also remind you that oxygen is obtained by breathing, and that you can't get more by drinking a liquid with oxygen dissolved in it. And thank goodness for that, or else we would get higher carbon dioxide levels from drinking soda pop and everyone would die every time they drank a can of coke.

But House of David is also selling Bible Bread, which is advertised only as "unleavened" and "tasty," and they don't inply that it gives you superpowers, so I'm tempted to try it. Not that I don't want superpowers, but I if a company suggests to me that their product will give me superpowers, who knows what other weird lies they may be telling? Jesus, there could be scale insect excrement in there (scroll down about 2/3 of the page to find what Exodus 16:14 has to do with scale insect excrement)

But royal jelly gives the queen bee her superpowers, right?. But if it worked, why wouldn't it catch on, and then everybody would have superpowers? That would be cool! And all it takes is some bug barf! But it doesn't.

But I have no right to beat on these people and their bizarre taste for insect cack, and their belief that they are better than everyone else. After all, every culture on earth eats some nasty crap that no one else would touch (want some haggis? sheep's eye? cheese? roasted cockroach? scrapple? bird's nest soup? uncooked fish?) and thinks they are better than everyone else (exhibit A: all of human history). To be honest, I have mixed feelings. I covet their whole grain snacks, but I distrust their belief in magic pills and ingested oxygen. But no one is holding a gun to my head and making me buy these things, or look at their website. Besides, if they were, I wouldn't be afraid--because I have superpowers. I got them from fermented grains.
