Ouch

 How old am I?  I am "got up this morning, sneezed and pulled a muscle" old.  


Seriously, this is too much.  


In response to this old age thing that is starting to annoy me I'm going back to the Paleo diet I was on for a short time a few years ago.  It's been three days so far, today is day four, and I feel OK, other than pulling a muscle just sneezing.  :-)  So far I'm down 5 pounds and generally feel pretty good.  Last time I tried this I did it sort of halfway, I never was really serious about it and I also did not pay attention to the lab results that told me to avoid:

Gluten
Dairy
Eggs

I said OK about the Gluten, for a while, but the cheese and the eggs?  NO WAY!  This time around I'm going all in, but I'm not thinking so much about what I can't have as just focusing on making what I can have taste good.

I can eat any meats, fish, shellfish, fruits and vegetables.  I'm not having any grains or legumes (beans), including rice and corn which are technically "gluten free" grains.  Also out is anything that comes in a box.  If it's not cut from a dead animal or a part of a plant I'm not touching it. :-)

I am also going to be doing some interval exercises, squats, walking, push ups, light weights and such as well.

I'll update my feelings about this periodically, so far I notice no urge to snack and have not been hungry much at all.

Bonus Grandkids Section.

Today Maximus took Momo for a walk around the block by himself for the first time.  He's 9 years old so I guess he can go outside on his own now. :-)

NBC anti-life?

I would boycott NBC, if I ever watched it that is. I actually never watch anything on the old line networks, NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX. Everything I watch is on the cable only stations... do they still broadcast over the air? Ah well, this story is about the fact that it seems NBC refused to air an ad put together by some Catholic outfit that features an embryo and all of the hardships it faced in early life ending up with the revelation that they were talking about Obama. Here is the ad , check it out and see how unoffensive it is. Like I said, if I watched them I'd quit now. :-/

Wikileaks and police state censorship

I saw an article today on SF Gate about some nit wit Bush appointed Federal Judge ordering a website I'd never heard of called Wikileaks shut down because they were publishing some bank documents from some corrupt Swiss bank. The amusing thing is that they can't actually do it! Even more amusing is that this just draws attention to the site and makes it that much more visible, yay idiot goons! :-) There are mirror sites all over the world and it's almost impossible for thuggish police state goons to figure out how to close off all of the leaks :-) One mirror site is here: http://wikileaks.be/wiki/Wikileaks The US site they tried to close down is still here: http://88.80.13.160 "Cowardice asks the question, 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question, 'Is it politic?' Vanity asks the question, 'Is it popular?' But, conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?' And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe,...

Child Driven Education

Here is a Ted Talk with Sugata Mitra on Child Driven Education... very unschooling-like I think.  :-)  I've seen videos of him before, this is an update on his research on letting groups of kids learn on the internet, mostly without any supervision at all.  Posted via email from The Angry Gnome
