obama

I think Obama was having trouble raising money from gay donors so he sent Joe Biden to say something gay-friendly. That wasn't enough so he made a statement the he "personally" supported gay marriage. But the states had to fight it out. That's pretty lame when you are the President of the United States. He was on" The View"...

Got A Monkey On My Back

tea

Its name is Camellia sinensis. Every morning I wake up resolved not to drink any more of the leaf. But every morning I break my promise. It's all the more strange because I drink decaffeinated tea. Apparently there is something in it that I like, and a little caffeine. I think it has a negative effect on several health issues I'm dealing with. ...

Heard an amazing cover of Bob Dylan's "Like a Rolling Stone" by Jimi Hendrix on the radio.

I got a lot of stuff done, down the list, made two healthy meals, post office, bank (was there for over an hour), sensitive phone call, could not do at home, broiling in the sun by the side of the road in a payphone-poor suburb. It's a planned...

Went to a new hairdresser. Did he ever not work out. Too many cut corners, too low rent. I guess I have my limits. The experience seemed dicey but my hair looks o.k.

Then I tried to buy some health food but that wasn't a good experience. Everyone is so dysfunctional. Now I'm at the Apple store where there is a young adult male next to me...

How did she know?

I was in the supermarket. I had stashed some produce bags in my pocket to divvy up some carrots. For some reason, an elderly lady asked me for a plastic bag because she couldn't make it over to where they were. I produced one from my pocket like a magician. She told me she had just had surgery so I helped her open the bag and load it up with fruit. ...

The Mystery of the Matzohs

Posted by Luminosity , in Personal 22 April 2012 -

· 31 views

It was sunset on a Friday in April. I was craving flat bread for some reason. Two restaurants in the mall had it but would not sell it separately. I went to sit down and eat my salad. There was only one empty table. Someone had left a lot of stuff there. There was a bottle of water, half a wedge of Brie, most of a box of matzohs and some Whole Foods...

money

There's a male celebrity who is known for hitting and mistreating women, and taking a lot of drugs. Even by the flexible standards of the entertainment industry, he eventually went too far and was fired. This wasn't easy to accomplish. Up until that moment he had committed multiple felonies without any serious jail time. This was probably the...

I got something important done today. I didn't pass part of the test but the guy passed me anyway. I wasn't expecting that but then I got an official picture that looks absolutely horrible, but I'm legal. So I came out of there, surprised, relieved, and nonplussed all at once, into the suburban sunlight. I came to a different part of town...

Does Ribose Cause Kidney Failure, Ketosis, Acidosis, and Proteinuria?

ribose

I've run across online accounts of young people who developed health problems after taking Ribose. They were on low carb diets at the time. Symptoms include proteinuria (protein in the urine), foamy urine, and swelling of the abdominal area.
