Focusing On Fiber
One of the things that disturbs me the most about low-fat, no-fat, low-carb, no-carb diets is that they focus on what you shouldn’t eat. There are some “high protein” diets out there, but they also focus a great deal of energy on what you shouldn’t eat. I’d like to discuss fiber, something you SHOULD eat, in high quantity. The low-carb community often glosses over how vitally important fiber is, because fiber is – you guessed it – a carbohydrate. And that was one of my biggest issues with the low-carb craze (which has, thankfully, fallen out of favor), is that it focused on cutting out the very foods you need the most, such as fruits and vegetables! … Read entire article »

1990, The Sundays, and My Bittersweet Summer
It was 1990 and I was killing time in a record store, back in the days when they actually seemed to have them. And not even in a mall. I was shopping for CD’s, back in a day when people actually had those too. Wow. So as any good record store will do, they played new and random music in the store for shoppers to hopefully like and buy.

Online Memories: My Day As A Monster
It was Fall 2001. And before the World of Warcraft, there was Everquest, at the time it was THE online game of choice. I never really used the Everquest test servers, but I heard talk of a new feature coming out called an MPC, or Monster Player Character. “Project M” it was called. As I recall, this feature actually went live for a day or two. If you were one of the lucky few lucky enough to see this fun fiasco, you certainly remember it. … Read entire article »
