Total Fun With Highly Invigorating Cold Water Dips & Showers
Back in April or so of 2012, I thought I’d hold out the cold water therapy idea, because I’d been doing it myself for a long time at the gym in 45 degree a coupla times per week for 10-15 minutes. Thing is, the cold water dip was always love/hate for me and I knew...…Read More

Free the Maggot Update, Part 2 (The Anthony Colpo Connection)
Serendipitously, Anthony Colpo published a highly political sort of piece last night, and it was right on the heels of my own far less substantial, largely jeering post. His, again: Why are Humans So Damn Clueless and Superficial? I’m referenced in it. I do my political/social schtick all the time here, so it’s no big. Always suspected...…Read More
Free the Maggots; Just Another Land of the Free Update
Free the Animal gets nowhere. Land of the Free…? Nowhere. So, we’re equal. How about: you voters are a bunch of maggots? Shouldn’t you be Royally ashamed of your generally bad behavior? I do doubt it, but let’s give it a shot anyway. Or, click away right now and save yourself. Before I give that a shot,...…Read More

My Book Gets Another 1-Star Review
I love the Internets. A recent 1-Star Amazon review of my book content, all the chapters. By S.K. “book addict” This man is a mess and I gave up on the book. He’s eating hot dogs and corn tortillas but writing about a paleo diet? WTF?!! Then he calls women the “c” word because they...…Read More
Pan De Higo (Spanish); Je Reviens (French)
Good thing I picked ripe fig fruit yesterday, ahead of my bird & squirrel backyard friends. They get enough. Indeed! I’m virtually scrounging, here. That tree just won’t give up daily production. And since I gave helpings of my last batch to my Mexican housekeepers who’ve been with me 19 years, I’m scrounging again. Sidebar:...…Read More
Pan De Higo (Spanish Fig Bread)
Nope, no flour in it of any kind, just as there’s no flour in breadfruit. You can often pick some up at specialty markets and as well, all my local Whole Foods stock it. Here’s what it is and how the Spaniards make it. You can Google for recipes, like this one. So, I have a...…Read More
I’ve Got A [Gut] Feeling, But I’m Not Going to Eat Anything
Another couple of tabs I've had open in my browser since the weekend: Gut feelings: the future of psychiatry may be inside your stomach Fasting or Caloric Restriction, What Holds Greater Promise as a Means of Life Extension? Dot connecting. My favorite thing to do, and the more diverse the sources, the better. I think I'm at my relative best as simply an integrator and synthesizer. Everyone else can pretend they know shit they don't; be…Read More

FTA Super Quick Hit: Mylee Cyrus and the MTV Awards
Don’t really give a shit that Will Smith & Family were actually NOT shocked…SHOCKED! about Mylee Cyrus’ very shitty trailer trash performance. SHOCKED! Contrary to earlier reports, turns out that was for Lady Gaga, so one might say ‘Amazed,’ or something like that…because Gaga has her well established gig, is a mature woman…and… seems to me,...…Read More
Why I Do It and Will Always Do It…
I try to keep my own hang gliding videos to 3 minutes max or so, and I’m only about a week off my last flight. …Some clips of launch, a bit of scrappage, then the landing. This one is 22 minutes. I was, like: ‘no way am I going to watch that longz.’ Try just a coupla...…Read More
Can We Just Cut to The Inconvenient Truth? Religion, Like Its State Bedfellow, Breeds Stupidity Even Among the Otherwise Intelligent
That’s really the takeaway from both of these pieces, open in Chrome tabs since Saturday. Judgy Bitch: Richard Dawkins hands feminists a fabulous argument and not one of them touches it. I wonder why not? Richard Dawkins: Calm reflections after a storm in a teacup For you religious Paleos (by which I mean, in the conventional sense...…Read More
A Type II Diabetic Rings in About How Resistant Starch and Eating Things Cold Has Regulated His Blood Suger, Even Eating SAD
Well, if LCers and LC Paleos are too afraid of all starch—even starch that's digested by gut bacteria into short chain fatty acids (beloved saturated fat)—and thus too lame to help diabetics for their own ignorance—as we saw in comments in the last RS post—then I'll just have to take a SAD eater.Read More
The Ghost of Spiro Agnew: “Love It Or Leave It” Is a Stupid Bromide and People Should Know Better
In comments yesterday, Spiro Agnew rose from the grave again, just as he’s been doing several times per day since 1996. “America, love it or leave it.” I’ve never, ever met a single non-anarchist in 20 years who had the faintest idea where that bromide originated. Yep: that shitbag, bribe taking USVP to the shitbag...…Read More
“Land of the Free” Update: A Few Unbelievable Quick Hits
The essential thing to keep in mind is that none of this is new. Zero. It’s only perception and awareness by the generally blind and ignorant—the 99% (or, voter-mouth-breathers). The sky isn’t falling. Brutalized, coercive threat and execution against those who really create the values people not only need to survive in civilization, but are...…Read More

Ancestral Health Society: Please tell me it was a joke about Ben Greenfield with his magical decoder bracelet, complete with snake oil drops
There it was, at 1:00 pm on Friday last, at the Ancestral Health Symposium, in Atlanta.
