#30daysofnewthings: exotic fruits, pants, and poses

Posted on March 11, 2015

As I’ve been bringing yoga into my #30daysofnewthings challenge, there’s something I’ve been avoiding: Anything where I’m relying on the upper body strength I don’t have to keep me from a supercharged faceplant fueled by the added weight of my graceless legs and man-like torso. “Day Four – I’ve never been permanently paralyzed before!” #newthings (Dear glob, please don’t let that be the price for my wanderlust and sense of..

Did the cops saving this baby sense a higher power? Or power of suggestion?

Posted on March 11, 2015

Ever heard a disembodied voice? The kinda turn-around-and-no-one’s-there experience that sets all your flesh follicles agog? A buncha cops trying to save a woman from her car which’d gone into an icy river sure did. After a fisherman spotted the car and summoned the authorities, the four officers arrived. And, as each confirm, they all are certain they heard a woman calmly shouting “help” to them as they approached –.. Read More

Braingames: Well he didn’t say I was wrong..

Posted on March 11, 2015

I’m not coordinated enough yet to eat soup and read simultaneously. Like the guy above, I can’t even manage to remember things fresh out the nuker are magma level hot. Which is ironic, I suppose, considering that my too-stupid-to-multitask non-quality drives me to hunt for something brainy on T.V. if I’m outta good documentaries to watch. Thus, lately, my go-to’s been “Brain Games”. The commercials give me just enough time.. Read More

#30daysofnewthings: New trail and metayoga

Posted on March 11, 2015

“How far’d you go? A couple miles?” The fisherman I’d just waved to asked me this from a distance as I was finishing up my run. He and his buddy had been standing at the side of the dock since before I parked my car, stretched, and set out on a new trail. It was set to be day three of my #30daysofnewthings challenge. A new trail may sound kinda.. Read More

Snack yourself tan: how I went chameleon with caratenoids.

Posted on March 9, 2015

If you haven’t noticed by now, I like going Dexter’s Laboratory on my own person. And since drugs aren’t part’a that equation, I instead do things like ab challenges, my #30daysofnewthings challenge, and… now… the caratenoid diet. I actually started this back toward the end of January… and I figure now’s as good a time as any to record some conclusions. So here it goes: the chameleon caratenoid diet: BACKGROUND:.. Read More

#30daysofnewthings challenge: climb a tree

Posted on March 9, 2015

“Really? Is this the most creative thing you can come up with? Try a new fruit?” I mean, it’s on the list – but more of a last resort kinda thing. And I was only two days into my 30-days-of-new-things experimental challenge yesterday at 5:00 P.M. I’d gotten a late start on my afternoon jog, and despite the fact that it was warm (for this time of year) and sunny.. Read More

Wanna live to 200 like this guy? All you have to do is nothing!

Posted on March 9, 2015

Well I knew that meditation could make ya live longer. But 200 years? That’s what the Buddhists are claiming of this mummified monk found a couple months ago. He was stashed away in the home of some dude planning to sell him on the black market. And while I’m not sure exactly what you’d do with an overpriced Bodhisattva who’s passed on, my guess is (if that’s your religion and.. Read More

P.C. postural pain – and the wizard ways to eradicate it

Posted on March 9, 2015

A little less than a year ago, I was standing in Dick’s Sporting Goods trying to decide if $40 was “worth it”. Worth not suffering the kinda posture that turns me into a shuffling 30-year-old geriatric, that is. And that’s what the standard foam roller would cost me to DIY style work out the kinks I’d caused myself with rotten posture. “Why bother?” I wondered, reasoning that “well if I.. Read More

You can thank this nice black lady that you don’t have polio.

Posted on March 9, 2015

This is kinda nuts. Mrs. Lacks was never lacking in the fertility department – she had a shiz ton of kids before she passed on. But I wonder if she knew that she’d give birth to something even bigger? Like the imminent precursor to polio vaccines and cloning capabilities? With her actual cervix, no less? She wasn’t some scientist or patient volunteer, either. She was a mother, hard worker at.. Read More
